Good morning,
Yesterday I got a new ISP. I have a new email address and I changed my
email address in the Fedora Account System. I just checked it this
morning and the new address is still there. However this morning the
meeting announcements and test reports came to my old email address.
Fortunately I haven't discontinued that ISP with it's associated email
address yet.
What else do I need to change for the QA related email to come to me new
email address?
Have a Great Day!

Question to F39 who did a new install apart upgrade
by old sixpack13
since F38 it happens to me that the dir for the journals is filled up with a lot of small journals (~5 MB) and something regarding time
Is this still the case with F39 *new* installs (explicit *NOT* upgrades, e.g. F38 => F39)

Accented uppercase letters
by Alessio
I'm pretty sure that before Fedora 39, typing an accented character
(Italian keyboard) while the caps lock is active, will result in the
uppercase version of such accented character (i.e. è -> È).
It was an useful way to type accented capital letters instead of E'
Now it doesn't work anymore.
Or better, it doesn't work in many applications (i.e. Libreoffice,
Firefox, Evolution, GNOME Text Editor), but it works on Chrome or
Telegram.
What might be the cause?
Thanks,
A.

Fedora 39 (silverblue) doesn't suspend properly
by João Antonio
Suspending fedora silverblue 39 (rebased from 38) instead logs out of GNOME.
I don't see crashing logs.
I tried resetting gsettings via dconf Editor but it didn't solve the issue.

Memory usage
by Alessio
Hello.
I have a Fedora Workstation machine. I monitor it with check_mk.
Since the upgrade from 38 to 39, there is a constant warning about committed memory.
Total virtual memory: 14.85% - 2.03 GB of 13.68 GB, Committed: 129% -
17.72 GB of 13.68 GB virtual memory (warn/crit at 100.00%/150.00% used)
WARN
Well, I know that RAM usage is not so simple to interpret, and honestly
I don't understand it very well (what is committed memory?), but the
workload of the machine is exactly the same as before (I use such
computer to display a web page with Firefox, btw the situation does not
change if I close Firefox), and as you can see in the attached graph,
such committed memory usage started to grow the day I upgraded to
Fedora 39.
Any idea? Could it be a clue of some memory leak?
Thanks,
A.

Login in Gnome (GDM) not possible anymore; fallback to login screen
by Ilike linux
see also: https://discussion.fedoraproject.org/t/login-in-gnome-gdm-not-possible-an...
After system-upgrade to F39 I am not able to login into gnome with the
User I made the update.
What I did so far:
Tested an other user (inkl. new one) … this works.
Reset the Gnome Desktop to default, with the failing user sudo dconf
reset -f /org/gnome/ works not.
Changed from GDM to Lightdm, this works not.
Tried to open a Firefox from terminal, get an error :
firefox

(firefox:4568): dconf-CRITICAL **: 12:14:23.274: unable to create
directory ‘/run/user/1001/dconf’: Permission denied. dconf will not
work properly.
But Firefox opens anyway?

ligthdm log shows everything ok while logging in. But as mentioned the
User 1000 falls back to login.
What else could I test?
