Kernel tainted

2012-02-02 Thread Juan Orti Alcaine
Hello, I see that my kernel is tainted but I don't know which module to blame. The taint code is 4096, so it must be a out-of-tree module. I have listed all modules, and all seem to be in-tree, I have used this command: # lsmod | awk {'print $1'} | xargs modinfo | grep intree and all modules have

Choice of repository error I think

I recently installed F16. I had the fedora-update.repo repository enabled when I ran yum. Should fedora-updates.repo be enabled? Yum installed firefox-10.0-1.fc16.x86_64 and xulrunner-10.0-1.fc16.x86_64. This combination does not appear to work. I do not know how to get back to where I was bef

Hello Fedora fans! Freshly installed Fedora 16 for 32 bit (i686) from DVD on a Pentium 4 with 1 GB RAM. Why does Fedora 16 installs a PAE kernel by default? Previous versions of Fedora (on that machine) did not install the PAE kernel but the regular one. I've seen people on the web asking
