Red Hat / Fedora :: Fresh Fedora Install And Missing Taskbars?

Jul 23, 2010

problem, I have just installed Fedora 13 on to a new build but for some reason I am missing the top and bottom taskbars. I can see the GNOME desktop with two icons, I have managed to get yum running, which is currently downloading updates. I have used the same live CD on other systems with incident.Just wondering if there is some thing I could try to reset or start a service setting etc to get the taskbars to show?

Ubuntu Multimedia :: Sound Driver Missing In Fresh Install?

Sep 15, 2010

I've never had any problems before,but I just did a fresh install of 10.04.1 on a brand new drive yesterday. I noticed this morning that I have no sound drivers(under the hardware tab of sound preferences, there is nothing listed). I found a thread that had this line to run:

Code:
cat /proc/asound/card0/codec#* | grep Codec
And I got:
Code:
Codec: Realtek ALC888
Not sure what to do now though.

Fedora Installation :: Fresh F12 Install But No GUI

Feb 16, 2010

I recently bought an F12 DVD (from a UK supplier) which I took to be a "full distribution". But looking back on the web site it was not described as such. After booting I selected the Replace Existing Linux System option and it listed the installation of 204 packages - much smaller than the 933 packages when I installed F9.
The kernel is now FEDORA (2.6.31.5-127.fc12.i686.PAE)

My problem is that I am now faced with a very intimidating terminal. I am sure the installation did not offer a graphical interface. I have tried to get Gnome running by following the Installation Guide :-
1) 7.4.2 Booting into a Graphical Environment
I type in -gedit /etc/inittab
and I get back --bash: gedit: command not found

2) 15.3 Switching to a Graphical Login
I type -yum group install "GNOME Desktop Environment"
Response -Error: Cannot retrieve repository metadata (repomd.xml) for repository: fedora. Please verify its path and try again.

3) Again under 15.3 - bullet point 3)
Type -/etc/inittab
Response --bash: /etc/inittab: permission denied

I have now run out of ideas. I'm sure it is not supposed to be difficult but I don't understand the implications of the command line responses. I really don't want to be condemned to a win dependency.

Fedora :: 14 Fresh Install - Not Booting ?

Jan 1, 2011

I have a problem with fresh installation of Fedora 14. I've installed it from LiveCD, everything worked fine, but after installing security updates, Fedora stoped working. I mean, not immediately, but right after rebooting. Firstly, I got 1 more option to choose in Grub (which system).

This was also in Ubuntu, so I choosed the first option,- Fedora stopped booting right before the end. Also the second option didn't boot, and now I have to use this ugly Vista

I don't know what to do, reinstalling whole system won't be a problem, but what if it repeats?

It's Fedora 14 using GNOME with i686 architecture.

Fedora Installation :: Cannot Update After Fresh Install Of F11

Oct 1, 2009

I recently finished a fresh reinstall of Fedora 11 on my ASUS EeePC 1000HA today. Once I rebooted, it asked for the usual "first time user thing" and I proceeded. After that screen, I was brought to the loging manager, so I logged in, and was presented with my destkop. I fired up the terminal, added myself to the sudoer's file and did a "sudo yum update" but was given the following error (the beginning of the text got cut off due to how lengthy the update list was): [URL].

Fedora :: Httpd Error 98 On Fresh Install?

May 15, 2011

Sometimes httpd (the apache web server) fails to start and displays an error (98: Address already in use: make_sock: could not bind to address xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:80). This happens even when no other service is listening on port 80, as evident from the output of "lsof -i :80" and "netstat -A inet -lnp". This is due to a configuration file mixup. Both /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf and /etc/httpd/conf.d/system-config-httpd.conf contain the directive "Listen :80". If you comment out the "Listen 80" in /etc/httpd/conf.d/system-config-httpd.conf, httpd will again start.

Fedora Installation :: Fresh Install F15 And Can't Login

May 28, 2011

I decide to install F15 (other machines run F14) and after a pretty smooth install and reboot, I try to login and get the message "Oh no, something has gone wrong. A problem has occurred and the system can't recover. Please log out and try again". But no matter how long I try, I keep getting this message. Then I go to crt-alt-F2, and try to "yum install gnome-panel". Then it shows that I don't have any network connection at all, even though I did install my network. I'm thinking of installing F14 now.

Fedora :: GRUB Fails On Fresh Install?

Jun 18, 2011

I'm trying to install FC15 x64, the install goes smooth and reports no errors, I looked around in /tmp/anaconda.log but couldn't see any relevant errors either, basically after rebooting and trying to boot my new install, I get:

error: file not found
Entering recue mode...
grub rescue> _

I've reinstalled 3 times now, first I was using USB, but now have tried with CD too. All I want is for GRUB to be installed on /dev/sda2 which is where my install is, and which is also the default location where the installer supposedly installs it to. I've also tried unplugging my other hard disks, and installing with just the first drive.

