Fedora :: Low Signal Warning Is Driving Nuts?
Apr 6, 2011
A week or so ago there was update to Fedora 14 that affected the wlan settings. Since then I keep getting a "low signal on..." warning. This flashes up at least every five seconds. I KNOW I have a low wi-fi signal! I don't need constantly reminding of it. Is there any way I can turn this warning off? I am using KDE4.6.1.

I for the life of me is having a hard time with some scripting in Dash with branching statements. What the heck? I read many tutorials all over the net and none of the codes work. They suggest all sorts of variations, but it ain't working for me. Can anyone tell me why the code below always return "Y"?
Code:
#!/bin/sh
clear
echo -n "---> Enter Y or N? "
read answer
if [ "$answer"="Y" ] ; then
[Code]...
Perhaps someone can give me a short explanation on how if statements work? So far my linux experience has been nothing, but a frustrating mess.

I have Evolution set up to monitor three GMAIL and five AOL email accounts. On all of them I have the servers set up correctly and all the right settings to check email 65-75% of the time. But for some reason, even though I have the "Remember this password" box checked for all of my AOL accounts, it will ask me over and over and over and over and over and over again for the passwords for all of my AOL accounts. The GMAIL accounts seem to work flawlessly.
I know that I have the correct passwords because I am cutting and pasting from a text file with known working passwords. And sometimes it will accept the passwords and everything is happy. But other times (like tonight) I can put in the passwords six or seven times for each account and it still gets all pissy. I can close and reopen evolution and re-enter the passwords and it still sits there in a seemingly endless loop of asking for the password.
Is there anyway to convince it to remember my passwords and NOT ask me for them again? I don't care if it writes an entry to a log file saying that logging into the server failed. I don't care if it flashes a little light or plays an annoying chime or something everytime it fails. But I swear I am an inch away from putting my fist through my monitor if it keeps popping up the g.d. dialog asking for my passwords every six seconds! I would switch back to Thunderbird in a heartbeat if the mailbox formats were compatible.

I get the following each time using "terminal":
tourdog@PJK3:~$ gksu nautilus Initializing nautilus-gdu extension

The "root - File Browser" comes up and it all seems to work but "what's up with the 3 warnings"?

Upgraded my 11.2 system to 11.3 today. Can't login anymore using gdm or xdm login window. The password prompt is displayed but no chars are echoed in the password field. when you click Login, it displays "Authentication failure" in the window. The logged messages in the /var/log/messages for the gdm-greeter are:
gdm-simple-greeter: GLib-GObject-WARNING: gsignal.c:2273: signal 'dialog-hidden' is invalid for instance '0x81299b8'

Note that I can login at init level 3 as root of the user I"m attempting to login with in the gdm window.

I am about to upgrade my wife's PC from FC12 to FC14. The DVD boots OK and the disk check passes OK. The installer get to the point that it says 'Running Anaconda' (or words to that effect), then the screen is cleared, a brief flash of garbled graphics appears at the top of the screen, then all goes blank.
If I select the option to install using a basic video driver, I get the expected installation screens appearing centred but scaled down within the display, as though the image was a 640x480 window in, say, a 1024x768 display (those figures are guesses, but give the right idea).
I can install this way, but first want to check that this will not leave me with a scaled-down display when I boot to FC14. In other words, will FC14 recognise my (elderly) video card correctly, even though the installer does not?
The machine is running fine under FC12 and I did not strike this problem when I upgraded it to that version.
I have tried the upgrade using two different DVD images, in case one had a fault that the disk check did not pick up.

I upgraded my Asus Eeepc 900a to 10.4 yesterday. Since then, Xorg has averaged between 30-40% CPU, and my fans have gone nuts running high/low/high/low, ad nausium.
Any ideas what might be going on? Another clue perhaps: on reboot or shutdown, I get a "program not responding" message with "unknown" as the hung program. I have not been able to determine what this program is or if it is related to the hyperactive Xorg.

I'm using xubuntu 9.10. NOT ubuntu server. I need to install a lamp server on my box. I cannot install a new OS like ubuntu server, have to use what I got.when I run apache2, I get:
Quote:(98)Address already in use: make_sock: could not bind to address 0.0.0.0:80
no listening sockets available, shutting down Unable to open logs I've changed the port that php listens too to 8080, 81, and I get the same message but with the new port number.
I've removed and installed apache three times, read all kind of threats on the web, but cannot find the solution! it's just driving crazy.

I've been trying to get it to work on my laptop off and on for several years now, experimenting first with Redhat (version 6.1, I think) and now trying with Ubuntu 9.04. I've done a full install using the entire hard drive (no dual boot). So I'm trying it for real this time. I'm having a problem with my video drivers. The video is ok (not great) and I don't seem to have any options to adjust it.
When I go into system > preferences > display, I see monitor "unknown", set at 1024x768 with a 75 Hz refresh. If I click on "detect monitors" nothing happens. It says under system > administration > hardware drivers that "no proprietary drivers are in use on this system". I've got two options:
[code]...
For the first part of boot, I have access, but then when it comes up into Ubuntu, the big monitor (a Dell 2500, I think, plugged into the stock Toshiba docking station via DVI) quits working, and all I have is a dim picture (dark, like something's sapping power from it) on the laptop display.....

I recently installed Fedora 12 -- a brand new install, not an upgrade. The system was previously using Fedora 11 without any problems. Fedora 12 installed without any issues, and I haven't really done any customization to it. I am running KDE. The system is hooked up a KVM switch.
When I am on system #2 (a Windows system) and I switch back to system #1 (Fedora) after a few minutes of time, the Fedora screen will be blank and the monitor will present an "input signal out of range" error. I can SSH into the box and kill X to get the screen back. This has not happened on this system with any previous versions of Fedora that had been running on it (everything since Fedora 7).

I'm depressed. Neither the compiled nor the rpm works well for me. After installing via the two methods refer to [URL] (MY os is fc13.i686) and I get the same error below when I play wmv:mplayer *.wmv. I really didn't know why.

- MPlayer crashed. This shouldn't happen. It can be a bug in the MPlayer code _or_ in your drivers _or_ in your gcc version. If you think it's MPlayer's fault, please read DOCS/HTML/en/bugreports.html and follow the instructions there. We can't and won't help unless you provide this information when reporting a possible bug.

The solution is to select a another video driver via appending parameter: "-vo gl_nosw " in command.
[ahui@ahui-host ~]$ mplayer -vo gl_nosw 33.wmv
Now I can successfully use my KMplayer to play these special wmv files via these configuration below:
click:setting->configure kmplayer->general options->output
Then set the video driver to OpenGL MT

Is there a way to keep a wireless AP from generating an RF signal at all until it gets pinged by a client which:
1) Knows it's (the AP's) IP, name, passcode, and operating port,
2) Knows which frequency, and periodic ping-rate to use,
3) And, identifies itself not only appropriately, and timely, but only pings twice before it falls silent, awaiting a response, all others would over run the limit, and thusly fail the AP screening and the AP would totally ignore them, logs the attempts, and stays cold, dark, and silent.
In short, only one (1) device is capable of turning it on.
Seems to me that conceptually, it's quite do-able. Has it been done?

I'm trying to install Fedora 10. I'm booting from a CD, and the installation gets as far as those 3 progress bars in the very beginning. As soon as they all load, my monitor goes black and starts flashing a "DVI Input Out Of Range" warning. That's all.
I'm using a
nvidia geforce 8800 gtx
and the Planar PX3611W monitor.

I had the following problem while i installed fedora on my machine: The boot record was normally read from the installation CD and the boot screen appear, (up to this moment my Graphic Adapter is going fine) then i select the first option (which is the default as well) to boot fedora from the CD, and suddenly my monitor inform me that there is no input signal. I think it might be some driver problem, but my adapter is pretty common i think (NVIDIA GeForce 9600 GT), so its not very likely.
Things i have to note:
1. My Adapter is working on my Windows installation.
2. I manage to install fedora by removing my GeForce 9600 GT and using the on board Graphical Card from my main board.

I am currently working on "Creation of Postmortem data logger in Linux on Intel architecture. Its nothing but core utility creation. how the signal handlers for various signals(SIGSEGV,SIGABRT,SIGFPE etc) which produce core dump upon crashing an application internally implemented in Linux kernel. I need to re-write these signal handlers with my own user specific needs and rebuild the kernel. It makes my kernel producing the core file (upon crashing an application) with user specific needs like showing registers,stackdump and backtrace etc.

I've got a "little" problem with fedora 13: dual head with nouveau is not working. gnome-display-properties recognizes two displays and i can configure it (left, right, mirroring, ...) but first display is always in standby. Seems it doesn't get a signal from graphics controller. Desktop seems to work fine (can move the mouse pointer on the other screen into "the black hole"). I use Fedora 13 x86_64.

I've always used SSH to get to my Linux server and decided to figure out VNC. I've got VNC installed just fine and was logged, then I click Exit on the VNC screen and all hell broke loose. So I'm left with a gray useless screen, so I though I would kill the process. Did a ps -aux | grep vnc and saw what is running Then did a vncserver -kill :1 and vncserver -kill :2 Then typed vncserver
Now I'm getting Warning: blahblahblah:1 is taken because of /tmp/.X1-lock Remove this file if there is no X server blahblahblah:1 Warning: blahblahblah:2 is taken because of /tmp/.X2-lock Remove this file if there is no X server blahblahblah:2 So per the man pages I need to go here $HOME/.vnc and kill something. So How do I get to $HOME/.vnc? Is this a hidden location? I'm thinking I need to do a kill -9 .X1-lock per the above Warning message but where is that?
