Upon yum -y update I end up with this lines, exiting the process:

As a newbie, I have no idea of what to do, how to investigate, or what to remove to make it work.

I installed F14 on a friend's computer a couple of weeks ago. Today she called me saying that her ISP called her telling her they'd have to cancel her internet if she didn't fix whatever virus was sending port scans to edu domains that they'd gotten complaints from. I thought "well, there's a first"... I've got ssh to her computer, so i shelled in and ran a couple of commands, but i really know very little about how to investigate this kind of stuff.
She's directly connected to her cable modem via cat-5; but she does have a wireless card installed --she just doesn't use it, nor a router, afaik, nor as far as i'd seen when i setup her printer. I googled a bit, and ran a couple of commands, and 1 of them was interesting because it APPEARS that her wireless card is ON and the eth0 is OFF? Perhaps someone will know how to read this output better than i, and the output of the other command that i ran. Also, does anyone know any other ways to properly investigate this one? FWIW, she does use transmission to download torrents.
Anyway, here's the commands i ran:
Code:
[root@localhost ~]# ip link show
1: lo: <LOOPBACK,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 16436 qdisc noqueue state UNKNOWN link/loopback 00:00:00:00:00:00 brd 00:00:00:00:00:00.
2: eth0: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc pfifo_fast state UNKNOWN qlen 1000 link/ether 00:21:97:9b:70:29 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
3: wlan0: <NO-CARRIER,BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP> mtu 1500 qdisc mq state DOWN qlen 1000 link/ether 00:1e:e5:9c:b6:8a brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff [root@localhost ~]#

One reason I left Windows behind, particularly with a 3GB a month download limit, was that Linux generally only downloads files when you expect it to. Having the cap on downloads I run Netmeter in Wine. Now if like today I see a large unexpected download (pic) which is even in red to increase the paranoia, how can I find out what it is preferably while it is happening? It does not seem to be an email with attachment (I run Thunderbird); Nothing in Downloads, and as far as I knew application updates only happen after confirming permission in update manager?

I installed Fedora 12. I noticed that every possible language support is included in Firefox. What is the reason for this? Will Fedora and Firefox still work if I remove these languages?

how I can make desktop effects work on F11. it used to work on F10. Now I get the garbled screen every time I enable it on gnome.Google search said to disable the metacity composite manager using gconf-editor but I'm not sure I know how to do it. When I type in gconf-editor it just opens a blank configuration screen . It would be better if someone one can help me how to do it probably on the command line, also what is the equivalent of xorg.conf on F11.

I have a .rar file called Japanese, and every time I enter the command "unrar e Japanese.rar", I get the response "Cannot open Japanese.rar No such file or directory No files to extract".
I've done everything on this site, but I can't get it to extract. What do I have to do to make this work? Do I need to set the directory or something? I've seen other people mention that as a solution for other problems, but have no idea how to do it.

I've just installed LAMPP on F11 I wanted to share the process to make Xampp work on linux (fedora) 64 bit.
1- Download Lampp : [URL]../en/xampp-linux.html#374
2- log as root, and unzip the archive file in "/opt" : it is installed !
3- to launch lampp : log as root (or sudo), and use "/opt/lampp/lampp start"
You should have error messages ! So do the following : - modify "/opt/lampp/lampp" : comment this part of the script [URL]..it-rhel.html):
# XAMPP is currently 32 bit only
#case `uname -m` in
# *_64)
# if /opt/lampp/bin/php -v > /dev/null 2>&1
# then
# :
# else

How do I make ntlmv2 and 128 bit encryption work with Samba. i.e. I have a Win 2008/Win7/Vista box with standard settings i.e. forced using ntlmv2 and 128 bit encryption that I want to connect to a Linux server running Samba (RHEL6 in this case). Now if you google you it says Samba should support ntlmv2 with settings like this:
lanman auth = no
ntlm auth = no
client lanman auth = no
client ntlmv2 auth = yes
However even with 128 bit encryption turned off on the Win box it still doesn't work. We use "security = server". Is it maybe a requirement that we need to use security domain instead for ntlmv2 to work? Reading further in man smb.conf.5 "client ntlmv2 auth = yes" is "This parameter determines whether or not smbclient will attempt to authenticate itself to servers using the NTLMv2 encrypted password response." so clearly it's not affecting our samba server.
Reading even further in man smb.conf.5 it says "If this option (lanman auth), and ntlm auth are both disabled, then only NTLMv2 logins will be permited". Why is it then that you need to force NTLM auth in Win2008?
NTLMv2 is only compatible with "security=domain". This means that even if you set "lanman auth=no", and "ntlm auth=no" it will still only auth with NTLM... Here is the Q from Andrew Bartlett * "Use 'security=domain'. NTLM2 session security is not compatible with 'security=server'."
In order to use "security=domain" you need to use the net command to join the windows domain and for that you will need the AD administrator account password which you will most likely not have. However the question still reminds if you would to join the domain would the NTLMv2 work over 128 bit encystations or would you need to disable that one still?

