Does anyone know its whereabouts? :)Some of the things I have downloaded from there which dont seem to be in the yum repos are: git, ffmpeg, htop

I'm using Fedora 8 and subversion 1.4.4. I just want to upgrade subversion to version 1.6 and tried with rpmforge. But rpmforge is used for Centos, not for Fedora I ran 'yum --enablerepo=rpmforge update subversion' but it displayed error
Code:
Error: Missing Dependency: libneon.so.25()(64bit) is needed by package subversion-1.6.12-0.1.el5.rf.x86_64 (rpmforge)
Error: Missing Dependency: python(abi) = 2.4 is needed by package subversion-1.6.12-0.1.el5.rf.x86_64 (rpmforge)
I installed python 2.5 in my server, but it still displays errors. Is there the way to upgrade subversion without a source?
I have a RHEL Desktop and I added the rpmforge repo and yum installed VLC - the install itself run through without any problems, but when I try to start VLC, nothing happens. When I run a music or movie file and say open with VLC - nothing happens. I installed mplayer but it seems to have problems with playing streams and I'd prefer vlc anyway...I tried now several fresh installations using CentOS 5.2, RHEL Server 5.3 and RHEL Desktop 5.3 - same result .. VLC installs without being able to actually start it.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI don't know if this would be usefull to others but since we are using kickstart and then running post install scripts I needed a way to add rpmforge and set the yum-priorities for it correctly via script and here is what I cam up with. If you want to use go ahead (make sure you comment/uncomment the correct repo for your architecture). also not the ex commands are whitespace sensitive. If anyone sees a way to improve this let me know.

i have ubuntu 10.04 64 bit installed and configured and working sweet. I have reinstalled windows 7 and now i can't boot ubuntu i've tried easybcd to add ubuntu to win boot loader which failed and tried to follow the instructions to reinstall grub through a live cd which i am in at the moment. i go to a terminal and type sudo grub and it brings up the grub prompt. i have mounted all discs and entered the command find /boot/grub/stage1 and it keeps spitting this back at me Error 15: File not found
my hd is a 80gb with partions like this
/dev/sda1 105mb ntfs system reserved
/dev/sda2 45gb ntfs win 7 home premium 64 bit
/dev/sda3 34gb ext4 ubuntu 10.04 64 bit
/dev/sda4 1.5gb linux swap
I ran this command on a new centos 5.6 64 bit install today: rpm -Uhv http://apt.sw.be/redhat/el5/en/x86_64/rpmforge/RPMS//rpmforge-release-0.3.6-1.el5.rf.x86_64.rpm Sadly I failed to read a warning about setting priorities as a prerequisite to avoid rpmforge overwriting base Centos packages.
The install is a standard Cpanel web/email server and seems ok at the moment. My concern is I intend to clone this VS about ten times. Should I be concerned and if so, is there any way I can safely undo the rpmforge install? Eg can I use "rpm -e rpmforge-release-0.5.2-2.el5.rf" without vile consequences?

I read a long time ago that this would sort of work on Windows XP, but with stability issues. However, I have a hunch that on a modern Linux there shouldn't be any problems.
View 5 Replies View RelatedI accidentally wrecked my internet connection by uninstalling some part of KDE that controlled the network. (How am I here? I used a liveCD to get online.) Since the only way I know how to install any Linux software is via the internet, how am I supposed to reinstall the needed network software if I can't get online to get it? The only solution I know is to reinstall the entire distro.
I wish I could use my distro's liveCD to reinstall software without reinstalling the entire distro, but if that's possible, I've never known how.
A few months ago I unstalled Ubuntu on my PC and was dual booting it and Vista. It worked great, love ubuntu. However I did have to run windows for some things so Dual booting was a perfect set up. However, recently my windows messed up and I had to reinstall it. Now when I start my computer I don't have the option to boot Ubuntu and I can only run vista. My hard drive is still partitioned so I'm pretty sure Ubuntu is still there, just unaccessable.Do you guys(or girls) have any ideas on how I can boot Ubuntu without having to reinstall?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI would like to reinstall debian on my server. It runs a self-compiled 4.0 because of the SATA controller that was not recognized at that time and the only solution was to recompile with the driver. Now, I did a test with an empty drive with V5.04 and the controller is recognized out of the box. I tried to install again, text-based and graphical, but in both modes I have to repartition. Is there a way to reinstall without losing data/reformat/repartition, and if yes, can you point me in the right direction because google or searching the forum did not deliver any solution.

View 1 Replies View RelatedIn my company's production server, there are already mysql, php and httpd packages installed and running. Configurations are already made to the httpd.conf and my.cnf files.
Now I have to upgrade the packages to the latest version. I have to perform a yum update for the whole system first, then reinstall the packages right?
Will this affect the changes made to the configuration files? If yes, how do I upgrade so that the changes are not affected?

View 1 Replies View RelatedI had to delete my swap partition in order to reinstall win XP, but now I need to reinstall it. I run Ubuntu 10.04 and read that there is a command $ sudo mkswap /dev/sda1. I have about 19 GB of free unpartitioned space left on the hardrive that I want to make into a swap partition. I'm not sure whether I should use sda1 or if the book uses it as an example and if I use it it could wipe away my existing partition with ubuntu installed on it.

Someone compile the kernel for me because he said my laptop network card is not recognized in the 2.6.18 released. I am not sure how he did it. I am a bit worried because if I reinstall again, I will face the same problem that my network card is not recognized!.
View 12 Replies View RelatedI've had problems with my Ubuntu partition on my computer, so I have decided that I might have to format the partition or reinstall Ubuntu.
My problem is that I have files on my partition that I would like to save. I've tried every tool I've found that allows Ext2 to be read in Windows, but none of them work for me. The best I have gotten is that I would be able to see the folders in /, but that is it. I was wondering if it was possible to reinstall Ubuntu without having to erase the partition.
