Fedora 30 - setting IP addresses

[Kevin Wilson]

HI all,
I had installed Fedora 30 and
 /etc/network-scripts/ is empty, there are no ifcfg-eth* files.

In Fedora 29, I had set eth0 to be a dhclient interface by editing
/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0
(or /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-enp182s0f1)
and setting
BOOTPROTO=dhcp
...
ONBOOT=yes

How can I achieve similar outcome in Fedora 30 ?

Regards,
Kevin

Fedora 30, BootLoaderSpec and generating entries under /boot/loader/entries

[Kevin Wilson]

Hi all,

I had installed Fedora 30,  on a dual boot machine which has a second
partition with Fedora 28.
Fedora 30  comes by default with a new boot loader spec.

I found under /boot/loader/entries/ the following:

ls /boot/loader/entries/

ec1b8b7719964c8b9a1d8db430c63fd6-0-rescue.conf
ec1b8b7719964c8b9a1d8db430c63fd6-5.0.9-301.fc30.x86_64.conf0

I want to be able to boot by default into Fedora 28.

Is there a way by some utility to generate entries under
/boot/loader/entries/ for the
Fedora 28  and choose Fedora 28 as the default ?

Or should I disable the boot loader spec in order to boot to Fedora 28
on this machine ?

Regards,
Kevin

Adding and removing a user in F28

[Kevin Wilson]

Hi, all.

On F28, when I am running
useradd test10
A new folder is generated:
/home/test10/

But when I run:
userdel test10
this folder remains.

This same is when
adduser test11
and them
userdel test11

/home/test11 remains.

Is this an expected behaviour ?
Is there a way to cause the home folder of a user to be removed when
removing a user ?

Changing the LABEL of an iso9660 file system

[Kevin Wilson]

Hello,
I have a USB stick on which I had in the past an Ubunutu installatilon.
When I run "e2label /dev/sdb" I get:

e2label /dev/sdb
e2label: Bad magic number in super-block while trying to open /dev/sdb
/dev/sdb contains a iso9660 file system labelled 'Ubuntu-Server 17.04 amd64'

Now, I did not need this installation anymore, so I created a single
Linux partition on the USB stick (/dev/sdb1)
with fdisk, and labeled it as sandiskUSB.
When I run:
e2label /dev/sdb1
I get
sandiskUSB

Is there a way to change also the lablel of /dev/sdb to be sandiskUSB ?

Tying
e2label /dev/sdb sandiskUSB
does not work, it gives:
e2label: Bad magic number in super-block while trying to open /dev/sdb
/dev/sdb contains a iso9660 file system labelled 'Ubuntu-Server 17.04 amd64'

Setting console font from terminal fails ("cannot open font file")

[Kevin Wilson]

Hello all,
I want to enlarge the fonts I am using in terminal (when logging as
non root) on Fedora 28.
I installed the terminus-fonts rpm on fedora 28 (dnf install terminus-fonts)

When I try from a terminal (I mean not gnome-terminal, but the
terminal you get into when logging in
without GUI/X windows)
setfont ter-132b
I get
"cannot open font file"

I tried
cp /usr/share/fonts/terminus/ter-132b.pcf.gz /lib/kbd/consolefonts/
and running again the same setfont command, still it fails.
I am usign GNOME, not KDE (not sure it matters in this case).

Any ideas ?

Copy on right click with gnome terminal

[Kevin Wilson]

Hello, Fedora users,

I am working with gnome-terminal under Fedora 27. I want to be able to
select text with the right click of a mouse, and to
paste it immediately when pressing the left button (not the middle
button). I am used to this with apps like putty, mRmoteNG and others
apps.

There was a patch that can be applied to gnome-terminal source for Fedora 15,
in the following link:
https://github.com/jbholland/gnome-terminal-right-click

It is based on an Ubuntu patch:
http://www.taika.org/~tomba/gnome-terminal/index.html

It does not apply on F27 as this is a different version. I tried to
add the patch code
manually but it did not work for me - I am not an expert at all about
coding gnome apps.

Any ideas ?

Kevin

Re: Setting biosdevname=0 netif.names=0 in Fedora 25 seems no to work

[Kevin Wilson]

Hi Patrick,

>Try net.ifnames=0
Not sure what you mean; the cat /proc/cmdline in my post mentioned
that it includes:
"biosdevname=0 netif.names=0"

Do you mean to use netif.names=0 in the kernel command line without
biosdevname=0?

