Boot into single user mode
Dear All, I lost root password for one of my box running Fedora 9. I am not sure if its one of the clever users who changed the password since I had not locked it down. I am now trying to boot into single user mode in order to reset the password. However, at the Fedora Splash screen the system does not respond to any key "a" for me to boot into run level 1. Is it a configuration that has been tempered with?

David I don't know if it's around for the latest release, but some time ago there was a delta update system available. Basically, many of the updates only require small changes from the previously installed version, so the delta update would only update the bits that changed, rather than replace the entire old package with an entirely new package. Someone might say if you can still do this. It would help, enormously, with keeping a system up to date over dialup. -- [...@localhost ~]$ uname -r 2.6.27.15-78.2.23.fc9.i686 Don't send private replies to my address, the mailbox is ignored.

And we'll have this discussion till the cows come home dripping. :) But I don't run amanda from /usr, never have, nor do I run it as root, in fact it detects that its running as root and bawls you out as it exits. And building an rpm of amanda violates many of amanda most basic security tenets, most basic is that of not using any more permissions than is absolutely required. And rpm built and installed by a common user cannot get the suid's a couple pieces of it needs, which is why you build it as an unprivileged user so all the rights are set, but do the actual install as root so the suid's can be set. The last I knew, rpm is as yet incapable of doing all this when rpm is also running unprivileged. >Well written software would search /usr/local/lib before /usr/lib if it >were built with --prefix=/usr/local (which should be the default). > > >> Now, if someone could tell me how to make it search /usr/local/* first, >> I'd be glad to follow those guidelines.

I think this also depends on the output of ldconfig. One used to be able to fine tune the order of its database, but somebody got the 10 kilowatt idea to get rid of an ld.so.conf file the user could control the order of the processing with and put individual files in a subdir. And guess what, the last time I looked at its output, it alphabetizes the subdir contents before it processes them. So you can't put /usr/local/lib at the top of the list anymore. I should have filed a bz on that long ago. I suppose a bit of renaming might suffice to set the processing order, but about the time I'd get that sorted its time to update. Or switch distro's. This isn't your fault of course, but sometimes I am led to wonder just what were they smoking when they change something like that just because they can. Now, I finally backtraced the dependency that pulls in strigi-devel, and then yum needs a bug filed on it, it claims that the -devel package needs the parent package which is not available, so it upchucks and stops. Funny thing though, the parent package is also shown as already installed. Who is at fault in this I haven't the foggiest, but it sure is a showstopper. Oh well, tomorrow is another day. Mail is flowing, and web browsing almost works. Maybe if i reboot to test the grub-install, the newer radeonhd drivers I just installed will fix that.

Building .ko from from SRPM, what reduces .ko file size between 'make' and RPM?
Hello. I'm attempting a newbie skill building exercise rather than
solving a particular problem, but I'm missing something obvious.
Searching hasnt helped me on this specific point.
I imagine that 'make' of the entire kernel source RPM (at the exact
version as my Fedora 9 precompiled kernels) should closely duplicate
my precompiled kernel modules, for example my ALSA driver module
snd-intel8x0.ko
However as shown by 'ls' at the last paragraph of this email, I notice
that the snd-intel8x0.ko I build using 'make' is 230265 bytes but the
precompiled operational one is *much* smaller at 39592 bytes.
I am afraid to proceed to 'make install' until these files look
similar/identical.
Also I notice that if I build the kernel.rpm and then 'rpm -qp --dump'
it, then these file sizes *are* identical.
So I am wondering what affects the size of the .ko file between 'make'
and the built RPM. As a newbie in this area I am far from
comprehending the entire kernel.spec or Makefiles system. So it would
greatly assist me if someone could give me a pointer what to look at
next.
Please note that my aim is not to build an rpm. My aim is to become
knowledgable enough extract a kernel source tree from a srpm, to be
able to 'make' it, and ultimately to be able to 'make' subsections of
it, in particular make and install an individual module, without
building an rpm. I understand the consequences for my rpm database.
Using diff on the output from 'modinfo' on each file gives only these
differences

