F21->F22 fedup on i386: no login screen

2015-05-31 Thread Max Pyziur



Greetings,

On this Fedora release cycle, I have been hoping to use fedup rather than 
do a fresh install. To that end, I have three machines running F21: an x64 
desktop, and two laptops - one x64 and the other i686.



I began w/ the i686 (a Dell Inspiron 600M) using fedup. The process is 
lengthy; but it seems to be less buggy compared to the last time that I 
tried it (upgrading from F17 to F18, when on completion the machine was 
unuseable and required a fresh install).


With reboot, I now have no 
login screen. In order to use the machine, I have to - in 
order to get a shell login screen.


Once there, I can type startx and I get Gnome 3; alas, I'm an xFce user. I 
would like to be able to have my F21 environment


Looking at some of the startup messages, I see

Started GNOME Display Manager
Starting UserManager for UID 42

Started Show Plymouth Boot Screen

Started GNOME Display Manager.e" for details.t...n...nge transactions 
7dfb6016c1.ks...



and it stop there.

Any advice as to how to proceed in order to get a login screen would be 
greatly appreciated.


Thanks.

Yes, the Fedora install media is designed to work with both UEFI and not
(as you discovered :)

Installing the grub2-efi and shim packages will populate /boot/efi/ for
Fedora.  I think the part we might have brushed over was setting up the
existing EFI System Partition in fstab and the chroot...

How does rpmbulid decide how many threads to run?  I think it looks at
the local machine and decides.  I also recall some variable called
RPMBUILD_NCPU or something like that.  That would explain why it only
uses as many threads as the local machine can handle.

Hope this helps,


Sadly, no it doesn't.  As I wrote above:

> >> >> ps shows the maximum number of "/usr/bin/distcc /usr/bin/g++  
[options]"

> >> >> processes running locally,


rpmbuild uses the _smp_mflags macro to pass the -j parameter to make, and I  
have it correctly configured to kick off ten parallel processes, to match  
the maximum number of ten processes distcc is configured (4 local, 6  
remote). Yet, despite the fact that a manual build distributes the compiles  
correctly, with rpmbuild distcc throttles the number of concurrent parallel  
jobs that it kicks off to four, and runs them locally.

When it comes to mounting external drives I always use either the UUID or

USB drive renamed during F21-F22 upgrade

2015-05-31 Thread Matthew Saltzman
It looks as though when I upgraded from F21 Server to F22 Server using
fedup, the identifier for my USB attached drive in /dev/disk/by-id
changed.  As a result, the entry in /etc/fstab that mounted that drive
failed at boot with no apparent warning.  Files intended to be written
to that drive went to / instead and filled the root partition.

I don't recall why that disk was mounted by id in the first place, but I
also don't understand why its id would change and how I should have
handled that during the upgrade.

Any thoughts, enlightenment, etc., appreciated.  Also, what's the right
way to set up automounting on a server that doesn't run a desktop
environment?

I've forgotten where I've read it, but "DumpCore=" in
"/etc/systemd/system.conf" controls whether systemd will have a
coredump or not. It has nothing to do with a coredump's name.

curl issue?

2015-05-31 Thread bruce
Hi Group.

I've got a curl issue that I figured I'd post here as well, given that
this is a slow posting day for fed! Normally, I wouldn't post non fed
things here, but this is a slow day... (I've also posted this to the
curl list as well..)

Heck, I'd even send your fav bev if you were close by!!

Got a short test that "should" work. The test is doing a
curl/fetch of a page from a site that's running jscript on the back.

The test has stepped through the initial pages/using
Firefox/LiveHttpheaders to see what the network traffic is actually
doing. This is replicated in the test curl functions. The app uses
cookies/SSL, but no user/password login process..

It's actually pretty straightforward as far as I can see.

However, the test is not able to generate the target page, and in fact
seems to be running into a 302 somewhere.

The goal is is to generate the "page" after the initial pages that has
the list of the dept alphnumeric selection list.

If someone can point out what I've screwed up, much obliged.

Playing blu-ray disks on Fedora

Is it possible to play commercial blu-ray disks on Fedora?  (I expect
of course that I'd have to install some RPMFusion software, and even
'other' software off the net).

If it is possible at all, are there external (USB) blu-ray drives
which are better than others?

Thanks a lot for help and info! 
One more thing i would like to clarify (as i am new to EFI stuff):
is it possible to have a boot media with live isos (like an usb stick) for both
EFI and non-EFI systems? (i was wondering if just adding the /boot/efi part from
a system with a corresponding grub.conf would be enough to being bootable by 
both
legacy and UEFI only systems)

Thank you!

RFC: Multiboot Guide

2015-05-31 Thread Pete Travis
Hi All,

There's regularly questions here, and around the internet (ie ask.fp.o)
about dual booting Fedora with Windows systems, or other Linux systems,
or OSX.  To address the more common questions, the Fedora Docs team has
written a Multiboot Guide[1].