Setting biosdevname=0 netif.names=0 in Fedora 25 seems no to work

[Kevin Wilson]

Hello,
There is a way to avoid using the enp2s* naming conventions for
ethernet cards and use eth*  instead by adding
biosdevname=0 netif.names=0
to the kernel command line.
I used it in earlier Fedora distros, but with F25 it does not work.
My Kernel command line now after adding "biosdevname=0 netif.names=0" is:
cat /proc/cmdline
BOOT_IMAGE=/boot/vmlinuz-4.8.6-300.fc25.x86_64
root=UUID=2d422951-00af-4b9b-94d2-c7661beeea33 ro rhgb quiet
biosdevname=0 netif.names=0

Still "ifconfig -a" shows devices like enp0s25, enp2s0f0. enp2s0f1 and
so on, and not eth* devices.

Any ideas ?

Booting from SSD or not

[Kevin Wilson]

Hi all,
I have several machines in my lab, all of them running Fedora.
Some of the have both SSD and non SSD drivers.
Since the setup is dynamic (sometimes I transfer disks from machine to
machine), there are cases that the SSD drive is one machine is
disconnected/moved to a different machine, and the boot is done
from the other non SSD driver (on which also Fedora is installed).

Is there a way to know whether to boot was done from SSD or not ?
(I know I can try to read the product name of the device from which
boot was done, but in many cases this is not enough to know straight
away whether it is SSD or not.

Regards,
Kevin

Re: parallel of grub2-mkconfig in older fedora release which has grub and not grub2

[Kevin Wilson]

Hi,
Thanks Todd.
The thing is that now CentOS is installed and it is the current
control and it indeed uses an older grub. So what do you suggest ?
That I will reinstall Ubuntu on Fedora on the current machine so they
will the "current control"? It is quite a hassle as there is no free
partition for it (unless I will resize it); and already there are 3 OS
installed on that machine. I believe there should be another way to do
it with the old grub without installing another OK on the same
machine,

Regards,
Kevin

parallel of grub2-mkconfig in older fedora release which has grub and not grub2

[Kevin Wilson]

Hello,

On a machine with Fedora 23 grub2, I use "grub2-mkconfig -o
/boot/grub2/grub.cfg" in order to update
/boot/grub2/grub.cfg if there are changes in /etc/default/grub.
Running this command also
sees to it that if there are other installations of Linux on the
machine, and if the respective partitions are mounted,
then if there are no entries in the /boot/grub2/grub.cfg, then entries
for these other installations of Linux are added.

I have a machine which have Fedora 22 and windows. I installed
CentOs 6.8 on this machine. After installation, I do not see the F22
in the /boot/grub/grub.conf.

I do see the windows installation  in /boot/grub/grub.conf.

On Cetnos 6.8, "grub" is the bootloader, not "grub2":
rpm -qa | grep grub
grub
grubby

What should I rub to add the Fedora 22 entries to /boot/grub/grub.conf?

Kevin

Import pxssh failed in Fedora 24 (worked in Fedora 23 and earlier vresions)

[Kevin Wilson]

Hi all,

I ran a python 2 script which works fine for Fedora 23 and earlier,
with python-2.7. It stopped
to work on Fedoera 24 ; following are details:

python
Python 2.7.10 (default, Sep  8 2015, 17:20:17)

>>> import pexpect
>>> import pxssh
>>>

...
rpm -q python-pexpect
python-pexpect-3.1-4.fc23.noarch

In fedora 24, I don't have python-pexpect, it seems that
python2-pexpect replaced it.
But python2-pexpect does include pexpect.py and pxssh.py
rpm -ql  python2-pexpect | grep pexpect.py
/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/pexpect/fdpexpect.py
...
cghost:~$rpm -ql  python2-pexpect | grep pxssh.py
/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/pexpect/pxssh.py

However, I get ImportError: No module named pxssh when running the same script:
The error is about pxssh; please not that  import pexpect succeeded.

$> python
Python 2.7.11 (default, Jun 21 2016, 09:15:12)

Any ideas ?

