if the dejavu updates are selected then updates fail. I uncheck the dejavu updates and everything else updates fine. Trying to update dejavu by themselves results in "no transaction to process" error. I was kind of hoping that this would be noticed upstream and dealt with, but after several update cycles the problem persists. I can't remove the dejavu fonts because half the software on the machine would be removed as well.

View 8 Replies View RelatedI am a linux newbie and want to try to run Fedora 13 from a 4Gb USB flash drive for a while until I decide to do a permanent install.My problem is that although I selected to create persistent storage using the liveusb creator, nothing is being saved after rebooting.For reference, I downloaded the 64bit version using bittorrent, and I created the live usb on windows 7.Is there some setting I must set to enable persistent storage?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI am running a live (4gb) USB of Fedora_14 with 768mb persistent storage. I am trying to add firmware for broadcom wireless link, as it is not natively supported. When I download tar, extract and copy missing firmware then reboot... all changes are reverted back. How do I make these changes persistent upon reboot.
View 8 Replies View RelatedI just did a fresh install of Fedora 11 and the only video resolutions available were 640x480 and 800x600.
The native resolution of the monitor is 1280x1024 and that's what I'd like to use.
I was able to get the display to the proper resolution with the following commands:
Code:
However, rebooting sets it back to 800x600. I have seen the edits to xorg.conf but that file wasn't created.
Is there a way to make the 1280x1028 resolution persistent without creating a xorg.conf file?
i has setup a persistent DNS cache to improve my web-browsing. it works wonders and with my ICC built firefox my web-browsing is laser-fast, pretty much like using internet explorer in windows! however, everytime i reboot, my modifications to /etc/resolv.conf have been replaced... 1st. the file must contain:
# Generated by NetworkManager (obviously modified by this)
nameserver 127.0.0.1 <----this is lost on reboot, and is needed to make it all work
nameserver 209.226.175.223
nameserver 198.235.216.134
i have tried to add this to - System/administration/network, but it doesn't seem to fix the problem. 2nd. my next problem is that when fedora 12 starts up,i need it to start "dnsmasq".i have tried to add it as a startup application, but it doesn't start automatically.so i end up having to start it manually everytime:
sudo /etc/init.d/dnsmasq start
it is annoying, but so far i just deal with it, because my browsing is that much faster! i am planning to post a tutorial for those interested in faster web-browsing in linux, but until i can make the changes perminent there isn't much point.
PS: i have tried to write a shell script to do this and every which way i try it fails
I switched from Ubuntu to Fedora and I'm having a little bit of trouble understanding why I cannot update my system. Fedora seems to be a little bit more complicated than Ubuntu to update and to do other things... I'm still willing to try it because it has a good reputation and good reviews so I will go ahead and give it a shot but before I do that I need to update it. I have an HP pavilion notebook dv2000. Just installed Fedora 15 and my system is telling me that I have over 700 updates! when I click on install updates I get an error:
Transaction error An unspecified transaction error has occurred. More information is available on the detailed report. Then on the details this is what I get:

View 4 Replies View RelatedI just set-up my fedora-14 live usb on an 8gb usb hard drive but I see the space left on '/' is less than 800mb (I created a 3.5gb persistent file) like so:

--unencrypted-home --home-size-mb 3500
--overlay-size-mb 3500 Fedora-14-x84_64-Live-Desktop.iso /dev/sdc1
but I still don't have much space to install programs.
Is there a way to trick yum into installing programs under /home/liveuser/programs instead ?:

While doing 'yum update' an error message was issued during clean up phase:

Does this represent some kind of problem or can I just ignore it?

View 1 Replies View RelatedI installed Fedora 12. There are a few things that aren't workng right: mouse pointer going invisible, sound doesn't sound right, usb wireless adapter doesn't work if plugged in when the computer boots. The first thing I tried was running Software Update. I was hoping to sort out some of the bugs but Software Update isn't working. It starts and loads a list of updates and then when I click Install I get this error message:

It looks like the software is updating like it should, now. Though, I don't know why the GUI based Software Update was having problems.
A few days ago there was a huge TexLive update. Since I've installed the updates I get following error, when running pdfLatex:

So I guess it can't find pdflatex.fmt, but I don't know what to do against it.

As root, I can mount the /home directory from my desktop to my laptop which uses wireless. However, when I logout the mount disappears. That is, I mount the directory, check it is mounted, then I logout, log back in as root, the mount is now not there. How do I make the mount persistent, always there?
I want the mount to persist so that the two ordinary users on my small household network can access the same files whichever computer they use.
It appears that this may be because the wireless link disappears when I log out. Both machines are using Fedora 10. A persistent mount used to work using Febora 8, but maybe some settings I am not aware of have changed.
Anyone else get this error on update, "kdelibs4(x86-64) >= 4.3.00 is needed by package ktorrent-3.2.3-.fc10.x86_64 (updates)"? Just wondering, I'm guessing I need to wait for KDE on this one.

Last night software updater notification showed 29 updates. I was building a liveCD image so decided create the image first then install the updates. After the updates were finished, I did a reboot because some packages required it, I logged on successfully, then I shutdown for the night. This morning when I executed the same command used to create the liveCD image, I get the following error.

If I try to do a software update, I get an error message. It is:

When I try to do the first update tells me "dependency resolution failed" and that I miss "librpm.so.0. I have Fedora 12.