Fedora Networking :: BCM4312 Not Working Under F11 With Fresh Install

Jun 12, 2009

Just tried new Fedora 11 yesterday, did a fresh install with ext3 /boot and ext4 file system, booting looks great, but wireless doesn't work. I have tried using broadcom-wl, dnmouse script, dnmouse broadcom f11 rpm, fwcutter but not ndiswrapper

Code:
# rpm -qa | grep broadcom
broadcom-wl-5.10.79.10-2.fc11.noarch

Code:
# lspci -nn
02:00.0 Network controller [0280]: Broadcom Corporation BCM4312 802.11b/g [14e4:4315] (rev 01)

Code:
# lspci -vvv | grep 4312
02:00.0 Network controller: Broadcom Corporation BCM4312 802.11b/g (rev 01)
Subsystem: Hewlett-Packard Company BCM4312 802.11b/g Wireless LAN Controller
ifconfig only shows eth0, lo and pan0 interfaces, and got nothing from iwconfig...

Code:
# iwconfig
lo no wireless extensions.
eth0 no wireless extensions.
pan0 no wireless extensions.

Even tried to blacklist b43 after installing broadcom-wl driver, but no luck. Broadcom-wl works fine with Fedora 10 on my laptop, is it possibly because of the new ext4 file system? Should I try ndiswrapper or install Fedora 10 again and do a preupgrade? I also use fedora at work.

Fedora Installation :: X Doesn't Start On Fresh Install (x64)

Jul 31, 2009

I just downloaded the F11 x64 DVD iso, and I when I try to install it, after the media check screen, Anaconda starts it load, but it says "X failed to start, falling back to text mode" (or something like that).
The install goes through (in text mode), and all that gets installed is the basic environment.

My specs:
- AMD X2 Phenom II 550 Callisto
- 4gb DDR2 800 memory
- 1tb Samsung SATA / 100gb Western Digital SATA
- 2x XFX Geforce 9600gt 1gb
- ASRock K10N780SLIX3-WIFI motherboard

I've tried Ubuntu x86 on the same system, but I was having issues with it, so I decided to try FC11 instead.

Fedora Installation :: F13 Fresh Install From HDD Fails With Db_version_mismatch

Jun 7, 2010

I'm currently running F11 and am trying to replace it with a fresh install of F13, using the same partitioning layout. I downloaded the F13 i386 DVD ISO using bit torrent. (The sha256sum of my downloaded ISO matches the reference sha256sum value.) I'm trying to do the fresh install of this ISO from hard drive (without burning a DVD). Last summer I did the same procedure of installing a downloaded DVD ISO from HDD when replacing F9 with F11. The installer (Anaconda 13.42) proceeds to the point where I specify my custom partitioning layout. It then prompts me about storing a boot loader. Shortly after I reply to that, the installer gets an "unhandled exception".

rpmdb: Program version 4.8 doesn't match environment version 4.7
error: db3 error (-30971) from dbenv -> open: DB_VERSION_MISMATCH

The only nonstandard thing I did was the following. According to the F13 installation guide, for installation from HDD the file "install.img" from within the ISO files must be copied to a directory named "images". The F13 installation guide gives the following procedure:

mount -t iso9660 /path/to/Fedora13.iso /mnt/point -o loop,ro
cp -pr /mnt/point/images /path/images/
umount /mnt/point

Instead, I used "Archive Manager" to extract "install.img" from my DVD ISO. I copied it to a directory named "images".

Fedora :: Accessing Samba Shares From Fresh F15 Install

Jun 6, 2011

I am having a problem accessing my samba shares from my notebook that has a fresh install of Fedora 15. I know that the server with the samba shares is working since I can access them from the windose box. I have just moved from using Ubuntu to Fedora and have definitely found my home. How would I tell if samba is running (or any service for that matter) on my notebook? I Installed samba-client

Code:
yum install samba-client

Though I still cannot access the shares. All it shows is windows network.

Fedora :: Possible To Install KDE On Fresh HDD To Recover Lost Info?

Jun 28, 2011

I was following a tutorial about 6 months ago that I think may have been for a different version of Fedora than I was running. Long story short I screwed up my installation and cannot get past this screen. The login screen has lost all of it's custom GUI theme and I can't log in. For one reason because after 6 months I can't remember my password (which is also strange because I only use the same few passwords for OS logins). I also get this error that pops up and then goes away on it's own.

Install Problem!
The configuration manager defaults for GNOME power manager have not been installed correctly. Please contact your computer administrator. I also get a caution sign icon like this one in the system tray on the login page. When I click on it it tells me that:
Starting Avahi deamon... [FAILED]

I'm not sure I want to spend the time fixing the install as I was planning on giving KDE a spin. I do, however, want to be able to recover some files on the partitions that Fedora was using. Can I just install Fedora KDE on a fresh hard drive and be able to see those partitions automatically and then transfer it to an external? Or will I have to find and mount all of those partitions manually? Also, will I even be able to gain access to those files considering I don't remember my password?
