I have a problem with Network Manager ....Activate , Deactivate & Delete Buttons are invisible (have a silver colour) ...!
So, i can't connect to the internet .....by the modem ...! (dial-up). _wvdial in terminal doesn't work fine
I had installed Fedora 12. I am using 4 LAN Cards. All these cards were configured using network manager, but i am not able to acivate /deactivate these cards using acivate /deactivate buttons since they got disabled. I could activate the cards by running /etc/init.d/restart network. Anyone knows why the acivate /deactivate buttons in network manager are disabled .

Network manager sees the connection when I click on 'edit connections'. Which files do I need to edit to sort this out, or do I need to print here to help find a solution?
View 1 Replies View RelatedIn Fedora 12 Network Configuration tool the Activate and Deactivate buttons are disabled.I thought that this was due to Network Manager overriding it but I've disabled that in order to set a static ip but the buttons are still disabled.

Does anybody know how to activate it again (terminal-based command or etc)? See my attachment, i made a circle sign on the missing network-manager.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have this old eMachines on which I've been running RedHat for about 7 years. It is kernel 2.4 and I wanted to upgrade to a newer kernel so I can run a newer version of some server software I use.
I was debating whether to upgrade to Fedora 12 or Ubuntu, and some other person recommended, "definitely Fedora" so here I am.
The CD-ROM downloaded fine. I was able to boot and install Fedora fine. But I'm stuck at the network settings.
None of the screens *quite* match what is in the quick or detailed installation guide at the Fedora site.
The main problem I have is I'm trying to manually set a couple of fixed IP addresses. I am in "Editing System eth0" now. If I switch the method from "Automatic" to "Manual" the Apply button turns greyed out, and stays that way even after I enter the address, netmask, gateway (router address I assume?) and a DNS server address.
Installed Fedora 11 yesterday and was trying to use the Admin->Software Update but initially it complained about no connectivity (this is happening even though I was able to browse the web via FireFox!). So I went to Admin -> Services, and restart the Network Manager. It was then able to download about 250 updates. However, when I clicked on Install after the download, it says it was disconnected. When I went into Admin->Networking, I found out that the eth0 interface is Inactive. However, the Activate button is greyed out. I have been searching in the User Guide, the FAQ, the bugs section and have been unable to find out how to fix this. If I goto the command prompt, and typed in "ifconfig" I can also see that there is no IP and no packets transferred.
View 5 Replies View RelatedI've been running F10 since it first came out, and I was happy to see it was the first Fedora release that automatically recognized my Atheros wireless card. I have to run system-config-network and press the "activate" button when I start the machine, but that's ok and no big deal. But today, for whatever reason,in system-config-network, the "activate" and "deactivate" buttons are grayed out and I cannot start the device so I have no network access. When I boot the machine into Windows, it works fine.

When i wan to activate device in network configuration, it pop out with "CANNOT ACTIVATE NETWORK DEVICE ETH0". There is a sentence after this also : "rlt8129 device eth0 does not seem to be present, delaying initialization."

View 4 Replies View RelatedThe specs on my Pavilion DV6 says it has a 5650 Radeon HD card.lspci shows:01:05.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc M880G [Mobility Radeon HD 4200]02:00.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc Redwood [Radeon HD 5600 Series] (rev ff)TWO cards? Currently the first one shows up in the system information but, knowing it has a 5600 series card,I'm guessing the laptop has a cheaper model with a 4200 integrated card where mine has a 5650 added...thus both showing up. I need to figure out a way to ignore the 4200 card and use the second.
Both drivers are contained in the same package from Radeon. The system information shows VESA:M880G as the driver. How do I go about blacklisting the M880G driver so the other one ('Redwood', guessing from the content of the lspci output) can be loaded?Or am I completely wrong about what needs to happen here? I do not see anywhere in the bios where I can deactivate the 4200 chip.[edit] After checking the specs on the laptop (and it's other derivates), i twould seem that there is no 4200 series card on any of the cheaper machines....no sure hwat gives. I've downloaded some stuff on X and see if I can create a xorg.conf that will load the appropriate driver.
I'm likely going to remove the akmod proprietary drivers and go with the open source 'radeon' for a while to see how it goes.[/edit]EDIT 2:The thing thats going on here is 'hybrid graphics' which I had heard of in desktop but didn't realize that it was in laptops.There is currently work going on to get the configuration working properly. The 4200 card is supposed to run when on batteries and switching automatically to the 5650 when the power is plugged in.
I had trouble connecting to a wireless network with openSUSE, so I tried the YAST network manager to see if that fixed it. Not only did it not fix it, but now I cannot connect to any network, wired or wireless. I tried to open the default network manager and it said "Network management disabled". How do I re-enable it?I also have set YAST settings back to their originals with no luck.

View 2 Replies View RelatedToday upon booting my Xubuntu 9.04, I see that all new windows I open have their title bar missing and on top of my pannel menu. If I try to run windows manager from the menu, nothing shows up on the screen. Therefore I think my windows manager is not running at all. I have no graphic effects and dont want any. I noticed that nothing shows up on the task bar (bottom bar) when I have anything opened up in the desktop. Can't minimize, can't click close button, ...How do I fix this ? I followed a thread to install Compiz and emerald just so I could get it to work but I do not like this option. I do not want any special effects. The more effects/options I have the more possible problems I may get. By the way I also have this problem on my office Ubuntu 10.04. Both started having this problem recently. I suspect it is an update that was done that is causing this.

View 2 Replies View RelatedWhen installing Samba and Webmin I use the application "system-config-services" or (if it is easier to find for you that way) menu->Administration->Service management. In this application I can start the services I need (nmb, smb, webmin), but the enable/disable at startup setting is greyed out... Even when I start the application as root it still gives me no possibility to configure the services to start up on boot. This should be possible. It works this way in Fedora 13 and Fedora 14, so why not in Fedora 15?
Before reporting a bug, I would like to ask if other users here have the same problem (and -if possible- a solution)... In the mean tim I guess it is back to the old way of configurating services - sigh..
[edit] I tried to remove the [SOLVED] from the title, but the forum software does not seems to allow me to do that... I thought it was solved by installing xinetd, but I was happy a bit too early. I still have no answer for this problem.
