I have noticed that the updates to my f12 64bit systems are running longer due to the fact that fewer fedora updates are delta rpms. Why is this. I know that rpmfusion updates and other third party updates are not covered.
View 9 RepliesI just installed F14 (so far I like it ). I had F13 but decided to wipe the old OS and install F14 fresh. In the course of replacing all of my old programs, I had to download several .rpms like the .rpms for the RPMFusion repos and the .rpm for Adobe Reader. After downloading the .rpms to a download directory I ran yum localinstall to install them. The installations went well and I didn't have any problems.
However, now the packages are showing up as updates which need to be installed in the software updates window. I also ran yum check-update and they are showing up as updates which need to be installed. I tried deleting the .rpms and also running yum clean all but they are still showing up as updates which need to be installed.
The following packages have no delta rpms in 11.2: acroread - Adobe Reader ,java-1_6_0-sun, java-1_6_0-sun-plugin, Opera Web Browser, flash-player A quick check on 11.0 and 11.1 update repos shows that there are delta rpms for latest acrobat reader, sun java and opera updates. Is this a new Novell/openSUSE policy and has there been an anouncement made to inform users.
View 7 Replies View RelatedI currently mirror the updates repository to my computer using rsync. I was wondering if I could save space and bandwidth by only rsyncing the .delta.rpm files? Are there any disadvantages to this or does zypper/YAST handle updates just fine with it?
View 3 Replies View RelatedThere appears to be three rpms duplicated between the base repo and the updates repo:
gnome-python2-gtkhtml2-2.14.2-6.el5.x86_64.rpm
gnome-python2-extras-2.14.2-6.el5.x86_64.rpm
gnome-python2-libegg-2.14.2-6.el5.x86_64.rpm
This causes a big problem for Spacewalk as the packages are non-unique among channels.
I'm assuming these should be in base but not updates?Can they be removed to address this issue?
How can I see the list of files - e.g. patched files - of a delta RPM file ? I can convert the drpm file into a cpio archive with rpm2cpio tool but cpio -i produces a Malformed number along with scrambled characters in the output.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI've joined this forum because I couldn't find any answer anywhere else by searching the internet. I've installed a F10 64-bit default installation (with updates until 25 Feb. 2009), using nvidia latest proprietary driver, pulseaudio, kde4, proprietary flash 10 beta 64-bit plugin with firefox. When I play music on Myspace the sound dropouts randomly each 3 to 30 seconds when using my M-Audio Delta 66 soundcard.
I'm using the same configuration in F8 without this problem. After login (in F10) and some other times I also have a Kernel failure message: ALSA sound/core/pcm_lib.c:154: BUG: stream = 1, pos = 0xaaa, buffer size = 0xaaa, period size = 0xaaa I don't know if it has got anything to do with the dropouts. There are no messages in /var/log/messages when the dropouts occurs.

View 2 Replies View RelatedAnybody know of any Firefox 3.5 final RPMS for Fedora 10? I looked a rebuilding the Fedora 11 RPMS for Fedora 10, but the other packages requiring an upgrade as well is getting out of control.
View 7 Replies View RelatedI'd like to confirm if the latest updates of a couple of rpms is causing me a problem. I'd like to downgrade these rpms to an intermediate version (greater than the original F11 versions, but less than the latest version). I've looked on a few mirrors, and all I can find is the latest update. Are intermediate versions of an rpm discarded when they're replaced with new versions? Are these intermediate versions available some place?
The two rpms I'm interested in are:
gstreamer-plugins-good-0.10.16-1.fc11.i586
gstreamer-plugins-base-0.10.25-1.fc11.i586
I am trying to create a local repository of installed RPMs on my workstation. Using the 'rpm -qa' I can gather the installed RPMs on my workstation. Is there a way for me download all these RPMs using the output of 'rpm -qa'? 'yum --downloadonly' will allow me the option of downloading without installing. Since the installed RPMs are not cached in my workstation I have to download these RPMs again. If I have a local repo then it will be easier for me restore my installation without having to rediscover the packages needed. I am looking for how I can download multiple RPMs.
View 5 Replies View RelatedI know there is a command that will show what rpms are installed on a machine that are no longer available in a yum repository, but I can't remember what it is! It is useful to identify packages left over after an upgrade that are no longer needed, or to identify third party software.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have been running f13 ever since it was released. Evidently the kmod-rt2870 rpms are never deleted when older kernels are removed. When I tried to do today's update the Package Manager and yum complained that some of the older kmod-rt2870 packages left over from fedora 12 were missing kernel dependencies. The kernels have been missing for a long time. I don't know why the package manager started complaining today.
I tried
1) yum clean all
2 rpm --rebuilddb
3) removed the /lib/modules directory corresponding to the old kernels
and the problem persisted.
I finally removed all of the kmod-rt2870 rpms what where originally installed in fedora 12 and I was finally able to complete the update. Why did the package manager suddenly start complaining about the missing kernels?

