FreeIPA on Fedora and dnf system-upgrade

by Ian Pilcher

I am currently running FreeIPA on CentOS 7, and I am considering moving it to Fedora. On RHEL and derivatives, in-place upgrades are not supported. It is necessary to provision a new server, running the new OS version, add it as a FreeIPA replica, and then decommission the old system. How does this work on Fedora? Will I be able to use dnf system-upgrade, or will I find myself having to use the process described above? -- ======================================================================== Google Where SkyNet meets Idiocracy ========================================================================

Restarting video driver to turn on external vga port

by Robert Moskowitz

I have a Lenovo x140e running F38. The video driver is normally the Radeon, but some time ago here I was told to change the amdgpu driver but lspci -nnk | grep -iE "VGA|DISPLAY" -A3 00:01.0 VGA compatible controller [0300]: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. [AMD/ATI] Kabini [Radeon HD 8330] [1002:9832] Subsystem: Lenovo Device [17aa:2219] Kernel driver in use: amdgpu Kernel modules: radeon, amdgpu But sometimes after a few suspend/unsuspend when remote and no external VGA, this system forgets about the external monitor. Is there someway to force the video driver to wake up and see the attached vga monitor? thanks

Remote desktop on headless server?

by Matthew Saltzman

Hi, all- I would like to set up a workstation in a network closet with no monitor or keyboard attached and run a (GNOME shell) desktop session from another machine on the local network. What's the best way to do that in Fedora 38, and is there a good source of documentation someplace? The GNOME desktop sharing facility requires that the connection be to an active session logged in on the console. Googling hasn't been much help for recent distros. TIA. -- Matthew Saltzman School of Mathematical and Statistical Sciences Clemson University mjs AT clemson DOT edu

Nvidia Driver Turned Off?

by Stephen Morris

Hi, When we issue the command "sudo dnf upgrade" and it updates the nvidia drivers, does the update of those drivers remove them from memory and load the nouveau drivers? I'm trying to understand why after doing the update a html 5 game that requires hardware acceleration to run complained that hardware acceleration was needed even though the browser was configured to use hardware acceleration if available, but after a reboot the game then ran fine in the browser. regards, Steve

help with QEMM

by Robert Moskowitz

I have an old Fedora 21 image that I use for one old program I like. It did not survive the migration to F38 and I was given the following to get it working: virsh create /home/rgm/Documents/f21-qemm.xml This works, as long as qemm is not running. But it does not survive system boots. Something about this being a transient domain? So with each system boot, where everything nicely restarts, I have to shut down qemm, run the above, and restart qemm. How can I make this a permanent domain? thanks

journal / systemd colours ?

by lejeczek

Hi guys. I wonder if somebody might know how to customize, to change systemd journal's colours? I'm specifically thinking of changing 'WARN' warnings which get - in my opinion unfortunate, for I use other than white background colours - painted in yellow. many thanks, L.

How to setup Steam on Fedora 37??

by Michael D. Setzer II

I'm not a gamer, but brother has steam on a Windows 7 machine that he just got a message that Steam is dropping support for Windows 7 in about 6 months? Knew that there is steam on Linux, but have run into problems? 1. I had a similar machine to his windows 7 system, except it just has onboard video versus his machine that has a $450 video card he got years ago. Installed the Steam, and it seemed to install just fine. Logged into his account, and downloaded one of his games that required a 60G download. Then went to play it, and it gives a message about requiring DirectX 10.1? Doesn't give any other info. Tried dnf, but it doesn't seem to have anything about DirectX?? Not a steam user, so not sure if the Steam that it installed is native to Linux, or if it is somehow linked to wine? Machine has winehq installed. Seen a number of pages that talk about Steam with Unbunta, but I've got 5 Fedora 37 systems, but if that version of Linux is better, I could rebuild it, but would prefer to use Fedora. Did find one page that seems to talk about Fedora 38, have issues with Steam, and that it is being worked on?? Hoping that there is just some package(s) that need to be installed to get it to work? Or can the windows version be installed with winehq. There was a playonlinux package, but it reported lots of issue with winehq and conflicting with wanting to install wine version 7.xx. Figure that must be some gamers here that would know what best option is. Thanks. +------------------------------------------------------------+ Michael D.
