She has given up trying to find one and has asked me to help... but so far I've struck out. Does she just play back MIDI files with her own custom SoundFont files? MIDI playback these days is usually done completely in software, it's hard to find a card that does it anymore. The Fedora repositories contain a software MIDI implementation called fluidsynth. You can install it with `yum install fluidsynth`. Once it's installed, it can be run in server mode. This exposes a MIDI sound device to other applications that appears identical to to a hardware MIDI playback device. Just run something like: fluidsynth --server --audio-driver=alsa -o audio.alsa.device=hw:0 /path/to/her/soundfont.sf2 And a MIDI device with the soundfont she wants is created, which she can use in all her software just like she used to use with her real live card in the past. Are there ANY PCIE sound which is roughly the equivalent of the Audigy 2 cards? I won't say money is no object, but I'm approaching the point where cost is less important than finding such a card if on exists. Of course, if she needs to plug a MIDI instrument in, you can't just do that in software. ;-) Unfortunately PCI-e cards that do MIDI are a rare, expensive breed, and most that do seem to have a bunch of other stuff she probably doesn't need. She might be stuck with a USB or FireWire device. :-( -T.C. -- users mailing list users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?

I've forgotten, by now, which browser you're trying to apply this too.
Firefox 34.0 in an updated Fedora-21 64 bit XFCE etc.
The following .css file:
[bobg@box7 chrome]$ cat userContent.css
# !/bin/bash
# /home/bobg/.mozilla/firefox/xx34clzp.default/chrome/userContent.css
*
{
color: white !important;

I moved it to userContent.css.xxx and deleted the working file to test
with/without.
There is no perceptible difference with the .css file running. I even
tried testing with add-ons disabled which puts it in test mode, and
saw no difference, however that might disable the .css file too?
These tests were done on box7 a second Fedora-21 computer, not this one
which I have been using for this until now. This one, my main box is
home made, the other an old [Optiplex 755] Dell computer but both are
set up nearly identical with Fedora-21.
Looking at Fox News I see what looks to me like gray text, some headings
in red, on a white background. I expect it to be white text on black ...
So the .css file is not doing what it should.

Thanks for the reply Tim. F21 is still using /etc/default/grub and I

It should mean boot the same as last time, so whenever you pick an
entry from the list, the same one gets used, each boot, until you pick
differently.
That behavior also requires GRUB_SAVEDEFAULT='true'. By itself,
GRUB_DEFAULT=saved merely causes grubenv to be consulted for what to
boot rather than it being statically defined in the grub.cfg.
There may need to be another keyword, elsewhere, to make each selection
get saved (GRUB_DEFAULT=saved just says to use it), but I'm not
familiar
enough with the new GRUB.
Alternatively, changed =saved to point to a specific kernel.
Look at the grub.cfg and find the menuentry you want:
menuentry 'Fedora, with Linux 3.17.4-301.fc21.x86_64' --class fedora
--class gnu-linux --class gnu --class os --unrestricted
$menuentry_id_option

{
And copy-paste the last section, using it in this command:
grub2-set-default
'gnulinux-3.17.4-301.fc21.x86_64-advanced-f3332d09-65f9-48c5-8539-c2b9ec8c75b4'
Or set it as GRUB_DEFAULT= in /etc/default/grub and the make a new
grub.cfg with grub2-mkconfig -o /boot/grub2/grub.cfg
You need to study the manual, come back to the list with any questions
about things you can't understand.
It might be helpful but I see it mainly targeted at developers who are
boot and OS install oriented. It's not really an end user manual, and
grub isn't really meant for interaction by users.
Thanks for your response Chris, the only problem with that is that
command is needed to be issued every time the kernel is upgraded. What
I am looking for is a method whereby, if with the next kernel upgrade,
there is an upgrade to the debug kernel and an upgrade to the
non-debug kernel, grub will select the non-debug kernel automatically
rather than the debug kernel as seems to be happening with the F21
upgrade.
I specified GRUB_SAVEDEFAULT='true' and that seemed to work great. Now
all that remains is to determine, why F21 has settled on the debug
kernel as the default if F21 isn't still Beta, why grub doesn't honour
resolution settings as F20 grub did, why plymouth no longer works
properly in F21 or like it did in F20, why the nvidia source code
modules don't compile at boot time when needed and why if there is no
ethernet available and wireless is switched off the KDE desktop does not
start properly.

