Dear All here is a grab bag of things I noticed trying out FC8 test 3 + current updates. Please advise if I should bugzilla any of them: 1) installer: cosmetic redraw bugs on custom partition editor page 82915/GV/... graphics 2) installer: checking "Additional Fedora Software" when behind a proxy hangs anaconda "retrieving mirrorlist" (may timeout?) 3) gdm: cannot log in when using NIS authentication pam_unix(gdm:auth): check pass; user unknown Old bugzilla https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=134393 Fix to set USENIS=yes in /etc/sysconfig/authconfig works - why doesn't it just use the rules in /etc/nsswitch.conf ? workaround: setting DISPLAYMANAGER="KDE" in /etc/sysconfig/desktop to run kdm 4) xmms KDE_Window_Open.wav ** WARNING **: Failed to open font: "-adobe-helvetica-bold-r-*-*-10-*" requires xorg-x11-fonts-75dpi.noarch to quieten this. 5) hald runs as uid 68 but this has no entry in /etc/passwd ? 6) lpstat -t lists printers in long format, even if you set BrowseShortNames Yes option: device for col@dunnet: ipp://dunnet:631/printers/col when it should be: device for col: ipp://dunnet:631/printers/col compiling a fresh cups from 1.3.3 cups.org source lists short names printers. That's all so far!
