Fedora :: System-config-display Just Ruined Display?
Jun 29, 2010I did not have any /etc/X11/xorg.conf, so I read on these forums that system-config-display would create one for me. I ran system-config-display and it created an xorg.conf. But now my display is all messed up!! So, I deleted the xorg.conf and nothing changed. Why on earth would the display still be messed up if I deleted the file that was causing it?? Does system-config-display change somethign else?

Apr 16, 2011I have a fresh install of OpenSUSE 11.4 64bit and I have installed the AMD Display drivers for my Radeon HD 5970. Everything seems to be working quite well. I have a multiple monitor setup (1280x1024 monitor and a 1920x1080 monitor).
I have my primary display set to 1920x1080, however when I try to enable the second display, I get a CRTC error that the display is over the maximum (1920x1920). If I enable both monitors at lower resolutions, there is no problem.
I have done a fair bit of reading and have been unable to determine where this maximum is set, or how to change it. I'd like to be able to run both monitors at their native resolutions.

Jun 28, 2011I have the following scenario that doesn't seem to work normally. I have a windows 7 pc from which I am using putty to connect to my other linux servers (all running redhat 5 and 6). So here is the scenario that works and one that does not work. And I'm trying to figure out the one that does not work. Scenario that works:
From windows 7 (putty) I ssh into Linux_Server_1.
echo $DISPLAY
localhost:10.0
I run xclock and I see it pop up on my windows 7 pc. I am using xming on windows 7 to help me populate the display from linux to windows. One that does not work:
From windows 7 (putty) I ssh into Linux_Server_1. Then from Linux_Server_1 I ssh into Linux_Server_2.
echo $DISPLAY
<no output>
I try to setup $DISPLAY with localhost:10.0 or 0.0 or even my windows 7 pc ip address:0.0 ....etc Then when I try to run xclock I doesn't work.
I get these error messages: Error: Can't open display: <ip of display>
Also as a side note all our Linux servers are sitting on one subnet. My pc is sitting on another subnet. I use vpn to connect to the subnet where the servers sit from my pc.
Fedora :: Access Disks And NTFS Partitions On The Host OS - Windows 7

Programming :: HTML5 "details" Tag Display - Inline - Display - Hidden CSS Ignored - Firefox - Seamonkey
Jan 11, 2011I'm testing HTML5 for the first time, using Firefox (beta) 4.0b8 and SeaMonkey (beta) 2.1b1, and its ignoring some CSS. Specifically, I have problems with the <details> tag. (It is nested in a paragraph...I am using it to provide an in-paragraph definition in hopes it can be toggled.)
Firefox only partly supports <details>. It's not supposed to show anything except the content of <summary>, unless you click on <summary>'s content. Instead, it puts a line break before the content of <details>, splitting the paragraph in two peices (which looks silly), without the "closed/open" functionality.
So I tried using "display:inline" in my CSS, but that gets ignored. Just for fun, I also tried "display:hidden" (also ignored) and "display:none" (obeyed).
SeaMonkey doesn't doesn't do anything special with the content of <display>...but it also ignores the same CSS as Firefox.
The only thing I can do to support semantic design is apply "font-style:italic" to all <details> elements.
Granted, you might ask, "why bother using <details> at all. then?" Well, I would like to have <details> for the browsers that support it, with the "font-style:italic" to degrade the page nicely for those that don't (such as for SeaMonkey).
Does anyone know why "display:inline" and "display:hidden" get ignored?
Ubuntu Networking :: Set Display And Xhost: Unable To Open Display "XXX.XXX.X.XXX:0.0"
Jul 20, 2011I have configured an instance in AWS EC2. I am trying to set the display back so I can run x apps. I login using ssh -xy -i...
export DISPLAY=XXX.XXX.X.XXX:0.0

