Fedora :: Yum Stalls After Installing Rpmfusion
Dec 19, 2009
I started with a fresh install of fedora 12. I have never encountered this problem before but yum seems to stall when I install rpmfusion packages. I have tried this multiple times, it works as long as I do not install them.
It stalls after this line.
Code:
I am guessing it has to do with the rpmfusion servers/mirrors? I just want to install the propreitary wireless and graphics card drivers, can this be done without using rpmfusion? (i.e. alternatives to kmod-wl and kmod-nvidia)

I am wondering if there is someone who have succeeded in installing the driver for nVidia GT 330M from RPMFusion in Fedora 13.
I followed the instructions here [url], namely,
1. recreate the initrd manually
2.yum install kmod-nvidia-PAE
It didn't work. I also tried the method mentioned at the section 'Troubleshooting', but it did not either.
The trouble I encountered after rebooting is : The progress bar changed from an icon at the center to three lines at bottom. After the three lines reached at the end, the whole screen just went to blank.
I am guessing that the three lines, instead of the icon, only shows if your video card is not so powerful. And In my case, the reason could be the driver didn't work properly.

I am a start level person in linux with switching between linux and windows projects. I am trying to install vlc media player. But as observed through net, it requires rpmfusion first, it has some links about finding requisite tools and installing them.
1) First step: installing rpm fusion:
TRY1:
I went to "www.rpmfusion.org/configuration" and used the following command:
*********************************************
# su -c 'rpm -Uvh http://download1.rpmfusion.org/free/el/updates/testing/5/i386/rpmfusion-free-release-5-0.1.noarch.rpm http://download1.rpmfusion.org/nonfree/el/updates/testing/5/i386/rpmfusion-nonfree-release-5-0.1.noarch.rpm'
*********************************************
But I got the following result:
*********************************************
Retrieving http://download1.rpmfusion.org/free/el/updates/testing/5/i386/rpmfusion-free-release-5-0.1.noarch.rpm
error: skipping http://download1.rpmfusion.org/free/el/updates/testing/5/i386/rpmfusion-free-release-5-0.1.noarch.rpm - transfer failed - Unknown or unexpected error

I have a laptop with an nvidia graphics card: GeForce 9200 Nouveau causes problems, I can't boot the Live F14 CD except in safe graphics mode. I want to install F14. I have F12 and use kmod-nvidia How do I tell the installed F14 to boot in safe graphics mode? Some command line parameter? Or alternatively: how do I get the rpmfusion repos written into yum.repos.d? After that I can install kmod-nvidia. if I can't boot into GUI, I don't know how to write to /etc/yum.repos.d

Every time I try to install my updates for the past week or so, I get this box: [URL]. If I hit yes, I get this box: [URL], and if I hit cancel, all my updates fail. How can I fix this?

Something I haven't see explained or discussed here. On a new install should we do a full update and then setup the rpmfusion repositories or setup the rpmfusion repositories and then do a full update?

Just wondering whether there are plans to upgrade the x264 in the rpmfusion repo to a more recent build. These are the current ones in rpmfusion and what I have installed. Build date is October 2009.
Code:
x264.x86_64
0.0.0-0.24.20090319gitc109c8.fc11 @rpmfusion-free
x264-devel.x86_64
0.0.0-0.24.20090319gitc109c8.fc11 @rpmfusion-free
x264-libs.x86_64
0.0.0-0.24.20090319gitc109c8.fc11 installed
Available Packages x264-devel.i586 0.0.0-0.24.20090319gitc109c8.fc11
rpmfusion-free
x264-libs.i586
0.0.0-0.24.20090319gitc109c8.fc11
rpmfusion-free
Unfortunately things like h264enc and I'm sure others have moved on ahead and the dependencies on the x264 libraries means things like ffmpeg, mencoder, gstreamer, vlc, avidemux are having issues. With major dependencies it's difficult to upgrade the individiual components. A couple of examples, ffmpeg requires a newer build as it has some issues with MS's dvr-ms format. Apparently it was fixed in a newer release of the code. Another is some of the encode parameters in x264 being used in h264enc such as "weightp", "mbtree" which appear to be only supported in newer versions of the x264 libraries. Any chance that this is being looked at and newer and more recent builds of x264, and then I suspect with mencoder, ffmpeg etc...?

I opened a bug report on this in the RPMFusion bugzilla and other people have asked on the mailing list over there, without an answer.why the Fedora 14 repos are empty? See: [URl] Both i386 and x86_64 are empty in both the free and nonfree trees. Though strangely the updates trees for F14 are populated.

I was one of those chomping at the bit to get F15 going, and as a result I had enabled the Rawhide repos before the F15 repos were posted. Now that the F15 repos at RPMFusion are there, I should move off Rawhide, correct? And this is as simple as removing the existing repo files from /etc/yum.repos.d and then installing the new ones from RPMFusion? No extra steps necessary?

when RPMfusion will have the ATI catalyst driver for Fdedora 14 in its repo? If it is going to take a log time then I might just install it from ATI's site, but I'd rather not go through all the trouble if I don't have to.

I use Fedora 15.Not sure if I understand how EPEL is related to rpmfusion. Is EPEL a branch of rpmfusion or are they a completely different projects? What other major 3-rd party repositories would you recommend for Fedora?

