I take it from this by "read-only" you mean you can read the samba share from 
the Linux
side but you can't write. And this has been the case since "forever".  Yes? 

Also, iPhones had no issue until recently.  Yes?

Well, sounds more like a samba configuration issue than anything.  Have you 
looked at the
samba logs at all?

OK. I was thinking of a "swap storm". if the system gets pushed into
heavy swapping (because of too much memory neededfor what is running)
it can slow to a crawl, sometimes taking many minutes to recover once
the memory pressure is relieved.

No, the GUI is still there, it's just on another virtual screen.
Usually you can go back there by doing ALT-F1 or CTRL-ALT-F1.

It doesn't kill your session.  You are switching to a different virtual 
console.  I don't know how wayland uses the consoles, but for X, console 
1 is gdm, console 2 is your session, so use ctrl-alt-f3 to open console 
3.  Use alt-f2 or alt-f1 to find your previous session.

Actually, the first thing that catches my attention is that when I go to 
the password entry box, the system fans really surge.  This suggests to 
me the CPUs are working at or near capacity.


I also see top and ksysguard repeatedly freezing for several seconds.

The system was not responding to any keystrokes or trackball clicks. 
The only remaining options are hard reset and hard power off.

The problem is not memory use.  It is CPU load.

Based on that output, I am not surprised that resetting the password
didn't work. Notice that it's saying permission is denied for
/bin/bash. When you log in as root, are the permissions on /bin/bash
correct? It should be 755:

[🎩1036 bcotton@fpgm ~ ]$ ls -l /bin/bash
-rwxr-xr-x. 1 root root 2187664 May 13 08:18 /bin/bash
[🎩1037 bcotton@fpgm ~ ]$

If not, that's the immediate problem. You can check for other files
with incorrect attributes with the `rpm -Va` command. (See the rpm man
page for more about verification)

This server has been running for several years and has always worked 
until now. It still works when mounted from root except now it comes up 
read-only and the users can't save files to it. We had a messy power 
failure a few days ago but the servers are on an UPS and I had to shut 
them down to save battery charge. Dunno if something happened then but 
that was about when trouble started ...


Any suggestions appreciated,

I accidentally deleted the original email, so I'll reply to this one.

I have used multiple cheap drawing tablets with no problem.  Most (all?) 
just use a standard USB protocol, so they should just work, although I 
can't guarantee that.

I don't know where you got that info from.  I have used a Wacom

about pen drawing tablets anyway, not touch screens.


Maybe it is just the arm images.  Repeatedly told no support for the 
various armv7 based tablets.  Only case where I have been looking at 
tablets.  So I just got a couple wires crossed, as the reason I THOUGHT 
I could work on an arm tablet is that I could work on an Intel tablet...


Sigh.  IETF fried my brain this week.

Yes.

Or make the file 8GB and make it the first swap unit with the physical 
the 2nd so that a large image to suspend would more likely fit.


Suspend doesn't use swap, that's only for hibernate.  I don't think 
hibernate can use a swap file, but I might be wrong.

Samba broken pipe -

2019-07-26 Thread Bob Goodwin

.
This morning I am unable to ssh into the samba server. I get an error: 
"client_loop: send disconnect: Broken pipe" although I am still able to 
access the server files on another connection. Has something changed 
recently limiting me to one connection at a time? Or perhaps another 
problem?

Use gparted from a live image (DVD, USB stick).  Shrink 5 and then
make a new 6 of type swap, and add it to fstab so there are 2 swap
partitions -- both will be used.  Hibernate will only use one, but
the image is compressed, so chances are good that the first one will
be enough.

You can instead shrink 5 and then 4 and move them up and then
enlarge 3, but it will take a lot longer.

It's reported against Gnome Shell and several reports mention cases
that don't involve Evolution, so it appears unlikely to be an Evolution
bug as such.

Well, I would have to put the drive in a USB/sata adapter and run this 
on another system.  That does seem reasonable.


Actually I have seen the resizing used a lot in the Fedora and CentOS 
arm images.  You dd the base image then resize them larger. I do this 
frequently, so I can experiment with Fedora arm images first.  Instead 
of just enlarging, also reduce and move them.


Well, first put in an additional 4GB memory, then play around with 
enlarging swap.

Sorry, my bad.  For example, 
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1633365 and 55 duplicates
listed.  There are others as well.  Virtually all reporters have
uploaded large traceback dumps.  It was reported repeatedly for up to 3

Oh I also wonder about the authentication process page.  Is there a space on 
the page for
both username and password?  If so, does the problem exist if you pick a random 
(invalid)
username and then start typing the password?

If the answer to that question is "yes", then is there any harm in disclosing 
the
institution to see if someone can duplicate the issue?

Nope, its not just you.  This has been an unfixed and critical problem
for 3 Fedora releases.  I'll bet that you have Firefox open at the same
time - that's what does it for me.  There is already a bug filed
against Evolution with a couple of hundred duplicates marked, but no
fix.  There is also a bug filed with Gnome on the problem.


Do you have links?  I've never seen this and I've been using Evolution 
for years.  However, lately I haven't been using a recent Firefox on the 
same computer.  That's a very strange interaction if true.
