Hello,

I did an upgrade using:

http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Upgrading_Fedora_using_yum#Fedora_17_-.3E_Fedora_18

and it was generally smooth and successful, which generally made me
ecstatic, until the two issues (from what I can tell up to now) came up:


1. Sound is gone. I have looked around all over, but am
unable to figure out what the problem is.

Have you checked to see if the pulseaudio daemon is running? It's
possible your desktop environment isn't starting it as part of the
session startup.

I don't quite know how to check this, (sorry!) but when I do this:

$ pulseaudio
E: [pulseaudio] pid.c: Daemon already running.
E: [pulseaudio] main.c: pa_pid_file_create() failed.

which tells me it is running, right?

Yes, it's running. Ok.

Anything else I should check?

Check your volume controls and see if you have them muted. I'm not sure
which desktop you're running, but with XFCE, I can left-click the
speaker icon in the upper right to bring up the mixer.

Also useful, install pavucontrol, run it and check what it says. If you
install it, it'll be under

	Applications->Multimedia->PulseAudio Volume Control

(at least it is under XFCE and older versions of Gnome).

2. SELinux: My SELinux claims it is disabled. Here is what happens when
I try to change it:

$sudo setenforce 1
[sudo] password for:
setenforce: SELinux is disabled

Check the /etc/selinux/config file and see if you have it disabled
there.

Yes, I found this online immediately after sending e-mail and got this
working upon reboot....Thanks for this also!!

No problem. Glad you got it sorted out.
