Moderators

There are senior members on the forums who serve as Moderators. These volunteers keep the board organized and moving.
Moderators are authorized to: (in order of increasing severity)
Move posts to the correct forums. Many times, members post in the wrong forum. These off-topic posts may impede the normal operation of the forum.
Edit posts. Moderators will edit posts that are offensive or break any of the House Rules.
Delete posts. Posts that cannot be edited to comply with the House Rules will be deleted.
Restrict members. This is one of the last punishments before a member is banned. Restrictions may include placing all new posts in a moderation queue or temporarily banning the offender.
Ban members. The most severe punishment. Three or more moderators or administrators must agree to the ban for this action to occur. Banning is reserved for very severe offenses and members who, after many warnings, fail to comply with the House Rules. Banning is permanent. Bans cannot be removed by the moderators and probably won't be removed by the administration.


The Rules

1. Warez, copyright violation, or any other illegal activity may NOT be linked or expressed in any form. Topics discussing techniques for violating these laws and messages containing locations of web sites or other servers hosting illegal content will be silently removed. Multiple offenses will result in consequences. File names are not required to discuss your issues. If filenames are copyright then do not belong on these forums & will be edited out or post removed. Picture sample attachments in posts must not include copyright infringement.

2. Spamming and excessive advertising will not be tolerated. Commercial advertising is not allowed in any form, including using in signatures.

3. There will be no excessive use of profanity in any forum.

4. There will be no racial, ethnic, or gender based insults, or any other personal attacks.

5. Pictures may be attached to posts and signatures if they are not sexually explicit or offensive. Picture sample attachments in posts must not include copyright infringement.

6. Remember to post in the correct forum. Take your time to look at other threads and see where your post will go. If your post is placed in the wrong forum it will be moved by a moderator. There are specific Gnutella Client sections for LimeWire, Phex, FrostWire, BearShare, Gnucleus, Morpheus, and many more. Please choose the correct section for your problem.

7. If you see a post in the wrong forum or in violation of the House Rules, please contact a moderator via Private Message or the "Report this post to a moderator" link at the bottom of every post. Please do not respond directly to the member - a moderator will do what is required.

8. Any impersonation of a forum member in any mode of communication is strictly prohibited and will result in banning.

9. Multiple copies of the same post will not be tolerated. Post your question, comment, or complaint only once. There is no need to express yourself more than once. Duplicate posts will be deleted with little or no warning. Keep in mind a forum censor may temporarily automatically hold up your post, if you do not see your post, do not post again, it will be dealt with by a moderator within a reasonable time. Authors of multiple copies of same post may be dealt with by moderators within their discrete judgment at the time which may result in warning or infraction points, depending on severity as adjudged by the moderators online.

10. Posts should have descriptive topics. Vague titles such as "Help!", "Why?", and the like may not get enough attention to the contents.

11. Do not divulge anyone's personal information in the forum, not even your own. This includes e-mail addresses, IP addresses, age, house address, and any other distinguishing information. Don´t use eMail addresses in your nick. Reiterating, do not post your email address in posts. This is for your own protection.

12. Signatures may be used as long as they are not offensive or sexually explicit or used for commercial advertising. Commercial weblinks cannot be used under any circumstances and will result in an immediate ban.

13. Dual accounts are not allowed. Cannot explain this more simply. Attempts to set up dual accounts will most likely result in a banning of all forum accounts.

14. Video links may only be posted after you have a tally of two forum posts. Video link posting with less than a 2 post tally are considered as spam. Video link posting with less than a 2 post tally are considered as spam.

15. Failure to show that you have read the forum rules may result in forum rules breach infraction points or warnings awarded against you which may later total up to an automatic temporary or permanent ban. Supplying system details is a prerequisite in most cases, particularly with connection or installation issues.

Violation of any of these rules will bring consequences, determined on a case-by-case basis.


Thank You! Thanks for taking the time to read these forum guidelines. We hope your visit is helpful and mutually beneficial to the entire community.

Default 4.1.10 and 4.2.2 not launching under Fedora

Hi all,

I installed Fedora in early September and have been using Limewire under Linux without problem since then. However, I haven't been able to launch last two releases; LimeWire never gets beyond the splash screen and the "Loading messages..." text and I have to kill the process on the command line. I've tried both the installer and .tgz packages, and as a last resort, just renamed the .limewire directory, all to no avail. I have Java 1.5 installed under Fedora Core 3.

Anything else I can do to determine what is going wrong?

interesting. try issuing the following command:

kill -QUIT <process #> from a different console. That will print out some debugging info which can help us find out what's going on.

Mod, please move this thread to the linux forum.

Looks like there's a problem with your save directory, and there's a deadlock in showing the error message about it. Oddly enough, it looks like the deadlock is occuring in a single trace. It locks the AWTTreeLock and then is waiting on locking it again.

The problem may be that I have my shared/ directory in the root, because I have it on a separate partition -- a separate drive actually. However, this directory obviously has write permission, so that shouldn't be an issue.

Default strange AWT deadlocking itself on X11

Isn't it strange that the same thread has both acquired the lock, and is now waiting for itself the same lock?

- waiting on <0xcd970220> (a java.awt.Component$AWTTreeLock)
at java.lang.Object.wait(Unknown Source)
at java.awt.Dialog.show(Unknown Source)
- locked <0xcd970220> (a java.awt.Component$AWTTreeLock)

It looks like an unexpected behavior in AWT, probably coming from a compatibility issue between AWT (a core component of Java2D for graphic display) and the version of X11 (XFree86 or X.org?) running on your Redhat installation, possibly because some normally mandatory display event was captured by some tools.

Do you use the regular (RedHat supported) version of the X-Window display server?

So, if you use X.org instead of XFree86, you should know that this is a split from the historic XFree86 branch, which is still in beta, and not widely tested. I suggest you reinstall XFree86 instead if you have changed for a beta version of X.org (Java2D has still not been tested on the X.org implementation, given that XFree86 was until very recently the top windowing system for Linux on PC desktops).

Do you use some custom desktop window manager, instead of the standard Redhat-supported desktop?

Do you use some mouse-enhancing tools, that capture the mouse and don't release it correctly, so that the windowing tree of your desktop gets garbled?

Yes, I am using the standard packages included in the official Fedora distribution.

Nope, just Gnome.

No, nothing of the kind. Perhaps it is a Gnome problem, but how would I be able to determine this?
