One thing you can try would be to move /var/cache/dnf/packages.db out of the 
way and then
run "dnf list installed" which will rebuild the db.

I just "tested" this on a VM and the rebuild occurs and everything is normal.

xfdesktop-settings to change Background Image

[Clifford Snow]

Does anyone have the same problem changing imagery when using the
sfdesktop-settings app? It works fine except for trying to select the
astronomy images, then it hangs. It looks like the image size may be wrong.
The astronomy images are also jpg images vs. png for others.

Don't know about F22, which BTW is close to being EOLed.

Actually, the 4.6 kernel problems were fixed with a recent

with update I got from rpmfusion this morning.

I checked this morning, but as I'm in Europe your morning may be
several hours later than mine :-)


To be precise, the fix was done on 7/1 and I verified on 7/2.


Wow, 7th of February. Oh, I see ...

One other issue that may crop up is if you are using secure boot.  RPM
Fusion kernel mod isn't signed that EUFI will accept.  Had to turn off 
secure boot to get my nvidia working.

Well, something like

dnf repoquery -i kmod-nvidia-4.6.3-300.fc24.x86_64-367.27-1.fc24.x86_64  *may* 
do it.  I
say "may" since if you are using akmod they get built locally an you'll see

Packager: None

In that case you'd probably get an related answer by querying akmod-nvidia.

Thanks for the responses. Sorry for the delay, July 4 is the Independence

According to openprinting.org (the keepers of "foomatic), it works
"perfectly":


So does my MS-410d, apparently, but when it wakes up from power-save mode it  
likes to eat the first print job, than start spewing out garbage pages. I  
found out that by unplugging the USB cable and plugging it back in that's  
enough to reset the printer to a good state.


I posted a question on openprinting.org; and I'll ask here too, by chance  
anyone encountered this before.




http://www.openprinting.org/printer/Lexmark/Lexmark-E460dn

They recommend you use the "Postscript-Lexmark" foomatic driver.


That's what CUPS did by itself, when I plugged mine in. Except for waking up  
from power-saving mode, it works fine.

17 listed.

Does anyone know if those drivers would work on Fedora 23 an onward?

Since I have a *very* old Fedora distribution, Fedora 13, the printer
would be supported.

However, I would not want to buy the printer then not have it work
when I install a current Fedora distribution.

Does anyone know how to determine if the Lexmark drivers would work on
the current Fedora distributions, 23 and 24?

Thank you

Well, it looks like there's a linux driver claiming support for Fedora 23.

https://www.rpmfind.net/linux/RPM/fedora/23/s390/f/foomatic-db-4.0-47.20150819.fc23.noarch.html

YMMV, of course...

Lexmark E460DN Laser Printer will it work on Fedora 23 and on?

Thanks Alan
If I try remove xorg-x11-drv-synaptics,  dnf want remove also cinnamon
and mate desktop.
And this is not what I want.
On my system I have these DE installed because some time I must try it
There is another way to disable synaptics driver into Xorg/gnome-shell?
Thanks

Strange messages from sudo dnf repoquery --unsatisfied after upgrade from F23 to F24.

[Stephen Morris]

Hi,

I have issued the command specified in the subject as recommended 
on site https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/DNF_system_upgrade to see if 
there are any old packages that should be removed because they would not 
be working properly anyway, and received the following messages which to 
me make no sense, unless I am completely misinterpreting the message.


The kernel mentioned in the first message is the last of the Fedora 
23 kernels that is still installed after the upgrade to F24, while the 
kernel listed in the 2nd message is the kernel installed by a sudo dnf 
upgrade issued the day after the upgrade to F24. Hence the bottom line 
is both kernels mentioned in the messages are installed, so why is dnf 
reporting that it can't find them?


package kmod-nvidia-4.5.7-200.fc23.x86_64-2:367.27-1.fc24.x86_64 
requires kernel-uname-r = 4.5.7-200.fc23.x86_64, but none of the 
providers can be installed
package kernel-4.6.3-300.fc24.x86_64 requires kernel-core-uname-r = 
4.6.3-300.fc24.x86_64, but none of the providers can be installed

Steve

To be precise, the fix was done on 7/1 and I verified on 7/2.  I'm not sure 
when the
update hit the mirrors.

In my case, it's not that I use it so much, it's just that I decided 
that a one-line script was the easiest way to go.  Also, I've found that 
having that extra line at the end listing grep is confusing to average 
users so I added the second invocation of grep.  Besides, the output is 
much more tidy that way.

Since "pidof" doesn't do the grep, so you need to specify the entire
process name (e.g. "pidof chron" gets nothing, "pidof chronyd" gets the
PID of the chronyd process).

In that sense, your "ps aux | grep | grep -v grep" is a more flexible
in that you only need to know part of the process name. I use it a lot
myself--but not to the point of turning it into a script/utility. :)

On my laptop I have been using the X11 synaptics driver till Fedora24. 
You can get get some info on yours

I also had no touchpad setting available. But messages in the journal

Actually, the 4.6 kernel problems were fixed with a recent update.
I'm running akmod-nvidia and a 4.6 kernel right now with update

Enable the rpmfusion repo and then do "dnf install akmod-nvidia-340",
followed by a reboot. NB: currently version 4.6 kernels are giving
trouble with the Nvidia driver on F24. Don't know about F22, which BTW
is close to being EOLed.

Re: Tumblerd? - Re: Really excessive screen behavior

[Robert Moskowitz]

My calling foul on tumblerd was premature.  Other than eating up one 
CPU, it was not causing the 'screensaver' problems.  I still get it once 
in a while, but not like I was getting with the 4.4.13 kernel.  I did 
kill tumblerd; I was viewing some CDs with wedding pictures via gthumb 
yesterday.

Tumbler appears to be something pulled in by XFCE.  It's a dbus 
service for creating thumbnails, so something must be calling it. I 
would think that's separate from your screen problem.


So it seems.



It sounds like there's a graphics driver issue.  What graphics chipset

Not really; I would have to install one.  I could boot from a liveCD 
with GNOME, but I do have real work to do while I am testing...




You keep mentioning QEMM.  Do you really mean qemu?


Brain fried.  Yes QEMU.  It has been a long time since running 
Quarterdeck's qemm on a 386 to get access to all that extra memory. :)

Ah, yes, and you'd need to do that as well if you put them somewhere
else. I keep forgetting all the little bits I have to do to satisfy
SELinux. Comes with getting old, I guess.

Symlinking works fine too, though I had to do a restorecon on
/var/lib/libvirt/images after making the link.

If you are using libvirt and qemu, then typically VM disk images end up
in /var/lib/libvirt/images, but you can stick them wherever you want
when you create them or move them and change the XML files in
/etc/libvirt/qemu.

No video from Gigabyte GT710 graphics card

[David Aldrich]

Hi

I have just fitted a Gigabyte GT710 graphics card to a machine running Fedora 
22.  The monitor is connected to the DVI-D port of the card.

When the system boots the BIOS messages appear on the monitor, but as soon as 
the system starts Fedora the monitor goes blank.

Any suggestions on how to fix this please?

Best regards

David

Re: yum update issue..

[bruce]

oh...

for me..

dmesg | grep rtl

returns rtl188ee

modprobe rtl8188ee installs

I had renamed the files for the rtl :
   /lib/firmware/rtlwifi/rtl8192cfw.bin
   /lib/firmware/rtlwifi/rtl8192cfwU_B.bin
   /lib/firmware/rtlwifi/rtl8192defw.bin

and removed the rtl using modprobe

I then, via yum, completed the update, which gave a successful
update/install, and also installed the new kernel-firmware.

a modprobe rtl8188ee appears to have given wifi.. and i don't have the
rtl8188-firmware in the list of kernels..

rpm -qa | grep kernel

this is all on centos 6.5 system (by the way...)

I have a centos 6.5 box with a yum update error. (I know, this is fed,

The laptop runs kernel for elrepo, to be able to use the builtin wifi.

The update process, was the same as usual, as root, run "yum update"
never had an issue prior to this.

The error is:

so my question..  how/what do I need to do to resolve the error, and
still perfom the updates and not screw up the wifi.

By the way, in the event the wifi does screw up, I've got old spare usb
wifi dongles, but I'd prefer to be able to use the onbard wifi. The
laptop is a toshiba satellite

Thanks for any pointers!


Sort of 'me too.'  I have a rarely used Compaq 32-bit laptop running SL6 
with the elrepo kernel-ml (3.10-ish) to get TV tuner support.  I took it 
to a place with only wifi internet at the end of May.  The wifi worked 
for two days and then went dead.  Yesterday, with ethernet, I updated 
and wifi came back.  I see that a new default kernel was installed at 
around the time it went away.


I thought I used to use the kernel-ml-firmware, but found only 
kernel-firmware installed, with a conflict when I tried adding ml.


'yum erase kernel-firmware; yum install kernel-ml-firmware' worked, but 
I saw no difference after a reboot.  Reversed the order, still no 
difference, and still ok.


The iwl3945 firmware is in its own package.

Tumbler appears to be something pulled in by XFCE.  It's a dbus service 
for creating thumbnails, so something must be calling it.  I would think 
that's separate from your screen problem.


It sounds like there's a graphics driver issue.  What graphics chipset 
do you have?  Or possibly a window manager issue.  Could you try out a 
different desktop for a while and see if it still happens there?

Also, the output of "aplay -l".
