I installed Nvidia drivers n my Fedora 14 and was working just fine!I also have disabled Nouveau to make it work.But after i changed the selinux to permissive my X no longer loads!
View 1 RepliesTrying to keep selinux enabled. When I start SeLinux Troubleshooter from the menu, which is inautostart as well, It tells me SELinux not enabled, sealert will not run on nonSELinus systems".How do I get SELinux permanently started then
View 10 Replies View RelatedI decided that I'd torture myself and try to get a server up and running with SELinux fully enabled. I so far have figured out virtual hosting, vsftpd, and SSH to work with it nicely, but I can't figure out what to do to get AWstats to be viewable through a browser with SELinux enabled. This is what I get from /var/log/messages:

I configured DNS in my server while That time SELINUX enabled means It show permission denied error and some errors, but i checked all the directory permissions and all its every thing correct only but not worked..At last I just disabled the SELINUX then its working fine.I Heard SELINUX is for security for Linux operating systems, but why i disabled means only its working??
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have installed CentOS and Redhat5 on a LVM partition and selinux is enabled. Both OS's share the same /home partition with one user with the same login(gc) and same uid (1000). The problem I am having is that gc can login with all permissions etc on the OS that was installed first (CentOS). For the redhat OS gc can login but cannot write to the home directory (or startx since X needs to write to Xauthority)Here are outputs - 1st CentOS

i have dual OS in my hard disk. win xp and rhel5. i used use ntfs partition too while working in linux. There is no problem until i enable selinux. When i enabled that, its giving some error at startup and left the partition unmounted. But manually i can mount after logged in. But i need it at the startup itself. How to solve this.i am installed dkms* dkms-fuse* fuse* and fuse-ntfs-3g* rpms to use the ntfs partitions.

Booting with the default label from the 64-bit installation DVD crashes before any user input, with indecipherable text on-screen (text mode, not X11). Symptoms were the same with the Fedora 11 32-bit installation DVD and the Fedora 12 Live 32-bit CD.

I've tried both the x86 and x64 versions of Ubuntu 10.04 and installed the current Nvidia hardware drivers on both. Everything works fine until I enable SLI with the --sli=AFR or --sli=OnOnce SLI is enabled there is extreme flickering relating to anything graphical.Including Compiz effects and any opengl software.Disabling SLI returns the compy back to it's good self.I would love to utilize SLI, however can't seem to find a solution for this bug.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have triplebuffer set up in the xorg.conf, i am using the squeeze Nvidia drivers (the ancient one), installed debian way.
In nvidia-settings, i have enabled all the entries of sync to vblank, but after i log in, if i go a glxgears, i get 1000+fps, then i start nvidia-settings, the screen flickers when it starts for some reason, resolution is still at native (1366x768), after starting and quitting nvidia-settings, starting glxgears made it 60fps.
How to i make sure sync to vblank is forced? i prefer it this way.
I have a strange problem that the X-Server freezes when I log out, switch to another virtual console or the like.
It works fine when I boot the kernel without xen.
The problem reduced to a very simple scenario:
* Boot Xen-Dom0-Kernel
* wait until the X11 display manager wants a login
* Press Alt+Ctrl+Fx
==> X11 freezes
I tried with kde4 and with xdm as display manager, both show the same problem. It does not happen when I boot with the XEN-less kernel.
I am using openSUSE 11.1 with all patches on AMD64 and the nvidia driver. 32bit is not a solution, this machine has 16GB Memory (which would be useless ...)
My old ATI 4850 graphic card died and since everyone keeps saying that Nvidia is the way to go in Linux I got myself a brand spanking new Gainward GeForce GTX 460 "Golden Sample - Goes Like Hell". Yay! Switching from ATI to Nvidia caused me a lot of problems with drivers and crashes though so I decided to reinstall as I have been upgrading Ubuntu for some time now and I guess it couldn't hurt to start from scratch.
This is what my screen looks like:
I don't mind the purple colours in Ubuntu but this is a bit too much
I can still move the mouse pointer around but I cannot do anything except hard reset.
Everything worked just fine with the ATI card and the new card also works 100 % in Windows 7. So far it seems to work without the driver activated but I really would like it to work.
so this is my first post but i have finally gotten linux installed. i currently have debian installed i have 2 different video cards installed
Radeon X600
GeForce4 MX 4000
i know you are probably saying, why in the world do i have an ATI and an NVidia in the same box? because i found one lying around and installed it. i have gotten X to start up and i have a separate X session in each monitor. what i want to do is enable Xinerama but when i put it in to my xorg.conf X wont start at all so basicly i was wondering where the problem lies.i am using the radeon and nv drivers i have read sometimes the nv drivers dont work and also that the module "glx" may also cause problems. i dont want to invest in a bunch of new video cards to get this to work but i just might have to. here is my xorg file