The guide is intended to help set up a multiboot system in a functional
way, or to help get to a more functional state if needed.  For the most
part, we've tried not to make it intimidatingly complex, and I hope that
it will aid you in most multibooting situations.

As with all of Fedora's documentation, feedback from readers is crucial
to ensuring the quality of the work.  Please use the guide, and if you
find questions unanswered or answers unclear, reply here or use the
'multiboot-guide' component of the Fedora Documentation product on

Are you running under mock?  Maybe chroot is preventing remote builds?


No, this is an ordinary rpmbuild.

I'm shocked that the person who thought of this thinks it's better.

The problem is that the vast majority of people only have one network
interface and don't really care about the under-the-hood specifics. They
just know that "ethernet interface" == "eth0" and has been for over 20
years now.

And then some people with multiple interfaces -- such as myself -- aren't
actually seeing the predictable interface naming for some reason or
another. I have a Ceton InfiniTV card, and the driver exports access to it
via a virtual network interface. Sometimes this interface is p5p1, and
sometimes it's p5p2. This means that my firewall was occasionally working
but mostly broken, and at the time the documentation was seriously lacking
(trust me: I looked) and no one either here or on the MythTV list was able
to troubleshoot my problem. So I had to disable my firewall in order to use
the card.

In the long-term this might be a good feature, but the roll-out was
completely botched. If you have multiple systems for assigning interface
names, DO NOT DEFAULT TO THE ONE THAT WILL BREAK MILLIONS OF LEGACY SCRIPTS
AND CONFUSE EVERYONE. Use the one that's backwards compatible and works for
the majority of users, and give people with complicated (i.e.,
multi-interface) systems the option to use the new system.

There might be wiki pages that explain all this, but wiki pages can be
hard to find and often get lost and unmaintained, so I wrote a guide
instead.  It doesn't explain the individual files at the moment
(although there is some copy in the sources for it) because it's
information that you don't really need to get the system going, and I
didn't want to overwhelm new users. I'll look at adding the info in an
appropriate section.

Until then, grubx64.efi is the actual grub second stage binary,
MokManager.efi is for signature management, shim is the part that is
signed and allows SecureBoot to work.

As I've explained in the paragraph you immediately quoted afterwards, during  
rpmbuild "ps" shows distcc getting invoked. So, distcc is being invoked from  
rpm. Except that it's not distributing the builds:

I've got distcc configured for 10 concurrent builds. 4 local, 6 distributed  
to another host. I see ten distcc processes on the local machine during the  
rpmbuild, /var/log/messages on the other host shows nothing – it logs  
distcc server activity otherwise – and the local host appears to be running  
only four concurrent compiles.

As I recall, distcc involves running distcc instead of gcc.  Do the RPM

I used cut&paste on the name from under /usr/lib
to make sure I didn't get it wrong :-).

My theory is that systemd sets it manually despite
any udev rules, and the DumpCore=no setting
in /etc/systemd/system.conf is what really
turned it off (there appears to be no documentation
anywhere of what the heck DumpCore means to
systemd, but someone suggested doing it in
addition to setting kernel.core_pattern as the
last thing in /etc/sysctl.conf and one of those
two seemed to work).

Strange, Are you misnaming the file?

I can override a setting in "/usr/lib/sysctl.d/" using a same-named
file in "/etc/sysctl.d/" either by setting the variable to a different
value or by symlinking the file to "/dev/null".

Furthermore, from "man sysctl.d":

If the administrator wants to disable a configuration file supplied by
the vendor, the recommended way is to place a symlink to /dev/null in
the configuration directory in /etc/, with the same filename as the
vendor configuration file.

That's because you've moved from one "predictable" scheme to another...

em1 is a name assigned by biosdevname where "em" stands for "embedded"
(although I've seen an "ethernet on motherboard" explanation) and the
generic name is "em". The other biosdevname option is
"pp where the first "p" stands for "pci".

eno1 is a name assigned by udev where "en" stands for ethernet and "o"
for onboard. From "man systemd.link":


NamePolicy=
An ordered, space-separated list of policies by which the interface
name should be set. "NamePolicy" may be disabled by specifying
"net.ifnames=0" on the kernel command line. Each of the policies may
fail, and the first successful one is used. The name is not set
directly, but is exported to udev as the property "ID_NET_NAME", which
is, by default, used by a udev rule to set "NAME". If the name has
already been set by userspace, no renaming is performed. The available
policies are:

"kernel"
If the kernel claims that the name it has set for a device is
predictable, then no renaming is performed.

"database"
The name is set based on entries in the udev's Hardware Database with
the key "ID_NET_NAME_FROM_DATABASE".

"onboard"
The name is set based on information given by the firmware for
on-board devices, as exported by the udev property
"ID_NET_NAME_ONBOARD".

"slot"
The name is set based on information given by the firmware for
hot-plug devices, as exported by the udev property "ID_NET_NAME_SLOT".

"path"
The name is set based on the device's physical location, as exported
by the udev property "ID_NET_NAME_PATH".

