Fedora Networking :: Couldn't Find Any Step-by-step Installation Guides For NM
Jan 23, 2010
My son's desktop has Fedora 12 and a wireless card. Everything worked for a long time until one fine day the network management just disappeared from both System/Preferences menu and the panel on top.I can run a Live CD with Fedora 12 on that machine and it immediately connects to our home wireless network. Booting from hard drive has no sign of NM. Trying to run 'yum install NetworkManager-gnome' does nothing because there is no connection. Running the same command as a LiveUser from CD does seem to install everything (but where to???), no errors reported, and still the is no network functionality upon reboot from the hard drive, even when plugging to LAN with a cable.It seems that I need NetworkManager in order to go online in order to install NetworkManager.I have other computers at home that work fine, I was able to download a couple of archives with NM, but I am new to Linux and have no idea what to do with those files.I could not find any step-by-step installation guides for NM, especially when the computer has no connection at all.

I have read a bajillion tutorials and have gotten nowhere. This is my first Linux box, and it has been nothing but headaches. i'm pretty handy around computers, I took a Unix class, and I used Dos as a kid, but i'm just having so much trouble with this.I just want to remotely control my Ubuntu box from my windows laptop over my home network. That's it. I cannot find one comprehensive step-by-step tutorial that will show me how to do this. Everything I find assumes I know at least something about linux, and I don't.
I have Putty, realvnc and tightvnc viewer installed on my laptop.I have open-ssh and vx11 somethingorotherinstalled on the Ubuntu box. I have also allowed remote connections on Ubuntu from system>preferences. I am getting very frustrated and would really appreciate someone giving me some help. So far I HAVE been able to remotely control the box through one method. Through the GUI on ubuntu I went to: System>Preferences>network connections
and set the server to static IP, then I was able to use real VNC viewer from my windows machine to connect to the IP I set (192.168.0.11) but I couldn't get there through servername.local or whatever it said. The problem witht his solution is that the Ubuntu box then couldn't connect to the internet (which I need it to do.) someone please please please direct me to the information I need for this simple task. I just need to remotely control the desktop, the reason I wanted to use vnc through ssh so that I can leave the ubuntu box headless. Using just VNC I was having problems when the box was rebooted (had to log in before I could remotely control it... something about a security key ring?)

Recent refugee from Ubuntu here. Fedora fan for one month.I have two computers that access the Internet through a router. They are assigned IPs dynamically by the router's DHCP. I need each computer to be able to "see" some shared folder on the other one, with RW permissions to that folder and its content.I want to use Nautilus to access those folders from each computer.
Tried NFS, Samba, gnome-user-share to no avail.
Willing to kill Fedora's firewall forever in order to ease folder sharing.Can some kind and knowledgeable person try a step by step setup guide for this? As an 8-year Linux user I am not afraid of command line interfaces.

Currently, I am setting up multi seat system with Fedora 14 but after hours of searching, i'm still running into some issues. I have managed to edit and get the xorg.conf file working although im still having problems.
I want to set up the multi seat so that 1 server with 2 graphics hards connects to two monitors and have their own sessions. I have got the xsessions working although you can move the mouse across 1 screen to the other. Is there any resources as to step by step for setting up multiseat of fedora 14? Are there any main issues regarding custom.conf?

I run ubuntu, 2 partion, one primary for / , one for /home and ofc swap.When I run the Livecd, at the partition step I do:
-Custom
-Select my / partition to install
-When I select next I get the error "blah blah, must be probably a bug...." and system crashes.
After system crach I can't boot into Ubuntu or anything, it gets me on the "error 11 ( think is 11 ) grub> " screen.Also, I think its something with my nouveau drivers, I think i get an error when boots the LiveCD something like "fudc...". It happens really fast and I can't read it properly.I did this procedure twice to write the errors, but it happens too fast to check them out. Also, is there a way to prepare the system before installing the Fedora, to avoid these errors?

I have tried installing Ubuntu 9.10, 64 and also 32 bit versions, neither works. During the install, I get to the step where the installer wants to bring up and show the partitions but the partitions never appear. If I quit, I am show the Ubuntu live screen where if I bring up Gparted and choose to install on the unused partition (second half of a data drive), the install proceeds but stalls at about 15% partitioning of that space.
I have installed Ubuntu many times before, have used gparted live to resize and create partitions in the past, something seems really amiss this time. And all I can think of is that I now have Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit (quad core AMD processor, 64 bit, 8GB ram; two hard drives, Win7 on the first drive, second drive is data on a partition and an empty unused partition to which I unsuccessfully try to install Ubuntu 9.10.
Is it just Win 7 messing this up? If it is Win7, that is very very disturbing.
I was not even able to get Wubi to work-- in installed, but then when I rebooted and chose to boot into Wubi I got an endless jam up of errors windows on the screen saying there was no "/" root partition.

I can boot up 11.04 amd64 to an sd card, and in the early alphas I could install it fine. Older versions of ubuntu install fine (10.10), too.
But since about beta 1 or so of 11.04 (and with the final release), it boots up and I see the installer and it says, yes, you have enough disk space and so forth. But then I click the 'forward' button to proceed with the install and it just hangs with a spinning cursor.
Any one else have this problem or know a workaround/fix? Or know how I can turn on debug messages or so forth to see where exactly it is hanging?
I'm trying to install to an hp tm2t (no cd drive).

After configuring and everything is going well, Ubuntu stalled in the "Finishing the installation - Setting users and passwords... 25%" step.I verified the download with md5sum after downloading, and checked the CD after burning. I then checked the CD again when booting the live CD. So a bad disk isn't an issue. At first I tried to do the good old "open the CD tray and close it again" trick because the status light wasn't blinking. But the CD drive wouldn't open. (its a SATA CD/DVD drive) After trouble shooting and thinking about what I could do to get it to move forward in the installation, I unplugged the CD drive and plugged it back in again and it seemed to spin back up and read. However its been another 10 minutes and the server is still hanging.Is their anything you recommend I do? I suppose I can start the process over again but I don't want it to stop again, and I would rather it just finish the install since its 2 seconds away from being done.

I can confirm my machine's GLX version is 1.4, and I definitively get the slow down problem, however, after running in a terminal:
Code:
grep "object bytes" /sys/kernel/debug/dri/0/gem_objects
grep: /sys/kernel/debug/dri/0/gem_objects: No such file or directory
What am I doing wrong?
