Re: FC14 Live CD and wireless connection to the internet

[Joshua Andrews]

If your Dellhas a Broadcom  hybrid bcm43xx you might find the modules package 
at rpmfusion.
kmod-wl-2.6.35.6-45.fc14.x86_64-5.60.48.36-2.fc14.1.x86_64.rpm 
broadcom-wl-5.60.48.36-1.fc13.noarch.rpm

They are not open source -- they work for me.

Hello,

  Neither Fedore-14-x86_64-Live-Desktop.iso nor
  Fedora-14-x86_64-Live-KDE.iso on a laptop seemed to detect 
  the wireless network.  The laptop has Dell Wireless 1510
  Wireless-N WLAN Mini-Card and refs [1, 2] seem to indicate 
  that necessary drivers/software are in Fedora by default 
  since late 2008, with the latest update being in 
  December 2010.  My windows laptop lists my home network 
  as "WPA".  What needs to be done to get on the internet 
  from either live CD?

  Thanks,

The Live distros have only a limited set of software. Presumably Perl is
on the KDE version because it's needed for something, and it's not
needed on the Gnome one. Just run "yum install perl".

[Also, it's not FC14 but F14. The Fedora distros haven't been "FC" for
several years now (though the packages still have fc in their names for
backwards compatibility reasons).]

HELP! Can't compile a program or an RPM due to a missing .pc file

[John Aldrich]

I'm trying to build/compile a new RPM of the latest and greatest PAN 
newsreader, but I can't even get the tarball to compile because it's 
complaining about a missing gmime. Now I've *got* gmime installed and it's 
newer than the minimum version, but the gmime.pc file is missing and I don't 
know enough to create it.

How do I fix this problem???

Thanks!

You mean to flash the firmware, right? The driver usually loads the 
firmware from
/lib/firmware/iwlwifi-.1.ucode  and
/lib/firmware/iwlwifi-.2.ucode
and the driver loads that firmware into the wifi card.

Downloading the correct firmware itself might require that you visit the 
intel web site and search for it there.
There are some old emails in various mailing lists and forums

Since you are not making any changes to the Fedora partition if the
two drives are identical in size, I would just clone the old drive to
the new one with something like dd or ddrescue. Then you are free to
delete the old Fedora partition to make space for Windows.

What is the latest date firmware listed?

I think you may have to downgrade to a slightly older firmware.

Thanks, the output is below, seems to be rev 09.

I think people got "Intel Corporation Centrino Advanced-N 6200" to work on
and older Fedora kernel,
but from google search don't know if anyone has got it to work on latest

Actually, in his case it wouldn't have mattered what distro he was
using.  He just waited way too long to upgrade.  It would have been like
going from RHELv3 to RHELv6 and he would have run into the same issues. 
I also have very little (read "no") sympathy for someone that sees a
message saying their /boot is too small and then proceeds to ignore it.

Is there a firmware update for your machine/wireless card? Seems to
suggest that the EEPROM is too old..?

Fedora Core 14 wireless issue with Intel Centrino Advanced-N 6200)

[Sebastian]

Hi,

I'm running 2.6.35.11-83.fc14.x86_64 on a Precision M6500 and have a
wireless issue.
My wireless device is a Intel Centrino Advanced-N 6200.

Here is the output of dmesg.

If you had bothered to do your homework, you would have known that there 
have been so many changes since F8 that upgrading that far is almost 
guaranteed to fail.  Your best bet, once you've let your system get so 
hopelessly out of date is to back up what you need, nuke your old 
system, install from scratch and restore your data.  If you're going to 
use a rapidly-changing distro like Fedora you need to keep it up to date 
if you don't want to suffer the consequences of being several years 
behind the curve.

Rawhide is discussed on the Fedora Test list. The Users list is for the
current and previous stable version (F13 and F14 at the moment).

I'm curious if there has been any update on this issue.  I'm seeing the exact
same behavior on a new install and it's preventing me from getting SSL
configured.  I can't get to that configuration tab without getting the Java 
NPE and the login prompt.  Re-logging in doesn't help, and it matters not
whether I use directory manager or admin.

I'm on slightly newer versions:
389-ds-console-1.2.3-1.el5
389-ds-base-devel-1.2.8-0.2.a2.el5
389-ds-1.2.1-1.el5
389-adminutil-1.1.13-1.el5
389-admin-1.1.14-1.el5
389-admin-console-1.1.5-1.el5
389-dsgw-1.1.6-1.el5
389-admin-console-doc-1.1.5-1.el5
389-adminutil-devel-1.1.13-1.el5
389-console-1.1.4-1.el5
389-ds-base-1.2.8-0.2.a2.el5

Has anyone found a workaround?

Thank you.

Make sure package ABRT is installed.

Run your program from menu System-Preferences-Desktop Effects or from xterm.
This should produce a dump (backtrace) that will be filed automatically, or if
not then you can extract it manually from ABRT with copy/paste (look for
backtrace, in particular):

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/

There are already desktop-effects related bugs (you can browse them by key word
desktop-effects, if you want to get familiar with how to file a bug, etc).

Please attach that desktop-effects.out file to the assigned Bug Report #  as
well - it may help.

