Fedora :: Possible Bug In Updated GnomeManager?
Dec 11, 2009I did my updates for F11 as I do often and afterwards booted in verbose mode to see anything different.The update was done 3 days ago and here's the log file..Starting NetworkManager daemon: ** (NetworkManager:1899): WARNING **: State file /var/lib/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.state parsing failed: (2) Error creating state directory /var/lib/NetworkManager: 13.[60G[[0;32m OK [0;39m]As noted, it says OK and the network still connects as usual but this warning msg didn't happen until the update.Is this a bug with the new Gnome Network mgr or could it be related to the new F12 release?I plan to upgrade or clean install F12 soon. Been using F11 since Aug.5 and I really like it by far the most stable Gnome of any distro I've tried. Was a KDE fan until now lol. I never liked the idea of KDE4.x but it is maturing. But-- most dists don't even offer tried-true KDE 3.5.10 anymore.ay need to fwd this issue with GnomeNetworkManager to the bug forums for Fedora/RHEL.UPDATE: I installed the updated SElinux Policy (testing) via rpmfind.net.selinux-policy 3.6.12.92.fc11.noarch.rpm and selinux-policy-targeted 3.6.12.92.fc11.noarch.rpm and the issue with the NetworkManager error went away!!I assume this package will be released as an update soon

Jun 13, 2011I run F15 on my desktop PC and /var/log/dmesg is not being updated. I used preupgrade to upgrade from F14 to F15 on June 3. I boot F15 at least once per day. /var/log/dmesg has not been updated since June 3. /var/log/dmesg was being updated correctly when I ran F14. On f15, if I issue "dmesg" from the command line, I get the expected result. Is this a bug?

Fedora Installation :: How To Updated To 13 From Core 4
Sep 27, 2010I set up my home server like 3 year ago on a Fedora core 4, I am running a NAT, firewall and FTP very smoothly on it. In the past 3 years, it has been doing perfectly without any modification/ upgrade. But recently, I just realized I might need a VPN server on it, but the recent release of OpenVPN doesn't support Fedora core 4 anymore, therefore I suddenly want to make an upgrade. I've read the articles/ manual for Fedora 13, yet I do not find any suggestion on how to upgrade to 13 from core 4.
how can I do an upgrade in the easiest manner as I don't want the server cease working too long (I need its NAT for my network).

After the fedora logo has finished loading up the white, and it has turned into the real logo, nothing happens.However, i can boot into fedora with the old kernel via grub, so i guess it is related to the kernel update.

View 2 Replies View RelatedFedora :: Requirement For Updated Software To A Reboot?
Feb 19, 2010I am relatively new to Fedora and appreciate it is intended to be a bleeding/leading edge distribution but the continual requests to reboot the computer after updates is intrusive and seems rather odd for a unix operating system. It is often not clear to me why it is necessary when I look at the names of the items triggering the request.

View 14 Replies View RelatedFedora :: Old Fc12 Packages Still On Updated Machine?
Jul 15, 2010I did my update back when F13 was first out. A lot of the F12 packages are still on the machine. Should I be concerned. My latest thing was dealing with the Kmod-Nvidia packages left behind from F12. Someone suggested removing them and once I did my updater did its job perfectly.
So, the question is do I need to remove all the F12 packages or should I wait until there is another conflict? Secondly, if I should remove them, is it a search and destroy mission or can I simply nuke them all in one grouping?
Fedora Installation :: How To Keep F13 Updated To Latest Release
Jul 31, 2010I'm currently running F11 x86 and want to update to F13 x64, so a new drive and fresh install and copy all the config & data from old drive. and Prey, a lot....I'll be installing F13 x64 later this weekend, But F14 will be out in a few months then F15 and so on.I've tried the upgrade option (x86 to x86 in the past) on the install dvd but it doesn't work and I wind up with a broken install and have to do a fresh install after saving most of the import data and config files, but I usually missing something and get hosed. Part of the problem could be using Nvidia drivers for video and several applications installed from several different repos.I've never been able to safely uninstall the Nvidia driver and still have a working system, let alone upgrade to a newer version and still get a visible desktop.
I was thinking that couldn't I just edit a yum file and point it to a new repository and have it upgrade the machine with out all the fuss?I followed a procedure once or twice on how to do a inplace upgrade, but that didn't work either. I'd like to keep the machine running the latest bits, but with all the pain and suffering I need a simpler method to do it. Is there a procedure or process I can run or follow to keep Fedora in sync with the latest release with out having to continuously swap disks, reinstall and copy critical data files?
Fedora :: Updated / Current Stateless Documentation?
Dec 29, 2010Everyone once in a while Google drives me nuts, this is one such case.Everything I have found from Fedora or Red Hat on stateless or even diskless implementations is old as dirt. Based on Fedora Core 4 or 7. Where is the updated or current documentation for Fedora 13 or 14? With everything going to clouds one would think stateless would be a hot topic again?At least diskless should be right?

Fedora :: Run Updates That Require Xulrnner To Be Updated
Jun 27, 2011I'm trying to run some updates that require xulrnner to be updated. It appears I have xulrunner for f14 and f15 installed and the f14 one is in conflict with the update. I don't know what xulrunner is for and I'm hesitant to just do a yum remove of the f14 one as I've learned that I can cripple or kill my system if I do this to the wrong programs.

Fedora :: Download And Install A Package (zip Package)
Mar 15, 2009Sometimes i have on some magazines or Internet Zip packages that are the answer of what i am looking for.
Wich tool and how can i do it? c Well, i am in position to say that i had downloaded from Internet or located the package in the Cd or DVD that comes with the magazine.
But now comes the big question. How can i put this package ( install) on my distro ???
Do i have to be a normal user or should it be root or su (superuser) ?
The packages that come with the distro is easy, because i select them and everything is done
As i told before, maybe this is a silly question, but i simple don't know how to install them and i need some of them to leave MS for good.

Jan 21, 2009I had to uninstall f10 from my system because it would lock up my system anywhere from 1 to 5 minutes into using it and noone could tell me why.
NOW, I put 9 back on my system and after it updates everything, it locks up again. it does give me the option of the new kernel and the original install's kernel and if I choose the original to boot with, I don't have any problems.
SO, is there any way to fix it, OR to exclude the kernel and initrd from being updated?

Checking, the newest kernel listed in grub.conf is the one I'm using, not the one I just installed. What do I need to do to get the updated kernel properly listed and ready to use?
