usb devices in gnome boxes with windows

2019-02-25 Thread Alessandro
Hi everyone,

I write this post to ask for information about a problem I encounter on
gnome boxes. I tried to install both Windows 7 and Windows 10 ltsb, but
neither of them for having installed Windows guest tools for Spice when I
insert a USB key (usb2, usb3 etc.) and from the settings of boxes I apply
the shared USB stick, this is detected in Windows, but not configured and
therefore remains unusable. I wanted to know if someone has encountered the
same problem and possibly help me to solve it or to virtualize windows is
better to use Virtualbox?

I thank you all

  Hi All;

 I just ordered a Lenovo Thinkpad W540,

 the specs list this:
 Security Chip 2  Security Chip Enabled

 I plan to run Fedora 20 on it. Is this something I should be
 concerned about? Can it be disabled in the bios?

i don't know about that chip, but a few weeks ago, i was down south
 chatting with some military IT contractors, and they told me that in
 most sites they work in, *no* *one* is even allowed into the building
 with a lenovo laptop -- they are considered that insecure/compromised.

no idea if this relates to your security chip question, but i
 thought i'd share that.

  Do you have any details as to why? I plan to run Linux on it, does this
 change things?

 Thanks.  That is enough information to satisfy my curiosity.  Now I'll just
 wait for an update to make the flood cease.

 you can boot with ghes.disable=1 to avoid the log flood for now.

 I second what Sam has said.

 GNOME3 has generated some backlash with its way of working---and not been
 clearly/fully documented such that the preponderance of users can 'get it'.

 If you want this new UI behavior, that's fine, and I could even deal with
 it being the default desktop configuration, requiring me to turn it off
 somewhere.

 But just forcibly enabling it, by default, and giving me no visible
 configuration setting to turn it off, anywhere, and forcing me to root
 around with gconf-editor – this is just rude.

 Or, perhaps all the missing UI configuration settings: this one, focus
 autoraise, and others – perhaps there just wasn't enough time to add the UI
 for these settings, and Gnome 3 replaced Gnome 2 before it was fully cooked.

 Whatever the case may be, I just hope that the “we know best, so here's the
 UI and you're going to like it, because we do, and you won't have any
 alternatives” meme will not survive.



Hi,
in my opinion, Larry is right : the question must be addressed to the Gnome
dev team. But, as long time Fedora / RedHat user, I must agree with Sam :
Fedora *MUST* be filled by default with all the gnome-shell* / gconf* stuff.
To much time spent looking around to customize my desktop

So, my HP Bios is broken?

2011-01-18 Thread Alessandro Boggiano
I was looking into /var/log/messages and I discoverd this! :(

I went on HP site and I found indeed a bios upgrade, but it reports:
Fix/Enhancement: Updates the Computrace Option ROM to verison 889.

So nothing of really useful!! :(

It works quite well, some little problems: no bass, the front mic
doesn't work...  but they look as little thing to me!
Do I need to be worried about this log ?


Well, some X locks up with nouveau (normal and experimental, too), but
this is another story, and another mail... ;)

How can I stop this network scan ( cfg80211) ?

2010-10-07 Thread Alessandro Boggiano
I still have problems with my wlan0 on my HP HDX18.
If I don't run a ping in background I lost the connection every 30 sec
(more or less).
I see these lines in my /var/log/messages:

It sounds to me  like a scanning of the network situation. Is this
correct ? How can I stop it ?
I'm already using eee80211_regdom=IT as option of the module cfg80211.


Thanks!

F13 wifi goes a little crazy (Networkmanager)

2010-09-28 Thread Alessandro Boggiano
I've a strange problem with NetworkManager on my fedora 13.
The system is up-to-date and kernel is 2.6.34.7-56.fc13.i686.PAE.

Basically, every minute I lost the connection on the wireless interface (wlan0),
only for a couple of second, but it's really annoying when I'm using
skype, for example.

The connection is very simple: it's not secured! I don't have a static
ip, so I must use dhcp.
I never had any problem with other versions of fedora on this network.
I have only F13 on this laptop (HP HDX18).

