Re: F15 on VBox Issue 11 on Vol 88, Issue 31 reg

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi Chris, Mcgrath and Experts
Please note,ÂVirtualBox issue listed as 11 th in the issue (Vol 88-Issue 31) seems to beÂrequiring due focus because of Smolt profile numberÂcomparison. There are definite indications that this user base will increase.

ÂI wish to suggest that we need a team to focus onÂÂVirtualization with F15 as guest. This will again look at various hosts like 32bit Mac X,64 bit Mac X,Win 64,Win 32,servers and clients. The priority of focus can be driven by the Smolt profile numbers. This task would be starting point to be driven from this point towards a full fledged support. I can volunteer for few as i also contribute to and on the lists on VirtualBox dev/test/bugs team.

I leave it to your views andÂsuggestions,experts.



Thanks and regards
Richard Vijay

Would you believe I scanned the entire list of bugs against the
"kernel" component looking for this, and never thought about looking
at the "systemd" component? ÂThanks, Tom! ÂI'll patiently wait for the
new systemd.

You should be able to get it out of koji now. I wasn't having much luck
with the rc2 kernel though.

I've never used the v6 support in libvirt, so I'm guessing here, but
wlan0 is the physical interface on the host that you're running radvd
on, right? That would pick up router advertisements from the router in
your wireless LAN, if you have one.

I guess if radvd is bound to virbr0 then that interface would pick up an
address from your prefix though.

What is the output of

ip -6 addr

?

/abo

Sorry, I guess I wasn't clear. my ifcfg-wlan0 has an IPv6 address that
is supposed to be assigned to wlan0. It isn't. The kernel complains
kernel: [ Â 13.872649] ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP): wlan0: link is not ready

So, in my rc.local script I ifdown/ifup and it fixes it. At first I
thought it didn't, but I had a long running script that ended up before
that ifdown/ifup and so it wasn't taking. Now, the problem is only that
link is not ready junk.

Thank you,
Trever

Simply because tar does not store all the extended attributes. Just
limited set of them. At the moment security.capability is not among
them. Feel free to report a bugzilla against rawhide tar...

You may also consider using star... where is the support for extended
attributes present for longer time (and upstream).

Hi,

I'm not using this package and I have not checked its state before
taking the ownership (which was mistake). It doesn't work for users who
upgraded from F14 to F15 and I wasn't able to find out why exactly it
fails. There are also some bugs untouched for long time.

To sum it up, it is probably better to hand it over to someone else who
has more time and actually still uses it.

You will be surprised, but I use it with Fedora 14, 15, and now with Rawhide. It works and quite
good actually.

So, thanks for making rpm.

Check with the Xfce maintainers,
they believe it's dead upstream.

What kind of relation between Xfce maintainers and SLIM. I always thought SLIM is just display
manager, which can start whatever I want.

I agree. As virtualization technology becomes more and more involved
and frequent on users systems, particularly with advanced Linux users,
I think there needs to be a strong focus on ensuring that all releases
run in virtualized environments without any major issues. ie.
Virtualbox.

Perhaps a dedicated team among the developers who specialize in this area.

Message-ID: <BANLkTi=ab1x1zULbPp7tArsKZUshj5utiw@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1

Hi,

I'm reviewing osc and osc-source_validators (osc is Opensuse Build
Service CLI, the latter a plugin to the former).
An issue arose about helpers script location:
1) Fedora packaging guidelines suggests helpers *should go*
/usr/libexec for helpers ==> requires patching since osc search
helpers in /usr/lib
since it's not in FHS, it's almost certain that a patch won't be upstream-able
2) FHS explicitely allows shell scripts in /usr/lib
3) FHS doesn't forbid putting them in /usr/share as helpers could be
considered as "arch independent data"

There are recent packages that choose options 2 && 3 (namely, systemd
and dracut).
According to me, guidelines doesn't enforce any of these options, and
choice is left to packager/reviewer appreciation, though you may
distinguish an order of precedence.

So, what's the take of my fellow packagers on that particular matter ?

Best regards,
H.
