A word to the wise regarding failed fedup upgrades
Hi all, Just a quick piece of advice. If you try to fedup and the fedup doesn't work (completed but kernel panic on boot) don't try to 'yum erase' the duplicate RPM's. I goes through the uninstall process and removes all the GLIBC files and leaves you with a totally stuiffed server -- users mailing list users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?

Configuring tor in f20
Hi out there, I'm trying to torify Mozilla Firefox (I know that there's the modified version of Firefox made by them; but I like to use the official release of Firefox, and I don't to deal with update out of the updates provide by fedora). I installed privoxy, and it works, firefox access all the web pages through the proxy; so I setup tor using vidalia, I introduce the proxy address and then I check it out if firefox is torify using this page: https://check.torproject.org/ and it says Sorry. You are not using Tor..

Where does FC20 NM store wifi config files?
Hi All, thanks for any tips or directory pathname where these config files are stored. Also, I read a web page: http://news.softpedia.com/news/All-Linux-Distributions-Store-Wi-Fi-Passwords-in-Plain-Text-If-You-Don-t-Use-Encryption-412387.shtml That the wifi passwords are not stored by NM in encrypted form.

If you have missing dependencies for that, contact me in private, I can provide specific files for x86_64. That is assuming you can't fetch rpms and extract the files manually.
