This is guide, howto upgrade Fedora 16 to Fedora 17 with Preupgrade. Preupgrade download needed packages from the server, set up everything ready and then reboot to Anaconda installer and after package installation it boots to the new system. It’s important backup your important files before upgrading.
If the aim is to update older versions of Fedora to Fedora 16, then each version have to be upgraded step by step:
Upgrade Fedora 13 to Fedora 14 with Preupgrade >>
Upgrade Fedora 14 to Fedora 15 with Preupgrade >>
Upgrade Fedora 15 to Fedora 16 with Preupgrade >>
I like very much Ethan Schoonover Solarized color palette. So I decided write a guide, howto get Solarized colors to most commonly used Linux terminals (Gnome-Terminal, Konsole, XFCE Terminal, Mate-Terminal), Text editors (Gedit, Vim) and IDEs (Eclipse, NetBeans). These are not my projects, so the greatest honor belongs, of course, these projects owners and Ethan Schoonover.
1. Install Needed Tools (git, mercurial, 7-zip) 2. Create and Change to Solarized Directory 3. Solarized Terminals 3.1 Solarized Gnome-Terminal 3.2 Solarized Konsole 3.3 Solarized Terminal (XFCE Terminal) 3.4 Solarized Mate-Terminal 4. Solarized Editors 4.1 Solarized Gedit 4.2 Solarized Vim 5. Solarized IDEs 5.1 Solarized Eclipse 5.2 Solarized NetBeans 1. Install Needed Tools (git, mercurial, 7-zip) This is normally easiest do with you package management system, like:
PHP APC (Alternative PHP Cache / Opcode Cache) is framework that optimizes PHP intermediate code and caches data and compiled code from the PHP bytecode compiler in shared memory. APC Opcode Cache is quickly becoming the de-facto standard PHP caching mechanism.
(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});PHP APC installation is very easy, example with Fedora / CentOS / Red Hat (RHEL) you can check following guides to see howto install it:
Install Nginx/PHP-FPM on Fedora/CentOS/Red Hat (RHEL)
Install Apache/PHP on Fedora/CentOS/Red Hat (RHEL)
This is quick guide, howto Backup (dump) and Restore (load) SVN (Subversion) repository on Linux. This is actually very simple and important task.

Check Installed Kernels and All Kernel Packages rpm -qa kernel\* |sort -V kernel-4.18.9-200.fc28.x86_64 kernel-4.18.10-200.fc28.x86_64 kernel-core-4.18.9-200.fc28.x86_64 kernel-core-4.18.10-200.fc28.x86_64 kernel-devel-4.18.9-200.fc28.x86_64 kernel-devel-4.18.10-200.fc28.x86_64 kernel-headers-4.18.10-200.fc28.x86_64 kernel-modules-4.18.9-200.fc28.x86_64 kernel-modules-4.18.10-200.fc28.x86_64 kernel-modules-extra-4.18.9-200.fc28.x86_64 kernel-modules-extra-4.18.10-200.fc28.x86_64 2. Delete / Remove Old Kernels 2.1 Delete / Remove Old Kernels on Fedora ## dnf repoquery set negative --latest-limit ## ## as how many old kernels you want keep ## dnf remove $(dnf repoquery --installonly --latest-limit=-2 -q) 2.2 Delete / Remove Old Kernels on CentOS / Red Hat (RHEL) ## CentOS, Red Hat (RHEL) ## yum install yum-utils ## Package-cleanup set count as how many old kernels you want keep ## package-cleanup --oldkernels --count=2 3. Make Amount of Installed Kernels Permanent on Fedora / CentOS / Red Hat (RHEL) Edit /etc/yum.conf or /etc/dnf/dnf.conf and set installonly_limit:
