Fedora :: Fc12 - Set Gdm For Automatic Logon ?

Jul 27, 2010

I am setting up an FC12 workstation for a customer. If he likes it, he is thinking of converting over the rest of his workstations.

Problem: what happened to gdmsetup?

I need to:
1) change the greater
2) set the users in the greater
3) set the automatic logon
4) set the timed logon.

Is there a substitute or testing utility for gdmsetup?

CentOS 5 :: Can't Get Automatic Logon To Work In KDE?

May 11, 2010

I've just built a fresh Centos 5.4 install on a 533 MHz P3. This machine is going to be used as a thick client on a LAN. I'm trying to implement automatic logons to the KDE desktop but the automatic logon implementation isn't working as expected. I'm hoping that someone can tell me what I've done wrong. Here's what I've done so far:

1. Created a non-root user account named "bob". "bob" has generic low-level privileges on the machine.

2. I've tried to enable automatic logons using the following GUI menu selections:

Control Center > System Administration > Login Manager > Administrator Mode > Convenience Tab

Ubuntu Networking :: Automatic Logon To Internet Using Scripts?

Sep 5, 2010

I'm working in France right now. And my internet access is through a router on a local network (LAN) of the hotel in which I stay. In order to have internet access I must type in my room number, my name, check the agreement and then click Enter.The problem is that the router cuts off internet every two hours.What I need is some script that does the followings:

- detect if there is no more internet connection (the LAN connection stays on)

- if there isn't to run the script that does all those things above.

What I've managed to do is the script that puts room number, name, check the agreement and click Enter using DejaClick, making it a bookmark and then open the firefox and run the script.The command that I've used in Terminal and which I think I can use in my script was:

[URL]

It works well. It's connecting to the net.What remains is the detection of the cut off of the internet connection.
Tried with Wicd, going to the properties of the wireless connection and then on Script. here I'm stucked.Don't know what to do anymore.It has the post-disconnection script option, but my LAN connection is not disconnecting, only the Internet access through this LAN is disconnecting.

Security :: Display Of Number Of Failed Logon Attempt At Logon?

Jan 26, 2010

Our system is based on RH4 and is using pam_tally and faillog to record failed attempts and to lock users out after 5 attempts. We have a requirement to provide a normal (non-root) user logging onto our system, with information regarding the number of failed logon attempts made on their account before the current successful logon (similar to the functionality provided by HP Protect Tools on Windows). My first idea was to add 'faillog -u $USER' to the bashrc, however by the time the bashrc is run - the user has been successfully authenticated and the faillog has been reset back to zero.

Fedora :: Cannot Logon To Gnome 3

May 26, 2011

I've installed F15 but due to the old age of my tablet (HP TC1100), I cannot logon to Gnome 3. It say something like "Opps, sorry something went wrong..." and then puts me back to the logon prompt. Is there any way I can logon to Gnome using the old layout? I installed KDE during install but couldn't find anything that would allow me to change how I logon to Gnome.

Fedora Installation :: Normal GDM Logon After F10 Upgrade ?

May 13, 2009

How do I get the normal GDM logon dialog that was in F8 - the one with the User field displayed directly, and the drop down menus at the top?

F10 was successful. I changed the pam configuration to allow root logon at the GUI screen.

But this screen is different. All I get is 3 choices in a list: FTP Logon to Web Site, Ghost for Linux, and "Other". I only get the User field if I choose Other, and at that point I also get Sus[pend, Restart, and Shutdown buttons.

Fedora :: 14 - Logon Screen User Order ?

Nov 4, 2010

In fedora 14, the user order on GNOME login screen is completely different from that in fedora 13. Is there any way to order the users by date of creation ASC, not by name ASC?

Also, it is completely random. This time when I started my computer, my account was listed first. When I started this thread, it was listed last. What's happening?

Fedora Installation :: Live CD Stops At Logon Screen?