Steve

Re: eclipse
Hi Glenn , You are right, I know very well NetBeans, that I used it for many years... But since I changed the OS to Fedora the well know scanning project problem, don't allow me to work anymore ...

F21 - Huge icons
Icons are taking over the World! In Fedora 21, that is. I've always been afraid that the GUI generation would eventually make Linux completely unusable, and now they've almost succeeded. :-) In a few F21 GUI panels the icons are grotesquely large - 1.75 inches square on a 15 inch wide monitor. Normal size would be ~0.25 in. This makes the panel nearly incomprehensible. This occurs in, eg, system-config-printer system-config-firewall virt-manager A screenshot is attached of virt-manager running an instance of Centos 7 on the Fedora 21 host. [No, it's not! GUI's are OK; images of them are too big for this list. Sigh...] The virt-manager icons are so big that that the virtual window cannot be enlarged to a proper size. A possible clue to the error are the messages in the root window following the virt-manager command: [root@datwiz ~] # virt-manager [root@datwiz ~] # (virt-manager:1994): Gtk-WARNING **: Theme parsing error: gtk.css:67:18: Not using units is deprecated. Assuming 'px'. (virt-manager:1994): Gtk-WARNING **: Theme parsing error: gtk.css:67:20: Not using units is deprecated. Assuming 'px'. Similar messages appear when system-config-printer is invoked. Unfortunately these mean nothing to me. FWIW, I installed F20 using the wonderful Live Xfce4 images ( thank you Kevin Fenzi ), and have completely avoided the dreaded Gnome. I've enabled multi-user.target so that neither lightdm nor gdm can destroy my env variables. My questions to you all: Does anyone see these huge icons in the example programs? Can anyone guess the problem with the Theme? Am I the only one with the problem? On three machines, so far? -- David A.

Re: Fedup troubles
Downloading failed: Didn't install any keys [root@localhost ~]# Clue, please? I never could get the GPG part of the Rpmfusion repo to work with fedup. I ended up using --nogpgcheck (yes I am aware of the risks of doing that) so that I could get fedup to complete. Once I had done the upgrade, I had to manually correct some of the symlinks in /etc/pki/rpm-gpg to get further updates to work properly without --nogpgcheck. There is a point during the upgrade process where the generic symlink RPM-GPG-KEY-fedora-x86_64 has to be changed from pointing to the F20 key to pointing to the F21 key, and this isn't working right. This seems like more of an rpmfusion problem than a Fedora problem. So I ran with --nogpgcheck, then manually fixed the symlink afterwards. My updates work fine now. --Greg -- users mailing list users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?

Fedup issues
Overall, I say that this worked pretty good. Two machines different problems. First machine, F20 to F21. Full procedure followed and install went almost 100% perfect. Only issue remaining is that I have two F20 kernels listed via rpm but not when I run yum list kernel. I removed on kernel with yum and they were all listed. Now I cannot remove any others by yum. I have rebuilt the rpm database rpm --rebuilddb On the second machine, I removed the F20 kernels from the lowest number to the highest, one at a time. Machine seems to work perfectly. Machine 2. Dual boot, Win 8.1 / Fedora. While running fedup, is stuck at the end. Before the shutdown and reboot. Don't know what happened but after two hours of sitting there, I shut down. On reboot, machine couldn't find the grubenv. I found a bug and followed some of the instructions and now it boots. Before I got to this point, I couldn't boot into any of the F20 kernel listed and the rescue mode wouldn't let me mount any of the unused partitions automatically. I removed the old kernels using yum one at a time from the lowest version to the latest. Only issue that I see to have right now is that the /home/user partitions are not mounting but fstab doesn't look like it was changed. I will have to check pam-mount configuration. Don't know if encryption has had anything to do with this. Only 3 more machines to do. Two from F19 to F21. Will find out if encryption has anything to do with this. -- users mailing list users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
