If you remove − everything from any workspace, it will disappear, so there's still only − one empty workspace at the bottom of the list. So, there's never any − need to manually add a new workspace. Pretty neat system. − − :6-) I've just installed F15 alpha in a virtualbox machine and at the first boot I − get a gnome 3 error explaining that it can't be fully initialised because 3D is − not supported. − GNOME3 is not expected to work in virtualized environments where − hardware accelerated graphics are not available. − − :7-) − From http://gnome3.org/faq.html ... − The GNOME 3 desktop does require hardware accelerated graphics − in order to provide a cutting-edge experience however, and the − complete GNOME 3 experience will only be available on computers − capable of this. Do not worry though: GNOME 3 will come complete − with a fallback interface which will provide an excellent − experience in the absence of hardware acceleration, and which − incorporates many of the improvements that can be found in GNOME − 3. − ------------------------------------------- − test Digest, Vol 85, Issue 60, Message: 7 − It's kind of a definition issue. GNOME *Shell* requires acceleration. − But technically GNOME 3 does not; the fallback interface is still − considered to be 'GNOME 3'. So you do need acceleration to get the Shell − interface that's the 'big new thing' in GNOME 3, but still, if you don't − have acceleration and you get the fallback interface instead, what − you're running is still GNOME 3. Just GNOME 3's fallback interface. − Adam Williamson − Message: 8 − In any case, VBox with 3d accelleration enables and 128MB for video memory − is not sufficient for GShell. (VBox 4.0.4) − Message: 13 − Also, on that last note, we should clarify that right now Shell doesn't − work even in virtualized environments where accelerated graphics *are* − available, e.g. VirtualBox with appropriate hardware and drivers. In − theory it should be possible to make this work, but in practice it − currently doesn't. − So there's two angles we can approach this from; make Shell run with − software GL, or fix up Shell to work with virtualized graphics − acceleration passthrough. But it's not at all guaranteed that we'll − manage either in time for f15. − :8-)test Digest, Vol 85, Issue 78 − Unable to log in after update: − '''yum downgrade rsyslog fixed it''' − − The minimum memory required is 1GB, due to anaconda changes. − When you see "populate_rootfs" in the panic, it's caused by that. − Message: 16 − don't know whether modifying services is reasonable, but what is not − reasonable is for a user no longer to be able to boot his system and not to be − able to log in after an update. For the less experienced user, this particular − problem required a reinstallation of the system. For me, a somewhat more savvy − user, this required using all the skills I had just to avoid reinstallation, − and only a tip on this list from another affected user to get me out of an − unsolvable situation. − ------------------------ − It is selinux that is denying the startup, system will work, but you need to start with it disabled :( − I downgraded rsyslog package to get a working desktop in the meantime there is a bugzilla already: − https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=689089 − − ====Update Log==== − # 178 03/12? on install − # 28 3/15 (including alacarte update) − # ?- 3/16 Yum Update (including keychain) − # 49 3/18 − # 25 3/20 without rsyslogd 5.7.9-1 fc15 (x86-64) which would cause loss of login per IRC − # 42 3/25 − − ====Smolt profiles==== − *http://www.smolts.org/client/show/pub_53cdeffa-ac52-4a4b-aa0a-66f624949472 − : Beta TC-1 VirtuaLBox 4.0.4 OSX MacBook Pro i7 − *http://www.smolts.org/client/show/pub_7cc33ba2-4c62-44fa-925e-c92fcbf7dc41 − :ACER ASPIRE ONE HD Install from booted dd USB of x86-64 .iso − − ==Sugar on a Stick == − − With this spin, you'll be able to run Sugar, which is developed by Sugar Labs and is the desktop environment used on the OLPC, directly from a Live CD or Live USB! − − − − [[File:Soas-mango-lassi.png|middle|200px|link=http://alt.fedoraproject.org/pub/alt/spins/linux/releases/14/Spins/i686/Fedora-14-i686-Live-SoaS.iso]], Mango Lassi with Sugar 0.90.3 and Fedora 14 (Laughlin)<br/>or, for brave pioneers, [[Sugar_on_a_Stick/Beta | v5 alpha with Sugar 0.92 and Fedora 15 (Lovelock)]] − − ==Make a custom Fedora image== − − '''[[Build Your Own Remix with Fedora]]''' − :click link ^ http://wiki.sugarlabs.org/go/Build_Your_Own_Remix_with_Fedora − *Use Livecd-tools and a custom kickstart file to build a custom remix.iso − − == Fedora OLPC == − The Fedora OLPC SIG, http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/OLPC, will be importing further activities into Fedora, which might later be installed using − − yum install sugar-* − :: Here's a video of the process [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QKmrtlyyCFo http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QKmrtlyyCFo] − ::CJB suggests: as root, run: yum -y groupinstall "Sugar Desktop Environment" − The command to run Sugar is as root otherwise you may get this [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=azKbRqr60Og behavior]. − − sugar-emulator − − − For more information on the new release, please refer to the announcement here: − − * http://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-olpc-list/2008-December/msg00061.html − − ==Mailing list == − − * http://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/olpc − − ==Download Mirrors and Spins== − *Mirror List: http://mirrors.fedoraproject.org/publiclist/Fedora/development/i386/ − :http://mirrors.fedoraproject.org/publiclist − *Currently building Spins: http://www.scrye.com/~kevin/fedora/2011-03-20-nightly-spins.html − *10 days of old spin builds: http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/tasks?method=createLiveCD&owner=kevin&state=all&view=tree&order=-id
