What about, hard drives roasting on an open fire?  (Yes, I did sing it
in my head to /that/ song.)

A strong degausser is a bit of an esoteric thing, and I don't think I'd
trust my CRT degaussing wand to be strong enough.  I've pulled drives
apart before, but that's a lot effort (tiny odd screws, sometimes
seriously jammed into place), then bent the disc platters to buggery.

While seriously annoying and time-consuming to do, it was also quite
satisfying to mangle the bugger to death.

Do you test it from time to time?  I wonder about the longevity of flash
drives, particularly when in a static-creating environment.  I know some
don't last long very well, but whether that's just down to self-decay,
or accelerated by external factors, I don't know.

So, then, the drive is DeD dead 



Sector 38254000is dead. Possibly some others, too...
You can continue secure erase (assuming the erase program can ignore the
error), but you're not guaranteed that the data will be wiped from dead
sectors.
It's very hard to retrieve data from those, but may be possible with
specialized equipment.

If you're wiping mostly for privacy and there are few dead sectors,
you're probably fine. If you have very sensitive data and/or many bad
sectors, you need to take extra measures to destroy the data.

NetworkManager-1.0.4-0.1.git20150618.8cffaf3bf5.fc22 finally showed up in 
updates-testing for me.
I tested it, and it is broken.

See, https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2015-10143  and note the 
"Details".

FWIW, this issue is more suited for the testing list than here IMO.

Well, my question for for Ed, since he was not having any issues.
So, perhaps the difference might have been in the versions of NM
being used by Ed and yourself?


I knew the question was for me.  However, I chose not to respond since the 
question was irrelevant owing to the differences in the versions of 
NetworkManager being run as noted in previous message in the thread.


I kinda guessed that, but I still wonder if NM is going to work
differently to what people have been used to and could cause
problems in configurations and scripts if the behavioral changes
become engraved in future releases of NM.

Well, YOUR mind might be great, mine is a bit fuzzy and wonky!


i carry around a pny 64G0 usb memory with legal docs, birth and death
certificates, passwords, moz bookmarks and address book in moz format,
html, and text, along with a few other important files. all of which
is in an encrypted file.

yes, i well remember how to decrypt file. ;-)

a long time friend uses his cellphone for his carry around 'vault'
as he calls it.

i went to KeePassX.org to read what it is about. and liked what i
read, so i now have KeePassX installed on my 64 bit tower to read
up on later.


Good deal! It seems to have a pretty wide availability.


thanks for passing that along.

it is a shame that it is not available in 32 bit so i could install
it on my 32 bit laptop. :-(


It's pretty easy to build from the source tarball if you've ever done
that sort of thing before. If not, I can try to build it for you. Email
me offline with your laptop's config (OS, desktop, etc.) and I'll see
what I can do.


Actually, there IS a 32-bit version available via dnf/yum/whatever. Not
sure which repo it's in, but looking at kernel.org's stuff, I see the
RPM at


http://mirrors.kernel.org/fedora/releases/22/Everything/i386/os/Packages/k/keepassx-0.4.3-11.fc22.i686.rpm

So you could:

$ cd /tmp
	$ wget 
http://mirrors.kernel.org/fedora/releases/22/Everything/i386/os/Packages/k/keepassx-0.4.3-11.fc22.i686.rpm

$ sudo dnf install keepassx-0.4.3-11.fc22.i686.rpm

If you want to build it from the tarball, you need the C++ tools,
the qt-devel RPM, the libXtst-devel RPM and probably others as well. You
could also install the source RPM and hope it pulls in all the
requirements.

I'm not sure if that was addressed to me, but yes, I use

Well, my question for for Ed, since he was not having any issues.
So, perhaps the difference might have been in the versions of NM

Dunno which desktop you're using, Bob, but under XFCE, I think you can

Applications Menu-->Settings-->Appearance-->Fonts tab

Change your fonts and stuff there. Keep in mind this will affect ALL of
your desktop settings. I use

Sans 10
Enable anti-aliasing checked
Hinting: Full
Sub-pixel order: None
Custom DPI enabled at 96 DPI

Your mileage may vary.

The installation should be quite straightforward:
1. Partition your remote computer's drive(s)
2. Install Fedora there - for example using systemd-nspawn

How do I do that? (Last I recall this was a tool one had to boot into,

FWIW The Dell OBD extended memory check passed.

I get an "updating bad block inode" on every single partition...? But
otherwise nothing, despite doing a thorough non-destructive write scan.
(Is this indicative of a real problem? Or just because I can never do a
clean shutdown?)

Fan and exterior temp seem okay. HW sensors report the CPU cores around

I did figure out the appropriate incantations to get the network to be
active on boot (sshd - 'systemctl enable sshd' was comparatively easy).
I'm seeing the same behavior with ssh login as with local; it appears to
accept the password, but I never get a shell. (If it wasn't a brand
spanking new install - and happening for root also - I would suspect
something being run via .bashrc...)

Either will work, although I advise against it...  :^)

For some reason the "tech support" people at Hewlett-Packard don't

AFAICT, the factory-default is "admin" and no/empty password.

Its users manual is here:
http://h10032.www1.hp.com/ctg/Manual/c04204791


 I got it myself from the installation manual six
months ago and immediately set my own password which I have used
since then, so I no longer remember what the default is.  (It's
really a longer story than that, but)  So I was just hoping
that someone here might know what that default password is.  Mine
is an Officejet Pro 8620, but perhaps some other, recent HP printer
default password would work.


BTW: AFAICT, sw-wise all HP 86xxs (8610, 8620, 8630, ...) are very 
similar, so his question should also apply to these.



(Yes, I've already tried various versions of "admin", an empty
password, and others, but just not anything which has worked.)


as he states, he has gone thru various 'incantations' to get into
printer, but all are failing and no user on centos list has same
printer to be able to help.


#1 item to try would be to try on the printer's touch-display. Most 
settings are available there, too. I never tried this on my printer for 
hopefully understandable reasons, but if desperate, I'd try a factory 
reset (cf. the manual).


My wild guess on the cause of "I know my passwd is correct, but can't 
log into it anymore" would be "firewalls" (on computer, router and 
printer) or problems related to the basic network setup (dhcp, https, etc).



thanks again for your response.

Welcome, nevertheless, I doubt my response will be of much help :(

Ralf

same printer and posted a problem.

as he states, he has gone thru various 'incantations' to get into
printer, but all are failing and no user on centos list has same
printer to be able to help.

so far, there has been 25 posting to thread with no solution, so,
i thought that if there was a fedora user who had same printer, you
might have an answer.

it is not that i am tired of reading thread. ;-) it is that Ken seems
a bit lost and desperate for help and he is not finding any. therefore,
to try to help, i posted to this list.

so, if either of you would pass along an answer, i will pass it along
to Ken on the centos thread.

also, i presume that his email address is correct and i "Bcc:" to him.

thanks again for your response.

SOLVED - Re: Google Cloud print stopped working after reboot

2015-06-23 Thread Gary Stainburn
I still don't know why this happened but I have managed to get everything 
working again.

The solution was to go into 'systemsettings' and delete every printer before 
then re-running thr GoogleCloudPrint import routine 

/usr/share/cloudprint-cups/setupcloudprint.py

After doing this all printers were set up again within the system and all 
worked fine.
