Fedora :: Extremely Vague Bugs: Where To Report
Jun 30, 2010
I've been running Fedora since core 6, am on 13 now, always with KDE. I upgraded but also did fresh installs.I'm typing, in oo.org, Kile or Kate. Suddenly, without warning, the File menu is selected - mind you, without me clicking the mouse or pressing alt-F or anything. Just typing text.
Or how about this: I'm typing again. All of a sudden the direction changes from the normal left to right to the Hebrew right to left. I think I only pressed ctrl-s to save... Did I?
I can't reproduce any of it, although it seems to be related to Kate based editors and using alt-tab to switch windows. Like the alt key hangs digitally. Is it Linux, Fedora, KDE or Kate? (it can't be the computer, this has happened to me on several distinct machines) Where do I report this, to get a fix?

How does one report bugs in the Ubuntu Documentation wiki? For instance, this page [URL] say there is a a tree entry /apps/gnome-system-tools/users yet I do not see any gnome-system-tools entry.It would be preferable that any Ubuntu documentation about gui related interface also list a how to do the change via command line, since that is more reliable than the ever changing gui stuff.

I find that the FC 15 Xfce spin will save the user's current session except that it doesn't save what is being done with the Lyx editor. Under FC 15 Gnome 3, I found that after I added the minimize-maximize-close buttons to the top of windows, that some of the windows in Lyx (such as the one that appears for View as DVIPS) didn't respond to those buttons. (I don't remember whether Gnome 3 saved the Lyx session and I've gotten rid of Gnome 3 now.)

I'm a windows to linux convert and found ubuntu to be a very friendly system to work with. So far i have been testing different distros and all of them are ubuntu based (linux mint, ubuntu puppy, xubuntu, ubuntu) but as I test them all out, i find something peculiar
I have a wide screen monitor and even the latest driver of s3 pro savage ddr does not even support wide screen on windows. i have tested ubuntu and xubuntu as well as linux mint, all of which dont have wide screen drivers. other forums and question sites say it might be unsupported by the hardware. but when it came to the ubuntu puppy, i found that it had wide screen support. how could this be? is there a generic driver for it? i am totally sure it's wide screen. the circles are circles and not ovals.

My Automatic Bug Reporting Tool has been notifying me of bugs when closing Firefox and VLC. It does not say what to do with the bugs, or any other description thereof. It just gives the status that the bugs are not reported. What do I do with this, please?

I set up an NFS server on my home computer, all very simple add a line to /etc/exports, run exportfs -a, all worked well and as expected. Through no fault with Fedora, bugs in the client computer made me abort the entire experiment. (long story that you don't want to know) Undo all the config, reboot. However I'm now left with an issue that's not earth shattering. Every time I reboot my computer a /Public directory is created in my home directory, this is obviously a legacy from the original NFS setup. I've trawled through log files, looked at config files in /var/lib/nfs, but can find nothing that might be generating this /Public directory at boot time.

I just built some machines with the Intel 82574L gigabit ethernet chip, loaded Fedora 14, and discovered a problem with the e1000e driver dying after a few minutes. A little time spent perusing the web told me that the same driver had problems in Fedora 12 and Fedora 13 as well. Congrats to Fedora for the hat trick.As of kernel 2.6.35.10-74.fc14.x86_64, e1000e driver 1.0.2-k4 still had bugs.[URL]

I run F12. Since some days my laptop has become very sluggish. In Mozilla, switching between the tabs takes like seconds instead of fraction of a second. Also minimizing and mximizing windows takes long. Switching between the windows too takes long. Now I can't see the cursor while typing this post. I disabled some services that start at the boot time. I'm posting a list of services that are on in the runlevel 5 as that's the one I use.

Click on scrollbar. Drag down. Watch text crawl by in fits and starts. Don't even think about using the scroll wheel. And this, on a one page RTF document. With no special characters or images or anything.
I tried the instruction here: [URL] It did nothing. How can I make Abiword usable? It doesn't have to be lightning fast, all I want is for it to scroll at the same speed and with the same responsiveness as all my other applications.

my installed windows makes full use of the 32mbit connection. in fedora i get between 10kbit and 100kbit.this is very annoying especially while browsing the net or using the package manager to do updates or download new software. what could be the problem and how could i solve it?
i very much like the look and feel of fedora 15, but this just makes it unusable on a daily basis.

I just want to find out if anybody else is having a similar issue before I start trying to disable services one by one. When I boot in to F15, everything runs fine up to were it starts loading the CUPS module then it hangs for about 2 to 3 minutes, the next thing to load is Samba shares. So it could be either of these or it could have nothing to do with them. Just to add that I made 100% sure that all my samba shares mount fine and are online and have no shares mounting in my fstab file.

I've been having problems with pdf files made using latex (dvi->ps->pdf). I found a reported bug in bugzilla by searching the error message and made a comment. The 'problem' is that the bug is filed under evince, but I'm pretty sure it is in ghostscript. Should I file another bug in the ghostscript section, or will the clever people at bugzilla work it out once they get round to this particular bug (it's marked as low priority)?
The bug report can be found here[URL]..The bug is more annoying than anything else, so any advice is welcome.