Fedora Security :: Selinux With Homedirs Spread Across Multiple Physical Disks/partitions?
Jun 10, 2010By fiat I must distribute my homedirs across multiple physical disks/partitions. Unfortunately this is not open to discussion so obvious solutions like a lvm home partition are not available to me. The issue: Users created with homedirs on the main home partition (the one created as home during the f13 install) behave as expected, but if I create them on a different partition (home9 for the sake of this example) the users are not able to login (dropped back to login screen), nor run x-apps if su -'d to in a konsole.
If I 'su - <user-on-home9>' in a konsole, I get delivered to the /home9/<user-on-home9> as expected, but x-apps fail with the error: 'cannot open display: :0'. This can be temporarily fixed with the command 'xhost +SI:localhost:<user-on-home9>', but I would rather fix it permanently at the source.
This appears to be an selinux problem from the following.The contexts of the the two rootdirs are the same
% ls -Zd /home /home9
drwxr-xr-x. root root system_u:object_r:home_root_t:s0 /home
drwxr-xr-x. root root system_u:object_r:home_root_t:s0 /home9
but when I create the users (using useradd or the gui) their respective contexts differ:
% ls -Zd /home/user5 /home9/user6
[Code]...
So, my questions for you selinux experts are 1) is it possible to have homedirs spread across multiple partitions with selinux, and if so, how, 2) Why, even when I manually set the dir/file contexts to match a properly functioning user5 from /home, do users from /home9 still not work (as far as login and x-apps).
Fedora Installation :: Error: Could Not Allocate Requested Partitions - Not Enough Free Space On Disks

Fedora :: Sudoers Can Not Display
Mar 14, 2010I am going to school for IT Security and will be taking my first Linux class this semester. I have dabbled a little bit in Linux before this but never really had the time to get to involved so I put it off untill now. Now I am forced . Anywho...I just installed Fedora11 (dual booting with Vista home basic) and the first thing that I am trying to tackle is install VMware. I have access to a bunch of Window OS's because of school and would like to create a 'virtual' version of windows for things like iTunes. This way, i have to force myself to use Linux for everything and I can install it on the whole PC. Until then, I am going to dual boot. When I was trying to install VMware, I tried to do it from the Terminal using sudo sh then the file name which is a .bundle file, I typed in the password and it said that my account was not in the 'sudowers' profile or something like that. I read on-line that you can modify who can sudo and who can't in the ect/sudoers file but if has an 'X' at the top right and I can't open it. It says 'Could not display "/etc/Sudoers". I tried to use visudo in the terminal and it says that permission is denied.

Fedora :: Sudo Loses X Display?
Jan 25, 2009I'm running Fedora 9, and I've just started getting a problem (it was working the other day), where if I type
sudo su -
then any program which uses X gives an error about not being able to open the display.
For instance:
# gnome-terminal
No protocol specified
cannot open display: Run 'gnome-terminal --help' to see a full list of available command line options.
I've checked the value of $DISPLAY, and it's :0.0, (which is what it should be, and what my non-root user has as $DISPLAY).
I've also noticed, I can "ssh -Y" from my non-user account into root@localhost, and the display works!
Fedora :: KDE Cannot Display Some Characters (Chinese)
Jul 21, 2009I update system today. Just before , everything is normal. Once it finished , I found that my KDE can't display some characters. I am a Chinese user. The English words are normal,.

And they are displayed messed together. It is not pretty. AND it is not only in browser, anywhere displayed Chinese characters looks the same as browser. How to change them back to default font as one font not two types of font messed together?

Dec 6, 2009I'm running PyMOL version 1.2r2 on Fedora 12 with python2.6.
Only for a second or two will molecular models display correctly in the PyMOL viewer, and then the image becomes distorted. As I rotate the model, it displays correctly, but then almost immediately after I stop moving the model, it becomes distorted again.
The attached images show the display before and after the distortion.
This is some of the information that the PyMol program prints as it loads.

View 1 Replies View RelatedFedora :: Laptop Display Is Put On The Left And All Other
Jan 8, 2010I want to change the default behavior of my display hotkey combo (Fn+F7). I can do this in KDE, but in Gnome, the gnome-settings-daemon cycles through the options. Problem is, the option I want is not there. I want the laptop display on the right and the external display on the left. I know how to use xrandr to change this or to use System > Preferences > Display, but I want to use my hotkey combo. I see two ways to do this. Find the configuration file that selects the options that are cycled and manually edit it, or disable this hotkey combo for the gnome-settings-daemon and use my own script in /etc/acpi/actions, etc/acpi/events for the hotkey combo. Currently the gnome-settings-daemon intercepts the hotkey combo, so I can't use my own script. Anyone know anything about this, or do I need to file a bug report?

So here we go: Is it possible to install Fedora on a PC which has no keyboard nor mouse nor display attached to it? And if so plx give a link or a short description how to do it. I read about kickstart, but this was all a little wacky.
Note: The PC will have network access.
