comparing sizes/disk layout:
care to do a new install with btrfs and subvolumes for / and /home ?
subvolumes will share the whole disk space on both mount points.

I guess that would be more future proven ...

better to de-install the elder kernels via

1. uname -a 
=> get's the kernel you're currently running

2. rpm -q kernel-core 
=> all installed kernels included the one you're running 

3. sudo dnf remove  

kernel-core is a meta (?) packages what include kernel, kernel-modules , 
kernel-modules-core, etc.

anyway it wont you get much free space

yup, might be a bios update (if available) could help
OR
esp. in case it's an Intel CPU with Performance- and Efficient cores a newer 
kernel might help. 
IIRC, kernel developer have screwed at the power management, etc., esp. in 
kernel Versions 6.6.x, what means rawhide kernels in the fedora world
care to test with one ?

on the other hand: is your "sudo journalctl -b0" free of errors ?

AFAIK, display and radio (wifi, bluetooth) are the main battery suckers.

I would search the internet, maybe "https://linux-hardware.org";, for your 
device maybe one found a solution for your problem. 

but I would first start with a rawhide (or fc40) kernel.
https://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/packageinfo?packageID=8

download for x86_64 at least:
kernel-xyz
kernel-core-xyz
kernel-modules-xyz
kernel-modules-core-xyz
more ?

Be aware: 
rawhide kernels might contain bugs

Question regarding sudo and su

2023-10-03 Thread old sixpack13
I have the following problem:

I'm logged in as user joe (he is not in sudo group) and want to etherwake a 
remote box, called nuc, via an one-liner in an script.

now, on an command line, I usually do
1. su - ron (ron is in sudo group)
2. and then sudo ether-wake -i enp3s0  && ping nuc

etherwake needs root access

I want to combine 1. and 2. and run the combined command out of an script, but 
I'm failling.

I don't want to have user joe in sudo group

Idea's ?

- start powertop as root
- use the TAB key/shift+TAB key to move to tab "Tunables" and/or "Wakeup"
- use the cursor and enter key to switch the settings

cause the above setting will get lost after reboot I wrote script to generate a 
rc.local.
the rc.local should be owned by root: 

sudo chown root:root rc.local 

and should have the rights 700 (needed: ?, I'm unsure, but it works with it):

sudo chmod 700 rc.local

the rc.local should be moved to "/etc/rc.d/" and the box should be rebooted 
afterwards.
a "systemctl status rc-local.service" will then show the status or if the power 
setting are applied.

double check: sudo powertop and via TAB key to "Tunables": all should read 
"Good" 

BE AWARE:
mouse and keyboard might get stuttering, cause in power safe mode
if so: comment out the power settings in the rc.local for both devices !
- the script excludes Logitech devices (Logitech mouse+keyboard) here -

since moons there has been trouble using anydesk rpm from anydesk cause of 
missing lib's in fedora.

use the flatpak version (it's currently un-maintained, but still installable; 
tested on rawhide some days ago)

"flatpak search com.anydesk.Anydesk" shows nothing here, but
"flatpak install com.anydesk.Anydesk" gives (cause it's already installed)

Looking for matches…
Skipping: com.anydesk.Anydesk/x86_64/stable is already installed

===
all steps I did to get anydesk running:

- sudo dnf install flatpak
- sudo flatpak remote-add --if-not-exists flathub 
https://dl.flathub.org/repo/flathub.flatpakrepo
- sudo flatpak remote-modify --enable flathub
- sudo flatpak install anydesk

Personal I do not have trouble with kernel > 6.4.8, but my brother with his 
pure Intel Acer notebook 
(before graph. login: a black screen beginning with kernel 6.4.9).
more ?:
https://discussion.fedoraproject.org/t/f38-intel-skylake-xorg-and-kernel-6-4-9/87479/2
===
anyway Kernel 6.4.9 fixed some CPU HW Bug's, but AFAIK without the kernel 
maintainer who usually do those task, and - AFAIK- therefore it seems Kernel 
6.4.10 and later got some corrections.

long story short:
care to test kernel 6.4.12 ?

shortcoming of cockpit ?

