Fedora 34, kde, wayland, klipper, no primary selection

2021-04-28 Thread Aleksandar Kostadinov

Hi,

I just upgraded from Fedora 32. Now KDE uses wayland. I configure in 
clipboard settings to sync primary seletion to no avail. Primary 
selection only usable within the same window.


I read on the internet it should be working.

Any ideas?

PS Any idea how to fix kwallet that gives me this after entering my gpg 
key password:


> Encryption error while attempting to save the wallet kdewallet. Error 
code is 53 (Unusable public key). Please fix your system configuration, 
then try again. This error may occur if you are not using a full trust 
GPG key. Please ensure you have the secret key for the key you are using.

mkpasswd

2019-05-15 Thread Aleksandar Kostadinov
Hi,

in Fedora 28 I used the command `mkpasswd` [1] to generate passwords
according to different criteria.  Now in Fedora 30 this command asks for
a password to encrypt for /etc/passwd usage.

Any ideas how do I get back the old `mkpasswd`?

Re: Tip: Xfce 4.13 and panel problems

Thank you for the heads-up! I'm very happy overall with Fedora 30 since
this weekend.

I see bugs mentioned below also should be fixed in testing already.

Re: portable (really) Fedora on stick

2018-05-21 Thread Aleksandar Kostadinov

Hi and thanks for all replies.

The `dracut-config-generic` package did the job with Fedora 28. I'm 
actually building this for a non-technical person. What I did was:


 * install on stick with netinst fedora image (BIOS mode)
 * choose XFCE desktop
 * choose basic layout (without LVM) with ~20GB root partition
** remove flash partition
** create VFAT partition for sharing files with windows (make it first 
partition [*])

 * install dracut-config-generic, codecs and VLC
 * rebuild initramfs
 * set uid= in fstab for the VFAT partition
 * link Documents, Pictures, etc. to the VFAT partition
** disable Firefox disk cache (about:config -> browser.cache.disk) [**]
** make locked memory for target user unlimited in limits.d/memlock.conf 
(default fedora limit might be reasonable for a server but not for a 
workstation)


It looks and works pretty descent. Presently installing on a 32GB USB 
3.0 stick. If said user likes the setup I'll recommend switching to an 
external SSD/NVMe.


Thanks again and have fun!

[**] Without removing FF disk cache youtube videos have been cutting out 
like crazy and data constantly being written to the stick.


[*] I had only one issue. When I put stick into windows 7 it shows "disk 
f:" and asks me to format it. It didn't show the VFAT partition because 
it is third partition in the MBR. I had to use fdisk to just change 
partition numbers. Then boot with install CD in rescue mode to chroot 
into the system, then `grub2-mkconfig > /etc/grub2.cfg` and 
`grub2-install /dev/sdX`.

3.0 stick. It looks like though that you are having EFI and BIOS mode
both supported. Would you share how did you achieve it?



I usually pre-format SSD's, sticks with a "standard" partition layout using
gdisk before installing Fedora.
This was it for this stick - "BIOS" & "EFI" boot partitions.

All my machines have compatibility mode for booting.

F27 was installed on this stick on a machine with EFI but
"BIOS" mode was selected/forced during installation.

I have just re-tested the stick
It will boot on a 10 year old
laptop with dual AMD Althon & only USB2.
Also on Intel i7-6700K machine using "BIOS" mode.

Re: Tainted kernels

2015-05-04 Thread Aleksandar Kostadinov
FYI if you get on oop and then another one, then kernel would show 
tainted by the initial oop. That makes it sometimes hard to report an issue.


In the oops reporter you can see capital letters flags about the 
taintedness of the kernel. There was some doc documented what each flag 
means.


Joe Zeff wrote on 04/28/2015 10:53 PM:

Earlier, I'd asked about what was causing abrt to claim that my laptop's

cause this.  Somebody asked me to check a certain location in /proc,
which turned out not to exist on the laptop.  I'd like to check again,
and check it on my desktop as well because I know the desktop's kernel
is tainted by kmod-nvidia, and that would give me a good way to compare
a known-tainted kernel with my laptop's.  Alas, I've lost the email with
the pointer in it.  If anybody remembers what I'm supposed to check,
please let me know.  Thanx!

