This turned out to be a bad proposal, since the workstation didn't boot

Fortunately, the local IT support went in and updated the BIOS which

Swap:  62499836   062499836

and they also booted the computer in a Fedora kernel. (I'm off-site for 
a couple of months.)


I.e. the BIOS was the problem, as I had suspected.

Can you send us the content of /proc/cmdline?


$ cat /proc/cmdline
BOOT_IMAGE=/vmlinuz-4.16.16-300.fc28.x86_64
root=/dev/mapper/luks-1d176bad-1b27-4e38-8c18-61a8b96517db ro

LANG=en_US.UTF-8


Also check any RAMdisks you may have (e.g. "df -h | grep tmpfs"). See
if any of them are possibly eating up RAM. I'd suspect /tmp and
(possibly) your swap partition.

$ df -h |grep tmpfs
devtmpfs3.9G 0  3.9G   0% /dev
tmpfs   3.9G 0  3.9G   0% /dev/shm
tmpfs   3.9G  1.8M  3.9G   1% /run
tmpfs   3.9G 0  3.9G   0% /sys/fs/cgroup
tmpfs   3.9G  104K  3.9G   1% /tmp
tmpfs   789M   16K  789M   1% /run/user/42
tmpfs   789M   24K  789M   1% /run/user/1000

so this still would leave something like 40GB missing.

The joke is, the >60GB of missing memory doesn't even show up in free:

Same goes for htop. It's showing I have 2.29G of memory.

>60gb of reserved memory??

2018-06-21 Thread Susi Lehtola

Dear all,


I just noticed a very weird problem on my workstation. Although the 
machine has 64 GB of RAM installed,


$ head -n 1 /proc/meminfo
MemTotal:2400748 kB

that is, only a few gigabytes are actually available.

Unfortunately I don't have physical access to the machine, which is a HP 
desktop bought last fall. According to dmesg, the model is something like


[0.00] DMI: HP HP EliteDesk 800 G3 TWR/8298, BIOS P01 Ver. 02.06 
06/09/2017


Also according to dmesg, it appears that the kernel *does* see all 64 
gigs, BUT OVER 60 GB IS RESERVED MEMORY!!


[0.00] Memory: 2326720K/66985176K available (12300K kernel code, 
1568K rwdata, 3836K rodata, 2124K init, 1368K bss, 64658456K reserved, 
0K cma-reserved)


Does anyone have any idea of what could be going on?

I am running an up-to-date Fedora 27 x86_64 with kernel 
4.16.15-200.fc27.x86_64.--

You might find that using the switches

To convert all warnings into errors you can use -Werror.

Weird crashes and slowdowns

2017-03-27 Thread Susi Lehtola

Hi,


I'm wondering if anyone else has noticed weird things happening on their 
Intel laptops.


My Lenovo U31-70 has been misbehaving for a long long time under Fedora. 
Firefox and/or X often slow to a crawl, and sometimes X even crashes. 
I'm wondering if this is due to a buggy video driver.

Hello,

Since I update fc22 to fc24 I am in trouble with several of my

Actually, gsl has been updated from 1 to 2 with major changes.
It results that perl-Math::GSL is not anymore compatible with gsl-2.
The maintainer of this package is not ready to make the changes
required by the new version of gsl and I have several crucial
applications based on gsl and perl-Math::GSL.
Is there any way to install gsl-1 with fc24 ?


... Going back to your original question, it would seem that adapting 
perl-Math::GSL to be compatible with GSL 2 would be the much easier 
route. GSL 2.x isn't that much different from GSL 1.x, only some 
functions have had their APIs changed.


Also, it would seem that there's already work towards GSL 2.x support

Not as (standard) rpms. But you can compile gsl-1 by hand if you really 
need it.


Or, another alternative would be to install a distribution with the 
older software versions you need in a chroot or a virtual machine and 
use that.

I installed Fedora 23 on a Laptop a while back and I decided to use disk

Am I correct that it may simply be easier to re-install the system
rather than try to remove the encryption or is there an easy way to
remove it?


You're not saying if you encrypted the whole system or no.

To remove the encryption, you'll need to reformat any encrypted 
partitions, which means moving your data somewhere else.


Now, if you only encrypted the /home partition and had enough space on 
other partitions, you could move the data away, reformat the partition 
/home is situated, and move the data back.


In general you'll have to reinstall.

Going the route of first installing f21 and then f22 is way too long

But it is also the only one officially supported.

