Fedora :: KDE 4.3 Upgrade - Wireless Not Working Upon Restart
Aug 27, 2009
Today I updated my system, I noticed that KDE would be upgraded to 4.3. Upon restart of my computer my wireless didn't work (and still doesn't) and I cannot use the desktop effects anymore (probably the graphics driver). Is there any way I can fix those problems, or downgrade my system so everything just works? I'm using Fedora 11 KDE (64-bits). And I've kept a list of all updates. Ok, I figured that it was a different version of the kernel, the update set the other kernel to default. I'm back to 2.6.29.6-217.2.8.fc11.x86_64 and everything works.

I have a Toshiba Satellite A135 with a built in Atheros 802.11 b/g wireless card. It worked perfectly up until i upgraded from Fedora 12 to 13 but now it quits working and when i go to the terminal and type service network restart I get this:
[Nemesis@Nemesiss-paradise ~]$ su
Password:
[root@Nemesiss-paradise Nemesis]# service network restart
Shutting down interface eth0: [OK]
Shutting down interface wlan0: [OK]
Shutting down loopback interface: [OK]
Bringing up loopback interface: [OK]
Bringing up interface eth0: Error: Connection activation failed: Device not managed by NetworkManager [FAILED]
Bringing up interface wlan0: [OK]
[root@Nemesiss-paradise Nemesis]#
And I am not sure what to do, I can get the wireless working again if I completely shut my computer down and restart it. I am running gnome.

I have a Broadcom wireless card in my hp dv6500z laptop, I had it all working properly in FC9 thanks to bbfuller and his post on the subject. After I upgraded to FC11 I have been unable to get it to connect.
I can see my neighbor's sites and suppose I could see my own if the SSID was allowed to broadcast but I keep that turned off. I put in all of the setting, including the network security key, but it won't connect, then when I go back and look again, the security key is not even close to what I put in; it gets changed to a huge string of characters.
I redownloaded broadcom-wl-4.150.10.5.tar.bz2.tar and followed the instruction on the post once again but no luck, which, after I thought about it, was a waste of time because if I can see other's wireless, then the card must be working. I have tried using Network Manager and not using Network Manager and still no luck...

If I want to swap from wired to wireless I have to restart my laptop. If I just flip the wireless switch on at the side it does not seem to recognise that I have wirless capabilities, I have to restart with the switch set to on.

Alright, so I upgraded my old fedora 10 server to Fedora 11 with a netinstall CD, but now service httpd restart is broken. I already had to delete the old config file and reinstall apache, but now I can't restart it. I can kill it and then start it manually, but it never stops the running instance and fails to bind the port. I know it's because /var/run/httpd/htpd.pid is in the wrong place, which would be /var/run/httpd.pid, but do I have to make a symlink every time I want to restart it? I edited all the config files to point to the right place, but the system does not honor them. What do I do?

This should be easy for the Ubuntu Gods to sort out:
I have a Sabrent USB 802.11N adapter. (I am using 64-bit Ubuntu in all below)
I plug it into a 9.04 box and it works fine. Plug it into a 9.10 box. Network manager sees it and can attach to the network, but has 0% signal strength, no internet.
Rebuild the 9.04 box with a fresh install to 9.10. 0% signal, no internet. Try 10.04 Alpha 2, 0% signal strength, no internet.
Rebuild same box down to 9.04. Works perfectly. 100% signal strength. I do all updates and then the upgrade to 9.10 using the USB. Everything works fine until the reboot. Then, USB connects, but 0% signal strength, no internet. Oh! ifconfig says the wlan0 interface is up, but it has a random ip address.
I don't mind using 9.04 because for the forseeable future, the box is just going to count aliens for Seti, but my wife wants it off the counter and I would like to upgrade someday.

After upgrading from Karmic to Lucid, no wireless networks are found on my computer�an acer travelmate 5510. On Karmic, wifi worked flawlessly "out of the box"�no windows drivers or anything needed. I have checked under Administration/hardware drivers; it tells me "no proprietary drivers are in use on this system." Cabled internet access through my wifi router works fine. How to get wifi up and running under Lucid. Despite having used Karmic for a while, I am relatively new to the inner workings of Ubuntu / linux systems, and really don't know where to go from here.