Are you trying to install from a LiveCD? You must use the actual

Re: Can not open Desktop effects on FC14

[Yunchi Wang]

Thanks for helping me. But after I inupt command "strace -o
desktop-effects.out desktop-effects", the output is:
Gdk-ERROR **: The program 'desktop-effects' received an X Window System
error.
This probably reflects a bug in the program.
The error was 'BadWindow (invalid Window parameter)'.
  (Details: serial 141 error_code 3 request_code 138 minor_code 4)
  (Note to programmers: normally, X errors are reported asynchronously;
   that is, you will receive the error a while after causing it.
   To debug your program, run it with the --sync command line
   option to change this behavior. You can then get a meaningful
   backtrace from your debugger if you break on the gdk_x_error() function.)
aborting...
Does it mean that my X Window System is down? How can I repair it?

Jorgen,

what the hell is it they are smoking there ... In Tokyo ?
I would like to try some of that stuff too ...

I guess there is a global revolution, new flower generation, verbotten
substances, and a lot of excitement in the air ...
But I think sys admins, rational people I am told, should stay out of that ...

Because you know about this Fedora users list, I ask you to please watch it.
We learn something here, every day. I can not guarantee, but after 6 months or
so you will be a better person ...

In the meantime, relax and have some fun (forget GUIs ...) :-)

I think you should know more about the OS you are dealing with.
Fedora is a fast moving development distro, with frequent releases ...
That would tell you your planned behaviour is "risque".
And so you would not escape the wrath of Gods !

I think you are joking ...
Every sysadmin is expected to know that first (the GUI is an extra pleasure,
if any according to some).

Yes, Sir.

Re: fc8 upgrade

[Michael Schwendt]

Just a few random comments. Dunno about preupgrade, and Fedora 8 is ancient
and unlikely to be tested for system upgrades.

Then make /home and e.g. /usr/local a separate mount. You can tell the
installer about what to mount where and whether to format the mounted
filesystems.

If you prefer using ifconfig, feel free to use it, but be aware of services
like NetworkManager, which you may need to disable first (or tell them to
not control the network interfaces you want to manage yourself). This may
include stopping NetworkManager completely and enabling the good old "network"
service script.

With "Administration/Services", do you refer to the GNOME menu
"System > Administration > Services"?

If so, did your install add the following package?

$ rpm -q system-config-services
system-config-services-0.99.47-1.fc14.noarch

Mine did.

One usual check would have been to check what it was listening on.

fc8 upgrade

[Jorgen Lundman]

Hello list,

Senior unix admin, but relatively fresh Linux admin. I run a fc8 box only for 
cross-compiling, as so many toolchains come pre-compiled for it.

However, today I found the need to finally upgrade. This is an account of what 
I 
went through, and not just meant as a bitch session.

I do not care about the OS, but it would be easier if all my toolchain installs 
and home directory contents remained.

I have a tiny /boot and the rest on a lv / system, setup by a colleague. This 
all runs on xen, but that is not really part of this email.

First I tried to use preupgrade, and I went through all the yum tasks to ensure 
I have the latest version of it and so on.

Then I ran preupgrade, I went straight for fc14. I was told that my /boot was 
too small. Of course it is! Still, it did say something about downloading it 
after reboot. Plus one for fc there.

Rebooting and it gives some obscure error about not finding previous system. 
Eh? 
Googling and crap, I finally find out how to get at the anaconda logs (it could 
have been mentioned by anaconda i think, instead of just 'error, click here to 
reboot')

In the end it said something about fc8 can not be upgraded. I still do not 
really know why, but google suggests I can not skip versions, I need to go to 9 
first.  preupgraded only lists 10 to 14. I try 10 anyway.

No difference at all. Bugger.

Right, so I download the fc14 ISO and try to do a install over the old OS, 
hoping to keep data. The installer does have an option to keep things, the 
second to last option, before custom.

It just notifies me that there are no places to install to, sorry.

I use custom, which at least gives me some clues. Apparently I can not install 
to a ext3 filesystem. This seems a really bad decision by someone. Essentially, 
it is just untaring files on an existing fs. To force a certain version seems 
really backwards.

I google for how to convert ext3 to ext4, and go through that. 2 hours later I 
am ready to try again.

I return back to the installer, the 4th option still does not work, so i go 
through custom. I manage to convince it to use my / and /boot. It installs, I 
reboot. No warnings about losing data, so I feel confident here.

Upon reboot it has no settings for network, ssh etc. So I go through the GUI to 
set network (I guess I am supposed to use GUI, even though I prefer to reach 
for 
ifconfig).

I look for a way to start SSH, and there do not appear to be any. Google said 
to 
use Administration/Services. But that does not exists. Huh, I actually have to 
start a shell to run /sbin/services sshd start. Minus one there.

Only to find that port 22 does not answer. I go through the usual checks to 
make 
sure it is running, and connects locally. I start the firewall GUI to confirm 
that port 22 is open, I even try without firewall.  Still, no connection.

How strange. there is a cryptic message about iptables? I don't have services 
so 
I can not check using the GUI, so again I am forced to use shell to disable it. 
Finally I can login. minus one again.

Only to find everything has been wiped. Boo.

It was a major hassle for me, I feel sorry for fresh people trying fc14 for the 
first time. I feel there is room to make some improvements.

Anyway, I will zfs rollback to my fc8 and install something else.

good luck,

I apologize not having read documentation in advance


Thanks to Craig & Daniel for help
