Since about half a year ago I downloaded the 11th version of Fedora from the official web page but when trying to install it (I tried booting from cd) it loads everything all right, I get the fedora loading screen, but when it finishes the loading remains so, I doesnt mark errors or anything, I get the cursor on the black screen, the HDD LED turns off and then it remains just like that, I left it up to 1 full hour and from there nothing happens, also tried the ubuntu 9.04 and it is exactly the same, after loadint everything ok, it reaches a point where the screen goes black with a cursor and the HDD LED goes out , the cursor keeps going and it gets stuck.i readed a few time ago that this happens because my video card (which was integrated in the mb) did not support these versions of linux, then i bought an Nvidia GeForce FX 5200LE 128mb card and same thing happened, a couple of months ago i was using a P4GEMX ASUS motherboard with 760 RAM and HDD 160 gb IDE drive. I gave up and leave it for peace.
Today I use an D865GBF Intel motherboard with 1GB of RAM, same video card Nvidia Geforce FX 5200LE and passes the same thing, also tried to install Windows 7 and reaches the point where it shows the wallpaper just before the installation options but nothing happens and it stays right there .. the pointer disappears, I gets stuck in the wallpaper and yet again...the HDD LED goes out, I am very confused, I changed every piece of the pc, new motherboard, new rams and nothing, the only thing that I am still using of the old pc is the hard drive, also tried another HDD, one of 60gb GHola que tal, very good afternoon to all, is the first time I write in the forum and my problem is this:

View 9 Replies View RelatedI have been running tomcat as a web server for quite a while. One particular application requires OpenOffice to be up a server for document conversion. Under Fedora 14 (and NOT before), I had to add Xvfb to the mix so OpenOffice could run properly headless. I have a script to start/stop/restart tomcat (S99tomcat) which has been working flawlessly until I did the most recent updates to Fedora. The script still works fine (S99tomcat start) at boot time. However when I invoke stop and then start it due to an application change (or just restart) - openoffice fails to come up whining about xrand
Here is the line I use to bring up OpenOffice
/usr/lib64/openoffice.org3/program/soffice -nologo -headless -accept=socket,host=localhost,port=9999,tcpNoDelay= 1;urp;StarOffice.ServiceManager
It took a lot of research to get the above right (open office parameters are sensitive to order on the command line and quotes need to be put around the parameters as there is a semicolon embedde in the accept parameters.
Anyway - here is the new error
Xlib: extension "RANDR" missing on display ":1.0".

If I reboot the machine this same command set will run fine. This just happened when I applied the newest patches for all my software (normally I do this weekly).
Why many Linux distros are trying to use always the latest versions of the libraries and don't save the old libraries for compatibility? I mean, I can see libtiff for example, i can found a libtiff.so.5 on my /usr/lib, but doesn't store a libtiff.so.4 or 3 just for binary applications or games. For this example, I need libtiff.so.4 for uplink.
That should happen too on the old version of sims for linux, some ID games or others.What's wrong with storing old libraries? PD: Yay, my first post on 3 years!
After a few days of wrestling the xorg.conf file and the akmods/kmod apps, finally have it running properly with a dual display/one graphic card setup BUT only from init 3 and then startx. Trying with init 5 shows a segmentation fault right after recognizing the kmod driver but the sequence keeps running until it after it hits the anacron OK portion. This occurs with an NVIDIA 6800 XT which is covered by the 180.25 driver. Other forum Q&A suggests the wrong driver but NVIDIA recommends this one.

I have just installed from the Live Cd (Fedora 13). So far so good except that I have just installed the updates (which has taken some time) .
The updater screen shows a full progress bar and next to the progress bar is this text " checking for libraries currently in use" this has been at least one hour showing the same thing, it hasn't changed (PC is still running OK). Does this mean I can safely quit and the updates will be OK or should I keep waiting for a reboot screen or updates success message ? Is this normal, if so how long does it usually take to complete?
I am running Fedora 13 on a ASUS G71G Trying to install GTK+ 2.4.8; after installing all the dependencies(Pango, Glib2.0, ATK), I ran ./configure from my GTK+ directory. It configured for a while, then this happened: checking for X... no configure: error: X development libraries not found I tried linking them with PKG_CONFIG_PATH=<path to X lib directory>, but I got the same error message. How do I get GTK+ to recognize the X development libraries? Additionally, does the default build of X11 on Fedora 13 contain the appropriate libraries? Ive included the GTK+ configure scripts as an attachment.

I've gotten the OS up, network works, and I'm using it now. So I'm trying to get a few plugins and applications and I'm having some trouble. Main two I'm working on right now are Adobe Flash Player and Wine. I downloaded and installed Adobe Flash Player, but it didn't register that I had it on Firefox.
I took my laptop to best buy, and after about a half an hour, they said I was missing these libraries/plugins:
nspluginwrapper.i386
nspluginwrapper.x86_64
pulseaudio-libs.i386
alsa-plugins-pulseaudio.i386
libcurl.i386
They said they could do it for $100, so I'm trying to do it myself.
I found and tried to install the first one (RPM file), and it said it was incompatible.
I am relatively new to fedora. We just install a 64 bit server with FC11. Everything seems to work fine until we start to compile and link some of our existing applications that use statically linked libraries such as libm.a. We are using GCC version 4.4.1 20090725.
I search online and there are a few people reporting similar issues. There are no resolution on those questions. And I can't seem to find any repositories that have those libraries. Would appreciate if anyone can direct me to the right place. This is fairly urgent as it is holdiing up the deployment of the system.

I am a Fedora neophyte, upgrading a web server from Fedoras core 5 to Fedora 13. I finally got Apache and perl up and running, but my Perl scripts don't run because of the lack of Perl libraries.I have been able to use yum install thus far to get what I need which is a terrific tool when it works.

OpenCV doesn't work. I wonder why would anyone create a RPM package and not bother to check whether it actually works? Do they get paid per package at Red Hat? The problem seems to be in cap_ffmpeg.cpp. Somehow, OpenCV cannot resolve the ffmpeg CODEC libraries, but the annoying part is that it compiles and installs error free - it just doesn't work. Without any error messages, it is really hard to figure out what is wrong.