I finnaly put my hand on a mini-itx board with the AMD E-350 2 cores Zacate CPU with ASROCK E350M1 E350 A50M R with 4 GB ram. I installed fedora 14 64 bits first, than 32 bits lastly and in both case, linux fedora 14 reported only 2.6GB of my 4GB ram. On the bios, I read 4096MB with 384MB shared.
I booted a cd with memtest86 V4.20, and it reported 3709MB of ram, that seems ok. under linux fedora 14: free -m, show: 2637MB, under monitor, we can read, 2.6GiB

I don't know what bugzilla wants to know. I tried to create a new report, but I failed at the first page/question. THe page ask me to enter a classification. But I don't know want that could be. I check multible times but I got always just a big red EM. What's to enter at 'named tag' and at 'to bugs'?

I don't need to be advised if a printer job failed on my screen. I am sitting beside the printer. I know someone needs that feature but how do I turn it off.What software is responsible for putting a printer icon up and then giving me this output? And will that software accept a request to change the default behavior?

just installed Fedora 13 on a pentium 4 laptop by Dell, with 1 Gb RAM.
As I opt for Compiz, it cannot start, there is a black pop up saying Crash, and some numbers follow. How can this be fixed?
Should I install KDE?
Is there an update of software?
I can opt for Compiz but worry that it will be faulty. That is the second attempt also produced the crash warning pop up but gave me the option of keeping it or going back after about twenty seconds, with the figures on the screen. I played it safe. Also can I try it, and manually go back?
Error report shows Compiz killed by Signal 11 SIGSEGV, this was added after post 9.

Where does one look in terms of diagnostics after a system lockup and hard reset? For example, one of my computers, running Fedora 14 i686, has taken to locking up quite a bit lately. My only way out is a hard reset. Now, once the thing is booted back up I'd like to try to figure out where the problem lies. Where do I look? Will any of the log files reveal anything relevant to me? If so, what sort of things would I be looking for. Keywords?
This same box also locked up when I had Fedora 14 x86_64 installed. I had read that there were some issues with the newer 64 bit kernels that were causing lockups and / or extremely high loads. This is why I switched back to the 32 bit version, 2 days ago to be exact. The box gets little use. It's a toy really and not my main "daily use" computer. It is, however, running folding@home. Maybe that's where the problem is. About 15 minutes ago I called home and had my wife reset the box, then I logged in from work and stopped the folding service. I'll have to see if it locks up without folding running. Folding was running on this box when I had the 64 bit version installed also.

I've been troubleshooting this problem for several hours now and I'm out of ideas. My internet connection is fine in Windows 7 but an older computer I resurrected (AMD Athlon 1.7 GHz, 512 MB RAM, Fedora 14 Security Lab Spin) is having the stop-and-go's with its internet connection. It will work for very briefly, then it gets extremely slow, where any page I try to navigate to in Firefox 3.6 takes forever to load.I have a DSL connection and my DSL modem is connected to a Linksys WRT54G2 router. I set up a static IP in Windows but don't know how to do this yet in Fedora 14, and I need to get my internet connection working so I can troubleshoot further, but with it being so slow, I'm having to use Windows to search for problems and then switch over to the Fedora box via KVM (IOGEAR), which I also just started using. I don't think that would be related, but who knows.

have a script that will report whenever a file is copied? Some useful information would be the time/date, user, and destination whenever a file is copied. I've looked into the stat command, but it does not distinguish between copy and access.

With time, about two months, Fedora 11 became extremely slow. Working with applications is a complete hog with some applications taking 20 seconds to load.I checked and there is nothing that eats cpu% or lack of memory or zombie processes.It seems just to be FC-11 as slow.If you press enter in a terminal it takes about 3/4 of a second to scroll down !The latter clearly show serious problems.
All my rackservers run fedora and I try to standardize on mac terminals using fedora.All the other terminals with mac-mini running fc-10 are ok.This seems to be an FC-11 thing or maybe someone knows about something I overlooked?I obviously do not want to upgrade to FC12 just to find that that is also extremely slow and need to know if Fc11/12 are too slow for 1.6GHz cpu's with 2GB ram.Ubuntu ran very fast compared to FC, but i will be too time consuming to run different distros, so I want to try solve this first.

After running
Code:
nessus-fetch --register <Activation Code>
I got
Code:
nessus-update-plugins could not be found in your $PATH
When I try to run a scan on localhost I get the message "nessusd returned an empty report".
Here's the entry in nessusd.messages
Code:
[Mon May 25 00:30:03 2009][13188] user mickey.harvey : testing 127.0.0.1 (127.0.0.1) [13189]

[Mon May 25 00:30:04 2009][13188] user mickey.harvey : Kept alive connection
I would like to get the scan working and make sure that nessus is updating the plugins. I have been looking though the nessus documentation and tried searching on Goggle without any success.

I've been trying to make sense out of this error report. I get it every once in a while on startup of my machine.
Code:
Summary:
SELinux is preventing /usr/sbin/ntpd access to a leaked netlink_route_socket
file descriptor.
Detailed Description:
[ntpd has a permissive type (ntpd_t). This access was not denied.]
SELinux denied access requested by the ntpd command. It looks like this is either a leaked descriptor or ntpd output was redirected to a file it is not allowed to access. Leaks usually can be ignored since SELinux is just closing the leak and reporting the error. The application does not use the descriptor, so it will run properly. If this is a redirection, you will not get output in the netlink_route_socket. You should generate a bugzilla on selinux-policy, and it will get routed to the appropriate package. You can safely ignore this avc.
Allowing Access:
You can generate a local policy module to allow this access - see FAQ [URL]
