FC4 Problems thread: Post your problems here

i am sure a thread like http://www.linuxquestions.org/questi...hreadid=311220
should be set up for FC4

(anyway i am still leeching off Bittorrent)

That was quick don't you think?

how about multimedia on FC4? and update manager?

I was trying to upgrade from Core 3 to Core 4, it blew up on me. VSFTPD error and GNOME failed to load up as default. Right now I'm doing a fresh installation. Fortunately, I have a ghosted Red Hat 9 drive. By the way, I have doing the upgrade since Red Hat 9, FC2 to FC3 via ftp. It's a good idea to do a fresh installation anyway.

Dang,,I got a CRC error -system halted error message when I tried to boot Disc 1 from CD.....Whats the best way to burn it to a CD or is the d/l corrupt?

Do you have a dvd drive? I just download the DVD ISO via BT, then burnt it in Nero.

No just a cd burner......I did check the checksum and it looks fine....

there should be an option to test the install media before doing the actual install."media check" or "media test" or something like that.if it's not listed under the f-keys advanced options,just abort the install before it dies and run the test from the menu that comes up.

I REALLY need to get my multimedia stuff back. With FC3 I used to apt-get everything I needed, I don't see an apt with FC4 anywhere, this sucks. I need MP3 support, totem-xine, ogle and mplayer, each of which were available in FC3 with apt.

Also, ZSNES sounds very staticy. That program is mandatory to work fine for me to continue using Fedora.

FC4 refuses to install Grub right.

do you also check the written data checksum?

if you burn it at 52x...i am pretty sure there is problem...

Hi All,

Does anyone else have this problem. I am using a Creative Audigy 2 soundcard but I can't get it to work in FC4. Anyone have any ideas how to get this to work?

Gordy

Define "can't get it to work." No sound output at all? Did it detect your card at least? Etc...

I get a Kernel Panic when I try to install. Or mediacheck or whatever for that matter.