You might be able to do a yum upgrade directly to Fedora 22 since no

Hi Rick,
None of rawhide repos are enabled.
The latest version of fedup in f21 is fedpkg-1.20-1.fc21.noarch.rpm

you seem to be running Fedora 20, not Fedora 21. Have you updated part 
of your system to Fedora 21? If that is the case, I agree with Gordon. 
You should do a clean install of Fedora 22.

If you're not happy with the advice I gave you about using finite

gsl has an excellent manual.

All of this is covered, with examples, at

https://www.gnu.org/software/gsl/manual/html_node/Initializing-the-Solver.html#Initializing-the-Solver

https://www.gnu.org/software/gsl/manual/html_node/Root-Bracketing-Algorithms.html#Root-Bracketing-Algorithms


This is root_fsolver not the multifit_fsolver !!!


Whoops.

Well, the same stands for multifit_fsolver: documentation exists in the 
manual.


https://www.gnu.org/software/gsl/manual/html_node/Minimization-Algorithms-without-Derivatives.html#Minimization-Algorithms-without-Derivatives

So it seems gsl doesn't have anything implemented currently. You can 
always use finite difference derivatives though...

 I am attempting to compile an application (MPB from MIT) with support

 Does anyone know of a repo that has fftw with mpi?  I have not found 
 anything on google.  I tried compiling fftw from source, but it failed 
 its own self tests.  Besides, installing a home built fftw could affect 
 other applications that depend on the Fedora-supplied one.
 
 Any suggestion will be appreciated.

File a feature request in bugzilla against fftw.

mpi support hasn't been put in, because compiling even fftw is a mess:
four different flavors are built, consisting of single, double, long
double and quadruple precision.

Plugging in the mpi versions will require 3x4 = 12 separate compiles.
Also, if the flavors are put in separate subpackages, it'll also mean 8
more subpackages...

  So, you're saying the comments in those links are inaccurate?
 
 I'm just wondering why the version numbers don't correspond to those
 in the GnuTLS advisory:

Most likely because the patch has been applied, as the maintainer didn't
want to do a version bump on a core package.

  OK, that's the same sort of issue. Still just a mixup of package

 It's not an upgrade problem, Pete. gstreamer wants librtmp.so.0, but
 the latest is librtmp.so.1. gstreamer needs to be updated/repackaged to
 use the later library or the librtmp package needs to symlink
 librtmp.so.1 to librtmpt.so.0 to satisfy gstreamer. My vote is to update
 gstreamer since it wants an old SONAME thing.

This looks a lot like a problem with old yum metadata. Please run
 # yum clean all
and then try
 # yum install mplayer

All dependent packages have been recompiled against the bumped librtmp,
and they've just hit the stable updates repo some time ago.

 So I have been on the website:

 where the rpm is supposed to come from, and tried to download the

 Thus, is OOoLatex any more maintained?
 If no, what is going to replace it

I just had a look at this. Seems like the ooolatex project is pretty
much dead. However, there's another project called TexMaths that is
based on ooolatex, which seems to be alive and kicking.

There's no RPM for Fedora (I filed a RFE for it), but in the mean
time it's very easy to install the plugin into LibreOffice.

Are you sure you have the correct MPI runtime loaded? All sorts of
strange things can happen if you try running an MPI binary with the
wrong runtime libraries, e.g. mpich2 binary with openmpi.

Re: Installing texlive under Fedora 17.

2013-04-11 Thread Susi Lehtola


Quoting Rolf Turner r.tur...@auckland.ac.nz:


Under Fedora 17 I recently had problems with running latex on a file that
previously (under Ubuntu) I had no difficulty with.  (A while back I had to
switch from Ubuntu to Fedora for reasons that I won't go into here.)

I thought that perhaps I might be able to get rid of the flakiness
by re-installing texlive.

I downloaded the install-tl-unx.tar.gz tarball from


Don't install stuff manually when things have already been packages.  
Fedora 18 features a complete TeXLive 2012 distribution; you can also  
get it on Fedora 17 by


# yum remove tex-* texlive-*
# cat  /etc/yum.repos.d/texlive.repo EOF
[texlive]
name=texlive
baseurl=http://jnovy.fedorapeople.org/texlive/2012/packages.f17/
enabled=1
gpgcheck=0
EOF
# yum install texlive-scheme-full

after which you will have a full blown TeXLive install.

Alternatively, you can update to Fedora 18 and just do the last bit.