I upgraded to Ubuntu 10.4 on my Dell Inspiron 6400 yesterday (32-bit). Everything was running great, but when I turned it on today my wireless adapter is no longer working and the hardware switch doesn't do anything. It's working in Windows fine so it can't be the hardware.Here is some information:
Adapater name: Intel Corporation PRO/Wireless 3945ABG [Golan] Network Connection (rev 02)
Code:
iwconfig:
wlan0 IEEE 802.11abg ESSID:off/any[code]....
Restarting the network with 'sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart' didn't work.I've tried Ubuntu several times before but usually there is one small issue which makes me go back to Windows. I love 10.4 so I hope I can get this working so I can stay on Ubuntu!

Testing distribution. Installed Linux 3.0 but left 2.6.32 on as backup. When I boot into the old kernel, wireless mostly works OK, but never when I boot with the new kernel.
Results of dmesg|grep wlan0 on 2.6:
[ 22.005102] ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP): wlan0: link is not ready
[ 28.196774] ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP): wlan0: link is not ready
[ 28.644779] ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP): wlan0: link is not ready
[ 30.688053] wlan0: direct probe to AP 00:19:5b:06:9f:ba (try 1)
[ 30.694053] wlan0: direct probe responded
[Code]...
Noticing the Access Point looked like it needed the MAC address, I ran iwconfig wlan0 ap <MACADDRESS> and sometimes it will work, and wicd can connect to the access point. But sometimes the command fails to run.

Ever since I upgraded to the new Ubuntu, I have been having problem with wireless. In the "Hardware Drivers" I come up with 2 drivers:
1) Boadcom B43 wireless driver
2) Broadcon STA wireless driver
I activated the first one, but latter noticed that the wireless was not working, so I tried installing the second and it returned this message:

So I unactivated the first and then it disappeared leaving me with the second, and its error message.

Like many others it seems, my wireless has stopped working since a recent upgrade The answer does not lie in analysis of logs, settings etc. but surely with those who did it - they should provide a fix. I cannot believe everyone expects each individual users to go into their own analysis of why this is no longer working as it is clearly widespread. I have been using Ubuntu for 18 months without this problem on the same dual-boot laptop, and it still works on Windows as before, only Ubuntu 10.4 has recently stopped my network card from working.
I need to know when this will be fixed. I have been embarrassed by promoting Ubuntu to many colleagues who now also cannot work at home on their wireless networks. Seriously disillusioned I may start looking for a more stable alternative to Windows.

I have used a quite obscure device called Cideko AK0b [URL] .... for quite some time now and it has worked perfectly for almost 2 years now, both in Wheezy and in Jessie. However since I made an dist-upgrade a while back the mouse has totally stopped working. The system works through wifi - strangely enough - but everything else works. Keyboard and gamepad buttons. The manufacture says the things doesn't work on linux and so far I have proved them wrong.
But now the mouse is just out right dead no matter what I do. Have looked into mouse autosuspend but no avail so far. My suspicion is systemd but that is as good as any guess.
Running 3.14-2-amd64.
This is my dmesg.
Code:
Select allroot@cryptserv:/home/dencrypt# dmesg | grep Cideko

I recently moved into my room-mates house and her wireless was not secure as I was able to log on to it unsecured with my Fedora 12 Laptop. After Securing it with WPA all the windows computers had no problem getting back on to the now secure wireless. Using GNOME I went to SYSTEM then PREFERENCES and NETWORK CONNECTIONS and clicked on the wireless tab and configured wireless security tab and configured for WPA WPA2 Personal. No problems. But when I go to the gnome tool bar and click on the network and see our SSID it wants to use WEP 40bit and others methods but has no selection for WPA.

I've just started with my first Linux build (F10) dual booted with my Windows XP for the time being. What I want to do is upgrade to F11+KDE before I get everything set up the way I want it because there are bound to be plenty of changes. I just spent ages getting my wireless card set up, I ended up using ndiswrapper and windows drivers and its working fine now.
My question is will I be able to install from F10 to F11+KDE without loosing my wireless settings?