I'm running ubuntu 10.10 I have a Samsung Syncmaster 205BW Monitor and I needed a graphic accelerator to run my science software and to view full screen videos. so I installed the NVIDIA 96.43.19 Driver as recomanded by unbuntu. Well the server installs OK but doesn't completely communicate with my monitor, I'm using GeForce4 MX 440 with AGP8X/AGP/SSE2 Graphic card. I'm unable to set the correct Resolution which is 1680X1050, the driver only list 1280X1024 and doesn't list the correct one.Also the driver Crashes when I try to set the CPU scaling, it's locked on stretch mode. Also when ubuntu loads X it doesn't accept the Xserver settings I have entered in the driver Set Up.The additional driver screen also says the Driver is active but not in use. I sent a bug report to NVIDIA but they never answered me back.
View 2 Replies View RelatedMy amarok crashes everytime. I saw an similar problem posted at OpenSUSE 11.3: Amarok crashes on startup. And I suspect this is because of the nvidia drivers that I installed, just as is the case in the above mentioned thread. What should I do to overcome this now? Is there a solution posted? After I read the above thread, I deleted all the repositories except for the four. I had these following repositories prior:

i've been attempting to get to the bottom of this issue for the past few months, without much luck. i'm currently running 11.3 64-bit (the issue also existed in my previous 11.2 64-bit install) and whenever my laptop is unplugged, the x server will intermittently crash. this issue can be provoked by running flash applications like videos but the same issue will also occur by simply navigating the desktop. the messages log reports the following:
~~~~~
x server for display :0 terminated unexpectedly
~~~~~
the laptop is an alienware m15x with an nvidia gtx 260m. i initially suspected that this was some sort of an acpi issue so i tried disabling acpi for the nvidia card via the "connecttoacpid" xorg option. this did not make any difference so i went as far as shutting down the acpid service. this also did not make any difference. as a quick test, i uninstalled the proprietary nvidia drivers and that seemed to resolve the issue but given the limited functionality of the oss driver, this is not a suitable workaround. keep in mind, i did not run under the oss driver for very long so this result could be just a false positive.
I'm having an issue where the proprietary nvidia driver seems to crash my system. the weird thing is that it only happens if i have already started an X session. here is what i mean. i don't use a display manager so i invoke X by running startx. now if i run it for the first time it starts no problem. but if i kill X with ctrl-alt-backspace and then try to run startx again it just hangs and the machine completely freezes up. this only happens with the proprietary nvidia driver. if i use the vesa driver it works fine. the open-source nvidia driver doesn't seem to support my card: GeForce GT220. i never had this problem with slackware 13 x86. i have tried using the 190.42 version from slackbuilds.org as well as the latest version from nvidia's site 190.53. aside from this problem it seems to work fine otherwise.
View 14 Replies View RelatedI have new hardware and I'm doing a dual boot, hoping that Ubuntu will be my primary OS, but I'm having trouble ringing it out. I installed Ultimate Edition 2.6.1 and in the past with an old machine I could turn on visual effects. With this machine, when I try to, it says it's looking for a driver, blinks a bit and then comes back with a message saying "Desktop visual effects cannot be enabled."
I assume that I don't have the nVidia driver loaded. When I go to Hardware Drivers, it says "No proprietary drivers are in use on this system." In synaptic, the latest driver does not show up. I followed the instructions on this site that someone put up which required adding some lines to the "Blacklist" then purging old drivers. It said to expect an error and what to do then, but I never got the error. When I tried to do the rest of the commands anyway, nothing seemed to happen. One of the steps was to download the latest driver, which I did. It was a .run file...........
I am having an issue with installing OpenSuse 11.2 using an Nvidia 9500GT. I have an AMD X2 64 4200+ processor, 4 gigs of RAM and 250 Gig HD.I was previously using an ATI X1300 but with the issues with 3D and the driver I decided to update my video card. To be clear, OpenSuse installed fine with the ATI X1300 card.
I purchased the 9500GT and installed the card. I then started the 11.2 32bit/i586 install and all goes fine until the install completes. Once you get the warning that the computer is about to restart (after the install completes) the system goes back to the Suse loading screen and then changes to the CLI where I can see what is loading. The last thing I see is that the HAL daemon is starting and then the screen goes black and the system completely locks up.
I have tried this several times using both the 32bit and 64bit KDE versions with the same result. I have tried Mandriva 2010 to see what results I get and it works fine.
I'm running ubuntu 9.10 64 bit (2.6.31-20-generic) on a Z600 HP. My graphics card is Nvidia quadro NVS450. I am using the Ubuntu Nvidia driver 185.18.36. I am experiencing random, daily system freezes where the system has to be manually rebooted. After installing the crash dump packages I am now getting a crash dump file and it's clear the problem relates to my graphics card.
Is this a red herring or the cause of my problems:
(EE) Failed to load /usr/lib/xorg/modules/extensions//libglx.so
(EE) Failed to load module "glx" (loader failed,
(EE) NVIDIA(0): Failed to initialize the GLX module; please check in your X

I'm using the most recent version of Xorg that is available in the Debian repository (unstable) and it flashes the NVIDIA logo and crashes the whole computer immediately after. Ctrl+Alt+F[0-9] do nothing when this happens.
I've tried reverting to an older NVIDIA driver, but they either cause the same issues (27x.y.z) or require version ignoring for ABI (26x.y.z) which leads to a segfault.
I would be fine running vesa for now, but it doesn't support 1366x768 resolution so I either have to deal with a bad resolution or have part of the screen cut off.

I'm running into some problems setting up Tor on Fedora 14. I have followed the following guide to a T (although I realize it is for Fedora 10):orum.org/showthread.php?t=211516.I believe the problem is SELinux... but I'm not sure. Has anyone had any success running Tor in Fedora 14 without it bugging out? If not, is there some sort of Unix alternative?

View 7 Replies View RelatedI came across the following method of how to permanently disabling selinux and it's notifications. Although changing enforcement from the gui into permissive mode does most of the job, the notifications still pop-up when some applications are started.
So to disable it do the following:
open terminal as root and execute:

This is it. Now reboot the system and selinux will never bother you again.
If you are not a Fedora user and you are using this forum just because we are cooler here then you will not find the /etc/selinux/config as in the fedora releases. What you need to do is to edit the kernel boot line and add selinux=0 at the end:

After my cloning problems this morning were resolved, I have been able to complete conversion of the clone to run from an encrypted root partition. However, I have been unable to enable selinux when running from the encrypted root. /etc/selinux/config contains the settings that work on my unencrypted system
SELINUX=enforcing
SELINUXTYPE=targeted
and it is not disabled from the grub bootline, but the encrypted system always comes up with selinux disabled. Attempting to enable it with the command setenforce 1 fails, and to add insult to injury, the selinux administration-gui shows that it is enabled and enforcing. The cloned, now encrypted, system was cloned via rsync -aHXv, so the selinux contexts/attributes have been maintained as near as I can tell. I did have to disable selinux while performing the rsync of the /selinux directory in order to get it to copy and I am wondering if there was still some issue with this method.
I know some of you are running from encrypted root fs's and was wondering: Do you have selinux enabled and is it functioning properly? Any suggestions as to how I might jumpstart it or force it to run? Maybe I should boot into the system and uninstalling/reinstalling selinux?
I just upgraded to fedora 12 via clean install with old /home partition and deleting old config files, and here is my issue. I need to edit the menu, and I need to set SELinux to permissive.

I was able to install with the package manager, and the executable (mapserv) was originally placed in /usr/sbin. But I need it in /var/www/cgi-bin to work on the webserver. So I copied the file to the right location. Unfortunately, it doesn't have the correct SELinux context. Here's the message from the troubleshooter:
SELinux denied access requested by /var/www/cgi-bin/mapserv. /var/www/cgi-bin/mapserv is mislabeled. /var/www/cgi-bin/mapserv default type is httpd_sys_script_exec_t, but its current type is httpd_sys_script_exec_t. Changing this file back to the default type, may fix your problem.
How's that for circular logic? Does anyone have an idea what the correct SELinux context for a cgi-bin executable might be?
I get the SELinux and wine error. How can this be fixed?
