I installed Fedora 14 with the KDE desktop. Can I make Fedora boot to a terminal rather than the GUI? I would want to boot to the terminal just 1 time so I don't want to get rid of the GUI permanently.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI installed Ubuntu on my Netbook. I like it to use the Terminals. I don't mean the "GUI-Terminal-Emulators", I mean those I can open with "Alt+FX". There the font size is to big, so I changed it with "dpkg-reconfigure console-setup". It worked, but after restart the font were "reseted" and big. Is there a way to permanently change the font size?
View 4 Replies View RelatedI installed Debian 6 last night on an older Compaq. For the system to properly reboot and shutdown when requested, both acpi=force and reboot=warm must be in the boot parameters, this was required with other Linux distros installed on this hardware. Otherwise, the system erroneously shuts down when reboot is chosen.
I would like to know how to permanently add these so they pass each time the system is turned on.
I already added these to /etc/default/grub (and ran update-grub afterwards) and at the next startup, noticed they were NOT in the parameters when "e" was pressed at the boot menu.
make ubuntu as my default OS by removing windows. I formated windows drive and removed all the programs associated with it. I just want to remove the boot menu too... whenever I switch on my laptop, I need Ubuntu to come up without any prior selection.

View 4 Replies View RelatedI recently installed Fedora - it seems like a nice interface and I want to experience the system before deciding whether I want to keep using it over my ever reliable Crunchbang, which gives me absolutely no grief whatsoever. However, it is nice to use an attractive interface now and again.So, here's my problem - I opted to install the ATI drivers when alerted to the restricted ones by the pop-up. I took note of how to disable them again if there were problems with the display after reboot. There was a problem with the display (black screen) and I can't get the command entered at boot time because the only command line environment I have an option for is GRUB. Grib does not recognize any of the 'aticonfig --initial -f' command that ATI instructed me to use to get things back to normal. How do I do this? I prsume others have been there and will know how to guide me. - getting the graphical interface to display better graphics. I want the eye candy that desktop effects give. I am hoping Fedora won't let me down here because I could simply continue to use Ubuntu which only gives one problem with the window resize delay.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI came across the following method of how to permanently disabling selinux and it's notifications. Although changing enforcement from the gui into permissive mode does most of the job, the notifications still pop-up when some applications are started.
So to disable it do the following:
open terminal as root and execute:

And then change the SELINUX line to SELINUX=disabled

This is it. Now reboot the system and selinux will never bother you again.
If you are not a Fedora user and you are using this forum just because we are cooler here then you will not find the /etc/selinux/config as in the fedora releases. What you need to do is to edit the kernel boot line and add selinux=0 at the end:

Reboot the system
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?

View 10 Replies View RelatedI am running F12. With prior kernels - 2.6.31.9-174.fc12.i686 or before - I could simply rename the nouveau.ko driver to nouiveau.ko.bad. Then the kernel would load the nv driver instead, and everything worked great. FWIW: adding rdblacklist="nouveau" to the kernel params in grub.conf didn't seem to do anything.
On a recent update, a new kernel was added: 2.6.31.12-174.2.19.fc12.i686. I did the same rename trick as before, but this time the kernel still loaded the nouveau driver, and then X failed to load. So I had to fall back to the older kernel.
Is there a way to keep nouveau from loading with the newest kernel (ie, the one above)? And also, is there a way to keep nouveau from loading for any new kernels?

View 3 Replies View RelatedI am failing to set PATH for all the users on a linux box(Fedora 8), permanently. Basically, I have installed two different versions of python(2.5 & 2.7) Python2.5 path is /usr/bin and it is set by default for all users(not by me, also i don't know how ) and it is working fine.
Python2.7 path is /usr/bin/Python27/bin, so tried this:
PATH=$PATH:/usr/bin/Python27/bin
And it worked only for that particular session and for only root, as I set path from root user. So, i need this to be set for all the users on the linux box, including root, more importantly as permanent. So if any user types "python27" at the command prompt, it should give python2.7 prompt.
I am new to Linux. I installed JDK and Apache Tomcat recently but the problem is every time I want to work with them, I have to set the environment variables.
