by Aaron Gray
Hi,
I am trying to follow some instructions that say do a :-
'xzcat image.img >/dev/mmcblk0'
to a USB SD card reader. But '/dev/mmcblk0' does not exist.
I have tried usbmon0/1/2/3 but am just getting write errors.
Many thanks in advance,

list rpms question
by Ranjan Maitra
Hi,
I have a question: if I do a rpm -qa texlive\* I get the following:
texlive-ncntrsbk-svn28614.0-0.1.fc19.noarch
texlive-texconfig-svn29764.0-0.1.fc19.noarch
texlive-pdftools-bin-svn30088.0-0.1.20130608_r30832.fc19.i686
texlive-dvicopy-bin-svn30088.0-0.1.20130608_r30832.fc19.i686
texlive-filehook-svn24280.0.5d-0.1.fc19.noarch
....
And so on. My question is: how do I get the rpms names without the part
-svn...etc etc.
Why do I want this? It is because I want a list of these rpms to make
future installs easy. So, I could have a list of these rpms, put a
\ after each line, and then add yum install and then be done in one
line.
Many thanks for answering the question!
Best wishes,
Ranjan

by linuxnutster＠videotron.ca
I just installed the latest kernel, and subsequently the latest
akmod-nvidia drivers from testing. Whenever I boot into XFCE and then
choose to reboot, it goes to a black screen which says "rebooting," but
it hangs there.
If anybody can point me to a fix...thanks ahead of time...

Installed wireless NIC, cannot configure...
by Darryl L. Pierce
I swapped a USB wired nic for a PCI one last night in my Fedora
machine last night. The wireless card (Linksys WMP54G PCI) is recognized
by the machine, I see the kernel modules (rt61pci + others) loaded and I
can see in /var/log/messages that the hardware's present.
But I can't get NetworkManager to setup the card. I've rebooted the
machine and was able to get nm-connection-editor to let me create a new
connection based on the mac address of the card. But every time I try to
bring it up I get an I/O error.
I know the card works: I took it from a machine that was working
perfectly on the network. But I'm not sure of how to proceed with
getting the card configured in an already setup machine.
Any recommendations are appreciated.

Fedora 19 Gnome 3 with Nvidia Geforce 5200
by Michael D. Setzer II
I have a classroom that currently has Fedora 17, and tested a
machine booting from the livecd via flash and the gnome3
worked? I then upgraded a machine to fedora 19, and gnome
classic, KDE, and xfce work, but the gnome comes back with an
error. The is also openbox, but it comes up with a blank screen,
but clicking will bring up a menu and then seems to work?
Gnome come up with this error, and goes back to the login
screen.
Oh no! Something has gone wrong.
With a notebook had an issue, but setting up dmlight fixed that
problem, but did the same here, and still same results.
Note clear why the gnome 3 worked from the live image, but the
fedup upgrade to 19 it doesn't?

GCC issue
by Suvayu Ali
Hi,
I have a strange problem. When I try to use std::to_string() I get the
following error:
$ g++ -o test_to_string test_to_string.cc
test_to_string.cc: In function ‘int main()’:
test_to_string.cc:7:28: error: ‘to_string’ is not a member of ‘std’
std::cout << "Five: " << std::to_string(5) << std::endl;
^
Here is my test file (test_to_string.cc):
----------8<----------8<----------
#include <iostream>
#include <string>
int main()
{
std::cout << "Five: " << std::to_string(5) << std::endl;
return 0;
}
----------8<----------8<----------
A quick search does not point me to any error on my part[1]. Is there a
bug in Fedora GCC?
Thanks for any thoughts.

Because (gcc says) c++11 support in gcc is still experimental, see:
