This is a keyring issue, not a NM issue. There used to be a package called pam-keyring that you could install and configure so that, if the keyring and login passwords were the same, no keyring prompt would be required. In F8, that functionality was to be replaced by gnome-keyring-pam. That package is there, but it doesn't seem to work reliably yet. -- Matthew Saltzman Clemson University Math Sciences mjs AT clemson DOT edu http://www.math.clemson.edu/~mjs -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@redhat.com To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list |

Hi!
* Good news first, I was successfully able to install Fedora 8 ppc version on my PS3. There are 3 issues right now that i am facing and hope to get all of them resolved..... * 1.*** Whenever I try to shutdown or restart it comes up with the message "System halting" when shutting down and nothing happens, it displays "stand by while the system is restartin...." still nothing happens. I just get a blinking cursor. Eventually in the end I have to restart or shutdown by pressing the power on m PS3 manually. * 2.*** When I try to mount any USB external hard drive, I get a message for "Unable to mount", when i check the details it shows that there was an improper shutdown/restart. This issue could be in turn related to the above issue. Is there any way I could forcefully mount the External USB Hard drive. * 3.****Thirdly, I do not have an internet connection enabled on my PS3, hence I cannot download and install*the YUM Updates. Is there any way that I can manually download the updates and then install them on fedora 8 ppc. This is very important for me as whenever*I am trying to install any application such as VLC or any other application it gives me the following: * Error while installing VLC rpm (OR any Software for that matter) * Unable to retrieve software information * Unable to retrieve software information. This could be caused by not having a network connection available. * Cannot retrieve repository metadata (repomd.xml) for repository: fedora. Please verify its path and try again * Please remember that I do not have an internet connection enabled on my fedora 8 ppc or on PS3. * * 4.**** Last but not the least: I get a following error: * Error while opening avi/divx/xvid files through Movie Player on fedora 8 ppc * The application "Movie Player" requires the following Plugins: MPEG-1 Layer 3 (MP3) decoder XVID MPEG-4 decoder * The are no plugins for the requested functionality. Please select the full plugins list in the View menu. * An error occurred The playback of this movie requires the following decoders which are not installed: MPEG-1 Layer 3 (MP3) decoder XVID MPEG-4 decoder * I would be highly thankful if you get the above issues resolved as*they are*driving me insane...... * * If possible please mention a technical support number on which I could call to get answers to any issue. The number needs to be an international number that I could call as I will be calling from India. * * Regards Kamran Ahmed +91 9886930984 * * On 11/29/07, Jorge Boscan Etura <joretur@gmail.com> wrote: Thank you Matt, I'll give it a try On Nov 29, 2007 3:53 AM, Matthew Saltzman < mjs@clemson.edu> wrote: > > On Wed, 2007-11-28 at 17:33 -0600, Aaron Konstam wrote: > > On Wed, 2007-11-28 at 17:00 +0100, Jorge Boscan Etura wrote: > > > Hi > > > > > > How can I disable/configure nm-applet for no to ask for a pass keyring thing? > > > > > > thanks-- > > You don't say what version of NM you are using.

This doesn't seem to have anything to do with NetworkManager (the title)? If I had your problem, I would get Knoppix, or a similar Linux-on-a-CD, and run e2fsck on your partitions (particularly the one with / on it). Then I would try mounting your USB drive from Knoppix. > 3. Thirdly, I do not have an internet connection enabled on my PS3, > hence I cannot download and install the YUM Updates.

Do you mean you have another computer that is connected to the internet? -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@redhat.com To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list |

In general, NetworkManager works pretty well for m. It swaps
automagically from my wired network to my wireless network and back, I can select from the various networks available, and it handles WPA with great aplomb. BUT: I need to set up a domain search list. I have edited /etc/dhcp3/dhclient.conf accordingly, and it is completely ignored. I tried selecting "manual configuration" and entering extra domains in the search list on the "DNS" tab, but NetworkManager just sets them back to what they were before. As far as I can tell, Network Manager uses whatever the DHCP server sends - and that's it. I don't want to alter what the DHCP server sends, I want to override it locally. Anyone know how to do that?

The scripts can be called at different times during the interfaces lifecycle. Perhaps you could script it so that your domains are added AFTER the iface is configured via network manager? -Dustin -- ubuntu-users mailing list ubuntu-users@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-users |

I don't understand why "sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart" was not sufficient. But it works now.
