No sound on Fedora 21
I am running Fedora 21 and after the latest updates I have no sound on my machine. aplay -l shows no sound cards. Mixers such as alsamixer show only Pulseaudio master and the output is full. Can someone suggest how to debug this ?

Thanks for a GREAT update to 23!
Thanks for a GREAT update to 23! For the first time in a long while, I had very few issues upgrading from earlier Fedora releases to the latest version. Over the weekend, I updated two computers from F21 to F23 with only a few minor issues. The F21 laptop was installed from F21 media a few months ago and the update was smooth except for changing the way the mouse operated -- I had to click on the window bar to raise windows (now fixed). The F21 desktop has been repeatedly updated since about F13. Most previous updates were painful. This time, I had to remove a few programs including google-earth, then the update worked seamlessly. (I have yet to test Xilinx, Arduino, Maple, and STM tools.)

However, it is somewhat less safe, the system is in an inconsistent state until you reboot, with no easy way to distinguish which processes are using new and old versions of libraries. Also, and best, if you're using btrfs, systemd will make a snapshot, and so you'll get either an upgraded system... or if there's a problem, no change. Unfortuantely, there are _other_ problems with btrfs, so that's not the default (or recommended). Possibly we'll have this same functionality with LVM in the future. -- Matthew Miller Fedora Project Leader -- 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?

No sound on Fedora 21 solved
I figured out what was wrong. After the recent updates I changed the grub installation to grub on my Debian partition. Everything seemed to go well until todays sound problems. lsmod showed there were NO sound modules loaded and uname -a showed a strange kernel version. I reinstalled grub from Fedora. Sound is back, lsmod shows all the needed sound modules loaded. Now there is another minor problem. With this version of grub running, grub.cfg does not show my Windows 7 installation...just Fedora and Debian. Help ? Thanks I am running Fedora 21 and after the latest updates I have no sound on my machine. aplay -l shows no sound cards. Mixers such as alsamixer show only Pulseaudio master and the output is full. Can someone suggest how to debug this ?

gnuplot help
Dear Fedora users, Any gnuplot experts out there. I have a situation which I can plot using plotshare http://plotshare.com/index.ws/plot/338384601 but when I run it in regular gnuplot, I get mistakes. I would like to improve the script in order to better show the graphics. I copied the style from http://plotshare.com/index.ws/plot/672940882 The only one that works is the following one: http://plotshare.com/index.ws/plot/858779550 I wanted to change it, put the dates and the opponent and make it look like a bar graph. I tried modifing the code and add the style used by Marco F. a fellow Fedora/open source user: http://www.techrepublic.com/blog/linux-and-open-source/how-to-handle-time-based-data-with-gnuplot/ But I cannot get it to work. I am using Fedora 22 in case it is important. BTW(the awk scripts that some list members helped me with have me setup and ready for the start of the soccer season) Now I just want to show our players to get ready and show them the goal differential and see visually what we need to work on.

If you are booting from BIOS (not EFI), go into the directory /boot/grub2, and run grub2-mkconfig -o grub.cfg, that should create a grub.cfg that has all recognizable OS partitions on your system. If you are running EFI, someone else will have to help as my knowledge of that is almost nothing. -- 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?

Then I noticed that I was booting to a old Fedora 22 kernel (4.0.1-100. Upon investigation I found some strange entries in grub.conf. Strange in that there were references to the Fedroa 22 kernel. Removing those reference didn't help. Neither did selecting an older (F21) kernel from the list help, as the system would not boot at all. I was left with a dracut prompt. I lost sound, and all USB support. Plus my network failed to start as it appeared that bridge support was missing. Finally I installed grub again on /dev/sda and now I am booting to 4.1.10-100-f21 as expected and everything works again.

Emmett That's almost identical to what happened to me...except I only lost sound and it only happened after I installed grub from my Debian Sid partition. Once I re-installed it from Fedora, the sound problem disappeared. But then I had no entry in the menu for Windows. So I re-ran grub2-mkconfig and Windows re-appeared!! I'd file a bug except I don't know whether it's a Debian problem or a Fedora problem. There must be some incompatibility between grub in both systems. I guess I'll just leave grub installed from Fedora. I wish there were a better way to handle two partitions of different Linux's. -- 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: Thanks for a GREAT update to 23!
Reading this makes me really happy. I used to make a clean install, but now I think that I'll try an upgrade. When the time comes, I already have Cinnamon Spin 23 and I must say that it works smoothly. Except for Nemo that is failing randomly. But isn't Fedora fault, happened the same and worse on Manjaro.

Re: Thanks for a GREAT update to 23!
Just to join in the fun and dancing: Three machines: one home-assembled desktop (i5, 8GG RAM, etc); two Dell laptops: D630 (Core 2 Duo CPU, 4GB RAM; E6220 - i5 CPU, 8GB RAM). Started w/ the Desktop and made three efforts; on the first, it ended challenging me to remove a perl-DBD-Pg-Test-FC21 package; on the second, to remove google-earth-stable, on the third, it completed correctly. However, on each try, a full download of all necessary packages was necessary, requiring two hours each time (old school Verizon DSL). (Was it necessary to do complete downloads? Couldn't these things have been cached for the next effort?) Having learned the lessons of upgrading the desktop, upgrading the E6220 from F22 to F23 went correctly. The D630 needed to move from F21->F22->F23. The problem there was that on F21, the Postgresql database version is incompatible (don't have the numbers in my head) w/ that of F22 and F23. Somewhere there should be a preamble on the next upgrade iteration that these sorts of things (those PostgreSQL upgrades that require a backup-and-restore) need to be done prior to advancing in Fedora releases. A nuisance (given that I have backups and some experience) that probably took 15 minutes to handle. fyi, MP -- 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?

xorg 1.18 released
I see the official announcement of xorg server 1.18: http://lists.x.org/archives/xorg-announce/2015-November/002655.html Anyone have any clues about when the final release will show up in fedora 23, and vastly more important, when nvidia binary drivers will show up now that 1.18 is official? P.S. I'd vastly prefer to use the nouveau open source driver, but my maxwell card won't talk nouveau unless nvidia releases the firmware in some form nouveau can use, so I'm stuck waiting for nvidia either way :-). -- 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?

You should probably use https://www.changedetection.com and monitor http://www.nvidia.com/object/unix.html for changes to see when they release a new driver. And then you can bug the folks at rpmfusion. -- In reality, some people should stick to running Windows and others should stay away from computers altogether. -- 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?

Hi Antonio, "Marco F. a fellow Fedora/open source user" here. Thanks for your interest in my pieces. It's been a while since I last seriously worked with Gnuplot, so I am not really current about it anymore, and cannot promise anything :-) Whoever is more up to date than me, please step in! This said, my understanding is that the actual code you are trying to make work is NOT the one visible at the plotshare urls you provided, which is only an example. Is this correct? If yes, I (and I think the others too) would need to see the WHOLE gnuplot code and data files that you tried to run, and the complete error message you get. If I'm wrong, please explain. In any case, we'd need to see at least the complete error message, to continue.
