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
Existing bugzilla: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=289281
2) installer: checking "Additional Fedora Software" when behind a proxy
hangs anaconda "retrieving mirrorlist" (may timeout?)
Making anaconda proxy aware is raised here:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=141988
And RFE here: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=125917
My filed bug: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=324801
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
My filed bug: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=324811
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.
My filed bug: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=324821
5) hald runs as uid 68 but this has no entry in /etc/passwd ?
Whoops, actually it has "haldaemon". ps -ef does not list the username
for usernames > 8 chars, so it's defined behaviour, see:
http://procps.sourceforge.net/faq.html
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.
This has had a previous incarnation:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=201800
which was fixed, apparently. Removing /var/cache/cups/remote.cache as
suggested does indeed fix the problem. However, under some circumstances
the issue still occurs, so:
My filed bug: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=324851
That's all so far!
Many thanks
Ian
