There is a bug in Fedora 15 with Bluetooth so it is not enabled by default. It took me quite awhile to figure out how to enable it.

Today I stumbled upon Magic_SysRq_key. Basically, it's allows the user to perform various low level commands regardless of the system's statee.g.Alt+SysRq+b will reboot the system without syncing or unmounting.(SysRq is Print on most systems.)I see the point the use for kernel hackers and such, which compile their own kernels anyway, but why is this enabled by default?

I'm pretty much a novice with Linux right now, so I know the problem most likley is that I've done something wrong. I did install Compiz, but it wont do anything.

this and well i just downloaded Fusion 14.1. (which is base on Fedora) Everything seems to be working right now except for the wireless....Im running a Dell 1501 with BCM 4311 or 12 something like that. Anyway, I have now idea what is going on as to why my wireless does not work. Im not very good at the command line so i would need step by step instructions on what to do

View 3 Replies View RelatedI was trying to install and run Compiz fusion with fedora 12. I downloaded all the packages etc using both the gui and terminal according to some guides. When I click the desktop effects button, it says 3d is not enabled, however the guide I followed said to enter glxgears (or something to that effect) and if it came up with 3d gears then 3d was enabled...I am very confused. There was an application I ran after downloading/installing some packages that caused the screen to go white and I had to reboot. I read in another forum this may have something to do with my drivers...gotta check my graphics card specs, will post when I find them.

I added adobe repo from their website and installed the repo via KPackagekit.
It even installed flash plugin, but now after reboot evrytime I do yum check-update it just freezes indefinately(altough it does show that loaded presto plugin message)
And if i rename adobe repo filename(from /etc/rum.repos.d) to something else YUM works perfectly fine!

View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm struggling with my computer to get it to run a Windows 7 x64 machine as domU with VGA passthrough using Xen and Fedora 14 as dom0.
The problem is that when I enable IOMMU in BIOS, it simply freezes during boot. If booting with the dom0 pvops kernel via Xen it stops at the "IOMMU enabled" message. If I boot the regular unpatched kernel without the Xen; all I see is naught but a blinking cursor at the upper left corner.
I tried booting from the Fedora 14 liveCD and the lubuntu 10.04 liveCD and they booth freeze in a simlar fashion afer I get past their bootloaders.
The Windows 7 partition boots just fine and I can do all sorts of stuff in it (such as conducting computationally intensive tasks) without problems.
I just fresh installed Fedora 11, and tried to connect via ethernet. I connected the cable and connection was started (in the network managed the two gray circled turned green) but then instead of connecting me the connection was aborted. I am behind a router if it helps and made sure eth0 is enabled. PS this is the output of "service network start":

In Xorg.0.log, if you have an extension disabled in the configuration file, you will see: (**) Extension DAMAGE disabled In the first few lines ... however, later on you see (II) Initializing built-in extension DAMAGE So which is it? Is there a memory map or something I can dump and view to see which extensions are actually loaded into the X server? Is there a delineation between "disabled/enabled" and "initialized"? OK I found it:
xdpyinfo -queryExtensions | awk '{print; if (NF<=1) exit;}'
I just installed Fedora 13 on my desktop computer and ran into the same problems I did when I tried to install which was i could connect to a network but couldn't access the internet. I decided to install Fedora 14 since I already installed it on my laptop. I'm still running into the same issue, I can connect to my network but cannot connect to the internet using my PCI NIC or onboard NIC. Networking is enabled and I'm getting a IP address from my router. I ran "lspci" and it shows me both network cards which, please correct me if I'm wrong, makes me think that the drivers are installed.
I'm also curious if the VNC client/server could be used through a WAN. I would like to remote into my computer at home when I'm not there and see the gui. I had SSH installed at one point but it was just text. If there is better program please let me know. why I would have Services on my laptop but not on my desktop? Both computers are running the same version. Both cards are enabled and set to connect automatically. I can get a IP with both NICs. I only have one plugged in at a time.
I have a batch rename task and I find the 'rename' command in Ubuntu and Fedora is different.In Ubuntu, rename is written in Perl and has regexp support. Is there anyway to install it on Fedora?

View 11 Replies View RelatedI decided that I'd torture myself and try to get a server up and running with SELinux fully enabled. I so far have figured out virtual hosting, vsftpd, and SSH to work with it nicely, but I can't figure out what to do to get AWstats to be viewable through a browser with SELinux enabled. This is what I get from /var/log/messages:

I have a Biostar TA785GE which as I understand it, has a Realtek 8111DL on-board.
Booting with F11 32-bit DVD, and the F12 Live CD crashes before any user input, with indecipherable text on-screen (text mode, not X11).
Symptoms were the same with the Fedora 11 32-bit installation DVD, the Fedora 12 Live 32-bit CD and the CentOS 64-bit install DVD.
Booting with "linux text" mode (w/CentOS DVD) shows a kernel panic in ":r8169:rtl8169_init_one+0x369/0x9d4" from "pci_device_probe+0x100/0x180". I'll have to shutdown again to try the Fedora CD/DVDs, but if there's a different panic I'll post that tomorrow.
Disabling the on-board NIC allowed the boot to proceed, and get as far as detecting the hard drive partitions (where I stopped it since Ubuntu is installed).
Ubuntu 9.04 Workstation(Desktop?) install DVD worked fine, and I've installed it and am using it to enter this.
From Ubuntu 9.04 on this hardware: "uname -r" shows

So, my question: if I disable the NIC and install (alongside Ubuntu), will I be able to get the 8111DL working with a Fedora kernel?
I attempted to install the mesa-dri-drivers-experimental package and my screen became unusable when I enabled desktop effects. I then uninstalled mesa-dri-drivers-experimental and tried to install the akmod before realizing that my card isn't supported yet. Now I can't seem to do anyting to get my screen back. I removed the blacklist on nouveau, but my screen still goes black after fedora boots. Is there any way I can just get things back to default without reinstalling the whole system?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI opened a bug for this one in December, but it's not getting much attention as yet, so I thought maybe the crew here could take a whack at it. Here's the text, slightly modified with minor clarifying updates.
Description of problem: When booting from CD burned with Fedora-14-x86_64-netinst.iso, grub starts but when handing off to kernel, text appears in upper left corner of screen and system locks up, requiring power-off to be performed to return functionality.
In testing, grub itself has always worked without visible flaw, and the various built-in functions are accessible (menu editing, command line, etc.). It's just once tries to go any further that it breaks.
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): unknown
How reproducible: Always reproducible
Steps to Reproduce:Download Fedora-14-x86_64-netinst.iso and burn to disc Select optical drive from Dell Latitude E6510 notebook from boot options menu Allow boot process to proceed
Actual results: System lock after displaying the following text:
Code:
Additional info: System is running BIOS revision A06 (latest as of today). CPU is Intel Core i7 Q720, and memory total is 4GB. Grub identifies 640K lower and 3,339,004K upper memory (commas inserted for clarity). Windows 7 Enterprise 64-bit installation performed properly in UEFI mode.
installing the software BluePad, which allows a user to control their desktop environment with a Java-enabled mobile phone.

Also, if you could also include any pre-requirements involved in the installation..