Re: Mounting (or preparing) LiveCD as a read-write

[Kevin Wilson]

Hi,
> 'loop' mount iso, change grub.config, save as new iso, install to usb.

Thanks for the advice, but this seems not to work:

$mount -o loop /work/down/setup/Fedora-Live-Workstation-x86_64-21-5.iso
/mnt/loop
mount: /dev/loop0 is write-protected, mounting read-only

then unmounting and mounting with "rw" option fails:

mount -o loop,rw
/work/down/setup/Fedora-Live-Workstation-x86_64-21-5.iso /mnt/loop
Still Again:
mount: /dev/loop0 is write-protected, mounting read-only

So obviously I cannot make any change to the mounted images.

Any idea how can I get rid of the "write protect" of the iso?

Regards,
Kevin

Hi,
Thanks, but this does not seem to solve the problem.
Once I put the live on part 1, as suggested, it will be written as
read only. And the grub.conf

part 1 is read only.
Or am I wrong ?

Mounting (or preparing) LiveCD as a read-write

[Kevin Wilson]

Hello,
After copying an ISO of fedora 23 x86_64 into a USB key with the dd
command, everything is fine - I can boot with that USB
key.
However, there is one machine where I have to use nosmp so that it
will boot. There is some hw problem with this issue but
this machine is only for simple tests so I don't mind that it will
work as a non SMP machine,
So I want to change the grub of the USB disk on key (add "nosmp" to
the kernel command line)

When I boot into fedora from hard disk and try to mount it, it is
mounted as read-only. Also specifying "rw" and a boot options does not
change
it - it refuses to do so:
mount /dev/sdc1 -o rw /mnt/sdc1

Failed to execute operation: Access denied.

Any ideas if there is anything I can do make this USB read-write ? or
is there a way to perapare Live Fedora USB  key so that it could be
mounted from the Hard Disk as read-write ?

Regards,
Kevin

/sys/devices/system/node/node1
but I **do not** see /sys/devices/system/node/node0.

On other Fedora 23 machines I do see **both** /sys/devices/system/node/node0 and
/sys/devices/system/node/node1

Any idea what can be the reason for this ?

Regards,
Kevin

Finding the date on which a Fedora 23 was installed on a given machine

[Kevin Wilson]

Hello all,

Is there a way to find out the date on which a Fedora distro was
installed on a given machine (assuming that the date was set correctly
on the machine when it was installed)?

Burning Fedora to iso

[Kevin Wilson]

Hello,
I want to install Fedora 22 on x86_63
I had downloaded the iso of workstation.

I know I can burn it with k3b, I did this in the past with other releases.

Is there a way I can burn it from the linux command line so the DVD
can be bootable and so that I
will  be able to install from it ? for example, with
cdrecord ?

I will appreciate if somebody can guide me as to the exact command
line parameters
which I should set in such a case.

kevin

Re: Disabling auditd on Fedora 22

[Kevin Wilson]

Dan,
Thanks a lot for your reply.
In fact, I ran
pm -e selinux-policy-targeted
rpm -e selinux-policy
And after reboot I got some message about freeze from systemd, I could
not login (tried twice), so I reinstalled Linux on this machine.
The question is: what do you mean by If you disable SELinux.

Does that mean adding selinux=0 on command line?
Or is it enough to set,  in /etc/selinux/config

SELINUX=disabled

(or maybe better is SELINUX=permissive, as Ali suggested ).

Kevin

Re: Disabling auditd on Fedora 22

[Kevin Wilson]

Hi,
Thanks Sam, Tom and Ranjan!
Going further:

In /etc/selinux/config

I set
SELINUX=disabled
Which means that I do not use in fact SElinux, so it seems to me.

So will it be OK to run:
rpm -e selinux-policy-targeted
rpm -e selinux-policy

Regards,
Kevin

 There are a few obscure questions you can answer about your
 system using auditd, but it is almost impossible to discover
 how to use it to find out the info even if you suspect it might
 be useful :-).

 Personally, I also set audit=0 on the kernel command line
 to prevent anyone from even trying to talk to auditd.

 I just removed auditd from the system using dnf erase auditd. We will see 
 what happens, but no issue so far.

 Oh, I removed libreport too, a while ago.

