mcelog error output going to all open terminals

Hi all; I've been seeing mcelog errors since a few updates back. After much, much digging it seems that the mcelog errors are due to spikes in cpu temperature. I have a Thinkpad x1 Carbon 4th generation running Fedora 25 - KDE I get why I'm seeing the cpu temp spikes since it usually happe

New NVIDIA card with F26?

Hi All; Apologies in advance for cross posting, I posted this question to the Fedora KDE list as well. I just purchased the below system online from Lenovo, did a bit of research and it seems like it should all work but I cut the research short and ordered it mostly because I have a seriou

Re: unexpected dual monitor behavior

I believe this is expected behavior based on my experience. I think you have to go into the display settings (under system settings in KDE) and specify if you want mirrored (unified) displays. On 01/16/2017 09:23 AM, Paolo Galtieri wrote: I have a laptop to which I have attached an external m

VMware Workstation vs KVM

Hi All; I'm running Fedora 25 on a laptop with 16GB of ram. I'm frustrated with the VMware workstation reliably breaking every 2 to 3 kernel updates and sometimes with no reasonable fix in sight for some time. Not the end of the world and I get the reasons behind it, however I wonder if KVM m
