View 2 RepliesI'm having an issue with samba and trying to reinstall it. I uninstalled samba with this command
}sudo apt-get remove samba
or
sudo apt-get purge samba
After either one of these steps, i noticed that the /etc/samba/ directory still existed, which was odd since I thought i uinstalled samba. So, I proceeded to remove all of the fiels within the /etc/samba/ directory and removed the samba directory as well. After this, I tried to reinstall samba with this command:
sudo apt-get install samba
After this installation step, the /etc/samba directory does not exist and neither does the smb.conf file and other files within he /etc/samba directory exist after installation. When I type :
testparm -s
I get the following message:
Load smb config files from /etc/samba/smb.conf
rlimit_max: rlimit_max (1024) below minimum Windows limit (16384)
params.c:OpenConfFile() - Unable to open configuration file "/etc/samba/smb.conf":
No such file or directory
Error loading services.
I'm trying to get my samba up and running again.
I can't track down..On most of my Slackware -current installs (I have 6 installs altogether) I can no longer get conky to adjust via .conkyrc Conky from SlackBuilds The problem is for some reason it's stuck at top of screen, with the whole upper-half not visible off screen.. I have tried adjusting .conkyrc, tried uninstalling/reinstalling tried adjusting how it starts in .fluxbox/startup all to no avail. I am starting it with either
conky -d
conky &
conky -d &
all the same result. Somehow I "fixed" one of the installs, and tried the same "fix" on the others and it didn't work..I am also trying to start either fbpanel or lxpanel either before or after conky...same results Is there another app (not gkrellm) that will do same as conky?
It was recommended to me that I remove pulseaudio and re-install alsa. All the howtos on reinstalling alsa had instructions for re-installing alsa from the source. Is it possible to re-install alsa from the repos? If so what are the necessary packages that I need to install, for a complete re-install of alsa?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI've got a server running on some old hardware miles away from me, to convert to a newer version seems counter-productive as I'm happy with what's there, just want to add a few packages, but yum can't find the repos - have they been totally removed or are they still mirrored somewhere?

I am stuck very badly. Can't download/update using yum. If you could send me your entire yum.repos.d folder there would be nothing like it.

View 5 Replies View RelatedI made quite a bit of partitions of different Linux distributions in an attempt to compile a massive program. (To those who do a bit of weather research, I'm trying to compile both WRF and WPS on 64 bit Linux.) I finally compiled the program on 64 bit Fedora 14, and now I'm running out of space on this partition. Is there a way to increase the size of a partition without uninstalling the current OS? I don't mind what happens to the other partitions, but I put quite a bit of effort in this current one. Also, the program demands that all of the data be contained in the same home directory, so I can't keep files in other partitions.

View 2 Replies View Relatediam an old linux user (debian,suse and ubuntu) and i installed now fedora on my box to learn something new about other distros. fedora 12 is realy nice, but i got some questions about some things.
-> why i can not find a newer wine version 1.1.37 in the standard repos (i marked already all repos in the "add-remove software" tool, but not the testing one for fedora13)can somebody tell me where i find an actual repos for the newest wine package?
I have various repos in my yum.repos.d including rawhide, google, and various others which I can enable on specific yum commands with --enablerepo=reponame.
Question is, how come these aren't enabled by default? When I do a yum repolist they don't show up, which effectively leaves orphan programs.
I can see why you might not want rawhide enabled by default for obvious update reasons, but I might want others to be enabled by default, like google for one.
So how is the default repo anabling/disabling controlled?
Is it possible to temporarily enable all repos from within the command line? It would be useful when searching for packages. ie yum enablerepo=* search tint2 (which doesn't work btw!)
View 4 Replies View RelatedI installed the USP live ver of Fedora on my laptop and have no issues. I installed the DVD ver on my brother computer. On my computer I can yum install pmidi. On his it says pmidi not found. I had to find the rpm on-line to get it for him. I may have made a mistake at the beginning of the DVD install when it asked what repos I wanted. I just went with the default Fedora.repo. Am I missing repos on his computer? How do I add them. I already added the Adobe and Fushion repos no issue.
View 1 Replies View RelatedWhy it need to sync the repos database every time? Fedora is not a rolling release distro, so the packages don't change so often.. only with minor updates..For example: I have absolute certainty that emesene-1.6 is the same for the last 12 months, and I want to install it quickly.. what can I do to circumvent yum's obsession with repo syncing?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI had been running the official build from the OOo Web site. I've deleted that and now want to install the version from the Fedora repos. yum install openoffice.org* yum's response: No package openoffice.org* available. Error: Nothing to do Then I tried to be more explicit:
yum install openoffice.org-calc openoffice.org-impress openoffice.org-writer openoffice.org-base openoffice.org-draw
yum's response:
No package openoffice.org-calc available.
No package openoffice.org-impress available.
No package openoffice.org-writer available.
[code]....
Why isn't OOo in the repos? Is it removed when a new build is being made for the repos?
just installed Fedora 15 and was just wondering....
I want to install the 3rd party repos... I found these........
[url]
[url]
But for 15... would I install the rawhide one for rpmfusion? cause the other options are for older Fedora's.... or is there an updated rpmfusion etc for Fedora 15 that hasn't arrived yet? How does it work in this regards so I can have up to date 3rd party packages etc?
I intended to upgrade to fedora 15 but my old laptop only has 512mb so I have to stick with 14 (which is good anyway). I did this at the command line on the way the upgrade:
1)yum -y update
2)rpm --import http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pu...EY-fedora-i386
3)rpm -Uvh http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pu...5-1.noarch.rpm http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pu...5-1.noarch.rpm
When I realised my error, I removed rpmfusion-free & nonfree, xfce-4.8.repo & virtualbox.repo which I had installed after installing 14.
Now I am stuck with the fedora 15 repos in /etc/yum.repos.d/: fedora-rawhide-repo, fedora-repo, fedora-updates.repo & fedora-updates-testing-repo
Is there a way to select different flash plugins to use (e.g. the Adobe one, one of the open source ones) without having to uninstall the one you don't want to use at the moment and install the one you do want to use? I know this exists for Java with the alternatives command - does it exist for Flash?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI installed the proprietary nVidia driver on my Fedora 14 x86_64 laptop, but then went back to the nouveau driver. Now System Monitor won't launch. From the command line I get:
$ ksysguard
ksysguard: error while loading shared libraries: libnvidia-tls.so.260.19.21: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
I reinstalled it, which went without error, but I still get the same error as above. I also tried installing libnvidia-tls, but yum just said there is no such package. Of course, the package is part of the nVidia proprietary driver package, but I don't want to reinstall that. I have the KDE desktop installed, but normally I boot to Gnome. How can I get ksysguard to run again?

i just installed fedora 9, but realized that i had installed the x86 version (it came on a dvd in linux format magazine). i didn't know that the "only-3gb-of-ram-for-x86" applied to linux, as my previous machines i used it on had under 3gb anyway. so anyway, is there a way to switch to the x86_64 version without downloading and reinstalling it? kinda like ubuntu's distro upgrade (not sure if other distros have it?)
