Greetings:
I upgraded from FC10 to FC11 yesterday. I had no problems using FC11 after I looked into the bootloader (not intuitive - Ha!).
Tried to boot up this morning; and things seemed to work well until I tried to call up Firefox (added a few themes yesterday).
The window pops open; but the computer freezes on the spot with an alarm (generic "beep", w/o the finishing "p"). Tried it with Epiphany; and I get the same results with the exception of actually getting to the Home Page.
Yum works for the most part - I reinstalled Firefox (no effect); but couldn't reinstall epiphany (keeps saying "there is no such package - did you mean 'epiphany'". No typos on my part - go figure). Doing Software/Package Updates (via System Menu) freezes the box as well.
Did it with the system monitor on. It doesn't appear to be related to CPU Usage.
Had a FC10 liveUSB and used it for awhile (e.g. to check out the forums). After giving my ISP some grief about downloading speed, immediately received a note from their Abuse Department, saying that my machine had been infected with a virus and had been sending spam emails (post upgrade to FC11). The USB froze while I tried to do a pretty large update; and I couldn't boot from the puppy again.
During the boot on the box, I do get several messages before logon (the blue bar doesn't move on my install). They are:
virbr0: Starting userspace STP failed: starting Kernel STP
and
eth0: MediaLink -100mb, full duplex
I'm on a LiveCD (Another OS) now. Using this box for work. Need some help on troubleshooting the 1) Internet Access/freeze and 2) "Virus" (according to ISP)problem.
Thank you.
