Fedora :: F11 Laptop Suspends Automatically?
Sep 2, 2009
I have an up-to-date x86-64 F11 installation. Twice every day once precisely at 10:40am, and once sometime roughly around 1:26pm -- the laptop suspends. Even if I'm in the middle of typing something. I've checked the BIOS and nothing there would indicate a timer for an automatic suspend message being sent to the OS. This is a 2.5 year old machine, and it's only run Fedoras (7,8,9,10, and now 11). This problem has only cropped up on Fedora 11.Any idea where to start debugging it? I looked at /var/log/pm-suspend.log, but it just seems to indicate that it properly went to suspend and had no problems waking up 8 seconds later.

I am using FC 14 on my laptop (Dell insprion 1525). When I installed vlc it worked nice, but about 2 weeks ago after updates, each time when I run vlc, after short time running (about 10 - 20 seconds). All system suspends (actually computer responds very lately).

I've got my Lenovo T60 laptop wireless running without too much trouble, the only problem is when i close my laptop lid and open it again the wirelessconnection is down and i simply cant click on the network icon in the notification area to re-connect as wlan0 is inactive. If i go to System>admin>network i cant activate the interface either as the 'active' button is greyed out, the only way to get the thing to come alive again (other than a full reboot) is to toggle the wireless switch on my laptop off and then back on.Not sure this should be required, i've got the interface configured to start automatically but it doesnt seem to care.

I've been using Ubuntu for a few weeks now, and I really enjoy using it. Whenever I click Suspend, it suspends just fine, but when I try to resume the session again, it jumps back to life for a few seconds and then it sounds like it just cuts the power. Nothing is ever displayed on the screen.

This is a new issue since 10.04 (9.10 did it right). I'm on 10.10 netbook right now. What I would like to figure out is how to tell the system to go into suspend when idle even though the lid is open. I don't know if this problem is hardware specific or just a config file edit. Just to get it out of the way, it does suspend correctly when the lid is closed - and I can tell it to suspend when the lid is open, but what I need is for it to suspend when I fall asleep working or forget I left it open without overheating / running out of battery and losing my work. I'm pretty good at doing things on linux, despite the fact that I'm running the netbook remix, so don't be afraid to tell me to open a file in the terminal or whatever.

I have updated to 10.04 on my desktop and on my Dell Inspiron 8200 laptop.What I would like to do is have the machines automatically synchronise working files as they change on each machine. I have found backup programs but am not sure if they will do what I need

Everything was working fine when my laptop got shut down after a battery failure. Now, on restarting, the computer hangs at the login screen. If I close the lid and reopen it, the keyboard seems to work and I can enter password and login, but the touchpad doesn't work at all and all the functions that were to be performed while holding the function key seems to happen automatically (For eg. when I press 0, another key gets typed). Perhaps the drivers are't getting loaded properly, I don't know. The same story is there no matter how many times I restart. I am using Ubuntu 9.10 and the laptop is Dell Vostro 1525

I am having trouble getting grub to automatically boot into ubuntu server. When I turn on my server the grub menu shows up and shows me the choices. They all work fine except that grub wont automatically select one. This wouldn't be too much of a problem but this is a headless server and I can't boot into ubuntu without a keyboard. I tried looking through the grub 2 documentation but nothing seemed to work when I edited the conf file.

sda win xp
sdb Fedora 14
There is a problem (I can see) with F14 install.
In the past the grub was installed during install (since Fedora 6).
Now choosing an install disk "sdb" (install target
drive) requests a drive to be chosen for
bootloader, but if the alternate drive sda is
chosen (this case the XP drive), it is formatted.
I have gone though install many times to see what I missed.
This once worked beautifully. What did I miss?
I now have XP and Fedora 14 installed but I cannot reach Fedora 14.
I had to do a fixmbr to get to XP
Since I cannot reach F14, I cannot get to grub2 and have to use .97

I'm making an effort to use Fedora as my primary desktop (previously Win Vista), but have a problem that I can't find an answer for. At seemingly random times, I will just be logged off and kicked out to the login screen for no reason. The computer's not shutting down or rebooting, but only logging out. It happens while I'm working, so it's very annoying. I have screensavers turned off, and have no actions set in power management (I am on a laptop). I have some experience with Linux systems, but not so much with using it as a desktop system. I'm running the following:
HP Pavilion dv3000 with Core 2 Duo P7350 @ 2GHz and 4GB RAM
64-bit Fedora 12, kernel 2.6.31.12-174.2.3, Gnome 2.28.2
Nvidia driver with external monitor (TwinView)
also using Compiz and Emerald theme manager
Does anyone have any clue as to what could be causing this, or even how to look for a cause?