Installing Fedora KDE Plasma Desktop spin, Fedora 22

[Kevin Wilson]

Hi, Fedora users,

I downloaded and burned on a DVD the following image:
Fedora KDE Plasma Desktop
from Fedora website:
http://spins.fedoraproject.org/en/kde/

Now, I want to install it on my disk.
However, when booting from the DVD, it starts a screen where I see
Live user session (as default) and when I enter this session, I do
not reach a place from where I can install it on hard disk (as opposed
to the case when I install Fedora workstation, which let me choose
between LiveCD and Installation)
The same is if I chooses other session.

Any idea how can I install the Fedora KDE Plasma Desktop on disk
from this DVD?
or could it be that this spin is only a live DVD, and does not support
installing on disk?

Regards,
Kevin

How to remove virbr0

[Kevin Wilson]

Hi,
I recently installed Fedora 20 on x86_64 machine . I
also installed several packages on this machine. When I boot my Fedora
20 machine, ifconfig -a  shows that there is virbr0 and it is up.
It is probably due to some rpm/service which I installed.
Any idea which rpm/service could it be ? is there a way I could find
(apart from guessing) which
rpm/service is that one ?

Kevin

Fedora 22 - Switched to KDE on Fedora, still starts with GNOME

[Kevin Wilson]

Hi, all,

I had installed Fedora 22 on x86_64 machine.
I had installed kde by dnf install -y @kde.

I had selected kde by  swithcdesk.
I had rebooted and still it starts in GNOME.

switchdesk from x windows shows that KDE is selected.

I made another reboot, selecting plasma from the scroll option
dialog in the boot screen, still
it logged into Gnome and not KDE.

Any ideas ? something similar to this used to work in Fedora 21, IIRC.

[Kevin Wilson]

Hi,
Yup, I tried now removing gdm and using sddm, and rebooted, and it
enters a different screen (No KDE icon). It seems to me that this
should be KDE, as I see KDE System Settings, frin Applications,
but not the one that I had in previous F20.

 By design all display/login managers save last session used, so if you use
 Plasma session, and restart or logout/login it should be selected by default
 next time, so if it doesn't, it looks like a bug (if you are running gnome
 (aka workstation) default login manager is gdm), as a workaround 'sddm' should
 be installed by @kde-desktop, so you can try to switch to sddm if there is
 nothing specific you need gdm for.

 #2...
 at the wiki/KDE [1], it says to install group 'kde-desktop'
 # dnf install @kde-desktop
 I don't know what @kde and @kde-desktop have, could be that @kde is not
 complete desktop (currently not on a fedora system to check this :(

One of the configured repositories failed (Fedora 21 - x86_64) when running docker build on F21:

[Kevin Wilson]

Hi,

I have the follwing problem, running on Fedora 21, with
docker-io-1.5.0-2.fc21.x86_64:

I have this Dockerfile:

cat Dockerfile
FROM fedora
MAINTAINER tester
RUN yum -y update  yum clean all
RUN yum -y install httpd

When I am running
docker build -t test .
I get:
Sending build context to Docker daemon 3.072 kB
Sending build context to Docker daemon
Step 0 : FROM fedora
 --- 834629358fe2
Step 1 : MAINTAINER tester
 --- Using cache
 --- 16e9f95d5ab0
Step 2 : RUN yum -y update  yum clean all
 --- Running in 88b98222885a


 One of the configured repositories failed (Fedora 21 - x86_64),
 and yum doesn't have enough cached data to continue. At this point the only
 safe thing yum can do is fail. There are a few ways to work fix this:

 1. Contact the upstream for the repository and get them to fix the problem.

 2. Reconfigure the baseurl/etc. for the repository, to point to a working
upstream. This is most often useful if you are using a newer
distribution release than is supported by the repository (and the
packages for the previous distribution release still work).

 3. Disable the repository, so yum won't use it by default. Yum will then
just ignore the repository until you permanently enable it again or use
--enablerepo for temporary usage:

yum-config-manager --disable fedora

 4. Configure the failing repository to be skipped, if it is unavailable.
Note that yum will try to contact the repo. when it runs most commands,
so will have to try and fail each time (and thus. yum will be be much
slower). If it is a very temporary problem though, this is often a nice
compromise:

yum-config-manager --save --setopt=fedora.skip_if_unavailable=true

Cannot retrieve metalink for repository: fedora/21/x86_64. Please
verify its path and try again
INFO[0042] The command [/bin/sh -c yum -y update  yum clean all]
returned a non-zero code: 1


Any ideas what can be the reason for this?