2023-03-04 Thread old sixpack13
I playing around with F37 Server, Cockpit, btrfs mirror under vbox:

created a mirror with:
mkfs.btrfs -L MyMirror -m raid1 -d raid1 /dev/sdb /dev/sdc

fetched the UUID with:
btrfs fi show

setup the /etc/fstab:
UUID=  /home/DATA  btrfs device=/dev/sdb, 
device=/dev/sdc,compress=zstd:1  0  0
or
UUID=  /home/DATA  btrfs compress=zstd:1  0  0

rebooted

when I look at cockpit's "Storage" I see both disks are mounted, but also at 
the most right side a exclamation mark for /dev/sdc.
clicking down to the /dev/sdc:

=> "The filesystem is not mounted"
=> "Inconstistent filesystem mount"
=> "The filesystem is currently not mounted but will be mounted on the next 
boot"

Is it a shortcoming of cockpit ?

cause no hints in dmesg and the mirror is usable e.g. fillable via smbshare and 
both disk do have the same fill level.

not exactly what your ask for, but...

I use AnyDesk (same Developers of teamviewer created AnyDesk)
advantage: 
- size < 10 MB !
- runs without install on Windows

I currently can't figure out if it runs on XP, win 7, too
but win 8.1 !

for fedora you need the flatpak version and - I'm unsure - you need to run Xorg

anydesk:

to me it's slightly something more then just "ideas"

I get very very upset reading again and again on a "user list" where "helpless" 
(to make it more transparent) user asking for help confronted with the (for my 
taste) "condescending" answer:  "you are wrong here, go !"  only !

this never ever will fit with my understanding of a user list.

I will never ever accept user (in this case: @POC) forcing their policy/rules 
on a list regarding what's allowed or not even when they're not the admin of 
that list.
"self-titled authorities" triggering my "toxicity" and then it gets really hard

I hope you sometimes  listen to yourself regarding "incoherent babble"

and I'm completely convinced that you would be more satisfied if you could have 
written "muted from *my* Fedora user list".

you should consult a doc with that issue ...

what an incredible insight...
LOL

and esp. Ubuntu user and from other distros hanging at most on Fedora user list 
asking Evo questions...

but wait..., 
therefore we exactly have *you* to move them,  and of course "fedora users" 
too, off that lists, because they don't fit into ${poc's brain damaged sort and

to *me* it's sufficing that *you* read and see my question I addressed to *you*.
but you should answer what I ask for, not providing rabulistic junk 

so again: 
please define "specific Fedora question" !

hint:
that you can't remove Evolution from Fedora's (!) Gnome flavor without removing 
Gnome too means exactly what ?

you (maybe) want exclude external providers (=> privacy) ?

I'm using radicale with thunderbird and on the phone DAVx⁵ with with Etar [1] 
and OpenTasks
AFAIK, radicale supports Evolution too and is in the fedora repo's

needs some configuration though
on Fedora:
- export calendar and address book data from EVO
- setup radicale for EVO
- in EVO: import the data back to the new now radicale provided 
calendar/tasks/address book 
- thinks about a backup solution for EVO and /var/lib/radicale (=> next new 
Fedora install...)

on the phone:
- install the apps
- setup DAVx on the phone
-sync

===
https://radicale.org/v3.html#documentation/supported-clients
and on the phone:
https://f-droid.org/packages/at.bitfire.davdroid/
https://f-droid.org/en/packages/ws.xsoh.etar/
https://f-droid.org/packages/org.dmfs.tasks/

[1]
in case the default google calendar on the phone won't do (I'm unsure here, 
cause I'm running Lineage OS)

AFAIK, you definitively need OpenTasks to manage tasks on the phone

one answer could be that /var/tmp is for temporary files.
*and* /tmp and /var/tmp gets cleaned periodically by 
systemd-tmpfiles-clean.service. 
AFAIK, once per day.

hallo
running sudo dnf remove kernel-core- ..., e.g.
 
sudo dnf remove kernel-core-5.14.18-300.fc35.x86_64

doesn't not cleanup /lib/modules/5.14.18-300.fc35.x86_64 completely. 
a file "modules.builtin.alias.bin" in that directory and the directory itself

Maybe your problem is something else then just a "GPU hang" ?

In my case I evertime could switch to tty3.
mouse is moveable/visible but after a click nothing happens, as described in 
the bug report. Keyboard is working as usual.
just the GUI is dead.
maybe you could ssh into the box next time to see if it is the *not* GPU and 
save the money.
or find something investigating the log's after the reboot (but I guess you 
checked that alraedy)

+++ EDIT +++
I should have read the first thread again: it's an Intel GPU.

anyway, after Crtl+Alt+F3 you should be able to do 
"sync && sync && sudo systemctl reboot"

saves the headache about an possible (?) brtfs filesystem corruption when doing 
a "hardcore power off"
IIRC, a brtfs scrub ... afterwards could help

what happens when you do in an terminal:
sudo flatpak update
and afterwards in your "software center" (discovery ?)
a refresh/new search for updates

???

I've seen similar about "~600 MB platform update" which stuck somehow on 
F34/F33 (?)
the above fixed it

no dev here, but ...

> 1) How is your drive/system laid out regarding your paritions?
Fedora drive is a btrfs pool with subvolumes for /, /home, /home//DATA
~10 % of the disksize is for overprovisioning and not (!) in the pool

2 ssd's (one F34, second win 8.1)
1 external rotating HD (Backup)

see 1)
/home//DATA was grown as separat, esp. for new installs without need 
to shovel big data around (just unmount/unplug, (re-)install OS, remount)

> 4) Do you switch between OS(es)?
umh, no, I start Win 8.1 via vbox without special reboot into it. I just 
staying in Fedora
- boot files generated with:
VBoxManage internalcommands createrawvmdk -filename ./Win_RAW.vmdk -rawdisk

get a 500 GB SSD:

- often faster then 256
- to get ~10 % of the unused disk size for "overprovisioning" into your account

not for btrfs-automount-case.
but you {s,c]ould check with your script if the drive is mounted *before* 
backup starts.
And I would check if the mount point is still clean (in case the backup blindy 
backuped to the mount point without mounted drive)

upgrade report F34

2021-03-28 Thread old sixpack13
Hallo
as often(!!!) the last years I upgraded to F34 Beta.
the most things went smooth with [1].
some selinux troubleshooting needed

*Big* Thanks to all involved.

some thoughts, though:

1. gnome power (?) menu:
I would like to see a more "desktop user" friendly power menue.
I guess all normal user do either poweroff or restart, lesser switch user.
so it should be at the end of the menue, with poweroff at last and without 
additional "yes, I really want to shut down"

2. nautilus
I usually start home brewed scripts out of nautilus.
with F33 I could start them by double click.
okay, now there is a "run as a program", but somewhere in the menu (3rd 
position).
Q.: is double click somehow (re-)configurable ?

as mentioned above with the power menue:  
I first need to find the right entry in the menue and need to concentrate 
clicking the right one.
it also should be more user friendly:
one "blind" click on an exposed position in the menue (top/end) and the box 
shuts off or script runs; NOT long reading and concentrating 

some of the scripts generates their output to an file which usually is in same 
directory as the script.
now, all goes to /home/
tested it under gnome-Xorg with an "echo $(pwd) && read" in the script, it only 
turns out "/home/"
Q.: what to do here ? 

idea's ?

btw.:
- geeqie seg faults under wayland
- the new gcc throws some warnings during kernel compile compared with gcc 
under F33

AFAIK, flashdrives operates the same as ssd's.
while SSD's and pricey flashdrive (e.g. Sandisk Extreme) support the trim 
command to erase occupied space the sheaper flashdrives do not support trim, 
what means they get slower over time.
deleted contents still remains on that flashdrives what means writing new data 
leads to an erase/write cycle.

*I* long (not quick) format those slow flashdrives under windows.
- I currently don't know if the gnome disk has an equivalent for "long format", 
I guess it's the "fill with zero's thing" -

CRTL+F3 and dmesg shows what's up.
note:
I'm mostly running lastest homebrewed vanilla kernels (with GPU firmware 
loaded), currently 5.11. 
so I guess you will see this with fedora kernel 5.11 too (if not somehow 
patched away), cause this GPU hangs have a history. 
IMO, they were completely away around 5.9 (?) and came back with 5.10.x (?)
moons ago I tested with/without GPU FW on Fedora kernels: no differences

anyway, I'll test what @ED Greshko suggested.