I'm looking for a way to convert .wav/.cue file pairs to their respective tracks in flac format, with ID3 tags from the .cue file. Preferably I would like to be able to do this in such a way that the new tracks would be copied to the appropriate %Artist%/%Album%/%trackno% %title%.flac location. Back in the days when I would go out of the car and back in when it didn't work, I would mount the .cue/wav file pair with Alcohol52, and use Windows Media Player to do the rest of the ripping for me. I'd like to be able to do something similar in Fedora.
I've looked around, but most threads talk about cuebreakpoints and shnsplit. Surely, I could do the job with those, but then I'd need to rename the files manually, copy them to the correct location manually, and input the ID3 data manually. This is very time consuming, and I'm trying at all costs to avoid this. I've already called Google several times, but his phone is turned off. How could I do the conversion in an automated way, preferably without going to Mr. terminal's office?

I am running F14 with now GUI. What's a good way to get a CD to play automatically? What program does this when there is a GUI installed?
I really just need to figure out how Fedora knows a CD is inserted. I think I can figure out the rest.

I am going nuts because this should a simple thing and for some reason it's not. 1. I'm just trying to use NTP to set the time automatically. I've done numerous installs and had it work fine. However for my Fedora 11 box and this Fedora 13 box, it's not working. I'm getting a vague error "unable to connect to server." Which could mean anything. As near as I can tell, it should be simple:
a. Select to use NTP.
b. Adjust the local firewall to allow connections at 123 (ntp)
c. If necessary, adjust the router settings for port 123.
I have tried sending port 123 traffic directly to my Fedora 13 machine, but same error. I've tried using other choices of ntp server (like the North America pool). No dice. I've had two separate routers, first a Dlink and now a Cisco. Same problem. I've checked the SELinux logs for errors but didn't notice anything obvious (that doesn't mean much -- I'm not much of an SELinux guru). I've set up Fedora 14 at work and it connected just fine. Didn't have to open anything other than the local port on the Fedora firewall. No network/router adjustments needed.
It's not a giant thing but it's driving me nuts. Anyone out there have any suggestions? Particularly big obvious things that maybe I've overlooked? Does some other setting override this NTP time? Does using this require use of GMT? Something like that?

how do I uninstall Java? Tried with Synaptic and apt-get remove, but uninstalling sun-java6 automatically adds default-jre (openjdk) and uninstalling openJdk automatically installs sun-java ... but I don't want ANY Java on my machine - am I missing something? Already thought I maybe have a package that requires SOME kind of Java, but how do I find out?

I'm running off the most current kernel for Fedora 11 x64 and all packages are upgraded. I didn't hit the suspend button at any time but it went down to disk (black screen, soft yellow power light) and the lid had to be opened again for things to work properly.

Running 64-bit Fedora 10 with original installation runlevel being 5.
So, there was this need for working with runlevel 3 for some days, then I've edited "/etc/inittab", changing line
id:5:initdefault:
for line
id:3:initdefault:
And the system went well, restarting automatically on runlevel 3.
Now it needs to restore its original runlevel, that is 5.
I've edited "/etc/inittab" to its original state but the system keeps starting on runlevel 3.
Also, I've tried
# init 5
and
# telinit 5
Both commands load X and the login screen but then when it restarts, it gets back to runlevel 3.
What can be done to get this system back to runlevel 5, automatically, during its INIT process?

I'm sure there is a thread on this somewhere, but after looking though the first 100+ search results, I can't seem to find it.
After a kernel update today, I noticed that new kernels are not being added to my grub menu.lst (so consequently, I was running an older kernel).
Any obvious reason why this would happen (kernels being installed normally, with yum update)? I thought the whole process was supposed to be automagic.
Would it have anything to do with the fact that I just kept my F11 menu.lst, and added a F12 kernel to it when I installed F12 (to a separate partition), then eventually (today, finally) removed the f11 kernels from it?
Here's my menu.lst, in case it's useful:
Code:

Using Ubuntu Linux for some years now I love CUPS functionality to switch on the printer (at least my USB connected HP Deskjet) automatically when a new print job has been submitted to CUPS. This does not work in Fedora 15? Does anyone know how to enable this or has the new CUPS or any other component lost this functionality?
