Timezones and SELinux...
by Marko Vojinovic 28 Mar '12

28 Mar '12

Hi folks! // This is a repost from the KDE mailing list, with the hope that more eyes will see it here... // After the yum update, both before and after the restart of the system (there was a new kernel as well), my timezone setting is wrong (again) --- it is set to Lisbon (GMT), which was my previous setting, rather than Belgrade (GMT+1) which was my current setting (prior to update). AFAIK, this should not happen unless I ask for the timezone change. Second, when I open systemsettings to change the timezone, after clicking "apply" and giving the root password, the timezone change fails, and SELinux gives an alert: ===== long quote ===== SELinux is preventing /usr/libexec/kde4/kcmdatetimehelper from using the dac_override capability. ***** Plugin dac_override (91.4 confidence) suggests *********************** If you want to help identify if domain needs this access or you have a file with the wrong permissions on your system Then turn on full auditing to get path information about the offending file and generate the error again. Do Turn on full auditing # auditctl -w /etc/shadow -p w Try to recreate AVC. Then execute # ausearch -m avc -ts recent If you see PATH record check ownership/permissions on file, and fix it, otherwise report as a bugzilla. ***** Plugin catchall (9.59 confidence) suggests *************************** If you believe that kcmdatetimehelper should have the dac_override capability by default. Then you should report this as a bug. You can generate a local policy module to allow this access.

In the past I would put SELinux into permissive mode, change the timezone, and then re-enforce SELinux. But the issue keeps reappearing, so I don't believe that this is the right solution. Ideas?

WTH is wrong with PackageKit?
by Mark Haney 28 Mar '12

Why is it that PackageKit is sitting in the background constantly leaving me pretty much unable to install any software from the command line? Did I configure something to make it do that?

Hello list, I can read here: http://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/Fedora/16/html/Release_Notes/sect-Relea… the following: 3.2.4. rc.local no longer packaged The |/etc/rc.d/rc.local| local customization script is no longer included by default. Administrators who need this functionality merely have to create this file, make it executable, and it will run on boot. Upgrades are not affected by this change. However, in my system this isn't happening. [skorzen@g62 ~]$ ls -l /etc/rc.d/rc.local -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 543 Mar 24 22:11 /etc/rc.d/rc.local [skorzen@g62 ~]$ cat /etc/rc.d/rc.local #!/bin/sh -e # # rc.local # # This script is executed at the end of each multiuser runlevel. # Make sure that the script will "exit 0" on success or any other # value on error. # # In order to enable or disable this script just change the execution # bits. # # By default this script does nothing. #exit 0 ## Defaults brightness to maximum. echo 10 > /sys/class/backlight/acpi_video0/brightness ## Enables mousepad tapping in LXDE. synclient TapButton1=1 ## Enables mousepad vertical scrolling in LXDE. synclient VertEdgeScroll=1 #exit 0 However, if I run the file manually, it loads OK. Can you please give me a tip on this? Best regards, -- *Bruno Martins* bruno(a)member.fsf.org <mailto:bruno@member.fsf.org>

dual monitors - one desktop image spanning both?
by Wolfgang S. Rupprecht 28 Mar '12

Is it possible to get one backdrop image in F16 to span both monitors in a dual-monitor setup? I'm using xfce4 and the desktop settings tool seems to only offer a per-monitor image selection. Is there some way of selecting one image perhaps from gconfig directly? Ditto for the login screen. Having the same cloned Verne image on both monitors is kind of lame. It would look a lot nicer if one image spanned both monitors. -wolfgang -- g+: https://plus.google.com/114566345864337108516/about

parallel bash scripts
by bruce 28 Mar '12

hi. got a couple of test bash scripts. dog.sh, cat.sh each script runs the underlying php in an endless loop. I'm trying to figure out how to run the scripts in parallel, from the same parent shell script. something like: test.sh dog.sh > &2 cat.sh > &2 where dog.sh would be : -------------------------------- while true do pgrep dog if [ $? -ne 0 ] then /dog.php fi sleep 5 done my current tests, run dog.sh, which runs the dog.php ... but the test never gets to run cat.sh thoughts/comments... thanks

Using CPAN to update perl modules
by Mark Haney 27 Mar '12

27 Mar '12

This may sound kinda silly, but it's the first time I've ever really encountered this before. I'm finding I have a need to update some perl modules that aren't yet packaged by Fedora. Is using CPAN to update them going to cause any problems? Are there any caveats to using CPAN to install other modules not packaged in RPM form? -- Mark Haney Software Developer/Consultant AB Emblem markh(a)abemblem.com Linux marius.homelinux 3.3.0-4.fc16.x86_64 GNU/Linux