"mac"
The name is set based on the device's persistent MAC address, as
exported by the udev property "ID_NET_NAME_MAC".


AFAIR, there are more naming options, but these are the ones that I do remember:

If a card has an ID_NET_NAME_ONBOARD value, it'll be called "eno".

If a card doesn't have an ID_NET_NAME_ONBOARD value but has an
ID_NET_NAME_SLOT value, it'll be called "ens".

If a card doesn't have an ID_NET_NAME_ONBOARD value or an
ID_NET_NAME_SLOT value but has an ID_NET_NAME_PATH value, it'll be
called "enps".

If a card doesn't have an ID_NET_NAME_ONBOARD value, an
ID_NET_NAME_SLOT value, or an ID_NET_NAME_PATH value, its
ID_NET_NAME_MAC value (its MAC address) will be used and it'll be
called "enx".

A wifi card's name starts with "wl".

You can disable the udev ifnames by:

1) Setting "net.ifnames=0" on the kernel cmdline

2) Overriding "/usr/lib/systemd/network/99-default.link"

# cp /usr/lib/systemd/network/99-default.link
/etc/systemd/network/99-default.link
# vi /etc/systemd/network/99-default.link
NamePolicy=kernel
MACAddressPolicy=persistent

3) Masking "/usr/lib/udev/rules.d/80-net-setup-link.rules"

# rm /etc/udev/rules.d/80-net-setup-link.rules (if it exists)
# ln -s /dev/null /etc/udev/rules.d/80-net-setup-link.rules

4) Overriding "/usr/lib/udev/rules.d/80-net-setup-link.rules" (and
"/etc/udev/rules.d/80-net-setup-link.rules", if it exists)

# vi /etc/udev/rules.d/-.rules
[rules similar to the ones that were previously auto-generated as
70-persistent-net.rules]

Nautilus not show "Move to trash" in some case

2015-05-31 Thread Dario Lesca
Stop fixing what is not broken.

Into nautilus / preferences / behavior / Trash, the flag "Include a
Delete command that bypasses Trash" is gone away (why?).

If the file to remove is into a folder into filesyste without user
trash, the right click on this file do not show "Move to trash".

So, in this case, it's not possible to remove the file or folder.

Workaround solution is using Caja (Great file manager!), thunar or open
a termina and delete the file/folder.

Some suggest?

Thanks

I tried it also, and it had no effect for me, the kernel core name
file was still the screwy one systemd creates.

distcc only builds locally when using rpmbuild

2015-05-31 Thread Sam Varshavchik
I've got distcc working correctly, when I run a build myself. I see the  
build jobs getting distributed just fine.


However, when I use rpmbuild, all builds appear to be running locally.

ps shows the maximum number of "/usr/bin/distcc /usr/bin/g++ [options]"  
processes running locally, that I but nothing gets distributed to other  
hosts.


I've got %_smp_mflags set correctly to the number of build jobs that can run  
in parallel, to the sum total of jobs that can be distributed via  
/etc/distcc/hosts. Counting the number of distcc processes, I see that the  
right number of jobs have started, but only the local build jobs are  
running, and nothing gets distributed.


There must me something in the environment that's doing this, because when I  
make the build myself, it works correctly.

I did say "try."

While it's true that you usually override a sysctl value with a
variable=value pair, symlinking a conf file in "/etc/sysctl.d/" to
"/dev/null" overrides a conf file with the same name in
"/usr/lib/sysctl.d/" (I've just tried it) in the same way that
symlinks to "/dev/null" in "/etc/systemd/system/",
"/etc/systemd/network/", and "/etc/udev/rues.d/" override same-named
files in their corresponding libdir.

Which desktop are you using? That probably has more effect on RAM usage
than turning off auditing. As for cpu load, I suspect that audit processes have 
a minimal effect unless you have evidence to the
contrary.

Yes, I'm sick of that crap, too.  eth0 was the ethernet port on all my
computers, until that happened.  Now each computer has a different name
for its ethernet port, thanks do different hardware in each.  And some
have two wildly different names for ethernet ports in the same box.  And
now, somehow, I'm expected to know which is which.  As if I can remember
what hardware is in which box, in which board?!

In most cases, in the past, those of us who had more than one ethernet
port, simply configured eth0 to the specific MAC built into it, and
likewise with eth1, etc.  We only had to do it once per installation.
Only a few people were lumbered with random-MAC ethernet ports, and
quite frankly, I'm sure they're still lumbered with the current system.

Thanks for info! basically what i tried was what you said (with chroot and 
recreate entry with efibootmgr)
but without that reinstall of grub2-efi and shim .. it did not worked well with 
creating the efi entry.. 
so, making sure that i have a uefi only bios, i reinstalled and things worked 
out:

One more clarification i would like:
what is the difference between the loaders?:
gcdx64.efi
grubx64.efi
MokManager.efi
shim.efi
shim-fedora.efi

the shim part i know that is for secure boot (which is disabled in my case).
what are the others? is there a wiki page explaining this files?

Thank you!
Adrian
