Can I update from F12 32bit to F14 64bit without doing a fresh install, and preferably using preupdate? Would most of the already installed programs still work?
I have installed Fedora Core 12 and all seems fine. I have also set up the main repositories as was suggested on the following fedora set up guide website: [URL]. I have since tried to update my Fedora release with all the updates available, alas I get the following error message:

Downloaded from here: [URL] then ,it is 32-bit and I need to know what all 32-bit libs are needed as dependency for skype to work. I am on Gnome Fedora and purposefully selected static version of skype to prevent installation of libqt4.

Can anyone get the website below to work correctly with Firefox 3.5 and F11 64bit?[URL]...All I see is the background scrolling slowly and jerkily, none of the buttons at the bottom work. Reboot into Windows 7 and IE8: the same site is fast, smooth, the buttons work and the product details appear correctly in the centre of the screen.
I've tried disabling all adblock /pop up block options, ensured all javascript options are enabled and no change. Could this be a problem with the 64 bit flash player (installed from leigh's sticky thread) or a problem with OpenJDK?
Edit: now working, thanks very much Leigh and Dangermouse.
Anyone successfully installed AIR and iPlayer on F11?
I've switched to 32 bit Adobe flash, tried Autoten for AIR and Dangermouse's advice for iPlayer: url.html but it's not working, and trying to install AIR from url results in an endless busy downloading graphic .
I assume my problem is a lack of required packages, though I searched the repositories using YUM extender for the packages listed here: url.html and can't see them either as installed or available.

As i just started to write scripts, i'd obviously like automize some actions, therefor i'd like to check the users system if its 64bit. Is there a function to check this?
were's a good start to get into bash scripting, the files i use as template gave pretty much good info, but yet i have no idea what i'm actualy doing

I have Intel Pentium Dual Core E2180 / 2 GHz processor. i just upgraded my system with 4 memory sticks i.e. 7GB of RAM due to my requirements. Now the issue that i am facing is that my 32bit fedora system does not showing and suppoting more than 3.XX gigs of RAM when i consult "/proc/meminfo", "free -m" and "top". Now i have done two thing, first i have installed a PAE version of kernel. In result of this my system become two slow with the following error at startup. Error: starting udev: wait timeout. will continue in the background <Failed> Secondly, i installed a 64bit version of Fedora 10 but still it showing not more than 3GB of memory. Also a kernel bug system alerts me of not supporting more than 3gigs of RAM and ask me to send that bug to[URL]
Today I got update notification. I type in terminal yum update, and get this error: Quote: Error: Missing Dependency: libnetfilter_conntrack.so.1()(64bit) is needed by package iptstate-2.2.1-5.fc11.x86_64 (installed) You could try using --skip-broken to work around the problem You could try running: package-cleanup --problems package-cleanup --dupes rpm -Va --nofiles --nodigest
I removed iptstate.x86_64, again run yum update, and than, ibnetfilter_conntrack got installed. I tried to install iptstate.x86_64 again, but i get Quote:
I have a 3dsp pci wifi card, and the last kernel it supports is Ubuntu 10.04 2.6.32-(21-24) I want to update but dont want to accidentally update the kernal.
I have been trying to update from Fedora 10 to a newer version, when I try the auto update thing that pops up occasionally it says newer version available and lists Fedora 11, when I click on the preinstall which I thought was some info on it iyt starts trying to update to Fedora 12. I posted about this earlier (I can not even find the thread any more) and an administrator pointed me to a wiki which stated there is no way to get from 10 to 12. My question is how do I even get to 11, when I tried the preinstall the trouble I ran into was no space in /boot. I tried to remove other installs and when I went to the preinstall again it froze and I waited an hour then switched off the machine. Upon rebooting I got a message missing file and could not boot at all so i reinstalled Fedora 10. Now I am stuck as I tried a yum install as another suggested and could not get repository, and I had a working internet connection. I also seen in your list of laptops that work my laptop works but has some problems with internet. I can not use wireless, in reality I occasionally can use wireless, what I can always use is my sprint cdma broadband card, will I lose this if I try to upgrade, would I be best to try and burn an iso image and if so is there any way to figure out if it has cdma support?
My office PC is offline, so I download updates/12/x86_64/{drpms,repodata} from fedora reposiroty to my home PC then copying them to my office PC's ftp server. Then I use yum to update from my own repository server. But I found the drpms are not enough to perform a complete updating. Some *.rpm pakage are still need download.
My question is: How do I know which package should be complete downloaded from rpm and which package download the drpm is enough?
I can install and update Fedora11 as well as other softwares at my office through internet. However, at home I don't have any net connection. Is it possible that I collect all files including their dependencies from my office computer in a pen drive and then update my home computer?
In Fedora 10 evolution 2.24.5 is installed. I have downloaded and extracted evolution-2.30.1 to my home folder. Evolution still shows 2.24.5 not 2.30.1. How do I update 2.24.5 to 2.30.1? Do I just commamd install 2.30.1, and if so, how?
I recently upgraded Fedora 9 to Fedora 10 on a triple boot system (Fedora 9, Win XP and Ubuntu 8.04). The upgrade seemed to run fine until rewriting the boot loader, which failed. The old Fedora 9 entries remained. The Fedora 10 installation is found by Supergrub but attempting to boot generates the error: Error 15: File not found
Earlier today I was simply on my laptop watching videos, I finish, shut my PC down. I reboot hours later only to get greeted by the Fedora Boot Splash Screen and shortly after nothing but blackness, no login screen or nothing, I see the mouse cursor shortly after the boot splash for 2 seconds then it disappears. I made no recent changes to any files besides applying some updates via the package manager, I had to recently reformat due to a self-blunder and lost crucial data, now a week has passed and I've managed to "rebuild" my data loss back up. Now this is hindering my college course work which is done online.
I have a number of systems with Fedora on them, they are connected to a network but are not allowed to connect to the internet. So I am trying to find a solution to patch these systems in a simple way.My solution which i thought of, however, still having a problem with is as follows:
1- Download the files from the "repodata" (e.g. for "update" repository) using a machine that is connected to the internet.
2- Copy these files(e.g. using flash drive) to one on of these Fedora systems into the /var/cache/yum/i386/12/updates (or /var/cache/yum/updates for older versions).
3- Run "yum -C check-update" (-C so it will not try to update and will use the local files). (I am having a problem at this step and I get this message "no such table: packages", the solution that i found on the internet suggested cleaning the cache which is not what i want to do!).
4- After getting the list of needed files I will parse the primary.xml.gz file and grab the actual file names then append the base URL to them and save it into a file.
5- take that file to the online machine and run wget to grab all needed patches.
6- Take the files back to the system and put them in (i think /var/cache/yum/i386/12/updates/packages/) and run "yum -C update" However, now i am having a problem with step 3 and also not sure if step 6 is correct.
So does any of you guys know how to solve this, or if there is a better or easier way to do this??* Keep in mind that those machines are not allowed to connect to the internet or even connect to another machine that is connected, but we still need to patch them and keep them secure.
I have a crash that occurred after first install while updating. The update was 1.2GB Had to reboot 5 times to complete the update downloading process. Much of what I read suggests KDE, xorg and qemu as part of what is causing the crash, but I haven't found a similar issue. After the update completed installation the crashes were less severe but still occur when updating.
Code: yum update The latest crash occurred after yum update and left a large amount of information in konsole. It disables wireless networking so not sure how the bug is related. During the first yum update I had to reboot the system to get full functionality back. After the first update I just had to wait for system to return to normal.
