I'm not all hung up on being able to mount my phone on my systems.  I only care 
about moving files from time to time.  So, I just use an sftp client like

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=lysesoft.andftp

Works well enough for me on my Samsung Galaxy S4.

Thunar does this by default. Look right at the bottom of the Thunar
window. It gives you the amount of items in the current directory, as
well as how many space they occupy and a summary of the available
disk space.

Samsung Gs3 and F21/Xfce

[Robert Moskowitz]

When I was running F20 with Gnome, I could mount my Samsung Gs3. First 
it mounted the windows installer.  I did nothing, just waited, and this 
mount disappeared then the Samsung device mount appeared and I could 
access the files.  Mostly to move videos and pictures around.


Now on F21 with Xfce, I only get the Windows install mount which 
disappears after a bit, then nothing.  No device is showing under /dev


I really need to get some files onto the phone, and take some off. And 
no F20 or Gnome systems here.


Anyone else working with a Samsung phone and F21?

I am planning on upgrading my phone.  Either to a Gs4 or Note4. Does 
anyone have experience with either of these?


My cellular account is with VerizonWireless if this makes any difference.

thanks

Hi Martin,

  Check this: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1130550
I ran into it when attempting to install the Fedora_Server inst image. I
think it mentions something about the Security Lab.

They are open in terms of WPA/WEP, but you have to have a Comcast login and

only use your bandwidth when you are not already using it, and that this

"We're the cable company. We don't care. We don't have to."


Look into Passpoint 2.0.  That is what they are planning on deploying, and  
they may already have.  Supposedly if a non-comcast user with a valid  
Passpoint 2.0 account uses your connection, then you get a micropayment in  
all the cross billing.


Also, as has been reported elsewhere, you CAN turn off Comcastic's AP. If  
you have online access to your account, the link to turn it off is buried  
somewhere in there. Otherwise, if you yell loud enough at tech support,  
they'll do it.

Turning it off does not change anything wrt directory size, nor

assigning a usbdevice to a gnome-boxes guest/domain

[Stefan Huchler]

I want to assign to a guest/domain in gnome-boxes a usb-device a
chipcardreader.

In general if I use the gui method it works like expected.

The problem is that you have to activate the usbdevice after each
suspention of the guest again and again.

So after searching for a solution Ive seen some suggestion like that:


   
   
   
   


I start virsh and edit form there the host add this under devices and
restart the guest. When I try to resume the domain from gnome-boxes I
get an error like "cant resume" no specifics why.

When I then restart the gnome-boxes programm and try resuming again it
works. But the usb device is not forwarded so I have to forward it
manual again. In the xml file with edit command I dont find this part I
added.

So Gnome-boxes seems to overwrite it on start with something or virsh
does not save it.

I think it has something to do with this spicevmc devices I think they
fight over the same usb-devices.

 Thanks Rex!

   I too had a minor problem with /tmp being tmpfs and your post/link

have. Now to go change and recompile my text editor ...

That file does exist (to my surprise; dunno how I missed it). But 
it contains only a config file for the keyboard. There isn't any for the 
monitor at all.

If one existed, I could use it as a template for the format, just 
adding my "1680x1050" in its field, and anything else obvious elsewhere. 

But I remember only that the monitor file (or files; sometimes 
there was one that demanded "Monitor0," apart from the one with the 
numbers.

I didn't know man pages could exist for names as well as

Fwd: Your message to users awaits moderator approval

[jd1008]

Below (near the bottom) is the list server's response to my post.
My post was:

Many websites are pushing javascripts into our machines via the browsers
we use, and our browsers blithely execute these scripts and some of these
scripts install malware without our being aware of it, let alone with our
permission.
To wit, I gleaned the following from
http://www.google.com/safebrowsing/diagnostic?site=googleusercontent.com


*Has this site acted as an intermediary resulting in further 
distribution of malware?*


   Over the past 90 days, googleusercontent.com appeared to function as
   an intermediary for the infection of 16 site(s) including
   webinitiatesystems.com/   beerilove.com/   ocadesburkina.org/


*Has this site hosted malware?*

   Yes, this site has hosted malicious software over the past 90 days.
   It infected 290 domain(s), including natv.ig.com.br/ , adcod.in/ ,  
bit.ly/



-

Not allowing some of such javascripts will make the web site visited 
somewhat or totally non functional (such as searching the web site for 
something).


How come the authorities are not prosecuting the owners of websites that 
push such javascripts?

I created a .css file using only the lines you suggest:

That seems to provide white on black although I had to select those 
colors under Preferences? And I need the add-on "BYM" to display text

I'll try this for a while and see how it works on different pages, so 
far it looks good.

firewalld masquerade rich rule is not working

[Sam Varshavchik]

firewalld's --add-masquerade option breaks ntpd, and other things. This has  
been documented in bug 1152472 as always reproducible, but nobody seems to  
care.


I do notice a masquerade clause in the documentation for firewalld's "rich  
language". I was wondering if --add-masquerade's breakage could be worked  
around by enabling masquerading only for my local lan IP address range.


So I tried:

--remove-masquerade
--add-rich-language 'rule family="ipv4" source address="192.168.0.0/24" 
masquerade'

This doesn't appear to make any difference. traceroutes from the lan to  
globally-routable IP addresses are blocked by the firewall.


Is there anything missing that needs to be done. firewalld.language man  
page's description does not offer any clues.

I've had some bad experiences with Seagate (had to replace both 1TB
drives in an Iomega NAS; luckily they were RAID1 and failed at different
times). The following is often cited, though it's a year old and may not
reflect current products:

Batman flying around.


After fiddling with this for a few days I finally have 
home/bobg/.mozilla/firefox/iexecg9r.default/chrome/userContent.css. 
However finding the right parameters to change there is difficult to the 
point where I can better spend my time doing other things.


Fortunately I find that clicking a box with the meaningless [to me] name 
of "Form Enhancement" in the "Add On" BYM, another non-descriptive name, 
causes the unreadable lines to be displayed in reverse video which 
pretty well solves my display complaint.


"FT DeepDark" is probably the best add-on for the appearance that I 
want, how ever "BYM" Is still required to get the white text on black 
that I need, should anyone care about all of this.


Now I can get back to my original effort, saving the data from ios 
devices for installation in a new Iphone, iPad, iWhatever.


I've learned a few things from this, mainly that the directory "chrome" 
has to be added along with the .css file and it's there for me to 
experiment with.


Thanks for the help,

Bob.