View 5 Replies View RelatedI am trying to install f10 on an old dell dimension 2400 with an old video chipset. Everything was working pretty smooth until I tried installing an .rpm file from a flashdrive. At first, it looked like it was installing the rhpxl file but gave a warning message that said
warning:rpmts_HdrFromFdno:Header V3 DSA signature: NOKEY, Key ID 4ebfc273
then says the public key will not be installed. Is there a file/command that I can download and run from a flash because I have no capable internet connection because for some reason linux doesn't see it in the install.
Okay, according to CUPS, I've installed this printer, but whenever I try to print, it tells me it's completed, but the printer does nothing. So I search a little and found some Canon Linux drivers from Canon Europe. I downloaded the RPM version, which gave me two files: cnijfilter-common-3.00-1.i386.rpm and cnijfilter-ip3600series-3.00-1.i386.rpm. So I installed the common file, followed by the ip3600 file, using rpm -ivh [file name] at command line. The RPM install went fine. However, what do I do now? I tried searching the CUPS list of printers, and nothing new is listed (oddly, CUPS seemed to have drivers for virtually every iPxxxx printer except the 3600 when I first installed). I tried restarting cups, no difference. I even tried to print (suspecting nothing had changed, but hoping) and it still thinks it's printing, but nothing comes out. What did installing those two RPMs do? Did it put a file somewhere that I need to reference in the cups admin page?

View 4 Replies View RelatedHave project to move to RHEL5 with Oracle11g. During process, went to Red Hat Network and they were not currently available. Is there another source of RPM's for installation on RHEL5?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a home network with 6+ x86_64 machines, all with similar setups. In the past (FC10 and before), I've had common package repositories (e.g /var/cache/yum/fedora/packages) shared via NFS with all the machines (and with keepcache=1 in /etc/yum.conf). That way, a given RPM only got downloaded once; the other machines would then pull it from my local package repository. And I don't mind the disk usage of keeping one copy of all my old RPMS around.
It seems that while DRPMS is great for a single machine, it doesn't make sense in my case. If I have to download the DRPM 6 times (and take the time/CPU hit to recreate the RPM 6 times), I might as well have downloaded the RPM once and been done with it. Is there a not-too-convoluted method to keep a common package repository across multiple machines even with DRPMS? Or, better, to have that first downloading machine pull a DRPM, generate the RPM, then save the RPM in the local shared repository?
It is not difficult to set up a regular local repository (rpms) and manage a fedora system with it using yum. I wonder if the process is same for deltaRPMS. Has anyone successfully set up a local deltaRPM repo or is this something reserved for online repos? How does one achieve this?

View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm pretty much an Ubuntu noob and I'm about to give up. I've spent hours reading tips and tricks to get this sound card working but I usually end up making things worse. This will be my last attempt
- onboard sound is disabled in BIOS
- Delta 1010LT is recognized
- fresh Ubuntu 10.04 32bit install . . . everything is default.
- I know how to access the terminal and for argument's sake, let's say that's it. I need step by step.
I tried to remove all instances of pulse audio in the past and it removed the desktop as well. Talk about frustrating. Ok, so here I am. Fresh install, no sound and I haven't touched a thing.
I'm not too experienced on Ubuntu, but I'm trying to get a Delta 1010LT working on Ubuntu 10.04 minimal install (no gnome, only console).I can see the board detected using lspci, but looking at dmesg output I get the following:
Code:
[ 31.116668] ICE1712 0000:05:00.0: PCI INT A -> GSI 21 (level, low) -> IRQ 21
[ 31.116709] ice1712: Using board model M Audio Delta 1010LT
[ 31.135560] invalid CS8427 signature 0x0: let me try again...
[code].....
if a change the model to delta1010 the driver is loaded correctly, but I assume there are major differences between the two boards so I don't get audio out, even if I unmute everything using alsamixer.Motherboard is an Intel D510MO with onboard audio disabled.