< vermagic: 2.6.25 SMP mod_unload 686 4KSTACKS
> vermagic: 2.6.25-14.fc9.i686 SMP mod_unload 686 4KSTACKS
I'm using the reference
http://www.tldp.org/LDP/lkmpg/2.6/html/x380.html ("Linux Kernel Module
Programming Guide: Building modules for a precompiled kernel").
My complete approach is reproduced below. Probably you can skip the
first 3 paragraphs that just show my rpmbuild targets. ~/rpmbuild is a
symlink due to insufficient free space on my home drive.
By the way, I live in a remote location with poor quality dialup
internet so sadly I cannot possibly keep my installation at the latest
update of all packages between DVD releases.
I'll be really grateful for any tips on the above, thanks. David

Of course the > rpms get overwritten and the system eventually goes tits up. your box dude - neither /usr/lib nor /usr/local/lib are ever 'pathed' environmental variables but rather the compiled software should know where to look. Obviously you are referring to something specific when talking about versions 1.2.4 and 2.2.8 and my guess is that you are referring to amanda which really makes no sense to build/install with --prefix=/usr at all. In fact, you should just be building rpms and not compiling from source but that's a discussion that we have had before. Well written software would search /usr/local/lib before /usr/lib if it were built with --prefix=/usr/local (which should be the default). > Now, if someone could tell me how to make it search /usr/local/* first, I'd > be > glad to follow those guidelines.

I sort of thought that this was the default. try typing 'echo $PATH' and someone correct me if I'm wrong but I gathered that the order presented from that command is also the order that the commands are parsed.

Apparently that is just one of the gotcha's of running a very high priced (nearly 300 bucks bare) ASUS motherboard. It does damned little as you would expect it to do. If I had known that ASUS was on the ropes, and that their support sucked dead toads through soda straws, I wouldn't have touched it with your credit card let alone mine. >It shouldn't hurt I would think if you did grub-install to both /dev/sda >and /dev/sdb.

The problem with that is that the fglrx is married to the kernel version. radeonhd at least, is only married to the x server version, and that is what I broke when I built the git pull of it. Besides that, I have yet to get fps out of fglrx that I get from radeonhd. That is one of the first things I had yumex update, but I haven't rebooted to try it yet. I'm just happier than a pig in it that the new kmail picked right up where the old one left off, it all works and I haven't touched a thing yet.

Re: Account, password problem with sqlplus in Oracle 10g(10201_companion_linux32)
I've installed Oracle 10g but not on Fedora 10. I don't think it is supported on the Oracle Universal Installer. I've done it on CentOS 5, following the directions provided on the Oracle website for Linux installations. Oracle only supports a limited Linux installation set. You need to follow their procedure to the letter...in fact to the nybble...and that procedure is really specific and with many steps. Go to the Oracle website and do it their way...it will work. It will take you a couple days to get it done right, don't expect a miracle 10-minute install. Do the installation on a machine you can spare as a dedicated database server and don't use it for anything else but an Oracle database server. The name of the zip file you mention doesn't seem right. That seems like an add on of some sort to 10g Release 2.

The more actions you do on your own, and the fewer questions you answer, the harder it is for us..the people taking time out of our day..to help you unbreak your system. -jef -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@redhat.com To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines

I'm going to give you a second to think about the implications of that action, and how far reaching that action could have been. What else did that remove. We can't tell you. And it certainly explains your problem. Now you need to go check your yum transaction log and see exactly all the packages you removed. Assuming you did this recently enough there should be a record of all the packages removed in /var/log/yum.log -jef -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@redhat.com To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines

The network problem has been resolved. Now networking works but after
having to reboot because the keyboard locked up, now F10 refuses to boot
to a graphic display. I can get to a shell and install updates via yum.

What is weird is that sometimes F10 works although most of the time it doesn't. Yesterday I had been able to boot the live CD version but today it cannot find the root file system. This all started with installing F10 and then not being able to connect to a wired ethernet port using a static IP. Everything worked fine in F10. Now the networking works but I get no display.

