I switched from ubuntu to fedora 13 today only and the problem that I am facing is that I can't update either using software updates or using yum. yum says no repository found and when I saw software sources in Add/Remove Software, I found no repository was enabled. I tried to enable it but it says cannot contact fedora, so this won't be enabled.I am able to surf internet by the way. I am having a LAN connection with a proxy server but i checked those things in it and of course I was able to do updates in ubuntu
When I try to enable any options in the Debian software, Software Sources immediately crashes. I'd like to enable official supported software downloadable from the internet.
Some reason i can't update my sources no matter how many servers i try to update it from it does not work i tryed alot of things like update manager and synaptic package manager and terminal to update but nothing is not working
Could not download all repository indexes The repository may no longer be available or could not be contacted because of network problems. If available an older version of the failed index will be used. Otherwise the repository will be ignored. Check your network connection and ensure the repository address in the preferences is correct.
i can get on the internet fine but the update manager has not worked for 12 days code...
I've got the following problem: I just noticed that there were just very few notifications about updating the system (usually there are damn many of them in a week) So I opened the update manager and clicked on "refresh list". The following result popped up: p,li{white-space:pre-wrap;}E: Error http://ppa.launchpad.net natty/main/Sources Sources 404 Not Found First I thought, it would be just some kind of server problem, but it didn't stop. The next thing was to research the thread and I even found something. However, the solution suggested didn't work at all. (Things, which might have caused this: I installed the default software center |I'm using Kubuntu, but in this case that fact doesn't matter| and used it. To sum up:
- not able to update the system referring to the launchpad main sources for 11.04 - following error: E: Error http://ppa.launchpad.net natty/main/Sources Sources 404 Not Found It would be great if this was a common issue and I've been simply too stupid to find a proper solution. So you could just post the link.
I am running Jolicloud on my netbook (which I believe is an Ubuntu derivative) and I am tried to enter the getdeb.net sources in so I can install apps from the website through APT but
1) When I entered the sources into sources.list and then the key into Terminal and then went to the site and tried to install an app it didn't work.
2) I deleted the line of code in the sources.list file and when I opened terminal and entered "sudo apt-get update" it showed the list of sources, but on the list were Getdeb.net sources.
My question is how do I delete sources that aren't in /etc/apt/sources.list ?
I am installing a hp officejet pro 8500 all in one printer to knoppix 6.0.1. install hangs saying i need to disable cd sources in etc/apt/source.list. How do i do this?
I recently installed Deluge 1.2.0 from the following PPA:[URL]I using this on two different Linux computers. One is running Linux Mint 8 and the other is running Ubuntu Netbook Remix 9.10. The first time on either computer when I enable WebUI in the Deluge GUI it works fine. However if I ever disable it in plugins section I am subsequently unable to re-enable it (doesn't appear in the side panel again). Rebooting or reinstalling Deluge seems to have no effect.Is this a bug or am I doing something wrong?
Building an nVidia driver requires sources for the currently-running kernel. In my case (Fedora 12), it is, according to 'uname -a', 2.6.31.5-127.fc12.i686
I thought I could get the sources with 'yum install kernel-sources', but there is no such package. Then I tried 'yum install kernel-devel'. That package exists, but the kernel is 2.6.32.9-67.fc12.i686

How to change update sources in Fedora 15? ive just installed fedora 15 beta, and i cant find 'update sources' . i found it in 'system settings' in alpha release, but it disappeared in beta
Is it possible to get a package via yum that has the kernel sources? In the "Add/Remove Software" GUI program, I have enabled the "Fedora source" s/w repository. Even then, the only kernel package I can find is the "The Linux Kernel", linux-2.6.27.15-170... which essentially provides only the kernel binaries and headers but not the source.
I just installed Fedora 13 today, everything is working including the internet. However, when I try to get more programs it says that it cannot find the sources, and a cache reload will fix it. I wasn't sure at first what that ment, being a begginer, but I think it means going into system-refresh package lists. So I do that,ut it still wont give me the program list. I'm really confused, I come from using windows computers and I don't know what to do now, me be a little clearer, when I click on one of the catagores to find software, nothing comes up but the defalt packages that come with the system. I go into the system-Software menu, and there are no boxes cheked. I thought that this maybe to problem, so I try to cheak the top box labled without parentheses "Fedora 13 - 1386". It tells me to authenticate my action and tells me to type the root password, I do this. Then it shows the screen below. I'm running a 32 bit system,
How can I use DKMS to force the virtualbox setup to run using the correct kernel sources? This is the error I'm getting in the vbox logs

As it written here [URL]. Fedora 13 does not include the kernel-source package provided by older versions, since only the kernel-devel package is required now to build external modules. Linux kernel, does not belong to fedora. Fedora is derivative work isn't it? Or you rewrite all kernel in fedora 13, and fedora is not linux any more? According to GPL, derivative works must be licensed as GPL. And so you must provide ALL sources for free. Including kernel sources. So, where can I get kernel sources for fedora 13? Or I'm wrong, and you shouldn't provide them if you wont?
I can not for the work get Virtual Box's Additions to install in my FC12 guest. The error log (/var/log/vboxadd-install.log) shows: Makefile:23: *** Error: unable to find the sources of your current Linux kernel. Specify KERN_DIR=<directory> and run Make again.. Stop.

I used to use Gwibber as social networks aggregator/client, but starting since last update (current version 3.1.0) it crashes miserably on both Fedora 14 and Fedora 15.
Gwibber team looks reluctant to provide any feedback on whether this shall be fixed in foreseeable future. Installing Gwibber from the last stable sources gives the same crash.
I just upgraded from Fedora 10 to 11. After the upgrade, I was unable to update the system and my Software Sources does not display any repositories at all. Yum didn't work also. I tried a couple of things from similar problems posted in the forum, but it didn't help in my case. I get this if I ask yum for the repolist.

I just 'yum installed' php and php-pgsql.I appear to have weak search-foo and cannot figure out how to enable php in apache ( the nifty php-info page does not appear, just the hello and world I put into the file before and after the php-info call ). My intent is to be able to use phpPgAdmin. So I will also need to enable the php-pgsql shared object. I need to add to httpd.conf and any other initialization that I need to do?
I want to share some folders over a network but, when i right click a folder I don't see sharing option in the menu that used to be in Gnome 2 I'm using Fedora 15 with Gnome 3 .