MTP vs gvfs?

2015-05-01 Thread Aleksandar Kostadinov

Hello

I installed the proper MTP gvfs backend and now I see phone in nautilus 
and thunar (I'm using XFCE). I can browse device, copy files, etc.


Problem comes when I try to open a photo or another file in a viewer or 
firefox (e.g. to attach file). It just fails without an obvious reason. 
If I copy the file to `/tmp` then I can open but it is stupid that one 
cannot open directly from the phone.


Any ideas what's wrong?

btw it seems google stopped supporting openid 2 auth and now I'm locked 
out of ask.fedoraproject.org

Any idea how to recover my account is welcome as I tried to no avail.

systemctl restart network, VMs and suspend

Hello,

I already filed a bugzilla issue with this [1] but I'd like to know if 
anybody else has troubles with VMs' network after suspend. And if others 
are able to do a "systemctl restart network" successfully.


I mean, am I an isolated case because of some unknown configuration I 
have or is this common?


What I do is:
launch VM
suspend laptop
wake up laptop after awhile (1 hour maybe)
network of VM loses default route
systemctl restart network # fails on both fedora 20 - guest and host

I'll appreciate if somebody else with same experience comments in the 
bugzilla issue directly.

how to report a nouveau bug?

2014-04-20 Thread Aleksandar Kostadinov

Hello,

I want to report a freeze with latest fedora 3.13 kernel just on login 
screen. The issue is not present on the initial kernel coming with 
fedora 20 life CD.


The problem is that when I boot I can't switch to a text console after 
the freeze. I don't have good access to the laptop because it's my 
mother's so I'm wondering what would be the easiest way to collect 
useful information and report it.


btw I think it is nouveau issue because I see some messages realated to 
nouveau just before entering graphics mode.


Perhaps I can boot to the freeze, then reboot into older kernel, and 
collect the log but my there is some risk the log to not be complete due 
to unclean reboot. As well I'm not sure if plain log is enough. I would 
like to file a good bug report from the first attempt to avoid the 
hassle repeating the operation for small details.


Thanks!

Have you used this driver? I can't find it on the linux driver page [1]. 
I see a driver for this printer on the page but it has a different name 
and I was wondering if it would work on fedora 20 before I purchase.


Thanks again!

Hello,

I was wondering if fedora 18 can be used as a PAN network server. I 
tried ask.fedoraproject but my question seems to have been buried:

I'm not sure. Could you file a systemd bug on it?

I tried to explain as thoroughly as possible.

yeah, I think the default is 'lock screen'.


  It is strange because when I opened a bug with
fedora 18, it was decided as won't fix and there was sugested to
configure systemd-logind...


Bug against what? Do you have it handy?


https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=886569


anyways so now laptop suspends but when I
open the lid, it first wakes up and then suspends again. I have to
push power button to wake it up for the second time.


I have seen this myself, but not sure whats causing it.
Might be a systemd issue...


How could systemd be at issue when it does NOT suspend machine if 
xfce4-power-manager is configured to only lock?



Any idea why does that happen and how to fix? btw the machine is
docked while this happens.

Just guessing as I don't know much about XFCE, but thought it had
support for the systemd suspend method. So suggest checking the
systemd suspend configuration. XFCE should be able to tell systemd
to let XFCE fully when to suspend, maybe something is broken.


xfce4-power-manager inhibits systemd and does indeed handle those
events. So, the question here is what the Original poster had the pref
set to. ;) Note that this was fixed in an update, when f18 was
released, xfce4-power-manager did not inhibit systemd, so systemd
handled those things directly. This may be why a change in behavior was
seend.


It is one of he settings of the power options. Personally I make sure
it does not suspend.

fedora18 stopped suspending on lid closed

2013-04-01 Thread Aleksandar Kostadinov
From some time my fedora stopped suspending when lid is closed. I see 
in system log that lid event is detected. So I'm wondering what can be 
the cause.

Suspend works when I choose to suspend clicking on the XFCE power applet.

Pls keep me in cc in replies.

Thanks!
