I've install F10 to use it as server and router and found a strange problem on my XP machine which is behind the F10. I've tried to update my Lineage2 client from official server but the update crash, tried to open the web page it didn't open. Also tried to open microsoft web it didn't open. When i try to open the same pages on PC with F10 they open with no problem.

For the past few days, the automatic GUI update has been crashing, complaining of a "Transaction error."
Here is the output that pops up in a separate window:

I tried the following:

And got the following (similar) output:
Code:
I very rarely use xfce and I don't quite know what exo is, but I'd like to fix this problem if it's not too involved.

Yesterday i have installed F14 and then went to the comand line to update the system via yum update. It was about 860MB of updates in 430 packages. The strange thing is that only one package was a delta rpm and all other were normal rpm. Is Fedora giving up on presto or it needs some special configuration?

I've made a terrible mistake that I changed files in /etc/yum.repo.d and /etc/yum.conf.Now I can't get update by yum update, saying that ERROR: Cannot retrieve repository metadata (repomd.xml) for repository: base. Please verify its path and try again. Now I'd like to reset everything to default.What can I do now?

difference between yum update and gpk-update-viewer. I thought these two were supposed to do the same thing, apply the updates from the repositories. However, if I run "Software Update" and then yum update, yum update returns many more updates. This is confusing. Which should I use? What is the recommended way to update Fedora systems?

It's two days now I'm in deep troubles after my last "yum update". The system boots as usual, the graphical login pops up the normal way but no input is handled by either the internal keyboard (the system is a laptop), the mouse pad, the external USB mouse and keyboard.
The hardware itself seems to be working as I can pop up the BIOS menus and even edit the GRUB booting line. But, after GRUB there's no possible input. I've tried to boot the system with the Fedora 11 DVD, rescue menu and then chroot. This in order to run a "yum update" in the hope that the problem was in some broken update. No chance: there's no update.
My questions are:
1. Is there a way to boot Fedora withou any graphical interface from GRUB (or anything else to skip the KDE)?
2. Is there a way to have the (cabled) network activated at boot *before* the graphical login?
3. What the he** is happening to my otherwise pefectly working laptop?

Fedora (2.6.34.6-47.fc13.x86_64) I installed that update, during the installation process it said that it had to remove three packages, one of them was kmod nvidia for the old kernel (Fedora (2.6.33.8-149.fc13.x86_64))After the update finished installing the new kernel, I restarted the system and Nvidia did not load. (I assume because Update manager removed the old nvidia? But I also assumed that a new version would be installed automatically?)I received the following Boot messages:
Code:
Entering non-interactive startup
Starting monitoring for VG vg_user1: 3 logical volume(s) in volume group "vg_user1" monitored
[code]....
I'm confused, if Update Manager removed kmod nvidia, then why does yum say it is installed? And why doesn't the new kernel update work with that version? Or should I install a driver version for that particular kernel? I've read while searching that I need to install a kmod-nvidia for that particual kernel version and that I should login to my previous kernel until that happens, is that the problem I'm having?
Why don't rpmfusion and fedoraproject release the kmod-nvidia and kernel updates at the same time to avoid problems such as this? Does anyone know how long does it usually take for rpmfusion to release the new kmod-nvidia driver for the latest kernel?

I have Fedora 10 installed. I've just made an update of my system. Things that were updated were a new kernel version with devel and also something with NVIDIA (which is my video card).
After restart of my system, compiz fusion no longer works.
I have a NVIDIA-Linux-x86-177.82-pkg1.run -file to manually install the NVIDIA-driver so the advanced features of Compiz can be utilized.
After install, the bootup screen tells me that loading the NVIDIA driver has failed. I also receive a WARNING-message.

Every time Fedora 11 tries and updates (which is every time I turn it on because it never finishes) it gets a bug. The same updates try and reinstall but every single time I get a bug error.

Since a few days I can't update my Fedora 13 box. When I run 'yum update' I get following error:
Code:
Transaction Check Error:
package sqlite-3.6.23.1-1.fc14.x86_64 (which is newer than sqlite-3.6.22-1.fc13.i686) is already installed
Error Summary
-------------
I tried 'yum clean all' and 'yum --skip-broken' with no success. The sqlite package seems to be fc14 although I am running FC13, I don't know how it got installed.

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?

What is the easiest way to update my fedora 6 box to 10? Yum update won't even work anymore, it gives me errors and I read the upgrade tutorial and it didn't seem to help me. Is there a way to simply download 10 and install it and then reboot?

I updated F11 this morning and when I rebooted X no longer sees my USB mouse. The system is a Dell Optiplex GX620 and it is a stanmdard scroll wheel Dell USB mouse. I do not have any of the bluez packages installed - I saw in another thread that removing/reverting them helped.

Why does it seem now I have to reboot after EVERY update ? I have been a Fedora user for YEARS !! I am on Fedora 11. It seems now that I get updates sometimes 3 to 6 times per week and it always has an icon to reboot !! I can't run a stable web server/DNS/email/NAS server if I have to reboot every day !! Why is every update requiring a reboot now ?

Today, Tues. Sep. 8 '09, I downloaded and installed the suggested updates but when I rebooted my sound was almost completely muffled.
Anyone else encounter this problem? Suggested fix? I'm using Fedora 11 and have kept up with all the updates.

This morning I had the notification that there were 21 updates available, and I selected to install them. The system then notified me that a restart was required and I clicked the restart button. After restarting, the system boots to the GUI screen and I select my name and enter the password. It then plays the login sound, the cursor "swirls" and it cycles back to the login screen. Switching over to another terminal screen I can login from the command line.

I updated my fedora 11 kernel version 2.6.30.5-43.fc11.i586 and when I restart, it doesn't boot. Here's how I updated. What I wanted to do was to install manpages-dev. So I go to system-> Administration-> Software sources and tick the last (fedora rawhide) and run yum update. I tried to boot from old kernel 2.6.29.6-217-2.8.fc11.i586 but still the same. I'm afraid I won't be able to boot fedora.

I have just reinstalled my fedora, because I messed up with the unsuccessful installation f the Beta Nvidia driver. The problem I am having is that when I try to update KDE to 4.3 (currently is 4.1) I get this
Code:
I understand I need KDE 4.2 at least, but can I exclude somehow this update, because I dont need marble anyway. Or at least how do I update first to 4,2 and then to 4.3.1.
