Alienware M17 & Fedora - wireless card compatibility?
Hi all; I'm considering the purchase of an Alienware M17 to run Fedora on. Does anyone know if it's compatible with Fedora? Specifically the wifi card choices: I have 2 options: - Qualcomm QCA6174A 802.11ac 2x2 MU-MIMO WiFi and Bluetooth 4.2 or - Killer Wireless 1550 2x2 AC and Bluetooth 5.0 Thoughts?

The problem is that gedit crashes, or my desktop crashes, losing all the notes. Sometimes I have ten or so documents of differing degrees going at once, and when it crashes (like it just did again), I lose everything. I need something with some kind of temporary autosave capability, like vim, but graphical. I'm aware of the dozens of console editors (I use vim virtually everywhere), but need something small like gedit, without the bulk and complexity of libreoffice. Thanks, Alex Hi Alex, I use leafpad a ton. But as fan as I know, it does not have an autosave capability. Leafpad does have CR+LF save capability for when I have to read something on a Windows comupter. For programming I use geany. It might be overkill though. Geany works well over ssh X11 connection across the Internet. -T ___ users mailing list -- users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to users-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: https://getfedora.org/code-of-conduct.html List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/users@lists.fedoraproject.org

IIRC you aren’t able to set a password into the field that is pre-hashed. You
either need to enable password-migration mode, or you should supply the
plaintext password and the server hashes it for you. Does that fix the issue?

Re: LIghtweight editor to replace gedit?
> Gedit surely do have autosave capabilities. > You can also try xed, which looks nearly exactly the same. Yes, thank you. I had actually forgotten about the autosave capabilities with gedit because it requires that you at least first save the document once, giving it a filename to autosave. I've started to use notepadqq and it seems pretty good. ___ users mailing list -- users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to users-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: https://getfedora.org/code-of-conduct.html List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/users@lists.fedoraproject.org
Re: OT: F29+ alternatives to evolution for fetching and sending e-mails with multifactor authentication
Hi, Thank you very much for these pointers! I had no idea that I should look for OAuth2. I have been trying to work through them over the past two days and came up with these two links that may be helpful: http://mmogilvi.users.sourceforge.net/software/oauthbearer.html However, I don't know how this would work for non-gmail account users. Any suggestions? We have tokens issued using a google authenticator and that is what has to be entered (as long as the token is valid). but it is not clear to me where I enter this, and how. Also, I am not quite sure how to send mail (I use sylpheed, smtp) but how do I get this to work in this sort of multi-factor authentication environment? I came across the following: https://softwarerecs.stackexchange.com/questions/30189/looking-for-a-cli-e-mail-sender-that-supports-oauth-2-0 but I am not sure how to get this to work. Btw, are there alternatives to fetchmail that support OAuth2? Many thanks again for any help and best wishes!

Re: Laptop overheating on Fedora 29
Something in the graphics driver? Probably. What GPU does it have? 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: NVIDIA Corporation GK106GLM [Quadro K2100M] (rev a1) 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation 4th Gen Core Processor Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 06) Is the same driver being used on Fedora and Ubuntu? (I'm reaching here). Sorry, I do not have the information about what driver was used on Ubuntu. The test was done by a colleague few days ago and they did use the drivers that were available on stock installation of Ubuntu 18.10. The GPU is Nvidia so it would be interesting to see if Ubuntu is using the proprietary Nvidia driver while Fedora has the Nouveau driver. Try "lsmod|grep -i nvidia". You could also install the Fedora Nvidia driver from RPMfusion to see if it makes a difference. I have been using the Nvidia drivers from RPMFusion from a week or so. Since then, generally, the laptop does not overheat. Occasionally, I have observed overheating. - Sudheer S ___ users mailing list -- users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to users-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: https://getfedora.org/code-of-conduct.html List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/users@lists.fedoraproject.org