I am trying to upgrade my F12 system ti F15 using the PreUgrade route. The initial package download goes Ok but on re-boot I can only access my old F12 system. df reports 44M avail in /boot which is on sdd1. Since I do have a multiboot system I checked that there was an "update" folder under "boot" and that it had the update versions of vmlinuz and initrd which it had. I edited "menu 1st" as described in the Pre-Upgrade notes setting the root entry to (hd0,0) as used for my working system and then did a re-boot. I selected the new upgrade entry in the GRUB menu but the system complained that it couldn't find a file. I have tried using root (hd3,0) but this does not work either. What am I doing wrong?

I would prefer to be able to use the rpmfusion nvidia driver instead of the closed driver but when I try it, KDE4 runs fine for a while but then the whole display starts blinking and the cpu % goes to 99% for XMy PC is Fedora 12 x86_64, the video card is a XFX 8800GT[URL]1) installed the kmod-nvidia-190.53-1.fc12.1.x86_64 and dependencies2) blocked nouveau with rdblacklist=nouveau in grub.conf, 3) Ran: setsebool -P allow_execstack on4) fixed the xorg.conf (I had to move my old xorg.conf out of the way and merged my DontZap option back in)
5) rebootedI did not yum remove the nouveau driver,.... didn't seem necessary.My desktop will run for a while but inevitably starts flashing uncontrollably. I can't even ssh to it to run init 3 to kill X (I can ssh to it but for some reason I can't su to root to kill X).

The driver has crashed X and before I had a chance to find RPMfusion instructions on dealing with initrd, I removed the package just to keep X running.Uninstalling the package does not restore kernel and Xorg operation. I am still in VESA mode.Although they claim they don't put stuff in non-standard places and use RPM, still there is something left over, as nuoveau driver no longer loads.Now that system configuration is all over the place, it is not clear what they actually changed or replaced.

1. Are there any USB wireless (802.11) sticks that work with the standard FC13 load? The Rosewill card almost works with the DVD load but breaks with the first updates. After playing with the rt2870 and losing every time, I would just like to get a usb wireless adapter that works.
2. If there is no such animal, is there a PCI wireless card that works without a major Kabuki dance prior to setup?
3. Finally, if I do not want to me in the world of GUIs and want a bare machine to run wireless, is there some place to find how to set up a wireless network with WPA2 using the /etc/init.d/network, instead of NetworkManager.

After upgrading from Fedora 13 to 14 via preupgrade (works well), the nvidia drivers for my "nVidia Corporation GT218 [NVS 3100M] (rev a2)" (it's a ThinkPad T410S) work - including 3D, but every thing paints slowly. The Desktop Effects work, but everything visual (menus painting, dragging windows, etc.) are all noticeably slow (and worked fine in F13).
Update - apparently this issue is related to the GTK theme in use. The default (Fedora, or Clearlooks, or a few others) results in this slow behaviour. Other themes, like Nodoka and a few others perform fine.

The actual nvidia driver version (260.1912) does not work for my laptop (a Sony Vaio F11 series type, see bottom of page [URL]), I would like to install an older version (e.g. 256.53). Up to now, I cannot figure out how to tell yum to pick up an older version. Is there a way to do this (because kmod-nvidia is a meta package, there may be problems?), or do I have to install 256.53 manually (using the installer provided by nvidia)?

I am trying to set up k3b. It complains about a missing mp3 decoder. Following this solution, I set up yum to use the livna repository and then found I actually needed the rpmfusion repo, so set that up as well. Now when I run "yum install k3b-extras-nonfree", I end up with a transaction error: Transaction Check Error: file /usr/lib64/libfaad.so.2.0.0 from install of faad2-libs-1:2.7-1.fc11.x86_64 conflicts with file from package libfaad2-1:2.7-16.fc12.x86_64
Any idea why the repo is trying to install faad2-libs x86_64 1:2.7-1.fc11 rpmfusion-free when all the other objects are correctly shown as fc12 and how do I get around this without breaking something which is already installed?

Today I had to debug something going on with yum, if you run it normally with rpmfusion using the mirrorlist's, it hangs at "collecting package sack". If you edit the rpmfusions repo files to point at the baseurl for each, it works fine or you can disable the rpmfusion repos entirely. I saw this was a problem a couple of weeks back but thought this was fixed.
UPDATE Nevermind, this is a known problem [URL]
I'm having trouble doing a delete on this message, doesn't the forum have the "delete message" check box in the Edit mode anymore? I don't see it now.

I am doing a clean install of Fedora 13 XFCE4 spin from the live CD. Live CD boots and functions normally. Installation from Live CD works as advertised up to point where the installer starts to copy the disk image to the HD. Progress bar initially moved fairly rapidly then stopped and installations stalls.
I've tried the installation three times with the same result. I've seen other posts referring to problems with SELinux, but this should not be a factor here as the install is clean.

When rebooting a fresh Fedora 15 install or even after the end stage of the actual installation itself, my Acer Aspire One (AOA110) with 16GB SSD and 3309 BIOS just stalls.
I have tried installing to the SSD and also to an external USB connected HDD.
In all cases the actual reboot process stalls when shutting down and I have to power cycle the netbook to reboot it. The boot process works perfectly and F15 starts up fine.
If I use a "poweroff" command instead of a "reboot" command, the netbook powers off correctly. It's just the reboot that doesn't work. All updates have been applied to F15.
I should mention that it works correctly under F14...