Wanting to try F11 out and having an issue straight off the bat (perhaps I should see this as a sign of things to come and stop here!).I grabbed the live cd last night and burnt to cd OK (I'm not a noob at stuff like that); the cd boots as expected and I'm presented with the initial logon screen; I click to log in as Live System User, the "Other..." option vanishes but then nothing happens from there.I've left it for 20 minutes so far

Fedora :: Build A Rpm For FC12?

Jan 2, 2010

I saw that AMZ recently updated the rpm for Fedora to be compatible with FC 11, however the install is still broken on FC12 (obviously since it's built for 11).

My main question is has anyone found a decent workaround, that won't completely hose your system? Should I just wait until they build an rpm for FC12?

Fedora :: Non-KVM Kernel For FC12?

Mar 10, 2010

Not wanting to speculate why, in the repositories, Fedora doesn't *also* provide a on-KVM enabled kernel counterpart to the default KVM enabled kernel that *is* supplied, I must say I'm frustrated that they haven't done this simple thing.

Considering that everyone who upgrades to KVM enabled FC12 from a previous non-KVM release of Fedora (like FC10) ... considering that these people will be guaranteed to no
longer be able to run VirtualBox or VMWare Workstation after upgrading, is a disappointing oversight by / or intent of Fedora (one that manifests in *lost productivity*).

And try though you may to install the kernel source RPM and compile it after running "make xconfig" to disable KVM support, you usually can't! Fedora kernel compile attempts often die very early in the "make" process, indicating something like ...

"Kernel compile error: No rule to make target `missing-syscalls'

or some other silliness. And when you successfully compile a "kernel.org" kernel, and try to boot it, you get all kinds of missing library errors (etc).

Given that it would be simple to provide both a KVM enabled kernel (as they do), and also a non-KVM enabled kernel (which they don't) so the rest of us can seamlessly continue to run VirtualBox and/or VMWare Workstation after an upgrade - and avoid getting entangled with deciding whether use KVM or XEN for guest O/S's... it's a frustrating misstep to not have done this basic thing (i.e. include a non-KVM kernel). It was a rude awakening when we tried to launch VirtualBox only to have it fail after the upgrade.

Anyway, has anyone successfully compiled their own kernel for FC12 and not get errors after boot? If so, which sources did you use; and what kernel version? In the meantime I'll try out other kernels and compile options.

Fedora :: X-windows Fails Under FC12 64 Bit

Nov 19, 2009

I recently upgraded my CPU (just before the release of FC12), to a 64-bit compatible Intel Core 2 E7600. Upon the release of FC12 I moved to the 64 bit version (via a clean install).

I noticed that NVIDIA does not work (as many topics on this forum confirm). So I reinstalled and used the FC12 default drivers (I think they are called Nouveau-drivers). This seemed to work, so I ran "yum update", and now all X-windows fail.

KDE complaints: "kstartup4 does not exist or fails" and GNOME also complains (sorry forgot the exact error message)

I'd be happy to send logs, but if these are required, which log you want and where I can find it.

how to get or KDE or GNOME running ? (preferably KDE)

System:
Intel Core 2 Duo E7600 (3.1 GHz)
3 GB Memory (800MHz)
Nvidia Geforce 9600 GT
Mobo: Foxconn P35A01

Fedora :: Unable To Use Tar.gz On FC12 Amd64

Dec 28, 2009

It was a long time since my last post on this forum. The reason for this was that since FC7 I've moved to Debian Etch and then to Ubuntu, but now I'm back trying FC12 amd64 on my machine and seen how it changed.Almost everything is going well until now. After almost two years I see that a great development was made to build and gui to yum, but synaptic is still superior, imho.

Well, as I said, everything is going well with one exception: the *.tar.gz files.
Doesn't matter if I use the gui or the cli. If I try to compress or decompress any file to tar.gz it fails with the error message bellow. All other file types work perfectly.

Code:

/bin/gtar: Child returned status 1
/bin/gtar: Exiting with failure status due to previous errors

As I said, I'm running FC12 amd64. Gnome environment.
