Fonts are MUCH better. Emacs can now use non- bitmapped fonts. Here are some suggestions: 1.

So far I used yum to upgrade Fedora 1 up to F11. My yum update went wrong and my server wes forcefully rebooted in the middle so none kernel from F11 works anymore. After I booted F12 DVD - if I select "Install or Upgrade" and "Replace existing Linux System" the probem is that my original raid raids are not mounted. I can see: <6>md6: radi1: raid set md0 active with 2 out of 2 mirrors <6>md0: detected capacity change from 0 to xxxx <3>"Buffer I/O error on device md0, logical block 0" ... <3>"Buffer I/O error on device md0, logical block 9" <6>md0: detected capacity change from xxxx to 0 ... <6>md: md0 is stopped This whole raid process repeats iteslf several times and it takes about 10-15 minutes. However with "Replace existing Linux System" option, raid arrays are not mounted successfuly and I cannot install F12 over F11. But when I select rescue option from F12 DVD, the same errors are displayed but my all old arrays are eventually mounted, so I can see all the files. Also once arrays are mounted they appear working and healthy. Do you please have any hint how can I refresh or repair my md arrayrs so it does not take ages before these are mounted and at the first place they are mounted every time? Is there any safe raid command I can do in rescue mode so this is achieved and I won't loss my data? Do you think that my raid arrays created in times of Fefdora 1 can cause this problem? This situation is very painful as I killed my day today trying to fix it without luck :( Thank you very much gyus, Jaiv PS: During my initial tries I reinstalled swap (as it was encrypted on the old system and Anaconda always asked for pw which I do not have) and I did it with the command: mkswap -f -L swap /dev/VolGrolup00/LogVol00 Do you think I could have damaged my raid arrays by using "-f" option? -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

If I boot the F12 live cd, my network connection is disabled and the admins come and beat me about the head. So I think running F12 in a VM is going to be the best I can do.

The X log has a message : "Couldn't find valid PLL dividers" Good news though in other areas : --I can shell into the machine with ssh, it's not a hard crash. --If I set up the kernel with "rhgb quiet" and do not use the "nomodeset" option X starts up normally. --I no longer need an xorg.conf with "XAA" accel enabled to prevent X crashes. EXA seems to be working reliably now. (I previously reported that www.newegg.com and wiki.centos.org were crashing X with EXA enabled.) EXA seems stable with kernel modesetting though...great!

Yes, but it won't hurt much. Do a "yum install seahorse" (it will have one or two dependencies), use it to set an empty password, then "yum remove seahorse" and its dependency, and you are done. :-) > Would knetworkmanager be any help? I tried it instead of nm-applet, but somehow didn't feel stable enough. Since nm-applet was favored to knetworkmanager on the very KDE spin, I guess the latter is not quite there yet. Besides, I got used to nm-applet, and it works ok for me. > This NetworkManager password business seems completely crazy to me. The whole thing has nothing to do with NM itself. The issue is between nm- applet and default keyring (Gnome) or knetworkmanager and kde wallet (KDE). It's all about where to store the wireless keys and who can read them.

I'm writing this from memory, as I deleted seahorse already and cannot start it up. First install seahorse. Then start it. The UI is not quite intuitive, but you should basically see one line in the main part of the window representing the default keys stuff (in my case it was the only line available). Click on it, and then find something like "properties" or similar. In there you will find an option to change the password. It will open a dialog asking for the old password, and the new one (twice). Type in the old password, leave blank fields for the new one. You should get an "are you sure" type of warning, but it will accept it on if you insist :-). Close seahorse and uninstall if you wish. That should do it.
