Fedora :: X Refuses To Load After Update On 12
Mar 13, 2010
I installed my updates this morning, except for the nss packages which refused to work. So I just installed the other packages and left the nss package. When I rebooted my computer X would not load. I managed to track down an error by typing "startx" from the command line:
Code:
symbol lookup error: /usr/lib/libXi.so.6: undefined symbol: XESetWireToEventCookie
All I did was update my computer and have not done anything else to the system. Also, I found this: [URL] And I can not but notice that the version of libX11 available from yum is not 1.3.3. Could there have been a packaging error with the updates?

just tried to install today's Firefox 4 update but fails, either using Fedora's default installer or Yumex.The download and installation seem to take place successfully but it don't,with the update remaining "available" in the update tools. I just ran a manual installation and this is what I got:
Code:
[root@Hogar ~]# yum update
Loaded plugins: appmarket, fastestmirror, presto, refresh-packagekit, remove-

I created an Ubuntu 10.4 iso with the kickstart cfg on it, trying to boot it with the ks=/cdrom/pathtoconfig (tried even ks=cdrom:/path) parameter in VirtualBox but it refuses to load the file and just launches the generic install.

I was in Ubuntu when I dropped my laptop, which resulted in a cracked screen. I loaded Windows (Vista), and found it and the files to be unharmed. On my attempt to load Ubuntu, it takes me to a GRUB screen, where it gives me a default message about GRUB. If I try the command "exit" it replies "No bootable device -- insert boot disk and press any key. It's installed on the same hard drive as Windows (dual boot setup), and Windows works fine. I do have files I would like to get off of Ubuntu (if it is unrecoverable),

I'm using Ubuntu 11.04 - the Natty Narwhal Update Manager shows me that there are 18 updates available for my system. After putting in my password, the updates appear to start, but then I get the message that the updates would "Requires the installation of untrusted packages" and just quits. The first update is for the Document Viewer evince. It is from Ubuntu, yet the Update Manager claims it is an "untrusted package."

I dual boot windows xp and ubuntu 10.04 LTS and the wireless card works perfectly fine in xp so I know its not a hardware/network issue. In ubuntu, it detects wireless networks, will connect to network and work for about 20 seconds.

and it continues on after this alternating between a normal 20ms and high ping over 200ms. The connection refuses to load anything off the internet/local network.

28/12/2009 I installed Ubuntu minimal AMD64 and followed the following guide to install it as an HTPC using XBMC. Note that that date was after XBMC's 9.11 official release.[URL]...give and take really minor adaptions, since the guide is not entirely 1 on 1. The process installed XBMC Beta 1 though.
Now, when I do:
- sudo apt-get update / upgrade
The result is:
Code:
The following packages have been kept back:
[Code]...
libsdl1.2debian-alsa: Conflicts: libsdl1.2debian-pulseaudio but 1.2.13-4ubuntu4 is to be installed.libsdl1.2debian-pulseaudio: Conflicts: libsdl1.2debian-alsa but 1.2.13-4ubuntu4 is installed. sudo aptitude -> g -> results in a list of 45 files which will be automatically removed. Some of these are libvdpau1, pkg-config, pmount, xinit, xserver-common, xserver-xorg, *-core, *-input-all, *-evdev, *-mouse, *-synaptics etc. A lot of which are needed as aptitude reports by the package xbmc-common, which I suppose XBMC needs to operate.
I do not want to "autoremove". I did that before and that resulted in having a corrupted system and hence the new installation of 28/12. Any idea what is wrong? Why wasn't the official release installed and was Beta1 chosen instead? Why does Aptitude propose to have all these necessary packages deleted? And of course, why am I not able to upgrade to XBMC's latest and final version? How can I?