Just attempted to upgrade from 10.04 to 10.10, after having updated everything. Upon completion of the upgrade I was asked to restart, however, when I restarted the PC I was presented with the following:
GNU GRUB version 1.98+20100804-5ubuntu3
Minimal BASH-like line editing is supported. For the first word, TAB lists possible command completions. Anywhere else TAB lists possible device or file completions.

my fedora box was in the process of doing an core upgrade from 2.6.33.6-147.2.4.fc13.i686 to 2.2.33.8-149.fc13.i686 and appeared to have stalled on the selinux part of the update 55% of the way through. Figuring the system wouldn't allows itself to be shutdown till it was ready i told it to do a restart. i'm running 2 raid 1's, 1 for the boot partition and 1 for fedora.End result it wont boot the newer core goes straight here
"
md: invalid raid superblock magic on sdb1
md: invalid raid superblock magic on sdb3
md: invalid raid superblock magic on sda1
[code]...
and the old core boots does a black screen with some text saying ???, then goes blue screen outline of fedora symbol filling in then pulses and shows the symbol and then just sits there.tell me this isn't the end of the os and there is a way to "recover" it or save it somehow.

A few weeks ago I upgraded one of my laptop from Fedora 13 to Fedora 14 (using pre-upgrade). The upgrade went smoothly and no errors appeared. However ever since the upgrade ssh is not working anymore. I've tried various servers inside and outside the local network. I can't contact any of them. In all cases I get:
Code:
ssh: connect to host aaa.bbb.ccc port 22: Connection timed out
I've tried to get more info using the -vvv option form ssh, but it doesn't mean too much to me:
Code:
OpenSSH_5.5p1, OpenSSL 1.0.0d-fips 8 Feb 2011
debug1: Reading configuration data /etc/ssh/ssh_config
debug1: Applying options for *
debug2: ssh_connect: needpriv 0
debug1: Connecting to aaa.bbb.ccc [xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx] port 22.
debug1: connect to address xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx port 22: Connection timed out
ssh: connect to host aaa.bbb.ccc port 22: Connection timed out
Actions so far:
- checked internet connection. No problem there. Another laptop is working fine using the same connection and the same ethernet cable. That laptop is still using Fedora 13, since I didn't want to get stuck without ssh completely.
- checked "messages" log. No messages at the time of ssh connect attempt.
- checked "secure" log. No messages at the time of ssh connect attempt.
- checked the firewall settings. The settings are exactly the same as before the upgrade (when ssh was still working). Moreover, the settings are the same as the other laptop that is working.
- temporarily switched off the firewall. No difference.
- temporarily switched off selinux. No difference.
So it doesn't seem to be a firewall or selinux problem. And I know the connection is working, so it does not seem to be a routing problem either. What am I missing here?
System specs:
- Asus EEE PC (1 GB RAM, intel atom processor);
- Fully up-to-date Fedora 14 (kernel 2.6.35.13-91.fc14.i686)

Can I upgrade from Fedora 9 to fedora 10 from a wireless connection? What I want is to upgrade without using a cd or usb device. I would like to use yum or packagekit. Can it be done? I just don't have any device or cd/dvd with me.

I have upgraded Intel Core2 Duo (Macbook Pro laptop) system to Fedora 15. I believe I have the proper firmware driver installed for my wireless network adapter. In Gnome I can click on the network status icon and select my wireless network, however nothing happens after that. Fedora does not prompt for my wireless network password, and no network connectivity is established. What can I do that would get my system to connect to the wireless network?

I have been running Ubuntu 9.10 for a while now. Today, I ran updates on my computer and also requested the upgrade to 10.04. Unfortunately, a few hours into it my computer hung. I had no choice but to reboot. When I did so the computer started a 10.04 screen and then went to a 'command line' for me to login. I am able to login, however, all i have is the 'command line'. What can i do now? Can I restart the upgrade from the 'command line'?

i am an ubuntu nooby, out of curiosity i installed ubuntu 11.04 alpha3 last night. Yes, i will definitely never install an alpha version unless i wish to test it! Frankly said, i first installed 386 version on a notebook which runs just fine. So I thought why not install the 64 bit version on my pc.
Unfortunately, the system did not finish the first reboot in order to complete the installation. First it always stopped at "checking battery state". There, I read that this bug is already fixed: [URL]... I came across this thread: [URL]... So I pressed Alt +F2 in order to log in and performed sudo apt-get update followed by sudo apt-get upgrade. Everytime there was a new update I hoped, that this will fix the issue. But when I shutdown the system with sudo shutdown now -h and restart again there is no progress.The only thing that changed is that the system no stops at "Stopping userspace bootsplash", whatever that means?