Kevin

What are *.xz compressed kernel modules for (Fedora 21)

[Kevin Wilson]

Hi,

I have Fedora 21 (x86_64).
Under /usr/lib/modules/3.17.4-302.fc21.x86_64/kernel, all the kernel
module are in compressed form.
(xz files).
Under
 /usr/lib/modules/3.17.4-302.fc21.x86_64/kernel, the kernel modules
are in the *.ko form

What are the *.xz compressed kernel modules for ? In fedora 20 we had
only *.ko files under /lib/modules.

It seems to me that after booting, when running modprobe, only the
*.ko modules are used.

Just wonder what would happen If I would (accidentally or by purpose)
delete the /lib/modules folder in fedora 21 (I don't intend to do it
before getting an answer here...)

Kevin

 OK so it's not root, which means you can just umount it and run e2fsck
 without booting from alternate media.

 I can't tell from the journal output, which appears incomplete as it
 has no mention of the fsck at all, why you're dropped to rescue
 kernel. If /work is in fstab then it's required for basic.target
 unless you have nofail or noauto as a mount option, so I'm guessing
 the fsck preen failed to fix the problem and so basic.target fails.

 So yeah, run e2fsck -f on this volume, and then take a cell phone
 photo and put it up somewhere. That's easier than typing it all out.

 logout/login is usually sufficient

 If that doesn't achieve your goal

 systemctl restart sddm.service

There are vailable single src rpms in Fedora mirror sites.


For fedora 21, are these source rpms DVD not exist anymore on fedora mirrors?

F21 server and vesa

[Kevin Wilson]

Hello,

I installed F21 server, x86_64.

Now, as expected from a server, it does not contain kde or gnome.

I know that server usually does not need to run XWindows applications.
However, I need from time to time to use xwindows applications on the
server, like some
monitoring tools (wireshark and others).

So I ran yum install -y @kde and after it completer, I ran:
startx.

However, I got this error:
...
(EE) Failed to load module vesa (module does not exist)
...

And X windows did not start.


Is there any way to resolve this and enable running XWindows ?

 You may need some more groups/packages... perhaps:

 @base-x @fonts

 Try installing those?

Using journalctl to view kernel log

[Kevin Wilson]

Hi,

I am using
journalctl -kf or journalctl -k
to see kernel log messages.

However, messages of pr_debug are not shown by this commands.

Is there some way to view pr_debug kernel messages with journalctl -k ?

Re: Get rid of the message: session opened for user

[Kevin Wilson]

Hi,
 I'm curious - why?
The reason is quite simple:
I am a kernel developer and sometimes ssh into my machine in
several ssh sessions, many times during work sessions I monitor the
kernel log by tail -f /var/log/messages, and any clutter of text
simply distracts me and is not needed as I am working in an isolated
LAN in a LAB, there is no outside access and no risk of penetration.
I am sure there is a way to avoid this messages.

Any ideas anyone?

 Hey Kevin,

 I'm curious - why?  I've found these messages to be very useful when
 troubleshooting or auditing remote connection attempts.  If you're
 looking at the logs and only want to see messages from a specific
 service, you can simply filter based on your needs at the time, ie
 `journalctl --since today --unit NetworkManager`.

running a specified binary across reboots

[Kevin Wilson]

Hello, Fedora users,

I want to run a binary of some Fedora application I wrote immediately
after reboot.

I know that as a workaround I can wrap it as a systemd daemon, but I
prefer not to.

In previous fedora distros, making it run across reboots was enabled
by adding an entry
in /etc/rc.local.

What is a good practice to achieve it in Fedora 20 ? there is no
/etc/rc.local in my fedora 20, and trying to add an entry in
/etc/rc.local does not cause it be be run across boots.

regards,
Kevin

 Yes, Fedora does support an rc.local concept

 From

 http://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/Fedora/16/html/Release_Notes/sect-Release_Notes-Changes_for_Sysadmin.html

 3.2.4. rc.local no longer packaged
 The /etc/rc.d/rc.local local customization script is no longer included by 
 default. Administrators who need this functionality merely have to create 
 this file, make it executable, and it will run on boot.

