I searched this on the web to no avail. Could I get a clarification on what exactly Yum ,Yumex, and Packager Installer are? Yum is the terminal and Package installer is (System>Addministration>Add/Remove Sofware correct? Additionally what is Yup and what is Yumex.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to install 11 on my desktop from the live CD. I already have XP and Ubuntu installed, and I know for certain that I have an additional 25 GB left with my documents partition included. I am using a ~= 1 week old hard drive, so that last 25 GB is raw and unformatted.Anyway, here's what's going on: When I attempt to create a new partition in the "free space," I get an error dialog saying "Could not allocate requested partitions: not enough free space on disks."I thought maybe it was a quirk with the ext3/ext4 dilemma, maybe I had to create /boot prior to /, but I tried it both ways.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to install Fedora 12 from a DVD created by an iso I downloaded. When the install gets to the point of actually installing files, I get a message saying that it can't find 'authconfig-gtk-6.0.0.-2.fc12.i686.rpm'. I looked at the DVD for that file and it isn't there. I found 'authconfig-gtk-5.4.13-1.fc12.i686.rpm'. Any ideas how to fix this? The DVD passed the media check at the beginning of the install. I'm not exactly a newbie in Linux as I have some experience with it.

So I started to install the Fedora 12 in my laptop every thing is going fine but
at the time of creating the partitions iam unable to allocate the partitions the left 80gb i tried to select and tried for custom partition but to my surprise it is giving the following message "Could not allocate requested partitions: not enough free space on disks"
Created abt 16.4 gb free space using Disk Management in vista. I read the sticky on installing from the live cd and did accordingly. Whatever Partition i create first (boot or /), it gets done. However, when tryin to create the 2nd partition, i get "Could not allocate requested partitions:Not enough free space on disks." Cant proceed any further.

I have a set of iptables rules generated by Firestarter, and i'm in the process of trying to familiarise myself with iptables itself, but there's one particular rule which is confusing me, perhaps somebody could explain it to me
My INPUT chain reads as follows:
Code:
Chain INPUT (policy DROP)
target prot opt source destination
ACCEPT tcp -- cdns01.plus.net anywhere tcp flags:!FIN,SYN,RST,ACK/SYN
ACCEPT udp -- cdns01.plus.net anywhere
ACCEPT tcp -- cdns02.plus.net anywhere tcp flags:!FIN,SYN,RST,ACK/SYN
[Code]...
Given that the firewall is actually blocking packets, it can't be this simple, so what am I missing?
I have a process that forks, where the childs puts some data of random size and exits while the parent should get the data and does some manipulation.. here I have used a pipe for child to write the data and parent to read the data.. Child simply dumps the data, and the data is of any size even child and parent doesnt know.
I have used select in the parent to see whether there is any data coming on the reading end of the pipe.. if there is a data.. I copy into a buffer.. Im reading the data continusly when the child exits after closing the writing end of pipe. Parent gets blocked on the read part But my question is how parent know the other of pipe is closed when using the select call. In otherwords.. while using select in readfds, how would i know the other end has closed the pipe..

I have two instances of Kubuntu 9.10 (Karmic) I have installed grub2 and all seems OK except for a small bug with update-grub which I have a workaround for. Reported elsewhere
The working system is on /dev/sda7 My copy for testing is on /dev/sda5 gparted flags /dev/sda1 as "boot" and that partition has temp files only. update-grub found my test system on sda5 OK. I would like to upgrade 9.10 on /dev/sda5 to 10.04 (Lucid) as a trial as I had problems with this upgrade on my working system (sda7) and had to recover from a backup image - hence the test system on sda5
I would like advice on what happens to grub2 and MBR which I assume is on sda1 when I do this upgrade. I expect that the upgrade will change grub (in MBR?) to use sda5 instead of sda7 as the main grub filesystem. If not, then all is fine and I carry on as usual.
If not then how to I re-instate my working grub (/boot/grub/*) to sda7 (my working system) as far as the bootloader in MBR is concerned. Is it simply a case of backup and then re-install MBR after the upgrade? Or is there a better way or have I misunderstood something?
I have tried to do a clean install of 10.10 on a system that previously had 9.4 on it. Did not do an upgrade just requested a clean install of UBUNTU. Install proceeds to create user name/password page then just stops. Install line below says ready when you are but I do not get a forward to come up on the screen, it just sits there. I have used different hard drives and a different cdrom drive and 2 different installation disks and it does the same thing.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have installed Windows 7 followed by Fedora 11. Everytime I install Fedora 11 with Win 7, the first to boot, I get BOOTMGR missing. Later I used "df -h" command to see the disk file usage fdisk -l" to see the info regarding Disk Partitions. Went into the /boot/grub/menu.lst and modified the order. I set the partition where I find the bootmgr.exe.mui, there was another file named "memtest.exe.mui in the same file.
I navigated to the above said through Fedora 11. Located inside the Win 7 installed directory /boot/en-US/
When I changed the menu.lst file, I get a new error Error 12: Invalid device requested when I tried to boot Win 7. Does that mean that Fedora 11 GRUB is not getting the bootmgr.exe.mui since its 2 levels inside the boot directory ??
Every time I upgrade my system I run a post install script. This script made some harm to the network start that prevents sshd from starting, but I was unable to detect the problem. In my boot.log I found this:

So there is a "bind to port 22 failed" probably caused by "eth0: link is not ready", but after the sshd init script fails the eth0 is ready...

I am downloading some files via tftp from the server (call it my server) and I need the server to be case insensitive to the file names requested. That is If I request "SoMe.TTL" and the actual file name is "some.ttl" it should send "some.ttl" back! Right now it is case sensitive and is a pain in the but because some windows clients upload files to that directory and the names can have any case. Furthermore, the file request mechanism must allow the user to input the required file name, hence the user can write using any case. Can the tftp-server solve cases by it's own? How about dnsmasq's internal tftp server? Ok, maybe I wasn't explicit above:
I need to make the fedora tftpd-server Case Insensitive!

Since upgrading to Lucid, I am getting the following dialog warning on login: 'Could not apply the stored configuration for monitors X Server does not support size requested' Im using the current proprietary NVIDIA graphics driver with dual heads. My display is fine, but the warning every time I login is annoying. After googling around I found this thread: [URL]. I tried going to Monitor Preferences as suggested. My resolution as displayed in the default tool is set to 3840 x 1200, which I suspect is the issue forcing the dialog, but I cant change the resolution, refresh rate or rotation from the Monitor Preference dialog box. dino99's response (in the referenced post) about xorg.conf not being needed anymore seems relevant. How can I resolve this issue and get rid of this annoying warning? Is there a configuration that I can update with a supported resolution to placate lucid?

I have a full install of Slackware 12.2 and am using KDE 3.5. The other day, an application I was using threw an error about not being able to find a font, specifically code...
Finally, the KDE "Font Installer" program only shows 166 fonts (87 families) in administrator mode.
Question time.
The big question is in KDE, what actually controls which fonts are available to other programs? Are only the fonts displayed in the "Font Installer" app actually available, and if so, how do I make everything available.
I know which lines in xorg.conf set the font path so I can adjust and add others if needed. However, one thing in the font paths confuses me. It concerns the entry "/usr/share/fonts/75dpi/:unscaled" What does the ":unscaled" part mean? I ask because I have no subdirectory of "/usr/share/fonts/75dpi" called ":unscaled"
Final question. Is there a log somewhere that would show exactly which font is being requested but not found? I've looked in /var/log/Xorg.0.log but didn't find anything.
I looked around on the internet to find a solution, but none found.I installed apache2 on Karmic Koala and that one works. On the default page I created a link to "/home/me/Documents/folder/index.html", but when I click the link it gives me the URL not found-error.

Ah, the most dreaded SVN error of them all. It's not even showing up in my Apache logs, either, just on trying to commit.
When I try to add a file to the repository via the following command, I get the error:
Code:
add -N F:eetlemed-1.7workspace
ootClientsrccomeetlemedwebappdataContactInfo.as
A F:/beetlemed-1.7/workspace/rootClient/src/com/beetlemed/webapp/data/ContactInfo.as
commit -m "no more broken commits?" (24 paths specified)
code....
It seems that this error only shows up when I try to add a file to the repo, not when I try to update. I've already run chmod +rwx -R repository, so it should have all of the permissions it could possibly need. The only thing I don't know about is adding it to a group. I don't think my server has an apache group, so I wouldn't know where to start and what to do with that.
This problem happens from time to time, but I can't seem to shake it this time. I'm running SVN over HTTPS on Apache 2.x.
