I'm wondering if you're missing a step.  In most authoring software,
you have to set the page format to landscape or portrait.  This isn't a
printer setting, it's data about the actual document.  This will be the
default print layout used when you get around to printing it.

e.g. In various word processors, you have style formatting options per
character, per paragraph, and then the whole page.



Hi Tim,

In Approach, when you set up your report, you choose a "paper" size. 
Approach gets it from the default print driver for the page.  You

can set it to whatever the printer supports.

Cups-PDF is not the default printer, so when you print to it, you
have to set the page up again.  "Supposedly" when you save
the Approach file, it saves the new settings, but this is
the exception.  It saves everything else.

The paper is all set up perfectly to print to my OkiData B4350 printer.
If I want to make a PDF, I have to change the printer to
Portrait after it prints.  I can only correct it after it prints.
And if you save the new settings, Approach reverts back to the old
settings.

More annoying than broken, because I have to do it twice and I can't
turn the task over to a regular user.

I suppose I could always edit the form so that everything crams on
a portrait page.  Maybe reduce the font.

Ask Brian.

Or, if you think it is a conflict then change to landscape=false.  It there is 
a conflict
then one would think that would resolve it.  In other words, make changes to 
see if they
have effects and note the change or lack of change.

Yes, so do I.  When you install, or modify, the printer you have the options of 
several
drivers to use.  I'm suggesting you change to Generic CUPS-PDF Printer (w/ 
options) which
*is* included with Fedora.

So, try using that driver instead.

Oh, Wine and discontinued SW involved.  That may make it hard to determine 
where the issue
resides.

Have you tried the different driver?

I'm pressing F12 and manually selecting Fedora, but I did later try to
change the boot order, both with efibootmgr and in the BIOS to no avail.

I can confirm it's the correct UUID for the EFI partition. I have also
reinstalled Fedora after deleting all the superfluous entries... Looks the

As far as I can tell, these are auto entries from the BIOS boot order. When
I press F12 only Fedora and Windows Boot Manager are listed as available
(Or Linpus Lite for the F29 Live USB).

Tried this too, although I used "" instead of escaping, no luck.

I disabled it to remove it as the problem, still won't boot Fedora. Once I
get it working I can mark the efi file (presumably shimx64.efi) as trusted
and re-enable.

Offhand, this looks like the problem. 000E points to Windows. You need
to use `efibootmgr --bootorder 0,E,1` so it boots Fedora first. It's
not strictly necessary to list everything in bootorder, you can just
have one. The idea of populating it fully is to have exactly the
predictable fallback boot behavior the user wants, whatever that is.
e.g. if something with the Fedora bootloader gets nerfed then it'd
boot Windows.

Offhand, looks valid but I can't vouch for either the partition number
or its GUID.

I would use efibootmgr to delete these, they look either suboptimal
(unknown device) or use old paths to grub rather than shim.

If you're not sure you can delete them all, and then do:

# grep efibootmgr /var/log/anaconda/program.log

And you'll see the longest command there is what's used to add the
menu entry. You can just use the same command, although you'll need to
escape the backslashes with backslashes, so the path becomes
\\efi\\fedora\\shimx64.efi

Also, firmware password and UEFI Secure Boot are two different things.
Secure Boot I don't recommend disabling, it's a feature that
cryptographically verifies the bootloaders, the kernel and kernel
modules. If you're building out of tree kernel modules, then it's
understandable to run without Secure Boot but I would still go through
the effort to create your own signing cert, register it in the
firmware, and then use it to sign your modules so that you can enable
secure boot.

Hi,

If I'm in Gnome Terminal (no tmux), anytime I mouse over a URL it's
automatically underlined and I can right-click on it to get a
contextual menu with one of the options being to open the link.
Simple. Perfect.

If I run tmux, and in a tmux window/pane whatever, URLs are likewise
automatically underlined, and yet right-click does nothing. On the one
hand, Terminal clearly recognizes this is a link by underlining it.
But on the other hand something tmux related inhibits that contextual
menu.

Any ideas either how to fix this or if you think it's a bug? I'm kinda
inclined to file an RFE type bug upstream because it's pretty
aggravating; but if there's some work around I haven't discovered
that'd be even better.

then

[root@f29bk ~]# lpoptions -p Cups-PDF

printer-state=3 printer-state-change-time=1556084401 printer-state-reasons=none
printer-type=8450124 printer-uri-supported=ipp://localhost/printers/Cups-PDF

So, now any file printed *without* specifying orientation will be printed as 
landscape.

The important thing to remember is "Application Defaults" will override the 
printer defaults.

An example of this is Thunderbird.  Its print dialog defaults to "Portrait" and 
will
override the default setting.



Hi Ed,

Thank you!

# lpoptions -p Cups-PDF

job-hold-until=no-hold job-priority=50 job-sheets=none,none

printer-state-reasons=none printer-type=8450124

I see both
landscape=true  and
orientation-requested=4

I wonder if they conflict?

Wouldn't that depend on what you're trying to print?

Sure, if you're trying to print plain text, then I can see you'd need
to set your preference.  But if you've got some kind of document that's
already laid out in a landscape aspect, wouldn't it print that way, by
default?


When I change Lotus Approach report from my B4350 printer
(Letter, Landscape) to Cups-PDF, it changes my paper to
A4 and Portrait.  I fixed the A4, but now I am working
in the Landscape.

As it stands, I have to print once with Cups-PDF, go into
design and switch the page to Landscape, then print again.
Saving the Approach settings does not help.  I have to
do this over and over and over.  Pain in the neck!

fedora 29 suspend/hibernate not working (SOLVED)

2019-04-24 Thread t_pol
Hi List,

I'd like to share my experience in solving the suspend/hibernate problem
on my new laptop HP PAVILION 15-cs0989nl (I've read some post on the
internet regarding this argument).

The laptop has a "NVIDIA GEFORCE card" as well as an 
"Intel Corporation UHD Graphics 620 (rev 07)".

After the new Fedora 29 Installation the system automatically loaded
drivers "nouveau" for the NVIDIA card.

Analyzing the logs after an unsuccessful suspend command I've noticed
a number of messages regarding this driver, so I've decided to
blacklist it putting the following in the file /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf

blacklist nouveau
options nouveau modeset=0

and adding the command:

rd.driver.blacklist=nouveau

to /etc/default/grub in the line starting with "GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="
and then recreating the grub.cfg with

grub2-mkconfig -o /boot/efi/EFI/fedora/grub.cfg

Last thing I did was to disable safe boot in BIOS Setup.

That's it. Right now both suspend and hibernate work like a charm.

Hope this could help someone.

Ciao

Re: UEFI boot with BIOS password, am I screwed?

2019-04-24 Thread Richard Shaw
While I had to run it through the shredder I finally sat down and went
through all the passwords I've ever used and figured it out :)

I turned off Secure Boot but it still won't boot Fedora.

I finally figured out I had to use -v to get what I wanted from efibootmgr:

BootCurrent: 0001

BootOrder: 000E,0001,0003,2001,2002,2003

Boot2001* EFI USB DeviceRC
Boot2002* EFI DVD/CDROM RC
Boot2003* EFI Network   RC

I'm thinking the  is the old Fedora installation from the bad HD and
0003 is the new entry but I've never seen "PciRoot" before. And still none
of this is intuitive, there's like 6-10 efi files and I don't know which
one I should use of it it even matters...

Or maybe it's the opposite. I'm at work so I can't check but I
believe b2fa98e2-c3c8-4798-8faa-1e424d313bb1 is the PARTUUID of the new
drive, and there's other entries with the same UUID with RC at the end
which I assume are "detected" entries.

Thanks,
Richard

You haven't said which version of Win10 your friend has, but note that
RDP requires at least Win10 Pro.

My friend use virt-manager spice console, and the drive is a 7.2 rpm
