NetworkManager update totally screwed up networking on laptop
by Arthur Pemberton 29 Sep '08

29 Sep '08

As of a yum update to NetworkManager-0.7.0-0.11.svn4022, networking is all screwed up. I had to manually define a wired connection to get even that to show up and be enabled in the applet. Wifi was already flaky, and now I just can't get any wifi on the machine. Everything was working at least till that update as it seems to have been a PacakgeKit led update (it needed working wifi to do the update in the first place) This is a machine I setup for a friend, not my laptop. >From yum.log: Sep 28 14:39:38 Updated: 1:NetworkManager-0.7.0-0.11.svn4022.fc9.i386 Sep 28 14:39:40 Updated: 1:NetworkManager-gnome-0.7.0-0.11.svn4022.fc9.i386 Sep 28 14:39:43 Updated: 1:NetworkManager-vpnc-0.7.0-0.10.svn4024.fc9.i386 Sep 28 14:39:48 Updated: 1:NetworkManager-openvpn-0.7.0-15.svn4027.fc9.i386 >From ifconfig: ath0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:1F:3A:13:2D:4B inet6 addr: fe80::21f:3aff:fe13:2d4b/64 Scope:Link UP BROADCAST MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 RX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:0 RX bytes:0 (0.0 b) TX bytes:0 (0.0 b) eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:1B:38:F3:3A:A6 inet6 addr: fe80::21b:38ff:fef3:3aa6/64 Scope:Link UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 RX packets:330 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:254 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000 RX bytes:480050 (468.7 KiB) TX bytes:21712 (21.2 KiB) Interrupt:16 lo Link encap:Local Loopback inet addr:127.0.0.1 Mask:255.0.0.0 inet6 addr: ::1/128 Scope:Host UP LOOPBACK RUNNING MTU:16436 Metric:1 RX packets:4018 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:4018 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:0 RX bytes:201132 (196.4 KiB) TX bytes:201132 (196.4 KiB) virbr0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr B6:79:41:55:C3:91 inet addr:192.168.122.1 Bcast:192.168.122.255 Mask:255.255.255.0 inet6 addr: fe80::b479:41ff:fe55:c391/64 Scope:Link UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 RX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:29 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:0 RX bytes:0 (0.0 b) TX bytes:5203 (5.0 KiB) wifi0 Link encap:UNSPEC HWaddr 00-1F-3A-13-2D-4B-F4-1F-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00 UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 RX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:354 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:280 RX bytes:0 (0.0 b) TX bytes:16284 (15.9 KiB) Interrupt:16 -- Fedora 9 : sulphur is good for the skin ( www.pembo13.com )

DVD VOBS installed on HD, how does one start the movie?
by Dan Thurman 29 Sep '08

29 Sep '08

I have downloaded a movie onto the hard drive and I have a bunch of VOBs and all that but when I open say, VLC, how does one start? If I `open directory' it seems to find the "Welcome" "page" and plays to the end; I can select Language, etc, and return to "main", but from there it does not seem to be able to `start the movie' seamlessly. Seems at the moment, I have to select the specific VOBs in the proper order but it is not obvious. Any advice? Thanks! Dan

about update!
by 최용주 29 Sep '08

Dear. I installed the Fedora 9 (64bit), and yesterday I update the program. Then I reboot the computer then it doesn’t echo any X window. Just run the hard disk. So I want to back up my data, but it is so difficult to me. How can I figure it out? Thank you. Best regards, Yongjoo CHOI

Re: LVMs really frustrating me... lv "Not available"
by linux guy 29 Sep '08

29 Sep '08

Sorry if this is a new thread with the same title. I'm sending from a different mail client because my regular mail client is down and I can't do a reply to the existing thread. Anyhow... I'm trying to mount a logical volume to transfer data to my new laptop. I used to have a problem with duplicate volume names, but I fixed that. Now I have a problem with an LV not mounting. /usr/sbin/lvdisplay File descriptor 5 left open File descriptor 7 left open /dev/sdc: read failed after 0 of 4096 at 0: Input/output error --- Logical volume --- LV Name /dev/VolGroup00/LogVol00 VG Name VolGroup00 LV UUID FX4cpZ-JnCv-pXmG-3BW9-cHB1-ZwZG-5cP2CV LV Write Access read/write LV Status NOT available LV Size 57.38 GB Current LE 1836 Segments 1 Allocation inherit Read ahead sectors 0 Note that the LV Satus is NOT available. Thus: #mount /dev/mapper/VolGroup00-LogVol00 temp mount: special device /dev/mapper/VolGroup00-LogVol00 does not exist How do I fix this ? Thanks

Desktop AWOL
by Jonathan Allen 29 Sep '08

29 Sep '08

Hi All, I run FC2 on one of the machines inside our firewall - I just like the look and feel of it :-) Just ten minutes ago, the desktop icons and facilities disappeared mid-session. The icons and files on the desktop vanished, right-click on the desktop doesn't bring up a menu and I'm stumped. How do I get it back? The ~/Desktop directory is still there with its contents, but isn't being displayed. What on earth happened? Jonathan

fc10 and raid-10
by Bill Davidsen 29 Sep '08

29 Sep '08

The Fedora installer has insisted on requiring four drives for raid-10 install, and then not using raid-10, but rather raid-1+0 which is *NOT* the same thing. Any hope that this could be fixed in fc10, as it is a real PITA to fight a way around it and get a proper raid configured. This is a real performance issue, see linux-raid discussion in archives about this. -- Bill Davidsen <davidsen(a)tmr.com> "We have more to fear from the bungling of the incompetent than from the machinations of the wicked." - from Slashdot

Help with Reiner Csrdreader ctapi
by DB 29 Sep '08

29 Sep '08

Hallo all, I'd like some help with a card reader. I've installed the ctapi via yumex, the reader is recognised when I do lsusb. But when I try to set-up the Trustdesk software (supplied by the Austrian Government), clicking on the "automatic detection", it says there is no ctapi installed. (I tried the manual configuration, but I'm not sure of the name of the actual driver - tried the .so file in the ctapi folder - nor of the port number, so that didn't work either!) Does anyone have any idea what I need to do to make the ctapi visible to trustdesk? Thanks Dave

f9 yum update "setup" - passwd file change
by mike cloaked 29 Sep '08

29 Sep '08

After updating my system today for the first time in a week, I note that there was an update to "setup" - which created /etc/passwd.rpmnew This is quite different to the original file - What if anything needs to be done? Should the relevant lines be copied over to the original file? Or should the system not be touched?
