External USB3.0 HDD not working on Intel H87 (C2)
by ppq
Hi there,
I'm having trouble using my HDD on my F19 PC. I tried several USB3.0 ports.
The HDD does not make clicking sounds like it gets not enough power, the
noises are normal.
The drive is being detected, but there's no device file:
http://paste.fedoraproject.org/40955/
This is the hardware I use: Asus H87M-E (C2) with newest BIOS, Intel
Core i7-4770S and 8 GB Corsair DDR3-1600 RAM.
First I thought it's the USB3.0 bug that many Intel chipsets of the C1
revision have, so I checked - I definitely have a board with a C2 chipset.
Everything works fine on my ThinkPad Edge E135 with F19, so this is how
it should look like: http://paste.fedoraproject.org/40764/
Using a live system (F19, too) on my PC, the HDD works "a little" (i.e.
very slow), while dmesg looks like this:
http://paste.fedoraproject.org/40778/
I'm always using the same cable.
Any ideas on how to fix this are very much appreciated. :)
Regards,
ppq

More UUID madness
by Mark Haney
I posted an issue I was having booting a new install of F19 on my Samsung netbook. It seems that my system cannot find the disks by UUID for some reason. The way I fixed this before was to edit grub to use the device name /dev/sda5 (which is /boot) instead of UUID. Some people replied that I needed to make sure that my system UUID matched what grub was trying to use. I've attached a copy of the UUIDs (from blkid) and from /boot/grub2/grub.cfg. I did another fresh install of F19, reformatted the partitions again and still had the same problem. So I booted back into my LiveUSB image and pulled the data from blkid and and grub.cfg. So, what do I do now?
I noticed in the boot params there's a '--fs-uuid' switch, can I remove that and specify /dev/sda5 instead? I know so little about the newest boot process that I'm flailing here. Help!
Thanks.

USB memory stick - where?
by Timothy Murphy
If I install a memory stick in a Fedora-19 laptop,
is there a simple command that will tell me
where it is on the filesystem, eg /dev/sdb1 ?
I know I can find this indirectly,
but is there eg a switch to lsusb that will tell me?

NetBeans on Fedora-19?
by Timothy Murphy
Is netbeans-platform the same as the old netbeans package?
If so, why change the name?
If not, is netbeans available on a yum repository?

Re: [Spice-devel] progress on virt-viewer for windows

I tried only digest-md5. I guess most people would use either that or
Kerberos.
Is the "authentication type 1" from the error message a libvirtd
authentication type or a SASL one?
I was not able to setup "polkit" on the host. It complains about a
missing agent. For libvirtd, the auth options are "none", "sasl" and
"polkit". When I manage to get "polkit" working for a linux client, I'll
try on the windows port.

firewalld equivalent of iptabled --sport?
by Richard Shaw
I have a HDHomeRun (network based TV tuner) on my home network. In order to
get it to work I had to add the following to my iptables config:
-A INPUT -m state --state NEW -m udp -p udp --sport 5002 -j ACCEPT
-A INPUT -m state --state NEW -m udp -p udp --sport 5004 -j ACCEPT
-A INPUT -m state --state NEW -m udp -p udp --sport 65001 -j ACCEPT
Which from my limited knowledge of how iptables work, is the opposite of
what you usually do for most services (--dport) because in this case the
the return port is random.
I have not been able to find any setting in firewall-config or in the
documentation that mentions source ports, only destination ports.
If this is not possible it would appear to be a fairly large flaw in
firewalld in general.
Thanks,
Richard

Printer discovery broken after "server" upgraded to Fedora 19
by Richard Shaw
I recently did a fedup upgrade from 18->19 on my desktop computer which
also happens to be the print server for my HP Photosmart 6515.
After upgrading my wife's laptop (F18) can no longer discover the printer.
I tried shutting down the firewall (firewalld) to make sure that wasn't the
problem on both computers and restarting cups & avahi-daemon to no avail.
I noticed that the new cups put a cupsd.conf.rpmnew files in /etc/cups so I
reviewed the changes and the only major difference for discovery at least
is dropping CUPS and going only with dnssd. I replaced my conf with the
package one but no dice.
I searched bugzilla to some extent but didn't find anything that seemed to
be my exact problem.
Ideas?
Thanks,
Richard

F19 Cinnamon Desktop
by Georg Hess
Hello alltogether,
I'm facing an oddity with the Cinnamon Desktop:
I set up a new machine running on Fedora 19 yesterday and installed the
Cinnamon Desktop via
'yum groupinstall cinnamon-desktop-environment'
and it installed all correctly.
So much for the good part.
Today I tried to 'yum update' and got the warning:
Warning: Environment Group cinnamon-desktop-environment does not exist.
So I tried
[root@myMachine tmp]# yum groupinfo cinnamon-desktop-environment
Loaded plugins: langpacks
Environment Group: Cinnamon Desktop
Environment-Id: cinnamon-desktop-environment
Description: Cinnamon provides a desktop with a traditional layout,
advanced features, easy to use, powerful and flexible.
Mandatory Groups:
base-x
cinnamon-desktop
core
dial-up
fonts
guest-desktop-agents
hardware-support
input-methods
multimedia
printing
standard
Optional Groups:
+3d-printing
+libreoffice
but on the other hand I got:
[root@myMachine tmp]# yum groupinstall "Cinnamon Desktop"
Loaded plugins: langpacks
Warning: environment Cinnamon Desktop does not exist.
No packages in any requested group available to install or update
and
[root@myMachine tmp]# yum groupinstall cinnamon-desktop-environment
Loaded plugins: langpacks
Warning: environment cinnamon-desktop-environment does not exist.
No packages in any requested group available to install or update
So now I'm slightly confused about this.
Google says nothing yet and there is nothing about this in the
release-notes of F19.
Thank you in advance and Greetings

Status of fstrim & MD-RAID
by Jorge Fábregas
Hi,
Does fstrim work with md-raid devices these days with Fedora 19 out of
the box? I would like to use 2 SSDs (in RAID-1) & wondered about trim
support.
I couldn't find any fedora-storage mailing list :(
Thanks,
Jorge