Firefox refuses to recognize the upgrade--in existing user accounts only! I created a new account & Firefox picked the upgrade right up. I'm ready to reinstall Firefox or start with all new user accounts--but either option seems to be extreme overkill.
Ubuntu 10.04 LTS
Firefox 3.6.8
Adobe Flash Player 10.1 r82 (old accounts are stuck at 9.x)

I have a problem with my Fedora 14, only on Fedora 15. Been out of my home for a week, when I arrived home and turned the PC on first thing I made was the update, as usual. But when I reboot or shutdown the PC and when I go to do login, the Fedora get's stuck and doesn't show me the login window to insert my login. Made a clean install and it worked fine, until I made the last updates and it became again, stuck before the login window appears. Is there any update making this? What could be? It must be some update, because when I made the clean install it worked fine, and with the first update also worked fine.

I've found the following irritating problem with the default update applet in 11.4 (the one available in 'Software Management' in the KDE system settings):
Applet prompts to update the system, click Apply updates
Accept licence agreement for flash player update
The applet goes back to listing the available updates - ie. it doesn't run the update The workaround is to untick the flash player update, run the other updates and then do the flash player update by itself.

I'm having a problem loading websites after a yesterday's "yum update" on F13. Before that everything worked fine but now when I open a browser, websites only load for about 2 seconds, after which any website I open just goes into a constant loading loop. I tried disabling the IPv6, as some threads suggested but it didn't help and pages still won't load. It happens on Opera and Firefox, so the problem seems not to be browser related. The connection is fine too, as I it works ok under Windows.

I just fired up Rhythmbox and threw all my MP3s into it.. but whilst it plays files, the slider bar just refuses to move, so there is no way to seek through an mp3.
How can I fix this? It's kinda useless without seeking for me.. all those long mixes.

Proftpd has been running OK until recently, when I tried to connect using my laptop. All I get is the proftpd-socket file under /var/run/proftpd/ I cant' find any log files with error messages in them. I have checked /var/log/messages - nothing in there either. I have rebooted the machine after re-installing proftpd. Still it wont start Is there any way to find out why proftpd has decided not to start any more?

I have 2 HDs, an old one with LVM (sda) with two partitions, sda1 and sda2, and the new one without LVM (sdb). I want to format the old sda device. I tried with sfdisk, but it says that the sda is busy:
But there is no call in /etc/fstab to sda, I did a /sbin/swapoff -a, and this is the output of df:
lsof tells me no one is using sda, sda1 or sda2.
So, why does sfdisk refuse to work?

I have a set up with a computer that has two network cards and is connected to two networks. Both networks connect to the internet via separate routers that have DHCP enabled. I can set one of the routers up to do port forwarding to the computer without any complications but if I want to do the same on the other router the port forwarding from it doesn't work and I can't reach the system.
I know for a fact that the services are accessible from both networks and both routers can forward ports to other computers in their network. The networks are 10.10.0.1/24 and 172.22.0.1/24. I've tried turning off iptables but that didn't change anything.
Is there any kind of setting that could prevent the interface on the computer to reject traffic using NAT or something?
If I disable the interface on the working network (ifdown eth1) then suddenly eth0 on the other networks starts accepting requests sent to it via the router that does the port forwarding. I do however want to emphasize that services work just fine as long as the requests originate from either of the networks they are on.

I am a new to linux. I recently purchased a used dell d820. It has 2 gigabites of ram, and has centrino duo. The hard drive is 80 gigabites. I used boot and nuke to erase windows xp, in order to install linux. (I was quite unhappy with the screen, codec, and other problems I was having with windows.)
However, each time I try to install Fedora, or any other version of linux to the hard drive, the computer shuts down ENTIRELY.
Is there a way to fix this? I seems like my machine just doesn't like linux?