I just completed upgrading from F10 to F12. I had a few problems but now everything works just perfect, except my Apache server does'nt execute the PHP pages on the web-server. The php-pages use to work just fine. I have Apache/2.2.13 (Unix), with PHP 5.3.0 (cli) (built: Nov 17 2009 19:19:17). I tried to remove alle PHP rpm-packages and install them again with no luck.
I have checked the httpd.conf file and it include the following lines:
AddType application/x-httpd-php .php5
AddType application/x-httpd-php .php
AddHandler application/x-httpd-php .php
and
LoadModule php5_module modules/libphp5.so
I get a msg. from the last line, that the php5 module is already loaded.
I have restarted httpd-service. I have the following php modules installed:
php-devel-5.3.0-7.fc12.i686
php-cli-5.3.0-7.fc12.i686
php-common-5.3.0-7.fc12.i686
php-5.3.0-7.fc12.i686
php-pdo-5.3.0-7.fc12.i686
php-mysql-5.3.0-7.fc12.i686
Seems that in the new versions of PHP/Apache with F12 you need to write:
<?php .....?> and not just <? ... ?>

I have used preupgrade to moved from fc14 to fc15. With fc14 I had my two usb 3.0 ports working. However, with fc15 my usb 3.0 ports are disabled. I have read the instruction at the common fc15 bugs doc and removed the kernel parameter xhci.enable=1 and also erased the file /etc/pm/config.d/xhci. Still the usb 3.0 ports are not working. I am using kernel 2.6.38.6-26.rc1.fc15.x86_64. I cannot use the 2.6.38.6-27.fc15.x86_64 since there no nvidia drivers for it.

I'm running Fedora 15 KDE on a Sony Vaio VPCS13V9E. No problems in connecting to the wlan. Today I upgraded the system. There was an upgrade for Network Manager. After the upgrade the system is not able to connect to the modem - router (Linksys WAG320N) any more. Network manager keeps on crashing and sends messages like "network disabled" or "connection failed". Kde demon is reporting errors too. I guess the new version of Network Manager is bugged, because before the upgrade it did work well ... (unbelievable!).

I've been using fedora on my Lenovo R61i since I got it...I believe the first version I used on this laptop was f10. I always try to keep it on the latest distro and I also enjoy a clean install every year or so. One thing I was always impressed with was how quickly I could go from sleep to back up and online. So I decided it was time for a clean install this weekend to fedora 15. Now when I wake it up (open the lid), it takes over a minute for the wifi to connect again. This hasn't been the case for the last 4 distro's so I'm wondering what I can do to speed that process back up, is there a particular package I can downgrade or is this something on their radar already and I should just wait for an upgrade?

I upgraded from kernel-2.6.38.6-27.fc15.x86_64 to kernel-2.6.38.7-30.fc15.x86_64. After the upgrade I no longer have a wireless interface in Network Management. I have a broadcom BCM4312, booting the previous kernel solves this problem.

I had a working ubuntu 8.04.x system. I ran the update manager to upgrade to 10.04.1 LTS. Everything seemed to run fine up to the point where it needed a restart. Upon restart, it spews out a stream of log messages, changes the font of the log messages already displayed, and then the screen goes blank and the system does not respond to keyboard or mouse. It appears as if the system is trying to set up the monitor and messes up.
If I ESC into grub after BIOS boot, I have the option of booting two different kernels: 2.6.32-27-generic and 2.6.24-28-generic. The original ubuntu 8.04 kernel was 2.6.24-24-generic(though I did do some updates might that be the 24-28 kernel?).
Booting the 32-27 kernel results in the behavior described above.
Booting the 24-28 kernel produces a stream of log messages that scroll past to fast to read and drops into ash. One of the last messages is: !ALERT /dev/disk/by-uuid/ xxxxxx does not exist -which is true because there is very little in the /dev directory.

I modified the slackbuild script as per normal. Then issued the following command which seemed to succeed. But when I try to play utube movie it says flash is not installed.
