You should be able to use /etc/dhcp/dhclient-wlan0.conf .

F16 on Lenovo x120e - cannot resume out of suspend mode

2012-10-13 Thread Robert Moskowitz
This started last friday.  Basically if I suspend the system comes up 
but no video and no keyboard response.  Power switch off does not seem 
to work, I have to pull AC and battery and I hear the drive stop.


This started when I had some runaway tasks that were eating up all my 
CPU (only single core model) so I was switching to terminal 2 
, running top, figuring out what might be going crazy, 
switching back to terminal 1 and stopping programs. After about 5 of 
these switchs, no switching back to terminal 1 and reboot and poweroff 
did not do anything (actually no keyboard response).  I ended up pulling 
the battery.  Since then suspend has stopped working right; don't know 
if they are related.


This evening, I powered up, applied all updates, powered down, powered 
up, powered down, powered up, THEN tried suspend and no dice still.


I WAS traveling and thursday, the notebook was in my backback on a 9 
hour drive, but not particularly bounced around.  It came out of suspend 
just fine friday morning.  Or so it seemed.


Advice for trouble shooting?  I really don't want to reinstall Fedora, I 
was hoping to wait until F18 for the next OS install.

Would appreciate some examples.


It looks like you have to log in to yousendit to get access to your 
file.  That would indicate that it is not scriptable with anything 
like wget.  You would have to get the login page and then provide the 
required credentials.  There is almost always a Captcha that you have 
to read and decode put there just to prevent the kind of thing you 
want to do.



Actually, no. I am not trying to access my own files that are UPLOADED
to yousendit.com
I am trying to download files that another user uplpoaded and made available
to a distribution list.
Usually, I have to click on each link and download it - no login required.
But in some of the email notifications I get from yousendit.com, the
message contains many files to download, and I am trying to avoid having
to click on each and every one, to download them.

Each file link, when you cright-click it, takes you to the full link of 
the file,

and you can then use that link as an arg to wget.

Good!  As you say, that's one less possible issue.  I hadn't known that 
(you may have mentioned it before, but if so, I'd forgotten.)  Depending 
on what this test shows, you might want to get a PS2/USB adapter and see 
if it makes any difference.  Then, if it's the port that's unreliable, 
you don't need to buy a new keyboard.

An excellent idea.  Then, once you find that the new machine works 
fine[1] you can swap keyboards and see if the issue follows the 
keyboard.  Just remember, however, if one of them's PS2 and the other's 
USB, that in itself might be significant.


[1]F17 would never have gotten out of beta with such a big show-stopper bug.

For the record, with the exception of the keyboard, the F17 install was 
one of the easiest "moving to the new Fedoras" I've had (Xfce)

Re: Fedora 17, hostapd and avoiding DHCPDISCOVER requests

2012-10-13 Thread Rami Rosen
Hi,
You can set  non dhcp Network Manager on a specified interface thus:
Right click on the network manager icon and click on edit
connections.
Navigate to "wireless" tab (in your case).
Go to "Edit" -> IPV4 setting
Set "Method" to Manual and assign a static IP.
Also to avoid IPV6 DHCP DISCOVER request,
You can go to  "Edit" -> IPV4 setting, and select link local
address or select "Manual" and assign a static IP address.


regards,
Rami Rosen

I don't know if NetworkManager can ever be taught to be polite.
Every time I try to use NM to see if it has gotten better,
I run into something like this that it screws up, and I do
a "yum erase NetworkManager" and everything works perfectly
again.

I run hostapd on my machine at work, and NM insisted on
butting in and screwing things up, so I removed it there
and have had no problems with it since.

Fedora 17, hostapd and avoiding DHCPDISCOVER requests

2012-10-13 Thread Kevin Wilson
Hi,
I am running hostapd on top of backfire (hostapd) on WRT54GL LinkSys device
with b43 driver.

I have very simple, minimalistic hostapd configuration.
Now , I run on the LinkSys device:
hostapd /etc/hostapd.conf

and it starts OK.

On a nearby Fedora 17 Linux machine I insert wifi USB card, and the
Network Manager identifies the BSS (of the hostaod on the LinkSys device).

When I try to connect with Network Manager to the LinkSys device I see
, in the kernel log of the Linux machine, these messages:
...
...
 dhclient[2872]: DHCPDISCOVER on wlan0 to 255.255.255.255 port 67
interval 9 (xid=0x9dd84e4)
 dhclient[2872]: DHCPDISCOVER on wlan0 to 255.255.255.255 port 67
interval 8 (xid=0x9dd84e4)
 NetworkManager[540]:  (wlan0): DHCPv4 request timed out.
 NetworkManager[540]:  (wlan0): canceled DHCP transaction, DHCP
client pid 2872
...
...

Over and over again.

Now what I understand is that since there is no DHCP server on the
LinkSys device, the DHCP requests the the network manager sends
are not replied.

My question is:
 Is there a way to tell the Network Manager **not** to send DHCP
requests in such a case
 (when connecting to the AP) ?

Does sound suspiciously like a broken keyboard.

Dual Boot Fedora 17 - openSUSE 12.2

2012-10-13 Thread Andi Sugandi
Hi list mates,

Using GRUB2 of openSUSE 12.2 in dual booting with Fedora 17 is not
problem as it is automatically listed by openSUSE 12.2 installer when
Fedora 17 system is installed first (AND in single "/" partition) ,
but there is an issue when it is opposite, using GRUB2 of Fedora 17.
(AND with separates partitions -- /boot = hda2, & /boot/efi = hda1)

parted -l:
http://paste.kde.org/567956/raw/

How to solve this issue? When dual booting using GRUB2 of Fedora 17
with seperate "/boot" (+ /boot/efi) partition?

Thanks in advance.

Best regards,
