My F11 only works at the kernel 2.6.30.8-64.fc11.i586.
I have other two kernel installed, 2.6.30.9-96.fc11.i586 andn 2.6.30.9-90.fc11.i586.
But my fc11 cannot work with them.
So every time I start the system, I need to press tab key and choose the lower version kernel.
I just did 'yum update' on my system and got a number of errors such as this one:
Code:
Updating : xfce4-settings-4.6.1-4.fc11.i586 87/184
Error unpacking rpm package xfce4-settings-4.6.1-4.fc11.i586
error: unpacking of archive failed on file /usr/share/locale/zh_CN/LC_MESSAGES/xfce4-settings.mo;4ad11889: cpio: open
Sometimes instead of "cpio: open" it was "cpio: rename". There were a total of 18 such errors. These were listed as failures in the summary at the end. I then did another "yum update" and it redid 17 of the 18 successfully. It did not redo f-spot. Here's a snippet of the summary at the end of the first update:

I was helping my cousin move to the GNU Linux world and I was faced with the following problem: He has a MSI nVidia GeForce FX5200 PCIe (128MB vRam) Graphics card. I followed a couple of instructions here in getting that card to work, but the drivers that I was able to load up to his 23 bit system refused to load after system boot up (white flashing letters would come up, X server refusing to load). I was only able to load the system with full 3D hardware accelerated support when I loaded the old xxxxx.i586 based kernel from the GRUB list, while the current kernel that was being used was xxxx.i686 based one.
Currently there was two kernels in the list, so I manually edited the GRUB file to change the boot identifier number from 1 (xxxx.i686) to 0 (xxxx.i586) so every time that the computer would be powered on, it would load that kernel up automatically without having to reselect it manually each time.
Yesterday, my cousin picked up his computer, he was fine and happy with his fedora core (version 11, because Version 12 had major problems with this graphics card, its on the "test" list still, and the developers of fedora, or the developers of that other 3rd party software source seems to be in the middle of testing it for FC12 compatibility)
He told me today that after he ran the "updates" for fedora and installed them, when he rebooted the system, he would see that same while characters in the top left section of the screen flashing and it would get stuck there, he told me that he was able to solve the problem by rebooting and selecting the xxxxxx.i586 kernel from the list. He also told me that he saw three kernels from the list.
For what I see here, this driver will only load with the i586 based kernel, and I also am seeing that each time that he updates his system he may have to go thru this again. My question is this: Will fedora 11 change his default kernel each time that he runs Fedora Updates? If so, what can I do to prevent that change from occurring.
Also, is there a limit on the kernels that appears on the GRUB list, if each updates brings a new kernel entry on the GRUB list, will the list get very large one day? or will Fedora remove one or more kernels, in other words, what is the maximum number of Kernels Fedora keeps on the GRUB list? and will there be a point that Fedora updates will delete that working i586 kernel leaving him with a non booting system? Or will that nvidia driver "magically" start working with some future update after the developers fix/improves what ever is keeping that nVidia driver from loading with the latest updates?
when i try to install any program i always have this type of erreur messagehow to solve that ?

We bought a board with vortex 86x processor. we tried to install RHEL6 beta version. when we select the installation choice we were getting below error: "This kernel requires an i586 cpu, but only detected an i486 cpu. Unable to boot please use a kernel appropritate for your cpu."
We have contacted the board personal. he said(in his words)"If you need to use redhat, you have to use the config & patch file provided in the development note to develop a kernel which is suitable for redhat."
I have some programs, that will only install on i586 architecture (opposed to x86_64). My CPU is 64-bit architecture. Can I install FC12/11 with i586 kernel on the hardware? How? Any disadvantages except the fact that I'm supposedly not able to use the 64-bit feature of the CPU?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have an Aldi PC with a Q8200 processor and have installed Fedora11 on this system. Regularly I get updates to install, but also updates for i586 packages, which give a conflict with the x86_64 packages already installed.Sometimes I have missed a i586 package in the update list, resulting in an error next time.Is there a script which automatically filters these i586 packages from the update list?

Offlate I installed F11 i586 on my laptop. F11 shares the hard disk with Vista Home Premium 32-bit. The problem is that when running F11 (or even Ubuntu), my system shut off suddenly(not a normal OS shut down, but a sudden power off without any warning). This could have been a hardware trouble(heating) but it doesn't happen with Vista.
Machine specifications:
Maker: Toshiba
Model: Satellite L305D-S5881
AMD Turion X2 Dual Core Mobile Processor RM-70
3072 MB 800 MHz SDRAM
I don't want to open up my machine unnecessarily, if it isn't a hardware issue.
I am not sure how to verify the bit length of the machine and the OS and does it create a compatibility issue ?
Your advise would be highly appreciated.

I upgraded from fc10; there was a residue of four fc10 2.27 kernels in /lib/modules from my fc10->fc11 upgrade; I moved them to a new subdirectory /usr/oldmodules, but the yum update command still produces the same failure message.
I was on version 2.6.29.6-217.2.3.fc11.x86_64 and it asked me to update so I did. When I restarted I chose this version to install and after a brief loading screen it goes to a black screen with a cursor prompt and pretty much stays there. So I go back to 2.6.29.6-217.2.3.fc11.x86_64 which boots up just fine. But after a while I get some updates that won't install because it says that Packages are not compatible:Install - Linux Kernal 2.6.30.5-43.fc11(x86_64)

I recently update FC10 to FC11 and Yum has stopped working. Also, "Add/Remove Software" has no packages listed. And, I have no Software repositories listed. When I try to run Yum I get the following:
There was a problem importing one of the Python modules required to run yum. The error leading to this problem was:

it's possible to use preupgrade to go directly from FC8 to FC11.
Also, I'm wondering if this will allow me to avoid formatting my hard drive or not. I'll have backups ready just in case, but was hoping maybe I could get away with not having to do the old two-step shuffle with all my data.
After a base install of FC11 i don't have vimdiff nor can i get it with yum

I had FC 6 and FC8 installed on a laptop, and all my video players (xime, vlc, mplayer) worked perfect. However I installed FC11 and the video freezes for few seconds while the sound is working o.k. then the video starts moving faster to synchronize the sound.

View 3 Replies View RelatedIn the last couple of weeks I was trying to work thru some issues regarding access from my FC11 box to my WinXP box over the local network (Have had no problem using Samba to go the other way). I was trying to use smb4k and couldn't seem to make it work. Maybe that's because I use Gnome as my desktop (tho, I would guess that the install of smb4k would include necessary dependencies for KDE).I went back to this problem today and figured out how to access the window shares using Gnome Connect to Server function (Have tried it in the past but must have been doing something wrong). I now get the icon on my desktop and the appropriate listing in the Place menu.
What I notice is when I click on the icon (or select the share listing on the Place menu) to open the "folder" I get a duplicate of the icon on my desktop and duplicate listing on the Place menu. The window opens with access to the folder without any problem. If I close the window, it does so just fine, but I'm left with the duplicate icon and menu listing. To get rid of these "extraneous" items, I need to unmount the volume. Then the extra icon and Place menu listing are gone. If I already have opened the window and incurred a duplicate icon, etal., even if I close and then open it again, no more duplicates are added.Is this normal or is there a setting I need to change to keep this duplicate from happening.
After automatically updating the eclipse packages, the C/C++ perspective disappeared.There is no way of retrieving *.c files except in the general text editor.Also the make panel disappeared.
PS: This once happened too for FC10, but then I could retrieve C/C++ from an older installation.