I installed F10 64-bit from the DVD iso on a 64-bit Intel 4-cpu

reason turned off by default. Once I turned it on via services,
networking worked fine (using a static IP). (There is an annoying bug in
the F10 gui for networking - the net mask gets changed to the gateway ip
which of course screws up networking - this appears to be fixed once you
upgrade the system but I had to manually fix the eth0 script to get the
netmask to the correct value.)
Now I've installed the same DVD iso on a dual 64-bit AMD Opteron system
that previously had run F8 (networking worked fine on network "A"). I've
made sure network is on. I've manually configured the eth0 script to
avoid the buggy network gui netmask problem. I can ping the gateway on
network "A". For some reason I cannot ping the DNS on this network. I
can connect to my home computer using its IP address using ssh. But I
cannot view web pages using the URL's. I switched to a different
ethernet port on a "different" network "B" with different fixed IP and
DNS that I know works (I use it for my F8 laptop every day) and although
I can ping the gateway and DNS, I still cannot view web pages. I just
now hooked my Ubuntu 8.10 laptop to network "A" and it connects
flawlessly and I can view web pages so I know the port works - both
ports on networks "A" and "B" work fine. But I cannot get the F10 AMD
computer to connect to either network and view web pages (I do as I said
get some connection using IP addresses and ssh).
Any ideas on what is wrong? This is very frustrating. If I could get a
network connection I could upgrade the computer but I can't get to
square one.
P.S. I've looked at the eth0 script, the resolv.conf and hosts files and
everything looks fine. I've tried turning different things on and off
(like IPv6 and peer) but nothing makes a difference. I'm using DNS1,
DNS2, and DNS3 in the eth0 script and these appear appropriately in the
resolv.conf file.
I have never had this much trouble getting a wired network connection -
it almost always works by default.

My rule for this issue is to remove network manager.
On two desktop computers with static IP addresses was.
-install F10 from DVD.
-apply all the updates.
-install yumex. {I like it better than packagekit}
-install system-config-network
-turn off networkmanager
-remove networkmanager
-run system-config-network
-enter in settings
-restart networking
-ensure networking is running properly
-test by rebooting.
As others have suggested, check /etc/sysconfig/network*
as well as /etc/resolve.conf

There should be noting specific to 32-bit or 64-bit in your .thunderbird
directory. I know, I upgraded an FC6.i386 system to F9.x86_64 and my
Thunderbird just plain continued to work.

just moving
.thunderbird/[salt].default/Mail/*
.thunderbird/[salt].default/abook.mab
You could just move the entire .thunderbird/[salt].default directory
lock stock and barrel (AFAIK). Make sure you edit the
.thunderbird/profiles.ini file to properly reflect your default profile.
What file(s) store the email account information?
They are all buried down in the profile directory structure.
Or, to make a long story short, can I just tar up all of .thunderbird
and not worry about conflicts on the 32-bit system?
That's my thought. Good luck!

I will second this. And if your .thunderbird directory is in the same
/home/{user}/.thunderbird you will not have to change anything.
I have done two upgrades and all I did was copy the data and open TB.
It isn't that much different than upgrading from one version of TB to a
different one from my experience.

Re: Fedora 10 64-bit & Wired Network Problems - New Problem
I had to reboot the system (after updating) - the USB wireless keyboard stopped working (replaced batteries - still does not work). The wireless mouse worked and I could use the cursor to start programs but could not type any input. I plugged in a wired usb keyboard and mouse. Now the system refuses to reboot into a graphical display even though inittab is at 5. I can ctrl-alt F2 into a shell and even install new packages (so the networking is still working). But X refuses to run (although I don't see any error messages even with dmesg). I checked xorg.conf and it consists of just Section Device using the vesa driver. I looked through the entire X11 log but no errors are reported - it finds the vesa driver and usable modes - yet no display. After the F10 white line thingy at the bottom goes away, the cursor just blinks in the upper left hand corner. I have to ctrl alt F2 to a shell to log in. I'm completely stumped. What else should I check? The kernel is 2.6.27.15-170.2.24.fc10.x86_64. If I type "startx" I get "No address associated with name". It says to check /usr/bin/X but this does not exist.

