Openshift Console in terminal

Needs an openshift console to control your openshift application, just install rubygem-rhc, i’m using fedora 17, I just installed it with yum. First, do a yum provides to check the version available from repository and then you install it

1. yum provides rubygem-rhc

2. yum install rubygem-rhc-0.91.12-3.fc17.noarch

The openshift console is simply your terminal and some commands to control the application from it.

Now that you have installed, you can take control of your openshift account from your terminal:

Openshift console command

rhc-app ( | cartridge cartridge-action | --help) [args]

in your terminal, just run the command rhc-app, you’ll get the syntax of the command including all the command, cartridge-action and arguments,

Now suppose you want to restart your application,

its as simple as

rhc-app restart -a applicationName -l usernameOpenShift

if everything goes fine, it should output a success
RESULT:
Success

Broadcom on fedora 17 due to missing firmware

Getting Firmware missing on broadcom fedora 17

broadcom fedora 17.So, I’ve just installed Fedora 17, no great changes in UI, but it’s nice. Now, as always, the problem I get is to set up wireless on laptop(I love my old Dell Inspiron 1545) which uses a broadcom 4312. In case, you are having the same issue, you can follow the procedures below or follow the links found at the end of this post.

First, ensure you have b43-fwcutter,

yum install b43-fwcutter

Now, perform the following:

1 export FIRMWARE_INSTALL_DIR="/lib/firmware"
2 wget http://www.lwfinger.com/b43-firmware/broadcom-wl-5.100.138.tar.bz2
3 tar xjf broadcom-wl-5.100.138.tar.bz2
4 sudo b43-fwcutter -w "$FIRMWARE_INSTALL_DIR" broadcom-wl-5.100.138/linux/wl_apsta.o

The above information has been found in the links below:
