I have been running Fedora 12 on my HP Proliant DL140 Server for about 6 months now without any issues, yesterday I ran yum update and rebooted afterwards but the server now wont boot
I've got a problem with samba and the nmb service. My system boots in Gnome
Ive set up Samba and it works ok, untill I reboot, then I have to go into services and restart Nmb service. the services bit says its dead after a reboot, its running on run levels 2345 I had a few hicups setting it up took me a couple of days to figure out the fire wall and SElinus were blocking things, so I ticked all the samba things - and it works a whole lot better.
I have to admit its a whole lot more polished than last time I tried linux - Red Hat 5. I like the Yum installer it takes a lot of guess work out for us novices, one thing I would like is to be able to edit and open things as root in Gnome or just log into it as root so that you can set things up, but I'll save that question for another day.
Is there a program that can simulate chinese watercolor style painting? I know gimp can apply some brushes and has water color, but in chinese watercoloring, you load different colors at the same brush stroke (kinda like a gradient with one color at the tip and changing towards the middle of the brush). I haven't been successful with gimp's brushes to have a nice smooth watercolor or painting stroke, it looks still computerized and "stepped"
I used fedora 11 with no problem. Then I did a fresh install of fedora 12. The laptop started making some strange noise something like water dripping or like that. I noticed this long back but I couldn't describe the problem so I waited if I can find something on my own. Even now I'm not sure if anyone can understand whats going on. Just trying my luck. To make sure it was not my laptop( hardware ) problem I went back to fed 11, no strange sounds there. Same thing happened when I upgraded to Ubuntu 9.10 from Ubuntu 9.04. I'm no expert in operating systems. I do not know what is common in Ubuntu 9.10 and fedora 12 , but they are giving the same problem.
I am facing issue in ntp, it is getting killed frequently. see below error; # /etc/init.d/ntpd status ntpd dead but pid file exists After starting service it is works fine but again after sometimes it get in dead postition.
After a couple of days, some commands related to the disk (df) or files (ls) or killing process (kill -9) doesn't respond. Even I can't reboot or shutdown my server. After an hard reboot, some files are not here anymore or the log files are not filled anymore until I restart.My disk are behind the RAID controller i6 and are configure in RAID 1. The disks are two HP SCSI 72,8GB 10k RPM.Maybe I am totally wrong to check the disk access side, so I am open to other explanation.I can also add that my CPU is running under 1% et my RAM under 10%.
i installed compiz-fusion and activated the water effect. when i use the keystrokes to initiate it or toggle the rain, nothing happens. i've tried to find information on how to fix it to no avail
The server hangs or reboots when I install Fedora 13 x86 (32-bit) from DVD onto a quad core server (64GB of mem, 16 cores). Sometimes it gets as far as starting anaconda before the hang or reboot. I've been trying different combinations of kernel options, such as vesa, pci=msi, irqfixup, max_add=3072M, noapic, nolapic, noirqbalance, maxcpu=2... But whatever I do, it hangs or it reboots. The 64 bit versions of RHEL5.5 and RHEL 6 Beta2 installs without problems.
I have downloaded SUSE 11.2 Genome CD and trying out in my PC before install. Whenever I unmaximize/maximize a window it shakes kind of like Images in water. Is this some special effects which can be turned off?before installling as I have never seen this thing in Windows XP.
I recently installed Fedora 11 on my machine, the configuration of which is: Intel Core i7 920 CPU, 3 GB DDR3 SDRAM, nVidia GTX295 Graphics Card. I initially used the default kmod-nvidia driver, but with a yum update, somehow a non-PAE kernel got installed and the kmod-nvidia driver did not get installed with it during the update for some reason. So I uninstalled the PAE kernel and associated kmod drivers, and downloaded the nVidia driver from the nVidia website. It ran just fine for a few days, and then all of a sudden, after a reboot, the X Server crashed and I had to log into the text mode, run
Code: setup and do the default X configuration. Then, I re-installed kmod-nvidia, with no luck. Sorry for being so vague about this, but I finally managed to get the CUDA driver (I need to use CUDA for my project work) to work (downloaded from [URL]). But after one reboot, the same problem resurfaced.
Now, I am in X Windows with a default 800x600 configuration using a generic visa driver, on a 23" monitor I have been rebooting my computer all morning and trying various things to get the driver to work again. I would be happy to furnish any details about the installed packages I have. For now, here is some information.
My mail server is getting problem since 3 days. It automatically get hang and httpd service get dead any time. How I can check what is effecting server, load, network traffic etc...
I inherited a water damaged Samsung NC10. A glass of water was spilled on the keyboard. I have dried the system out and it is now booting without issues. My only problem is that the keyboard has one key (P) that will not work at all. Every other key is fine. I removed the keyboard and reseated the connector ribbon but this has had no positive effect. I plugged a USB keyboard in and (P) works. Do you think that this means that the original keyboard is dead and should be replaced to have a fully functioning NC10? Or is it possible that water damage has made it so that no matter how many NC10 keyboards I plug in, it will have the same problem?
I need to know how to configure automate sending sms if server reboot and shutdown? Now i just set sms notification once my server it's UP by create scripts in /etc/rc.d/rc.local while booting then from server sending sms notification. SMS - using gnokii attached mobibe phone. Server - Fedora 10
We have a quad core Intel Xeon E 5410 processor running on recently installed centOS 5.5. Machine can't be pinged all of sudden and when we switch on the monitor, no signal on it, even no response on keyboard. We thought the problem accorded with abrupt temperature changes, is it so? But we have similar machines running efficiently under same temperature conditions.
I also looked into the mail logs and found the following. Mar 14 10:15:43 quant dovecot: Auth process died too early - shutting down file or directory Mar 14 10:15:43 quant dovecot: child 4442 (auth) returned error 127
I've got a box with a fresh installation of CentOS 5.6, but had several configs copied from an old 4.8 box that I've now got to finish. Most everything seems fine, but I can't get apache running. It reports that it starts up fine, but immediately stops and reports "httpd dead but subsys locked"Most of the advice I've found while searching suggests to just delete the http.pid file and restart, which doesn't help in my case. I did find a few problems where SELinux was restricting httpd from creating or touching certain files (I found reports in /var/log/messages) but I've worked through that.
So the big question here is: /var/log/messages and /var/log/httpd/error_log are now empty, and don't show any more errors when I restart httpd. Does anyone know where else I can look for reporting/logging on what's happening to httpd to cause it to die?
I am using CentOS 5.6 with Apache 2.2.17. The Apache was compiled from source using RPM build to comply with PCI requirements. Also Plesk 9.3 is used as a control panel, but other than the config files the Apache is pretty standard. When the httpd is started, there are no errors reported in /var/log/messages or in the error_log, and the httpd starts, shows up in ps and the pid file exists in /var/run/httpd.pid.
However when you check the status 'service httpd status' you get 'httpd dead but subsys locked'. You can add websites normally, and the proper config files are generated so I am pretty sure this isn't a control panel issue as I have other servers running the same control panel and Apache 2.2.16 compiled and installed the same way as the 2.2.17 and there are no problems.
im using Ubuntu 10.04 and whenever i enable it and try to iniate it it just makes my screen black =/. It sucks because i really loved that feature (on 64-bit btw)
My part time hobby PC, running FC12, has started misbehaving following some recent updates. I hadn't booted the machine for about 10 days. It booted OK, I checked for updates, applied them, and then my problems started.When I boot now I get LONG delays after logging in and eventually will get the following error:
Could not display "x-nautilus-desktop:///". Error DBus error.org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.NoReply:
Did not receive a reply, etc, etc...Have tried re-installing Nautilus, same problem. Being a relative Linux (though not Unix) newbie, what is Nautilus? Do I need it? Can I just get rid of it? Is there an alternative I can install that does work?
I know that this topic has been posted, responded to, and maybe even resolved, many times here, but I am stuck here with partially dead fileserver and need some pointers.
Problem: one disk drive that was part of a logical volume died. I have a replacement, but I can't get it into the LV and get the LV back up again.
pvcreate --uuid <uuid of dead drive> /dev/sdX1, where /dev/sdX1 is the newly created drive and its partition. vgcfgrestore VolGroup vgscan VolGroup vgchange -ay VolGroup e2fsck /dev/mapper/VolGroup-LogVol
but, e2fsck can't find a superblock. Apparently this drive is the first in the LV sequence, and it is not formatted as part of the LV.
So how to I get this new disk formatted into the LV without reformatting the entire LV and losing what data I still have?
When I look the Services panel, nxserver is listed but shows as "Service is Dead". Does this mean anything specifically? Could it be related to firewall or security issues? Right above it a related program to nxserver, nxsensor, is listed and it's shown as operational.
Same thing here in my Services panel. Just getting into using NX...the display seems near Win RDP quality over the home lan. I'm now trying to get the sound to work. What is this 'dummy output' in my Sound preferences and where did my sound cards go? I have one onboard sc and a PCI card, neither recognized via the NX client session. Looking to get ESD going which might be the issue.
I have Fedora 11. After my most recent update, I can't log in. Every time I authenticate, the logon window disappears, the screen goes black briefly, and then I am back at the log in window I entirely reinstalled, and then it worked, until I updated to the newest kernel then it didn't work anymore. Update: I now generated a xorg.conf with system-config-display --noui I manually removed and reinstalled xorg-x11-drv-intel with yum. It didn't work. By the way: now the start hangs on "Starting atd: OK" If I specify "vesa" in xorg.conf, then it gets past the point, but display doesn't load properly.
I have FC 12 install on a Compaq nx9600 that comes with a Broadcom BMC4306 wireless card. I'm not sure what my kernel is, but I have all of the updates for FC 12.Whenever my laptop resumes from Hibernation/Suspend my Enable Wireless check box in the Network Manager is greyed out and it will not come back till I reboot the computer. Is there any one out there that can help with this problem, as I do not want to disable my Hibernation/Suspend as I tend to forget to turn the laptop off for a few days on end, and this beast sucks a lot of power so it is a drain on my power bill.
I have opened up the Service Configuration window that shows all the services and their status. My httpd says that it is enabled, but also that "this service is dead" and there is a orangish triangle. I can run phpMyAdmin on my server, but I can't run it from any other PC on my network.
i just installed Fedora 12, clean without anything change in it. I opened services dialog, and the openvpn service have status:dead, however it shows that it is enabled.when i try to run it as:/sbin/service openvpn start.It write OK. However if check it:/sbin/service openvpn status it write that service not running. What is a point of a problem? I have opened openvpn in FireWall,however without success, may be some additionsl services for openvpn are not running?
I have cloned linux installation from USB drive to another. The system is Fedora core and it is used as a software for encoding live stream (it's using PCI encoding cards). The system works well on original hardware configuration, however when I use this cloned flash drive on another hardware configuration one service will not start. It is a "calld" service and it is a service which has a protection which limits its execution to original hardware platform only (mac authentication probably). I need to get this service up, so when I type command "service calld starts/tatus" or "etc/init.d/calld start" I get response "service is dead and subsystems are locked". I tried matching mac address to original hardware configuration but still the same. This is a config file of service /etc/init.d/calld
I'm having major network issues. I cannot get a real IP address with this RHEL installation I have. Im using a Braodcom NetLink ethernet card and the tg3 driver that came with my install cd. When I go to services it says my NetworkManager is enables but dead.
