Re: BTRFS partition corrupted after deleting files in /home

2021-01-03 Thread Andrej Podzimek via users
I don't know what happened, but I just logged into my system and deleted some unused files in my home directory. Just some directories. Suddenly everything on my system became read only. While rebooting I think I saw messages like: "BTRFS Error" I booted into a live environment to restore my

Re: OT: how to get shell status of first pipe shell command (when fail), not that of the last one

When I concatenate 2 or more shell command with pipe (|), I get only the status of last one. For example: "*some-cmd | logger -t "some-cmd messages:"; echo $?*" If "*some-cmd*" fail with status !=0 I get always status of last one, in this case 0 In my case if the first command fail, I must

Thanks for forwarding this. Just FYI, I have just filed a bug report, because it looks mire like a bug rather than a misconfiguration on my system: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1458524 If anyone happens to know what the problem could be, please update the bug report rather than

No Bluetooth mouse in sddm before first login

Hello, In Fedora 23, my Bluetooth mouse works fine in KDE. However, it doesn't work in sddm before the first user logs in. It works afterwards and keeps working even after the first (or second or whichever) user logs out. The very first login without a mouse is quite an inconvenience. Any

So here are the system logs generated by "journalctl -f" during a login attempt: https://andrej.podzimek.org/loginjournal.txt They capture (1) an unsuccessful authentication attempt where unix_chkpwd cannot be used by sddm-helper (!), then (2) a quick switch to a text console and back to sddm

I got a bit closer to the root cause of the problem: SDDM works and logs me in when I start it by simply running 'sddm' from a root shell. But it fails (with the symptoms described in this thread) when started using systemd. In what way can systemd be hurting sddm so that it can't log users in?

Hi, Because Anaconda doesn't support my usual partitioning scheme (root on Btrfs in LVM in LUKS in LVM in GPT, /boot on Btrfs, etc.), I created the entire layout manually and tried to install Fedora using dnf. The same layout works perfectly fine in ArchLinux. I basically followed this
