Just a personal note here, not at all difinitive:

I used to have a Windows 10 VM in Virtualbox (on Centos-7) and the
Windows sound sucked. Garbled, distorted, and lots of added noise. Does
that seem to be anything like the described "artifacts" ??

I'd guess it's some general issue with Win10 sound, and that MS
doesn't "love Linux" enough to actually make it workd in a VM.
They probably want you to run Linux in a VM on windows, not the
other way around.

I've experienced this as well, and haven't really dug into it, since my

Linux-native.  I do have Celemony Melodyne on Windows, but I haven't

[CentOS] virt-manager guest and sound

2020-06-10 Thread Jerry Geis
I am running C7 host and pulse audio. I have a Win 10 guest with ICH9
audio. It works - but I hear artifacts. Anything to do to help audio be
flawless under guest VM ?
Currently I was just on youtube and playing a song. nothing special.

Plenty of resources on the host. The guest has 8G ram and 8 CPU.

Thanks

[CentOS] In CentOS 8 new install, old /home, .desktop opens in gedit

2020-06-10 Thread Lamar Owen

Ok, hoping someone has seen this or at least knows where to look.

I have been waiting around a bit to upgrade my system to CentOS 8, and 
actually wanted to wait on 8.2, but had an opportunity this week to 
actually do the work, so took the opportunity.  Here was my process:


1.) Installed CentOS 8.1.1911 on a spare mSATA SSD in my spare M6700 
laptop.  Installed the RPMfusion nVidia drivers, the PowerTools repo, 
set up the extensions for Places, Applications, etc, and got it prepped 
to accept my /home disk.


2.) After complete backups, physically moved my /home disk from the 
CentOS 7 M6700 to the CentOS 8 M6700.  /home is on a LUKS LVM lv; got 
all the mount options and encryption options setup to start on boot.  
All of that now works, even though it took a bit of wrangling (if the 
filesystem mount is set to start up at boot without the nofail option 
BUT the encryption option is left at the User Default setting, it will 
not work!).  Did a complete SELinux relabel (touch /.autorelabel and 
reboot).   Moved the default GNOME config dirs over to the old /home; 
don't want a lot of cruft left over from the C7 install (which has been 
upgraded over the years from C6, Fedora 14, and earlier, and it was time 
to get rid of some cruft, I'm sure).  After booting back up with the old 
/home in place, verified the GNOME extensions settings I had set up 
after the new install. All looks good, and working like it's supposed to 
so far.


3.) Moved over the Win10 and Win7 virtual machines, all of that works fine.

4.) Started installing my everyday programs, beginning with Harrison 
Mixbus.  The program put its menu entry in place; all good. However, 
when I go to double click on the .desktop shortcut, it opens in gedit.  
Hmm, this ain't quite right.  This worked fine on C7 in GNOME Standard mode.


So, at this point, the Mixbus_6.0.702.desktop file is on my desktop, 
it's in ~/Desktop with executable permissions and is owned by the 
correct user, but right-clicking on it does not bring up the choice to 
'Allow Launching.'  The GNOME Extension 'Desktop Icons' is installed and 
is active.  I've tried a whole lot of suggestions, but wanted to see if 
anyone here had seen this before and has solved the problem to allow 
launching of the .desktop file as it is supposed to do.  Just knowing 
that 'it works for you' actually is helpful, especially if we can figure 
out what is different from my install to yours (SELinux context, 
permissions, etc).  Just knowing where to look would be helpful; and I'm 
going to diff my old GNOME config from my /home backup to the fresh 
as-installed config


gnome-shell-extension-desktop-icons-3.32.1-10.el8.noarch is installed.

It seems a still developed piece of software. Here the home page:

There also was ledgersmb which is/was a fork of sql-ledger. Both got the job

Keep in mind, I have not looked at either one in about 4 years and have
no idea what the current status is. My business needs changed so I moved on.

Just mv those files that you changed (as shown by rpm -V packagename) 
and yum reinstall the package, then you can diff the original files to

I love etckeeper enough that I started keeping /var/named under git, as

I do disable etckeeper's nightly commit as I don't want it combining

to block updates if there's an uncommitted change so I'll fix things when 
that happens.