This is probably one of those things I don't really want to know the answer to, but it looked strange so I though I'd ask: Just updated a system, and rather than getting a new version of postfix merely because it was updated, it seemed to go through some convoluted reasoning process to give me a new version: Resolving Dependencies --> Running transaction check ... ---> Package postfix-perl-scripts.i386 2:2.5.6-1.fc10 set to be updated --> Processing Dependency: postfix = 2:2.5.6-1.fc10 for package: postfix-perl-scripts --> Running transaction check ---> Package postfix.i386 2:2.5.6-1.fc10 set to be updated --> Finished Dependency Resolution Dependencies Resolved Package ArchVersion RepositorySize Installing: postfix-perl-scripts i3862:2.5.6-1.fc10updates 60 k replacing postfix.i386 2:2.5.5-1.fc10 Updating: ...

Mount added drive -
This is an F-10 updated box to which I've added a second drive which is not mounting automatically at boot. I have to mount it after I log in. Obviously I've messed up something in configuration but I haven't been able to find it. I am not sure what ftab should look like but presently it is:.

The keyboards were configured during Fedora 10 installation and no manual configuration in Xorg or GNOME. Everything was working fine until last update. I guess the affecting updates were xorg-x11-server-Xorg-1.5.3-13.fc10 or xorg-x11-server-common-1.5.3-13.fc10. Only affects the keyboard settings in the graphical mode (GNOME in my case).

Re: Skype and video[Was:Webcam recommendations?]
Hello, I had the same problem with my webcam and I resolved following this guide ( http://moinejf.free.fr/gspca_README.txt): V4L library Most applications don't know how to decode the raw frames generated by the webcams, and also, many of them do not speak the V4L2 interface. To make them work, you need the V4L application library found at: http://linuxtv.org/hg/~hgoede/v4l-dvb To generate: cd v4l2-apps/lib/libv4l/ make (and as root) make install (the installation is done under /usr/local) To use it with a mono-threaded application, do: export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/lib/ LD_PRELOAD=/usr/local/lib/libv4l/v4l1compat.so To use it with a multi-threaded application, do: export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/lib/ export LD_PRELOAD=/usr/local/lib/libv4l/v4l1compat.so For more information, look at: http://hansdegoede.livejournal.com/3636.html http://linuxtv.org/v4lwiki/index.php/Libv4l_Progress Cheers, Fab 2009/2/24 Paolo Galtieri > I ran the same version of skype on my laptop running F10 and my webcam and > sound worked fine.

F10: sound vanishing after some time (Dell E6500)
Hello there, not sure it is pulseaudio to blame yet (and again), maybe simply an Alsa bug or incompatibility. I've recently installed Fedora 10 on a brand new Dell Latitude E6500 laptop. Few hours after the system has booted (an unpredictable amount of time) sounds are simply not playing anymore - tried w/ apps, aplay, mplayer. Did somebody experience the same? Or any clue where to investigate or find a fix? I'm running GNOME and default sound settings (pulseaudio, alsa), here are some excerpts of `lspci -vvv` concerning the audio system: 00:1b.0 Audio device: Intel Corporation 82801I (ICH9 Family) HD Audio Controller (rev 03) Subsystem: Dell Device 024f Control: I/O- Mem+ BusMaster+ SpecCycle- MemWINV- VGASnoop- ParErr- Stepping- SERR+ FastB2B- DisINTx- Status: Cap+ 66MHz- UDF- FastB2B- ParErr- DEVSEL=fast >TAbort- SERR- Capabilities: [130] Root Complex Link Kernel driver in use: HDA Intel Kernel modules: snd-hda-intel And here is the output of a `grep -iE 'imklog|pulse|sound|snd|audio|alsa' /var/log/messages`, it shows several reboots across last 4 days, mostly to restore sound: Feb 22 04:50:20 localhost kernel: imklog 3.21.10, log source = /proc/kmsg started.

Such a reply is completely not helpful. It's nothing else than FUD. rpmfusion.org offers a repository, which includes mplayer. No need to hunt for missing dependencies manually. Just use the standard package management utilities that come with Fedora. And in case there is a problem with the packages in the rpmfusion.org repository, report a bug. -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@redhat.com To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines

HelixPlayer doesn't support the proprietary Real codecs, those were not part of what they opened up as Free Software. In fact, HelixPlayer hardly plays anything. :-/ Last I checked, even FLAC was not supported and that is definitely not patent-encumbered.