Fedora 20 on i686 machine

Hi,
I installed today Fedora 20 on i686 machine.
When I ran uname -r I so that the kernel
I have is: 3.11.10-301.fc20.i686 + PAE

Is the PAE kernel for i686 the default one ? or maybe I missed
something in the installation ?

avoiding renaming of the wlan0 device

[Kevin Wilson]

I have fedora 20, and when I connect a wireless usb nic, I get this messages:

Jan  4 21:33:08 localhost kernel: [  273.797184] ieee80211 phy0:

interface wlan0 to wlp0s29f7u5u1

and with iwconfig I indeed see wlp0s29f7u5u1 (was wlan0 in fedora 18)

Is there a way to avoid it ?

I saw here:
https://mailman.archlinux.org/pipermail/arch-dev-public/2013-January/024231.html
this suggestion:
mask the rule: ln -s /dev/null /etc/udev/rules.d/80-net-name-slot.rules

But I do not have /etc/udev/rules.d/80-net-name-slot.rules.

The other suggestion in the link above is to create a udev rule, but I
do not know how to do it.

rpm -q systemd gives:
systemd-208-9.fc20.x86_64

Kevin

A question about chromium (not related to installation)

[Kevin Wilson]

Hello,
Following the question about chromium installation in F20 recently in
this mailing list, but not related directly to it (and this is the
reason that I post it as a separate thread):

What are the benefits of using Chroimium over using google stable
chrome on Fedora ? Especially, are there any chances that using
chromium will play some audio streams which will not be played with
google stable chrome? I am asking it because I had some problems
with playing some mms content (but not all), which I **could** play
with firefox.

Fedora 20 installation on Lenovo N500 fails

Hello all,
I tried to install Fedora 20 on Lenovo N500 laptop (x86_64) from a DVD.

When I try to install it on Lenovo N500 laptop (x86_64) it fails - it reboots.
I tried several times.

I also tried in text mode (linux text) and again it fails.

Hi,
Update from the front:

However, when I put the SD card in a different slot in this reader, it worked!
I will try the same on Fedora and let you know...

  inserting the card after the reader is plugged in did not change
 anything, still cannot read it.
 It is 2GB SD card of SanDisk.

 Take the card out and put it back in until it is detected --- give it a
 few seconds to detect the card.  Try to plug the card reader into a
 different USB port.

 If you cannot find a combination of the USB port the reader is plugged
 into and whether to plug the card in after the reader is plugged in or
 before plugging in the reader and taking out the card and putting it
 back in while the reader is plugged in, just get another card reader.

Hi
 inserting the card after the reader is plugged in did not change

gnome desktop - enters idle and requires password

Hello,

Re: disable ssdp

[Kevin Wilson]

Hi,
You are right! it is from an Edimax wireless router.
I know now for sure because with sniffer I see the address of
192.168.2.1 as a source address, and the 192.168.2.1 address is the
address of the Edimax wireless router.

However:

There is a UPnP setting - I can reach it from the web interfaces.
But it is disabled !

So I am quite bewildered.

Could it be that it is from an Android phone connected over a Wifi
with the wireless router as a gateway ?


Regards,
Kevin

traceroute www.google.com gives immediately the list of nodes.

This is fedora 18, iptables  stopped (and flushed), firewalld stopped.

Could it be somehow due to not flushing firewalld rules ? (I don't

Switching between languages in Fedora 18.

[Kevin Wilson]

Hi all,
I am trying to assign key to switching between
languages on Fedora 18.
With previous Fedora releases, 17 and down, I did it with both shift keys.
Now, when I go to Regional and Language settings-shortcuts,
Switch to next source is defined as Alt+1
Pressing Alt+1 indeed change languages; however, it does not let me change
the shortcut to both shift keys.

Is it possible to set both shift keys to switching to next source in
Fedora 18 ?

 Based purely on what I have observed, as opposed to standards, claims, or
 official pronouncements (which may be more correct), if you can boot Linux
 now you do not have a UEFI enabled system.

 I have seen claims that FC18 will boot on UEFI, based on a sample size of
 one and Live-CD (x86_64) booting off a USB thumb drive, that is not the
 case. It seems that UEFI is not required to recognize the token MS sold
 Linux, so some don't.

