Although my system isn't quite working with Wayland, I want to keep
playing with it. How do I tell it to save a change in the order of the
displays? Right now, I have to use preferences -> displays with each
login. With "regular Gnome", I used an xrandr commmand to order the
monitors.

Hi,
This would be a great idea, but I would like to have only as an
opportunity, to create full image backup or files to the user local
storage, or cloud storage along within some 'Hiren's boot cd'-like
tools from the boot menu.
Earlier we have given such tools, but never the opportunity to have

Off-topic, but do you consider using a 1TB or 4TB "/" partition to be a
reasonable idea? I don't.

I'm unable to obtain a user-readable core file from a user
application under Fedora 21. The core files are being saved
under /var/lib/systemd/coredump, and are owned by root.
None of the configuration changes I've made to
/etc/systemd/coredump.conf appear to make any difference.

I must copy a dir with some file with 'i' attribute set, but rsync (or

See this little example:
