Some of your private key files are encrypted for security reasons. In order to read them you have to provide us with the pass phrases. Server your.server.com:55 (RSA)
Enter pass phrase:
Server www.blahblahblah.com:55(RSA)
Enter pass phrase:
How to login ?
The cursor is blinking but I am unable to enter the pass phrase; the only thing I can do is press the power button to shutdown. Even if I leave the PC running for a hour I can't type anything.
I know how to resolve the problem if I am able to login.

Ever since I started using KDE as in 4.2, I have been doing this regularly. When I startup KDE, I open Dolphin and click and mount each partition with root pass. I thought it might be some KDE issue as is the ever developing code and will be fine in future updates. But now I'm in 4.2.1 and it still exists. Upon inquiring fellow users on other distros, I have come to believe this is a *Fedora only* issue now. [URL].
View 8 Replies View RelatedSince moving from centos 5.6 to fedora 15 a week ago I have been unable to get Last Pass firefox addon to work correctly. Those of you familiar to last pass will probably have seen the error message before in a variety of situations, namely "An error occurred while attempting to contact the server. Please check your internet connection." This error appears as soon as you log in (which it does manage to do) but instantly loses authentication - seems like the cookie expires almost instantly and therefore all saved sites/passwords require re-authentication with LP to use.
No network configuration has altered since the OS change, but F15 comes with firefox 4 rather than 3.6.x in centos. I know the last pass plugin should work with FF4 and have read suggestions about SSL/TLS version settings (which are 3.0 and 1.0 respectively) and disabling SELinx. Neither of these have made any difference.
I have installed Fedora 14 and everything is ok but i cant figure out how to connect to the internet,everything seems working my wireless card is recognized and it finds networks but i dont know how to configure it.Im using wireless internet with authentication (username & password) but i cant find where to put username & pass.

I am using Ubuntu 10.04 and unable to connect to the internet. I went to System > Administration > Hardware Drivers and a window popped-up: "No proprietary drivers are in use on this system".

Can anyone please recommend a good sound card with a optical out that has Linux drivers? I'm planning on making this an Ubuntu based system and have been looking at getting an X-Fi but there seems to be a lot of posts online about Creative stopping drivers for Linux a few years ago
View 5 Replies View RelatedMy debian system does not have any wifi drivers unfortunately. I suspect highly that the driver is not in the 3.2 kernel so ideally I'd like to update to a newer kernel.. However, the laptop doesn't have a network port and I don't have a network to usb cable. So in other words: updating the kernel offline using a usb stick..
View 2 Replies View RelatedAs the title says, I have tried both of them and they both freeze my system with no apparent reason. They freeze by just looking at them in the fist few minutes after startup and a hard reboot is needed. So I keep coming back to 11.6. Does anyone else have the same problem or is it just my system? By the way I have an HD 6970 in an AMD CPU based system running squeeze. And the reason why I keep installing new drivers and don't stick with 11.6 is a futile hope that anti-aliasing will work with compiz enabled.

I have finally make up my mind to use Linux (Ubuntu 10.04) as the SOLE operating system on my notebook. The last obstacle is that where to find proper drivers for my devices? Such as code...
Could someone give me some advices on where to find these drivers?
How can I get a list of what X video drivers are on my system? Preferably not using a package manager (since I'm not sure I trust it to not miss stuff like the nvidia driver). Googling didn't give anything useful .

Anyway, I cleverly installed the most recent drivers for my graphics card, and it killed Ubuntu - it won't start now. This happens on Windows, too, but Windows will System Restore for me. How might I fix this in Ubuntu?
I can choose Ubuntu from the grub menu, but then the screen goes blank, the fan on my computer goes into overdrive, and nothing happens.

I have tried several times to get Ubuntu to work on my SX3, and I gave it a serious attempt today to see if I could get things working, I'm getting a new hard drive so this is Ubuntu's last chance - for a while at least.
I've gotten past all the minor inconveniences and has it set up like I want it, but my problem is drivers. If I go to System - Drivers I get a grand list of 0 drivers on my system. Things like the touchpad, bluetooth and WLAN are working, but any function keys, brightness control keys etc are useless. In addition it either doesn't have, or is running on really bad drivers for my screen and graphic card. My screen comes up as "unknown" - though it's usable. Scrolling is not a matter of scrolling, but "jumping", and the computer is generally kinda sluggish (which is odd since it's running quite fine on Windows 7) and attempting to play any video file, on any media player - or even ..... - gives you a fps of about 0.1. (sound's working perfectly though)
I noticed some thread about laptops that are incompatible with Ubuntu somewhere, Is there anything that can be done about this or should I just give up and go back to Windows 7? Kohjinsha has drivers for XP, Vista, and 7, as a side-note, if it matters.