 If UEFI is active you can't run dmidecode, so the question may boil down to
 if anything shows when UEFI is present but not enabled, like SElinux in
 advicory mode.

Re: building ppp from src rpm failed in f17

[Kevin Wilson]

Hi,
Thanks, I thought so.
But wasn't the process of installing the src rpm as I did
was supposed to look for it? isn't the src.rpm is the origin when
preparing rpm in the Fedora project release process ?
Let met rephrase my question: When I take any src.rpm,
can't I rely on preparing an rpm out of it (in the standard way,
as I described above). Why can't I rely on that there will be know
errors and no manual intervention as needed in the ppp case ?

 You're trying to build a shared library and the build fails in
 creating shared objects. The solution is in the text above:
 recompile with -fPic.

Re: building ppp from src rpm failed in f17

[Kevin Wilson]

Hello,
rpmbuild --rebuild ppp-2.4.5-22.fc17.src.rpm WORKED for me;
the executables were generated under /root/rpmbuild/BUILD/ppp-2.4.5


I don't know the difference between
rpmbuild -bb ppp.spec or at least
and rpmbuild -bc ppp.spec.

Re: building ppp from src rpm failed in f17

Hi,
Thanks for the advice. I am well aware of it. This machine is a
testing machine with very
little which is important and it is backed up and I intend to isntall
there f18 in a month anyway.
Forgive me my ignorance: quick question: does
rpmbuild --rebuild
includes running make install? I did not notice

Re: building ppp from src rpm failed in f17

[Kevin Wilson]

Thanks!
Last one, really:
suppose I want to build a source rpm. I do not
want to run make install as I do want to keep my orig binaries.
So what should I do ?
this is in fact the reason that I tried
rpmbuild -bp specFile
and the moving to BUILD/ppp-2.4.5 and ./configure  make from there.
But with ppp it failed.
Is there a flag which tells rpbuild not to build but not to run make install ?

 does not matter

 there is no clean buildroot guaranteed if running as root

 Forgive me my ignorance: quick question: does
 rpmbuild --rebuild
 includes running make install? I did not notice

 for sure, try to understand how rpmbuild works

 * unpack the sources
 * run configure
 * make install in the buildroot
 * pack the RPM is all files are existing and listed in the %files section

 and that is why running as root makes pretty no sense
 / from the view of the build-rpcoess is the clean buildroot
 under rpmbuild and anything which tries ot break out there
 is simply a bug which must not happen

 so if all is working normal there is no need for root permissions
 and if there comes a permission denied something was not normal
 and thank god for not allow whatever it tried to run

Re: building ppp from src rpm failed in f17

Hi
Thanks a lot for this info!
Ok, I was afraid that somehow my binaries will be replaced
by the --rebuild. Now I know that without installing the rpm
nothing will occur to  them, so it is safe and solves my problem.

 It's important to note that while building an RPM _can_ mess up your
 installed system if the spec file is bad, it _shouldn't_. The RPM build
 process will run make install with a special temporary build directory as
 the target, and it won't overwrite your actual current binaries until you
 actually install the RPM.

How to connect fedora 17 to android with bluetooth

[Kevin Wilson]

Hi,
Status is:
hciconfig on the fedora machine shows that the bt device is UP RUNNING
PSCAN
and has a valid BD address.

I can make a bluetooth scan from Fedora (hcitools scan) and see the Android
phone.
On the other hand, scannning from Android does not find the fedora machine.

Any advice on why is it so ?

Second, is it a valid state ? can I make a connection in this state between
Fedora machine
and Android with bluetooth ?

rgs,
Kevin

Fedora 17, hostapd and avoiding DHCPDISCOVER requests

[Kevin Wilson]

Hi,
I am running hostapd on top of backfire (hostapd) on WRT54GL LinkSys device
with b43 driver.

I have very simple, minimalistic hostapd configuration.
Now , I run on the LinkSys device:
hostapd /etc/hostapd.conf

and it starts OK.

On a nearby Fedora 17 Linux machine I insert wifi USB card, and the
Network Manager identifies the BSS (of the hostaod on the LinkSys device).

