Re: system-config-lvm

I love Fedora, but after asking about the disappearance myself, the answer given was less than logical or satisfactory. LVM has gained some new features that system-config-lvm did not handle. Someone decided that was unacceptable and it had to be removed. The majority of applications and sys

Re: Hardware diagnostic tools? Interrupts?

The interrupt message on which the system is hanging is associated with the 3Ware controller. I did check the Kingston site for info on upgrading the SSD. Unfortunately, they only support upgrading the firmware on Windows 7. They suggest putting it on a Windows 7 box as a secondary drive, bu

Hardware diagnostic tools? Interrupts?

I just upgraded my Fedora 16 development workstation from an AMD Phenom II to an Intel i7 2600K on an Asus P8Z68-M Pro along with a Kingston SSD. Unfortunately, I ran into a bit of a snag. It hangs in the boot process with the last line being: ahci : 06:00.0: PCI INT A -> GSI 18 (level, l

Questions for new SSD OS install

I am about to upgrade the motherboard and add an SSD to my Fedora 16 system, and the options and questions are numerous. The system should boot from the SSD and access the LVM partitions on the original drive (actually a 3Ware RAID). My system has gone through multiple Fedora upgrades in the l

Dialogs now fast

I had posted several messages about the dialog creation and display being really, really slow in multiple apps. I did an yum update a couple of days ago and magically everything is fast again. Both X and Gnome packages were updated. No idea what did it, but whoever you are, you masked develo

F15 slow tooltip and dialogs

I made side reference to this issue in another post. When I upgraded from F14 to F15 the tool tips and some dialogs became very slow. If this is not the case for most people, is it possibly a side-effect of doing an upgrade vs a clean install? Most everything else is okay. Running XFCE inst

F15 and Chrome

I upgraded to F15 a couple of weeks ago. Everything is slower, but Google Chrome behaviour is driving me crazy. For example, when I bookmark a page, a little dialog pops up. The frame of the dialog will come up almost immediately, but then it takes at least 40+ seconds for the widgets to pai

"Dummy Output" sound device for new user

One user on a Fedora14 x86_64 install has sound. The Sound Preferences on the Output tab shows an "Internal Audio Analog Stereo" device. I created and switched to a new user. Sound Preferences shows only a "Dummy Output" device and does not play sound. How do I fix this? Thank you. -- use

normal yum updates, just installing the OS into a different directory, so I will probably switch the baseurl back. Thank you for any help. On 02/06/2011 04:22 AM, Frederick N. Brier wrote: I was following the directions in Chapter 18. Setting Up A Remote Diskless System <https://docs.fedoraproj
