N wifi broke after kernel update
by Genes MailLists
Wireless stopped working after latest kernel update.
It connects and works fine using wired/
It connects and works fine with wireless until I use it for more than
a host check and a ping check.
Shortly after trying to use the connection (heavy load from chrome
restoring a lot of saved tabs) - it stops = NM thinks its ok - ifconfig
wlan0 shows it has an ip - iwconfig looks normal.
However I cannot ping the default route any longer.
/var/log/messages shows nothing iwlagn related - no oops etc
wpa_supplicant remains quiet.
rebooting produces same result with kernel is 2.6.32.10-90 (x86_64).
rmmod iwlagn; modprobe iwlagn ===> does not revive it.
Booting back to older kernel-2.6.9-70 works fine - so problem is
only in the newer kernel.
I did not see this using same computer earlier on a 802.11g network -
so it seesm its only with N.

found .parentlock files in each profile. Deleted them and got the same result ( unable to load XPCOM)

Created a new user and opened a terminal to run firefox again "unable to load XPCOM"

OK I will attack VirtualBox to see if I can glean any info about dependencies and the look at removing it

New Firefox Won't run
by Don Vogt
Yesterday I updated to kernel 2.6.32.9.70 fc12 and to firefox-3.5.9-1.fc12 and now firefox won't start. I get a notice in the bottom bar for a few seconds and then it goes blank.
I tried starting firefox in a terminal and it returned "can't load XPCOM"
I tried 'locate XPCOM' and it returned some files in /usr/lib/VirtualBox and /usr/lib/xulrunner-1.9.1/modules/XPCOMUtils.jsm
I have VirtualBox installed, but I am not trying to run firefox in virtualBox, but on the desktop.
I just found that xulrunner-1.9.1.9-1.fc12 was installed at the same time as the new firefox so I suspect the problem is between firefox and xulrunner.
I don't know what to try next. I have been using fc12 for a long time successfully for quite a while Any help or advice would be appreciated.

New Kernel will not boot
by Lawrence E Graves
I don't know how I can explain this problem. I am not able to record it
or take picture of it and there is just too much information on the
screen. If I can be told what to look for, this might help fix the
problem.
I really don't know what to do.:-S

Audio Device Permission setting
by Don KeLzy
I've been using MP3Act, an AJAX based web application that allows you
to organize your music centrally.
The thing is, I've been using the application partially being limited
to streaming mode only.Mp3act has a
jukebox mode too that allows the user to play directly from the web
page. In the installation documentation the user
needs to "set the permissions of the audio device to be writable by
the apache user".
I do not know how to do this, does anyone have any ideas or theories
regarding this???

Hi Olaniyi,
Fedora 10 is no more supported, as far as I know. But yould could try to
upgrade to F11/F12.
Kind regards