When I try to connect with Network Manager to the LinkSys device I see
, in the kernel log of the Linux machine, these messages:
...
...
 dhclient[2872]: DHCPDISCOVER on wlan0 to 255.255.255.255 port 67
interval 9 (xid=0x9dd84e4)
 dhclient[2872]: DHCPDISCOVER on wlan0 to 255.255.255.255 port 67
interval 8 (xid=0x9dd84e4)
 NetworkManager[540]: warn (wlan0): DHCPv4 request timed out.
 NetworkManager[540]: info (wlan0): canceled DHCP transaction, DHCP
client pid 2872
...
...

Over and over again.

Now what I understand is that since there is no DHCP server on the
LinkSys device, the DHCP requests the the network manager sends
are not replied.

My question is:
 Is there a way to tell the Network Manager **not** to send DHCP
requests in such a case
 (when connecting to the AP) ?

 Yes, but the path will be only slightly different. Simplest way to
 change this ugly B5A2-5890 is to relabel disk partition using e.g.
 dosfslabel or disk manager utility. Removable disk will be mounted
 under: /run/media/USER/LABEL. More advanced options could be found in
 disk manager tool under mount options (related to specific partition).

 You can always add static entry in /etc/fstab that will mount this
 particular ugly looking partition in some nice directory anywhere in the
 file system. But I strongly recommend using disk manager for that.

add a language in Ferdora 17

[Kevin Wilson]

Hi
I am trying to add a language in Ferdora, but the new language is not kept

I go to
System Settings
   Region and language
Press + and select Dansih from the list.
Then close the dialog window.
After I open the dialog window again, the new language I added does not appear
I tried the same with other languages like Czech and more, and I still have the
problem.

Another thing is this
In the Region and Language window, some languages appear (Like French, German,
Spanish and more). But the minus button is disabled and I cannot
remove any of them. Any idea why ?

Fedora 18 and UEFI

[Kevin Wilson]

Hi, everyone,
I have a question about UEFI in fedora 18: I see in lwn.net article:

Fedora's strategy is to enroll in Microsoft's developer program,
which allows the project to purchase an approved $99 key through
Verisign, a key which will be recognized by UEFI secure boot. The key
will be used to sign the shim bootloader, which is a trivial UEFI
first-stage bootloader whose only job is to boot GRUB2. Fedora will
also sign the GRUB2 bootloader and the kernel, although the latter two
binaries can be signed with the Fedora project's own keys.

see
http://lwn.net/Articles/503803
 That this means that from F18 on, fedora will cost 99$ for every installation?

Kevin

 Discussion on fedora-devel is still ongoing:
 https://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/devel/2012-June/167732.html

 But from what I gather,
 the fedoraproject as vendor,
 will pay Microsoft who will provide a signing service.

 The fedora end-use will pay nothing.
 But read the thread for the to and fro.

Accessing MS Exchange 5.5 mailbox from Fedora 15

[Kevin Wilson]

Hello,
 Is there a way to access MS Exchange 5.5 mail server from Fedora 15?

I saw that for previous versions of Evolution there was a plugin called
evolution-brutus plugin - for exchange 5.5 server
but from what I found, this plugin is not available for fedora 15.

I also tried with thunderbird, but I did not find out how.

I want to add that I don't need to sync a calander, only to read mail.
another thing is, a solution which will enable me to only read mail
(and not send) is also
good for me.

Assigning an action to to windows left button (Super_L)

[Kevin Wilson]

Hello,
I want to assign the action Hide all normal windows and set
focus to the desktop to the windows left button (Super_L).

I have Fedora 12 with Gnome and metacity. In previous Fedora releases,
like 8 or 8 (or maybe also 10/11, not sure ), I could do this by
simply going to system-Preferences-Keyboard shortcuts, and from there
assign Super_L to  Hide all normal windows and set focus to the desktop
simply by pressing the left windows button when asked to enter a key for this
action. With Fedora 12, this is not possible! When I press the windows left key,
(Super_L), nothing happens ! it stays blank ! I am **able** to enter a
combinatin
of keys, however. When I press windowskey + M I get Mod4 + M and then , when
I press the windowskey + M combination indeed I get a toggle of
hiding/showing
the desktop.

I tried configuring with gconf-editor and also with editing /etc/X11/Xmodmap
but it did not succeed.
I would appreciate any advice on it.

Kevin
