I need help to get this formerly-stable system back. Basically X is messed up and I can't do yum updates. This is my second post on this issue. Any help would be most appreciated. Background: On Saturday, I updated my son's Fedora 10 x86_64 system to Fedora 11 using preupgrade. All seemed to go well until it tried to start X on the first boot. Upon starting X, I saw a white dash in the upper left and X never properly started. I rebooted into single user mode, set run level to 3 and booted. Now if I start X using startx, I lose my keyboard and mouse. The task bar shows a lot of applications starting. As I have no keyboard nor mouse, all I can do is hit the power button and shutdown. I have not tried ssh'ing to the box. Note that after pressing the power button, several errors were displayed including Nautilus having issues with Hal. I tried using yum to update the box hoping this might fix something, especially with the nvidia driver. However, YUM is broken. It is failing with an error about file /var/cache/yum/updates/metalink.xml missing. System is a Gateway AMD 9500 quad core Keyboard is PS/2. Mouse is USB. Display is Nvidia 8600 GT PCI card.

(Upgrade to the same version.) The installer will fix Grub as part of the install. Just to make sure you are doing what I think you are doing, let me give a quick outline. Boot off the install for CD for the version of Linux on the internal hard drive. Pick Rescue an installed system. Pick language and keyboard. Let it mount the file systems.

Xfburn is pretty stable since 0.4, there is only one issue remaining: Drag & Drop is not working with nautilus, works fine with Thunar or PCManFM.

I have not had much success using preupgrade.

When I use the Update Viewer I am presented with several categories needing updating. There is an option to review all or update all. There is no option, for example, to update only security fixes. This is what I think is an example of a hideous user experience: I click on the icon that indicates updates are available and select "Show Updates". Gee, there are only 300. So I select "Review" and am now presented with 300 packages, each with a separate checkbox PREVIOUSLY SELECTED. There is not even an option for "select all" or "deselect all". You get them all, period. There is no way to restrict the update process to only certain categories. Instead I have the delightful prospect of scrolling and clicking, scrolling and clicking, scrolling and clicking until hell freezes over or my carpal tunnel syndrome becomes so inflamed that I'm not even able to touch a keyboard or mouse for days. So, because of this incredibly retarded interface (from a usability point of view) we just have to bite the bullet and update all. Now let's see what happens. Something goes wrong. Perhaps my system becomes unstable or networking goes on vacation or my sound disappears. Wow! I only have 300 packages and all their dependencies to sort through. Guess what? It ain't gonna happen. You'll definitely get no feedback from me other than a rant that this process is so horribly borked as to preclude me from ever using this (it's not a bug it's a) feature. So here's a question to the developers of the Updater. Have any one of you ever gone through the update list and individually unchecked each of them? I recommend it highly, *especially* when there are several hundred of them pending. You may actually get a feeling for what you have inflicted on the rest of us. Here's an analogy: You go to the supermarket and take a shopping cart. Surprise! Surprise! There is already one of everything in the store in the cart all ready for you to go through checkout and buy it all OR you can spend a leisurely day going through the aisles and returning everything you don't want to its appropriate place on the shelf. I wonder when is the next time you'd go back to that store? Yeah, me neither. If Amazon's user interface worked that way they'd still be waiting for their first stooge ;D And if I ever delivered an app' like that I'd be out of work :( As was once observed, "A point in every direction is the same as no point at all". Probably not worth $0.02 but I felt compelled to share my user experience and my thoughts about it.

Unselecting all packages or installing only security updates. You can set the preferences to only install security updates automatically as well (gpk-preferences).

I just have to compile my own kernel and rework some stuff. (When I installed F10, I downgraded libdrm and some packages to get KDE running. Of course, these packages are upgraded now.
