Preupgrade fc14 to fc15 failed, kernel is not installed
by WangWentao 02 Jun '11

02 Jun '11

Hello, guys, I used preupgrade to upgrade fc14 to fc15, and everything seemed fine. But when I reboot, I just find that kernel-fc15 is not installed. There are no vmlinuz-xxx.fc15.i686 and initramfs-xxxx-fc15.i686.img in /boot, no entry about fc-15 written in grub.conf, and nothing related to fc15 is found in /lib/modules. I just try to download kernel and install it manually. But I don't know whether there are any other packages forgotten. -- Bob

Boot loader after upgrade
by Adam Tong 02 Jun '11

02 Jun '11

Hi, I upgraded my fedora 12 to 13 and then F13 to F14. I used the instructions for the desktop version in these two pages: http://www.howtoforge.com/how-to-upgrade-from-fedora-12-to-fedora-13-deskto… http://www.howtoforge.com/how-to-upgrade-from-fedora-13-to-fedora-14-deskto… Which are basically the same for both upgrades. Now in the boot loader I have 3 choices: F14, F13 and Other which is windoze. I can boot from both F13 and F14, they work properly. F13 desktop is the same know as F14 but when I check the version in terminal (uname -a), I get F13. I'm not sure what I did wrong. Is there anyway to keep only F14 and get rid of F13? Thank you

Xserver problem
by antonio montagnani 02 Jun '11

02 Jun '11

after updating to latest release of Xserver to: xorg-x11-server-Xorg-1.10.2-1. fc15.i686 I got a non-working system with a blank screen at login. System could start with nomodeset option on boot line. Using an Intel card...(it is a recursive bug in F13, F14 and now F15, that is very annoying because it is recursive, something must be done to avoid these noise.) If I revert to previous release everything is o.k. See: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=710289

Gnome shell and NVidia binary drivers
by Pasha R 02 Jun '11

02 Jun '11

I'm running F15 on Dell Latitude D620 Laptop with NVidia NVS 110M video card. So far I used it with nouveau drivers and while it ran fairly well, I experienced sometimes glitches - screen becoming white or otherwise unreadable. So, I tried to install NVidia drivers from RPMFusion. After log in, gnome shell draws its top bar, but after that it simply stops drawing anything on screen. If I launch terminal, I can see that mouse pointer changes when it goes in and out of terminal window, but window itself can not be seen. After sometime it displays "sad terminal" icon with a message "Oh no! Something has gone wrong. A problem has occurred and the system can't recover. Please log out and try again". Are NVidia drivers supported by Gnome 3? Should I file bug for this? And if yes - to RedHat bugzilla or to Gnome?

02 Jun '11

Networking Gurus: In the past I've set my firewall to use tcp_syncookies - but this prevents certain tcp options - given the current state of the internet - can someone opine on whether this should continue to be used or not? I assume ipv6 is different ..

Where is the initramfs?
by WangWentao 02 Jun '11

02 Jun '11

Hello guys, After preupgrading from fc14 to fc15, the kernel-fc15 was not installed. So I fail to boot my upgraded fedora. When I extract kernel-2.6.38.6-27.fc15.i686.rpm manually, I found that there is no initramfs-2.6.38.6-27.fc15.i686.img in the RPM archieve. I tried to create an initramfs file by dracut using livecd: * mount /media/FEDORA /dev/sda6 # the disk where I installed fedora ln -s /media/FEDORA/lib/modules/2.6.38.6-27.fc15.i686/ /lib/modules/2.6.38.6-27.fc15.i686 dracut initramfs.img 2.6.38.6-27.fc15.i686 * When I used the manully created initramfs.img to boot my system, it complained "modprobe FATAL could not load /lib/modules/2.6.38.6-27.fc15.i686/modules.dep". Actually, modules.dep file doesn't exist in kernel RPM archieve. So how can I install kernel manually? How to create a initramfs properly? Thanks, any advices will be appreciated! -- Bob

libreoffice and NFS
by Ed Greshko 02 Jun '11

02 Jun '11

F15/64 bit. Has anyone else tried opening a document in libreoffice when the document in on an NFS file system? It reports that the document is locked by "user unknown" and will offer to open the document read-only. It will also fail to save the document on the NFS file system. However, if I run /usr/lib64/libreoffice/program/soffice.bin directly, it is OK.... Nothing found in bugzilla Thanks, Ed
