Hi,
Just installed a new x86_64 mobo (Gigabyte K8NS Pro) and a Sempron 3000+
processor and installed FC5t1.
Everything has installed fine, I've installed from extras anjuta,
bluefish, xmms, emacs and a pile of other software I had on my old box,
but have hit a few problems.
I've found that the install wasn't sane. I tried to remove dbus-qt and
had back that it referred to multiple packages. When I checked using rpm
-qa, two copies of the same rpm had been installed. I've found this has
happened with a number of packages.
Next up is sound. My old system had a Soundblaster Audigy. FC has picked
that up happily, but will not play anything through it at all. It will
play from the nForce sound on board. Is there a problem with Audigy and
FC5t1 or is it something local. system-config-soundcard reports both
cards are there, the gnome volume program reports "No volume control
elements and/or devices found"
yum is not exactly behaving itself. I've installed the livna testing rpm
and when I run yum now, all I get is
Cannot open/read repomd.xml file from repository: livna-testing
failure: repodata/repomd.xml from livna-testing: [Error 256] No more
mirrors to try
This also happens if I try and use the freshrpms repo.
Last up is a problem with both xmms and emacs (and a few other apps) in
that the fonts aren't there. I mean nothing but little square boxes!
(xmms is also not giving any sound - I imagine it's set for the audigy
card, but can't see due to little boxes instead of text).
Does anyone have any words of wisdom on how to fix these problems?
TTFN
Paul
When I had problems with mirrors like livna, I had to remove the
releasever to 4. After changing to a real version number, it worked fine.