I am having problems with with a Satellite Pro L500 and FC13. The laptop has a Realtek RTL8192SE wireless adapter, which runs under Win 7 that it came with, but refuses to show itself under FC13.
When I run lshw it shows me:
I looked on the web and this forum for clues and someone suggested installing kmod-ndiswrapper. So I installed the yum rpm-fusion repository and an ndiswrapper for my kernel ------ and nothing's changed.
When I do an lsmod I get:
I've been a Fedora Core bunny since FC3 but I've only recently discovered the wonders of wireless networking and this one has me stumped. I don't fancy being reduced to Windoze when I work from home!

I had Fedora 7 and Windows Vista dual booting on my computer. I just installed Fedora 10. When the live CD asked me where to install it, I chose "Remove all Linux Partitions and create default layout" The installation went perfectly, but now when reboot my computer, it boots directly into Fedora; GRUB does not load to ask me which OS I want to load. I know I did not overwrite Vista because I can still view my Vista files through Fedora. Here is my grub.conf file:

What do I need to do to make GRUB load again upon booting?

I have a strange problem with evolution in Fedora 14. I run my own mail servers (Postfix and Dovecot) on localhost. This all worked great in F13 but now evolution refuses to connect to the localhost imap server. If I connect from my laptop (also F14) i.e. not from the localhost all works fine and great with evolution. I deleted all the config and started again to no avail. I also created a new user and logged in with this user and I still get the same so looks not to be user config issue.
evolution --debug=evo.debug.txt returns nothing useful.
Dovecot is listening on localhost as I can telnet to the imap port. Also other imap clients like Thunderbird work fine.

I installed F11 x86 from the DVD onto one of my machines using a total of 4 partitions:
1. /boot
2. /
3. /home
4. swap
I then created an image of the first 3 partitions with fsarchiver and restored it onto a second machine (with different hardware). Grub was loaded onto the second machine as well without a problem. The new cloned install will get past grub fine but the kernel hangs. After removing 'rhgb quiet' from the boot options, I can see that the last message outputted to the console is something about the PS/2 mouse - this doesn't make sense as the mouse is working perfectly fine.
Additionally, I can still reboot using ctrl-alt-delete so the kernel/CPU must still be responsive. I have tried troubleshooting the various pieces of hardware, so I'm guessing it's something with the clone. All the cloned filesystems appear to be fully intact; the partition UUID's are all the same. I've even tried changing the UUID's both in grub and /etc/fstab to hardcoded /dev/sdaX , but this does not fix anything.

I allowed the UNR on my wife's Asus 1000H netbook to update to 10.04 and even updated since but the GRUB menu screen just keeps reloading itself if I select XP. We still need XP... at least for the time being. We can access the NTFS partitions still.
Now if I download UNR and do a clean install will that fix it?
Should I just remove the HDD and reformat it completely on another computer and reinstall both OSs?
Should I reinstall UNR 9.10? (I've heard there are power consumption problems with 10.04 anyway.)

I installed a load of recommended updates yesterday and shut down my system last night. Tried to start it again this morning and it won't load for me. The wallpaper appears, but no GUI (no top or bottom bars) and no cursor. The only thing I've managed to do is Ctrl+Alt+Del to open the hibernate/shut down/reboot options.

I was told to use this command for an update. It took about an hour. After it was done I restarted and now I can't start my VNC server. -Using a VPS btw. Normally on a fresh boot it uses around 15mb of ram a little less now it's stuck at 2mb - 4mb. When I try to start the VNC it goes to about 9mb which is supposed to go around 350 to 400mb.

I recently began using Ubuntu 11.04, having a dual boot setup alongside Windows 7. Everything worked perfectly fine until the last update of Ubuntu occurred. After the update I rebooted my system (as you do) to "Ubuntu, with Linux 2.6.38-10-generic." When I do this it does one of two things: a) the Terminal loads and the cursor sits there blinking boringly achieving nothing and doing nothing the OS does not get very far into loading. Or b) A number of checks run automatically then pause and it goes nowhere and I'm left with a screen full of System checks. So, what I do is I load a previous version of Ubuntu "Ubuntu, with Linux 2.6.38-8-generic" and this loads no trouble.