Radeon ATI HD3650 or Nvidia 8600M GT

 If you can try them out with a live usb before buying, that would probably
 be a good thing to do. You can get an F14 desktop livecd from:
 http://alt.fedoraproject.org/pub/alt/nightly-composes/desktop/

 Since we are are the step of building Beta RC images, the live image should
 be a pretty good reflection of what to expect for video support for F14.
 (Though there are still video test days scheduled to try and catch some
 bugs before the general availability release.)

Re: HTML editor under gnome

2010-09-10 Thread Alessandro Boggiano
2010/9/10 Alan J. Gagne alanjga...@gmail.com:
 My girlfriend need an html editor for her ebay auctions.
 She used kompozer under kde on fedora 8.
 Now she switched to fedora 13 with gnome (kde is too slow on his old
 notebook) and she asked me for an editor *LIKE* kompozer.
 She really needs an WYSIWYG editor.

 Any advice, pls?

 She can still use kompozer on fedora 13 with gnome.
 See quote from http://kompozer.net/

 quote
 KompoZer is a GTK application, it has nothing to do with KDE — though it
 can be installed on KDE, too.
 /quote

I saw it: thanks!!! ;)
Really good news!
I tried the tar.gz and, for now, it works very well!
No need of any kde libs!

 As a side note, you can install kde apps to run on the gnome desktop.
I know that, but it's something I don't want to! Never liked that!
The first launched kde app takes too long to start.


Thanks a lot, Alan!

Hello fedora user list :)
I'm glad to have joined this community occasionally in the past year
(since F11 has been released). I really think this is a healthy
community :). Now, with F13, I decided to make the big step from
Kubuntu to Fedora-KDE.
So, today I realized that I have subscribed a couple of fedora
mailing-list about a year ago... but not this one... so... here I am
:).

So far I have only spotted one problem that I haven't been able to fix, yet.
My laptop (a DELL Inspiron 540) has a video card i945 embedded in it.
When I try with my sister's external monitor (that Kubuntu 10.04 was
able to use up to 1280x1024) I can only use it at a maximum of
1024x768. I guess it is a driver problem, but I have no clue about how
to fix it. Is there anyone who has solved this problem and/or knows
how to do that?

Thank you,
Fabio

Re: SyncMaster XL2370

 Hi,

 I've Fedora 11 installed and a new SyncMaster XL2370. Unfortunately the
 maximum screen resolution I can choose so far is 1280 x 720 instead of
 1920x1080 :-(
 Any ideas how I could change this?

 Regards

Re: sound card not detected on FC12 out of the blue

2010-03-07 Thread Alessandro Brezzi

 I downgraded to 2.6.31.5-127 and I still have the same issue. The odd thing
 is that the slider volume control on my keyboard still works in the sense
 that the computer knows to adjust the volume--but it just goes to a dummy
 output device. I notice that the hda-related modules aren't loaded, so I
 tried loading those. No success there, however. It might be useful to note
 that I was trying to get a USB TV tuner to work earlier--in so doing perhaps
 something went wrong with the sound modules.

 Hi Emerson,

 It sounds like you have a kernel issue. Do you remember when the sound
 stopped working? If you do, and you have multiple kernels installed, I
 would try booting the system with an earlier kernel
 (Command line: rpm -qa --last kernel ).

 See if that fixes the sound issue. Good luck,, and let us know (or
 file a bug in bugzilla under kernel)

Hi,
after much searching, I've found a solution for my laptop HP dv3-2130el
sound problem in the Ubuntu forum. The modprobe.d/ structure is different,
so I've modified /etc/modprobe.d/dist-alsa.conf adding the following line:

*options snd-hda-intel model=hp-dv5 enable_msi=1
*
Please, note there are different value for the model= parameter and I've not
found a good source of documentation helping the choice.
Try google with the specific string model of your laptop and sound+linux
The problem here arise from the chip-set being a Family with different
implementation schema; similar products (eg Pavillion dv from HP) may use
different values.
HTP