My wireless adapter stopped working randomly the other day. I think the last time it was working was right before I put the computer into hibernate for the first time. it stopped working even after restarting.modinfo p54usb shows (I'm leaving out information that seems irrelevant because I can't copy and paste without the internet, so I'm typing what I see from another computer)
firmware: isl3887usb
firmware: isl3886usb
dmesg | grep firmware doesn't seem to show any requests for firmware related to it. lsusb shows something like
bus 002 device 001: ID... linux foundation 1.1 root hub
bus 001 device 003: id... linksys wusb54g wireless adapter
[code]....
When I start up, in boot messages I get something like this
WARNING deprecated config file /etc/modprobe.conf, all config files belong into /etc/modprobe.d/.
WARNING all config files need .conf: /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist, it will be ignored in a future release

I am having trouble loading my sound drivers after removing pulseaudio. (Yes, I did try and reinstall pulse, did it again with ALSA, no luck).
It appears that my sound drivers are not loaded, because cat /proc/asound/cards returns 'no soundcards' and aplay -l returns the same... the ouput was quite different before, I am sure I DO have soundcards and they did work before in Fedora 14.
Any Ideas how can I make the sound drivers load again ?

I am trying to make a d-link dwl-650+ pcmcia card work through ndiswrapper method following the direction at:[URl]... The first step there is to install the "kmod-ndiswrapper" via yum.
But, how would I just download this package to a usb drive so that I can transfer it to the laptop that needs wireless networking. Is there an option in yum where I can just download the package, not intstall, so that I can save it somewhere?

I cannot right click with my mouse on the gnome applications menu to get the properties/edit menu option. This is on F12 on 64bit.
Instead I get: "help, remove from panel, lock panel". I dont have this problem with anything else on the top bar.

The only user that can make the sound card work on a F10 x86_64 system is root. For non root users, I am not seeing any error messages when a app tries to use/access the sound card, just nothing plays. As I said, for root everything works as expected. I am sure this is a permission/setup issue, but I have no idea where to start.

I can't get flash controls to work. If the video auto-plays, it starts just fine, if not, I'm out of luck. I've tried reinstalling flash through the software center. Even if it autoplays, I can't control volume or pause or anything. I'm at the mercy of whatever is already there.

I'm trying to switch from debian to fedora (13) and I'm stuck at getting yum to remove leave dependencies.
So far I've installed "yum-plugin-remove-with-leaves" and I'm able to remove leave dependencies if I invoke yum with the "--remove-leaves" argument from command line.
But this doesn't work with graphical front ends and I want to remove unused leave dependencies every time if I remove a package not just if I remember to invoke yum with the "--remove-leaves" argument.
Later on I discovered an option in "/etc/yum/pluginconf.d/remove-with-leaves.conf" named "remove_always = 1" and uncommented it. But yum doesn't seem to care. I still need to add the "--remove-leaves" argument otherwise yum isn't going to remove the leave dependencies.
How to configure yum to handle dependencies the way I used to know from apt under debian? Install a package with a graphical front end and dependencies get pulled in as needed. Uninstall a package later on and dependencies installed in the first place are removed as well if not needed by anything installed in between.

I've installed F15 Gnome 3 and after a while in using this interface, I decided I rather go back to the LXDE desktop. so I've removed GNOME and installed LXDE.I'm not sure if it worked in GNOME 3 - but now in the LXDE I'm unable to install software using Add/Remove Software applet or check for software updates.When I attempt to do so - I get an error message telling me that "Authorization failed" - it doesn't even prompt me for the root password and I've resorted to having to do the install of new software and updates through the command line using "yum install ..... " and "yum upgrade".
