Nice to know.
I hardly ever use fpaste, but decided to try it today since the change was
made. So, I simply used the first example in the man page
[egreshko@meimei ~]$ ifconfig | fpaste -d "Test"
Uploading (1.1KiB)...

Re: Unrelieved black popups and message boxes [SOLVED?]
On 04/29/2013 06:27 AM, Temlakos issued this missive: Remember that problem I had, with unrelieved black in pop-up windows or un-minimized applications? Well, if you remember: on Saturday, April 27, the kernel development team pushed a new version of the kernel at that time. They've pushed one since then, so I am using version 3.8.9.200. Since the version immediately before that, I have not had one single problem with pop-up windows going black (or with KDE windows going transparent, which was a change in KDE's behavior from all-black to transparent several months ago). This convinces me that the kernel, or any of a number of packages that accompany it, was at fault--and somewhere in the development process, something the kernel development team did for the last version before the current one, solved the problem with unrelieved black windows when running on Intel processors. Naturally if this happens again, I'll be back. But now I know where to file the bug against: the kernel, or one of its associated packages. Probably associated with the video driver kmod.

Interesting and impressive. A 32" LCD on the desktop does seem a bit much in size and scope. It is configured to be a usable 16:9 aspect ratio. Very pleased to see that. This has been an excellent site I refer to when monitor shopping: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Graphics_display_resolution They tend to have a clue about practical sizes and their impacts.

It happens to me too, after 2 or 3 hours of use. Not only pop ups pr message boxes are black, but every window. Plasma and wallpaper are fine. I'm using KDE 4.9, Fedora 18 64-bits, and as somebody say, may be it is related with Intel chipset, because my netbook is an Intel one. Is there a bug filed for this issue? /Cheers, thanks/ */Lailah/* I wouldn't know where to file the bug, or against what. Temlakos I guess it is in Fedora Bugs or in KDE Bugzilla. Against KDE Desktop or Plasma. If I'm wrong, somebody can correct me. /Regards,/ */Lailah/* Remember that problem I had, with unrelieved black in pop-up windows or un-minimized applications? Well, if you remember: on Saturday, April 27, the kernel development team pushed a new version of the kernel at that time. They've pushed one since then, so I am using version 3.8.9.200. Since the version immediately before that, I have not had one single problem with pop-up windows going black (or with KDE windows going transparent, which was a change in KDE's behavior from all-black to transparent several months ago). This convinces me that the kernel, or any of a number of packages that accompany it, was at fault--and somewhere in the development process, something the kernel development team did for the last version before the current one, solved the problem with unrelieved black windows when running on Intel processors. Naturally if this happens again, I'll be back. But now I know where to file the bug against: the kernel, or one of its associated packages.

3840x2160 resolution?
I am fascinated by the idea of having a Sharp PN-K321 monitor (but it will remain a fantasy till the price gets much lower :-). Out of curiosity though, I'm wondering if anyone out there in fedora-land has run a display at 3840x2160 and if so what video card and/or cards you used (and if open source drivers worked)? The manual for the sharp makes it seem a bit weird. You apparently have to run it as though it is two separate 1920x2160 displays - they just happen to exist right next to each other with no bezel separating them. Looking on newegg.com I find a few cards that claim to support 3840x2160, but it isn't clear if they can act like a dual display. -- users mailing list users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?

I've certainly come across PDF files that some programs couldn't handle in one way or another (on-screen and/or print), yet others could. You hadn't mentioned whether all PDF files failed, or just some. And, perhaps related, anytime I have to print a US-letter formatted page on my A4-only printer, I go through a lot of grief. My ye olde HP Laserjet 4, wants me to insert paper that I don't have (with a load letter warning on its display), instead of something letting me squeeze the page in to fit. So, is the PDF page size compatible with your printer's paper size? -- [tim@localhost ~]$ uname -rsvp Linux 3.8.4-102.fc17.x86_64 #1 SMP Sun Mar 24 13:09:09 UTC 2013 x86_64 All mail to my mailbox is automatically deleted, there is no point trying to privately email me, I will only read messages posted to the public lists. -- users mailing list users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?

learning systemd: disable a "service" + create one to replace it
Hi all, Configuration: F17 LXDE spin. I would like to 1°) disable LXDM launch 2°) launch a custom script i the place of it The custom script is just a one-liner: /usr/bin/X :1 -query my.session.server # chkconfig --list: livesys 0:off 1:off 2:off 3:on4:on5:on6:off livesys-late0:off 1:off 2:off 3:on4:on5:on6:off netconsole 0:off 1:off 2:off 3:off 4:off 5:off 6:off network 0:off 1:off 2:off 3:off 4:off 5:off 6:off spice-vdagentd 0:off 1:off 2:off 3:off 4:off 5:on6:off => I see no mention of "lxdm". I also tried: # find / -type f -name '*.service' => No mention of "lxdm". 1°) Where to find it, in order to disable it? 2°) Would you know a ressource if I want to make my custom script to be integrated to the systemd stuff, where to find how? https://www.google.com/search?q=custom+systemd+script is a bit messy... -- RMA. -- users mailing list users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
