I'm using F11 and I've downloaded and installed kernel 2.6.30.4-25.fc11.x86_64 from koji.
Since I'm dumb.... I've installed with rpm -Uvh kernel* so now I've loose the latest stable fedora kernel...
I've tried to manually download kernel but when I try to install it complains because it's older then the current installed.
How can I restore to kernel 2.6.29?
I recently upgraded to 10.04 on my older laptop. It's causing some unacceptable slowdown. So I'd like to go back to 09.10.

View 7 Replies View RelatedI am running Red Hat 5.5. Yesterday, a simulation software program I was running froze. I attempted to abort the program but the computer was unresponsive. When I attempted to copy my data to an external drive, the computer completely froze. After 30 minutes of not responding, I did a hard shutdown. When the computer rebooted, it appears that it has reverted to a state from 4 days ago. All of the data files that my simulation has created in the last 4 days are gone completely. However, some data that I removed 3 days ago seems to be back on the computer.
I opened some of the "removed" files and they are not corrupt, the data appears as it should. I contacted Red Hat support but all they could tell me is that there is no record of anyone logging into the computer between 4 days ago and when I rebooted yesterday. They claim to have never heard of this problem before. I have had this problem once before on a different computer but the simulation program completely filled the hard drive, which is when it crashed and "reverted" to a previous time. But it looked like I still had 11GB free yesterday when it crashed.
I would like to know how I can get the backspace button on my laptop keyboard to revert to the previous page I was viewing.

Just wondering if anyone would be kind enough to point me to a link for the adobe flash plugin version previous to version 10.1 for i386. I don't have anything in /var/cache/yum/i386/12/adobe-linux-i386/packages/ because I think I cleared yum's cache. I'm experiencing major regressions with flash 10.1, stuttering videos and some videos no longer play. Version 10.1 is a major disaster for adobe. It really is appalling for an update. Also, if anyone else is experiencing flash version 10.1 issues, please share and if anyone is considering upgrading to it, my advice is keep the old one handy, you will likely need it.
View 2 Replies View RelatedMy GMA500 (poulsbo) driver is not working any more because of the latest update I made using Software Update.
The update was a new kernel:
[omass@omass ~]$ uname -a
Linux omass 2.6.30.10-105.fc11.i586 #1 SMP Thu Dec 24 16:26:26 UTC 2009 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux
Now, after this update, when I reboot I get the following error code...
I have a fedora 11 with kernel package: kernel-PAE-2.6.29.6-217.2.3.fc11.i686
I would like to install the devel package for this kernel version, but I can't find it, because in the fedora repo there is only the original kernel (2.6.29.4....) and in the updates repo there is only the newest kernel package (2.6.30....)
Where can I find the packages which are between the fedora and update repos' versions?
Is there an easy way to revert to a previous installation of programs? I installed a couple things and upgraded a couple things that my system didn't like... I could probably try to use /var/log/apt/term.log to try and do it by hand, but is there an automated way to do it?

View 6 Replies View RelatedEver since updating to 9.10 from 9.04 I have been experiencing a logon loop problem. Maybe 1 in 15 tries is successful. When I was able to logon I was not able to mount the multi-boot Hd.. (Windows NTFS, Linux root Sda2, Home Sda3, Swap Sda4, + unallocated space). A error screen told me that I didn't have admin privileges.. Thats incorrect as I'm the only user and logged on at the time. Some other changes I tried also produced the same error. I found some clues on this forum to address the logon issue, and changed my resolution to 1280 x960 and that seems to let me logon each time as needed. But trying to mount the hd still results in the error message.
I cannot use the computer at the current resolution, too hard on the eyes.. (don't know how anyone could). My question is... Since I have the live CD for version 9.04 and that version worked just fine, how should I or do I need to delete ver 9.10 and than reinstall version 9.04? If I run the 9.04 install program will it automatically choose the Sda2 partition, or do I need to precondition and define Sda2 & Sda3, & swap drives again? Will it perform the installation seeing that theres a newer version already on the hd? Also is there a option to uncheck so I won't get any auto-updates because it appears that the newer version is not compatible with my computer.
I've recently installed openSuse 11.4 64bit with KDE 4.6 and that's when the trouble started. If I put a data or mp3 cd in the drive it can be mounted. Simple audio cds refuse to mount, giving me only the option to play on one of the audio players. Since I wanted to move some music to the computer I've had to resort to windows to copy files then transfer them. How can I force KDE/Suse to behave the way I want or do I have to revert to an earlier version with KDE3.5? I suspected that System Settings/Removable Devices was where I needed to be but nothing I did worked. So then I tried playing with System Settings/Device Actions and again nothing seemed to work. I can't mount the CD manually,I get this (using su -c "mount etc"
mount: block device /dev/sr0 is write-protected, mounting read-only
mount: /dev/sr0: can't read superblock
I'm using Ubuntu 10.04 on my computer, I asked a couple months ago here if my PC would run it and it does well, but I believe that not as well as I want to, mainly because of my computer. Right now I have the following:
RAM: 433 MB
AMD Sempron, 1800 MHz 3000+
HD 120 Gb
So I believe that maybe if I change my Ubuntu version to, lets say, 9.10 it will work a little better, because right now the PC have a lot of lag and some other troubles when working with PDF and the GIMP, etc. and I think its mainly because of the low memory. So, what do you think? Should I change my PC to 9.10 or some other previous version of Ubuntu?

The effect is felt with my Webcam - picture is either garbled or blank not responsive at all. all other video functions in my VM's and Suse seem OK! can I revert or set my kernel back to its prior state? If so how? Also I have both "default" and "desktop" kernels - the problem is the same in each. If I can move the kernel back to its state prior to most recent update can I do it to just one of the kernels to see if it solves the problem?
View 4 Replies View RelatedThis is to request assistance or information as to why the evolution application will not accept the evolution-backup-tar.gz file from a previous version.
Situation: I upgraded by way of a fresh install from openSuSE 11.2 to 11.3 (GNOME desktop).
Before upgrading, I produced the above mentioned backup file so that I could import all the mail, addresses etc. into the new application.
Result: it does not work. The process starts up seemingly normal but then simply sits there forever with the message "evolution shuts down" - but it does'nt. I have to kill it to stop it.
I am looking forward to a resolution since it would be a real pity if I lost the mail history.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI am now using ubuntu 10.10. I am going to install ubuntu 11.04 on April 28 (after it is released). I want to preserve:
1) the list of extra programs installed by me on ubuntu 10.10 (I want to install the same programs in 11.04 also)
2) program settings
My questions:
1) From synaptic package manager menu:
File -> Save Markings (save full state, not only changes)
saves in a text file the list of programs installed on my system. I used that file to install the same programs in several computers running ubuntu 10.10. Is there a way to use that list in 11.04 also.
2) Copying the directory ~/.mozilla preserves all settings of firefox from previous installation. Like that what files should be copied for gnome applications (gnome-panel, nautilus, etc.)
I upgraded from 10.10 to 11.04. on boot up I sometimes get only the purple screen freeze and sometimes I actually get to the grub menu. I select the generic kernel and get the black screen freeze. same if I do the recovery mode. but if I get lucky on a reboot and can get the grub menu up again, I select previous linux version and then select 2.6.35 generic and it will boot into 11.04 with Unity. So, how can I get this thing to boot normal with the correct kernel version? I am fairly new to this linux world and don't want to have to go back to windows if I can help it.
