Description

I'm not good with this, I only use fedora, I don't know much about maintenance and admin. Anyway, I have been unable to run the software update for a while, I get the following error message: Packages are not compatible Multiple packages exist that are not compatible with each other. This is usually due to mixing packages from different software sources. More details ERROR with rpm_check_debug vs depsolve: kernel < 2.6.26 conflicts with DeviceKit?-disks-009-3.fc12.i686 Please report this error at http://yum.baseurl.org/report

I would like to know what needs to be removed for all the packages to "agree" with one another.

Form the System monitor I am running Fedora 12, Kernel Linux 2.6.31.12-174.2.3.fc12.i686, Gnome 2.28.2.

No idea if this is related but I have been experiencing a few little problems with the screen, for example if I turn my screen off for a while then turn it back on I can no longer use the keyboard or mouse (both are connected to usb ports on the screen); also, when I turn on the pc I must keep the screen off while it boots.

Thanks for your help

Check out the kernels on your system - you likely have some fairly old ones lingering about.

solution:

check for fc5 kernal

reran yum update without any issues
