Would tell us most of the important hardware and software configs. More detail 
is
found in /var/log/Xorg.0.log and/or ~/.local/share/xorg/Xorg.0.log (whichever is
newer if you have both).

Finding the stats on my video card

2022-11-02 Thread Joe Zeff
There's a fairly old game that I've been playing on my laptop that I've 
just installed on my desktop.  It runs, but slowly.  Checking, I need a 
CPU that runs at at least 2 GH (Mine runs at 2.83) and has at least 2 GB 
of RAM.  (I have 8)  The only other possibility is that my video card 
might not be up to it, but I don't remember how to check that.  Any 
pointers in the right direction will be appreciated.

And that's why you also report the alert to Bugzilla, so that it can be 
properly investigated and corrected.

Re: Can I see an iMac drive with a Live USB?

2022-11-02 Thread Roger Heflin
hdparm has a secure erase option on it that tells the disk to erase
the disk via a sata command.

I am going to bet it will erase it faster and more completely than using dd.

Yes -- good prices and good screens.  I use Fedora on an iMac with a hybrid
drive (SSD+rotating) where SSD has failed.  I have also used iMacs with
external
firewire drives after the internal drive failed.

There are also kits that convert an iMac to a monitor.

Apple systems mostly have good reliability, so if you are a business it is
cost effective to use them until they break or don't meet requirements
and then buy new ones.

Who should be owner of /run/systemd/users/1000?? root or 1000?

2022-11-02 Thread Michael D. Setzer II via users
On one of my machines I noticed a bunch of little pop up 
messages that don't say much but say opps and that it is 
probable automatically being reported.

In looking at messages it shows a lot of things about 
seline and seems linked to /run/systemd/users/1000

Looking at directory, see it showing the owner as root 
and not 1000?

cd /run/systemd/users/
[root@setzconote users]# ls -l
-rw-r--r--. 1 root root 257 Oct 31 08:42 1000

looking at message log it says to run this command.
sealert -l c9b47966-9b7c-4eeb-a209-b8b4034caba9
SELinux is preventing dbus-daemon from read access on the file 1000.

*  Plugin catchall (100. confidence) suggests   **

If you believe that dbus-daemon should be allowed read access on the 1000 file 
by default.
Then you should report this as a bug.
You can generate a local policy module to allow this access.
Do
allow this access for now by executing:
# ausearch -c 'dbus-daemon' --raw | audit2allow -M my-dbusdaemon
# semodule -X 300 -i my-dbusdaemon.pp

Ditto, as well.



Todd, I do not know how old those iMacs are, but some (lampshade) had
the drives on the base while others have it behind the motherboard
behind the monitor. And some also had the drive soldered to the
motherboard.



I didn't even think about that. Apple sticks to the same design for
basically everything for so long I hadn't considered that when I
originally replied to Todd.

I met with the customer today.  She bought a Mac Books instead
of repairing or replacing her iMac.  She plans just to run
the iMac until bricks.

Soldered to the motherboard?  Does Micky Mouse know about this?

Well, I can't promise it will have great effect, although I know from
the design and implementation discussions that Google takes it
seriously, and Microsoft implements it.  So it's just a suggestion for

We do, but it's not recommended, and definitely inferior to
implementation in the MTA unless the Mailman host is basically an
administrative domain to itself.  I believe Fedora uses OpenDKIM, and
the same folks provide OpenARC at Https://Trusteddomainproject/Openarc.
