What is Fedora?

An operating system, a set of projects, and a mindset.

What is Fedora? Fedora is a Linux-based operating system that showcases the latest in free and open source software. Fedora is always free for anyone to use, modify, and distribute. It is built by people across the globe who work together as a community: the Fedora Project. The Fedora Project is open and anyone is welcome to join. The Fedora Project is out front for you, leading the advancement of free, open software and content.

The operating system is Fedora. It comes out twice a year. It's completely free, and we're committed to keeping it that way. It's the best combination of robust and latest software that exists in the free software world.

The mindset is doing the right thing. To us, that means providing free and open software and content, at no cost, freely usable, modifiable, redistributable, and unencumbered by software patents.

What is Fedora-MY

Fedora presence in Malaysia is quite low especially among typical home users but is more commonly found within companies and organizations. Fedora users in Malaysia are generally on their own without knowing the existence of others.

This community site is created to address this issue, to gather all Malaysian Fedora users and experts in one umbrella for communication and information sharing, and maybe doing events together.

We hope for any lowyatians who are using Fedora could contribute for on our website/forum and spend sometime at #fedora-my@freenode.net .

For more info we can discuss at the at #fedora-my in freenode.

Is the problem with my hardisk is somehow related with other hardwares such as the motherboard. Because the hardisk is just bought less then a year so it shouldn`t be dat bad !!!.

2. Has it got to do we the cables? Afaik the cable is not damaged or is it possible the power supply.

3.I haven`t get caught in this trouble when i was using the old mobo that is Asus A8N SLI non-premium edition..

Wonder why? any suggestion?

PC won`t boot up

paladin86 — Mon, 14 Aug 2006 00:41:50 +0800

I have a 1 year old PC;
here`s the spec;

ASUS A8N SLI ;
AMD 64 3200+ Winchester
1GB DDR 400 KVR
450 Chapalang PSU
80GB WD SATA
16x DVD Writer

Problem:

The computer won`t boot on after some blackout yesterday. The LED of the motherboard gives a small fade light. but nothing else.
It won`t perform any POST or give any beeps.

Action Taken;

PSU have been switched with an Antec TruePower 480W.. Still nothing change.
LED is slightly more brighter. All other hardwares 7 drives blax3 have been plug off. still same effect. Chapalang PSU have been tested on other PC work just fine.

My Theory: Motherboad rosak

So I just want to get some confirmation is the motherboad rosak or should i do some other test? If rosak is it repairable at any shop or should i switch it with a new one?

I think it`s another brontox but

Well, right now i have 48 hours to restore some computerized audio system in an auditorium.
Well here`s the major problem, the computer is running on Windows XP Home..
One of my lackys somehow ( ithink accidently run a file in his pendrive without considering there might be virus in it or not).

The problem is I don`t have the authority to just pull out the hardisk and format is as most of the software that is needed to control the audio equipments is owned by some sub contractors somewhere in the next Continent.

And this evening i turn it on and damn it can login but quickly logoff.
I tried safe mode/ normal mode / debug mode and any mode. I just can`t do anything. The system quickly log of just as I login.

I have lunch my modified Hiren Disc. to scan for any virus known to Mankind using f-prot and McAfee and also Clam Win.

Well it did find the virus but it won`t solve the login logoff problem..

Care to help anyone?:
