 Can you give a try to gnome-settings-daemon-3.8.3-3.fc19 ? This should
 fix up the issue with the extra quotes.

Solved. Thanks a lot!

F19 locale issue?

2013-06-16 Thread Jan Dvořák
Hi,

I don't have any idea how this happened:

$ locale
locale: Cannot set LC_ALL to default locale: No such file or directory
LANG=en_US.utf8
LC_CTYPE=en_US.utf8
LC_NUMERIC=\'\'
LC_TIME=\'\'
LC_COLLATE=en_US.utf8
LC_MONETARY=\'\'
LC_MESSAGES=en_US.utf8
LC_PAPER=\'\'
LC_NAME=en_US.utf8
LC_ADDRESS=en_US.utf8
LC_TELEPHONE=en_US.utf8
LC_MEASUREMENT=\'\'
LC_IDENTIFICATION=en_US.utf8
LC_ALL=

I have LANG=en_US.UTF-8 on kernel cmdline and in /etc/locale.conf.

Any clues?

Best regards,
Jan Dvorak

 +  If a user could hold the key down from before power on until the

 booting without presenting the user with a short time interval to  
 hit.  If grub finds the keyboard, and detects no F key hold down,  
 it would continue to boot immediately with no further delay.

There are at least two problems with that:

 *  Holding key over remote VNC console can be problematic,
especially if the server POSTs slowly.

 *  Holding key on BIOS machines usually results in a long beep
sound and keyboard lockup.  I never understood why.

And again, I would like to add that servers tend to change video
mode during POST, sometimes even several times.  On some chassis
this results to losing video output for several (think 2) seconds.
That means that even showing a brief [press F for options] sucks.

Re: Improving the Fedora boot experience

2013-03-12 Thread Jan Dvořák
Hi,

first of all, I respect your work very much and am actually very
grateful for avahi, pulseaudio and systemd as I was for ifplugd
back in the old days when Gentoo was cool.

 Fast boot times matter to dual-boot users, they matter to everybdoy who
 doesn't run his system 24/7,

That is indeed very true and the experience of rebooting to Windows to
play a few games with friends sucks because of long shutdown and bootup
times.

On the other hand, from my experience the situation frequently requires
making tee, rearanging furniture and preparing waterpipe charcoal which
means lot of confusion and running around.  I have witness, several times,
people booting back to their default system and having to go through the
reboot once again just because they have missed the OS selection dialog.

You might have noticed that Microsoft goes with 20 second timeout on
Windows/Windows dual-boot systems.  I am sure there is a reason for that.

 Fast boot times matter on desktops, they matter on embedded, they matter
 on mobile, they matter or servers, they matter everywhere.

As have already been mentioned before, POSTing server takes so long
that GRUB delay is hardly noticeable.  But what is worse, if you miss
the kernel selection dialog on a server, you look at UP TO FIVE MORE
MINUTES of waiting for the damn thing before you get another attempt.

I have worked with IBM, Dell and HP remote management consoles and one
thing can be guaranteed -- if you give user less than 2s time window
after display mode switch, she *will* frequently miss the keystroke.


So, what would be the solution that will actually help on laptops
while keeping benefits of the current system where people need them?
I am thinking of a Reboot To dialog in GNOME, which will help with
dual-booting. Next, add anaconda option to toggle GRUB prompt and
autodetect it's default state, which will speed up boot on laptops
while keeping sysadmins sane.

 Do you see the same problem starting KDE instead?

I will try again with something that does not use cogl and with
disabled rc6, now that I have btrfs root with snapshots.

Until then.

Both KDM and Xfce4 work flawlessly.

I have tried with i915.i915_enable_rc6=0 and there was no difference.

I've spent a considerable amount of time trying to downgrade the packages,
but there were too many.  I am wiping both F18-rawhide and rawhide LVs and
starting anew from F18 with blacklisted cogl-1.13.4, this time with system

Have anyone else bitten by this talked to cogl developers yet?

system freezes after loading gdm/gnome

2013-02-25 Thread Jan Dvořák
Hi,

I am running rawhide for fun and since a few days ago a few seconds
after starting gdm the whole system freezes. I am sorry that I can't
really pinpoint the exact update as I suspend and this only manifested
after a reboot.

The problem is that I don't get any logs and running startx with
exec gnome-session in .xinitrc leads to the exactly same problem.

Interestingly, if I run just gnome-terminal from my .xinitrc,
close it and then re-run with full gnome-session, I get the shell
and everything seems to work.  Well, except it is somewhat sluggish,
suggesting some hidden breakage.

Any advices?

Jan Dvorak

The Xorg.0.log is attached as well as `rpm -qa` output.

The system was originally F18, but I decided to upgrade to rawhide.
I am going to try clean rawhide install on another LV.

No, not really.  Just a black screen, possibly with the frozen cursor
