Re: GNOME Boxes resizing the disk
On 03/08/2015 01:28 AM, Chris Murphy wrote: qemu-img, virt-resize, and guestfish. It depends on whether you're shrinking or growing which you use and in what order. All of it can be done from the host using qemu-img and guestfish, without the VM being online. And guestfish can resize (well, delete then add) MBR and GPT partitions, resize LVs, and at least the three major filesystems. For sure the VM needs to be off when using guestfish. Of course, you could boot the VM from some other image, and use the tools you're familiar with from inside the VM. For growing, it's possible to do this online even without booting from some other image, but it'll take one early reboot after changing the last partition size, or adding another partition, to capture the extra space from qemu-img resize. Chris Murphy Hi! So I actually chose the smallest/defaut size and that was a mistake. Now I need to increase the size which I did through the GUI, but of course the OS (GNU/Linux) doesn't see it. I do not want to delete the disk and make a bigger one as I don't want to reinstall. I think the fs type is ext4 but I went through automatic install and didn't pay attention... I couldn't find out how to reboot for the iso file an already installed VM. Thank you if you could tell me more.

Yeah, I did figure out how to drag a panel across to the other display (uncheck the expand box in the panel properties then you can drag it). I also found out that if you're careful about how you configure the Nvidia Settings, it will treat the two screens as separate displays, and Mate will automatically populate the second screen with panels. Unfortunately, with either technique, the panels on the second screen appear with nothing on them.

Re: Thunderbird does not display images in email messages
On Fri, 2015-03-06 at 17:34 -0700, jd1008 wrote: I have been having a problem with TB for quite some time, and I am getting rather tired of the problem. Images in messages that are sent to me by users of windows are not displayed in TB. Rather, all I see are empty boxes where images are supposed to be. This is not to say that every message I get from windows users containing images are treated this way by TB. There are three ways messages may contain images, that I can think of off the top of my head: 1. A plain text message, with files attached. But this doesn't sount like your situation. 2. A HTML message which has the images included with the email. These may be the kind that works for you. Though there will be some mail clients that simply create badly encoded mail, and will fail unless you use a similarly broken mail client. 3. A HTML message which doesn't include the images with the email, but has URIs for fetching the images from a webserver. These may be the kind that don't work for you. Also, most mail clients that author HTML email, create a simultaneous plain text version of the message. Some mail clients can be configured to show one or the other, as a preference, for these kinds of messages. If you're viewing the plain text version, you won't see the images in the message. The sample you provided, on a later email, has some JPEGs encoded into the message (as per the second description, above). But you didn't say if you were supplying a working or non-working sample. Various mail clients give you options for dealing with images in messages, such as always showing them, never showing them, never downloading images from the net, or always showing images for certain people you've okayed in your address book. You may need to look through your VIEW menu in the message reader, and some entries in your address book. These days, there's a tendency for the default being to not download images from the net, automatically (you instruct the mail client to fetch them, if you want them, while reading the message). This being due to these images being used for nefarious techniques of one kind or another (monitoring that you've read the message, exploiting foibles in mail clients with specially crafted data, etc). -- tim@localhost ~]$ uname -rsvp Linux 3.18.7-100.fc20.i686 #1 SMP Wed Feb 11 21:16:53 UTC 2015 i686 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.

Booting up to black screen - Log included
Greetings, I previously posted that since a fedup to fedora 21, I intermittently boot up to a blank screen. I'm using akmod-nvidia-340xx, but reverting back to nouveau did not solve the issue.

I'm not convinced it's the best way to do things for those that only need to do the occasional system administration (because, generally, their computer just works fine). You can limit the amount of data to be grepped or otherwise searched, if you just tell journalctl to limit its output a bit. On a system that is booted quite frequently, limiting oneself to just messages since the last boot should work nicely: journalctl -b | grep -i ntp If your system has a long uptime, the -b option might produce a large amount of data. In such a case, you might instead use the --since option: journalctl --since '-1 week' | grep -i ntp I would usually let journalctl put the results in a pager (it does that by default when not piping) and then use the search/filter features of less to narrow down the results. These examples use grep, though, because you seemed to prefer using it for searching. -Joonas -- 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?

Re: Problem installing Fedora 22 Alpha RC3
Hi all, @Lawrence: if the screen goes black at boot time it seems it could a video issue, does your computer have a hybrid GPU setup? You can do $ lspci | grep -i vga from your running system. Also, you might try booting the ISO in the so-called 'safe' mode to reach the GUI. I'm running F21 and my system has weird Intel/ATI setup. To boot the image I had to do so in safe mode, install the system that way (I miss a text installer!) then add the proper flags to the kernel line in /etc/default/grub in order to have both CPU working as expected and enjoy my screen max resolution. As a side note, it would be good if you switch to the test ML as instructed to help keep things tidy. HTH.

Re: [ F21 ] How to remove GNOME
Hello Sam, Yes, it seems that some packages in Fedora pulls down more dependencies than I would like; for instance removing the GNOME Desktop group (if it actually existed) should only remove everything GNOME-related stuff and only that, not whatever else on what it may depend. Conversely, one should be able to install X or Wayland separately - at least that's how I used with Arch and Gentoo albeit RHEL seems more close to Debian in this regard. About the question I made, I think it is quite self-explanatory: there are groups for every-other Desktop Environment (even one for Window Managers) but there's none for GNOME Desktop. Of course I believe one could go and remove leftovers by hand, what I say is that's strange - just to say something - that there isn't a meta-group that takes care of that. Regards.

Re: Fedora 20: After running yum update the Mate Terminal doesn't start anymore
As for alternative terminals, rxvt-unicode-256color (actual name of the
package) is a nice starting point (you can customize it via ~/.Xdefaults).
Another good alternative and more close to what I think you are used to is
lxterminal, the terminal emulator from Xfce.
Then you have Konsole (KDE's terminal) and GNOME's gnome-terminal, E17's
fancy term, aterm, eterm, xterm...
And finally you have Terminator - albeit I'm not sure if it's a terminal
emulator by its own or it needs gnome-terminal as an underlying base.
In any case tmux+{your terminal of choice} should be a better choice.

Re: Problem installing Fedora 22 Alpha RC3

How would you report that? Exactly like you just did. The thing is, you've actually just told us a lot. You shouldn't be using Alpha at all, so I advise you to stop and test Fedora 21 final release instead. Alpha testers know they need to go to the Troubleshooting menu and try basic graphics mode first in such a case. It really isn't fair to come on a non-test list and ask about Alpha test build behavior which could very well be buggy in a way no one on this list can help with. If you have problems with Fedora 21 final, this list is a good place to be. But still you really should have poked the thing right in front of you, the Troubleshooting menu, with a stick, before poking people on a mailing list.

With a multipart message (text and pictures), there's one type of header you could expect. With a multipart alternative (a text version with a HTML version, there's another type. Some mail clients, particularly Microsoft ones, are infamous for creating outright broken message, so all bets are off regarding proper interpretation.
