wireshark installed but not available
by Robert Moskowitz 08 Apr '14

08 Apr '14

I installed wireshark on my F20/Gnome notebook, and yum has kept it updated: ]# grep wire yum* Jan 08 12:34:15 Installed: wireshark-1.10.5-1.fc20.x86_64 Feb 01 20:15:51 wireshark-1.10.5-2.fc20.x86_64: 100 Feb 01 22:06:04 Updated: wireshark-1.10.5-2.fc20.x86_64 Feb 27 13:16:45 Updated: wireshark-1.10.5-3.fc20.x86_64 Mar 21 19:09:59 Updated: wireshark-1.10.6-1.fc20.x86_64 Mar 28 18:31:25 Updated: wireshark-1.10.6-2.fc20.x86_64 Wireshark does not show as an application. I don't see a bin for wireshark, only a bunch of libs. What may be missing here?

Fwd: Status on CVE-2014-0160, aka "Heartbleed"
by Ed Greshko 08 Apr '14

08 Apr '14

FYI.... -------- Original Message -------- Subject: Status on CVE-2014-0160, aka "Heartbleed" Date: Mon, 7 Apr 2014 23:01:24 -0400 (EDT) From: Robyn Bergeron <rbergero(a)redhat.com> Reply-To: users(a)lists.fedoraproject.org To: announce(a)lists.fedoraproject.org Greetings, Fedora community: We're aware of the recently disclosed CVE-2014-0160 (aka "Heartbleed"): https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1085065 (openssl) https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1085066 (mingw-openssl) The issue affects the currently supported Fedora 19 and Fedora 20 releases. Updates for openssl packages are available now, and mirrors near you will receive them shortly. If you do not want to wait for your local mirror to get updates, you can retrieve and install packages directly: For Fedora 19 x86_64: yum -y install koji koji download-build --arch=x86_64 openssl-1.0.1e-37.fc19.1 yum localinstall openssl-1.0.1e-37.fc19.1.x86_64.rpm For Fedora 20 x86_64: yum -y install koji koji download-build --arch=x86_64 openssl-1.0.1e-37.fc20.1 yum localinstall openssl-1.0.1e-37.fc20.1.x86_64.rpm Substitute i686 for 32-bit systems, or armv7hl for ARM systems (F20 only). Package updates for mingw-openssl will receive fixes shortly and we'll update the community when they are available. Note that Fedora 18, which is no longer supported by the Fedora community, is also affected by this issue. Fedora 17 and previous releases, also no longer supported, are not affected by this issue. Fedora Release Engineering is currently regenerating AMIs and qcow2/kvm images to include the fix. The Fedora Infrastructure team is working to assess any additional impact, and will update the community as we develop more information. Thanks for your patience as we work on this issue. ACKNOWLEDGMENTS: Special thanks to Dennis Gilmore for quickly providing package updates, and Major Hayden for providing the manual update guidance above. -Robyn Bergeron -- announce mailing list announce(a)lists.fedoraproject.org https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/announce -- Getting tired of non-Fedora discussions and self-serving posts

xwayland lands in xorg
by Matthew Miller 07 Apr '14

07 Apr '14

Since this was a big conversation from last week's 5tFTW, I thought it worth noting this blog post, which goes into a lot of detail: http://blog.mecheye.net/2014/04/xwayland/ It's not very Fedora specific so it probably won't make this week's note, but I think there is some interest here. http://blog.mecheye.net/2014/04/xwayland/ -- Matthew Miller -- Fedora Project -- <mattdm(a)fedoraproject.org> "Tepid change for the somewhat better!"

Hi, I have been trying to convert pdf to eps using pdf2ps -eps file.pdf but I get the following: Unknown switch -eps - ignoring Unknown switch -eps - ignoring I seem to think that this worked just fine a month ago, but maybe I used some other switch. What am I doing wrong? I am on Fedora 20, all updated as of last night (21:00 CDT).

CPU / GPU fan control
by Rafnews 07 Apr '14

07 Apr '14

Hi, i didn't get any answer regarding the FAN control of my CPU/GPU to avoid it to run at 100% all the time, when i'm just watching a movie or reading on internet. where can find some good information about it ? i read something about powersaving tool with thinkfan but i don't know why it doesn't seem to work...and powertools are terminal commands as far as i understood. so have you already solved something like that before ? does it really work ? thx. -- Alain ----------------------------------------------------------- Windows 7 x64 / Fedora 20 x64 MySQL 5.6.x Apache 2.4.7 / OpenSSL 1.0.1c Tomcat 7.17 PHP 5.5

Can't read CTR while initializing i8042
by Amadeus W.M. 06 Apr '14

06 Apr '14

I have this old Dell Inspiron 2650 with a dual boot Fedora 12 and XP and I want to upgrade Fedora to 20. When I boot from the installation dvd I get this message: [ 13.167548] i8042: Can't read CTR while initializing i8042 then it continues to boot and I get to the first installer screen (welcome to Fedora 20, select language) but as one might expect, I can't select anything neither with the mouse nor with the keyboard. I get the exact message when I try to boot up Fedora 12 and I have the exact problem, neither mouse nor keyboard works. They work before booting up Fedora (e.g. in the bios) and also in XP, so it's not (entirely) a hardware problem. I don't remember if it ever worked in F12, but at least I was obviously able to install it. I did do a google search on this and some posts said it's a false, inconsequential error, others provided kernel patches, others messed with the bios. Only thing I can do in the bios is change the boot order, set the time and disable the parallel port. Any suggestions? Some kernel options? Thanks!

honestly, what in the name of mutt is so slow about fedora rawhide?
by Robert P. J. Day 05 Apr '14

05 Apr '14

following up on my recent posts about how painfully, excruciatingly, nad-grindingly, thigh-suckingly slow firefox is on fedora rawhide, well, nothing's changed. when i do something as simple as switch tabs, i can go fix myself a martini while waiting. so ... what can i do to debug this? i'm using a non-debug kernel, i have nothing else of any significance running, "top" doesn't show anything else hogging resources ... so now what? if i recall correctly, fedora 20 worked just fine, while i wouldn't wish fedora rawhide on someone holding me up at gunpoint. please ... thoughts? rday -- ======================================================================== Robert P.

in regard to my system fans picking up speed
by c. marlow 05 Apr '14

05 Apr '14

I posted earlier about my fans running a bit hard when I open firefox. I deleted the emails on accident so im sorry im having to make this a new topic. But I dont think my system ran hard on Ubuntu. ( but I used KDE then) but it seems like when I log in to MATE on F20 my fans pick up more of a bit faster speed than on the log in screen. I have cleaned the cobwebs out and everything earlier towards the last part of march but here is my Sensors readings: localhost.localhost Release Kernel Linux 3.13.7-200.fc20.i686 mate 1.6.2 HARDWARE: Memory 2.0 GB Processor 0: Intel Core Due CPU e7500 @ 2.93 GB Processor 1: same as above Avail disk space: 206.8 GB memory in use now 488.1 swap 23.0 mb chris@localhost ~$ sensors coretemp-isa-0000 Adapter: ISA adapter Core 0: +39.0°C (high = +76.0°C, crit = +100.0°C) Core 1: +39.0°C (high = +76.0°C, crit = +100.0°C) it8718-isa-0290 Adapter: ISA adapter in0: +1.06 V (min = +0.00 V, max = +4.08 V) in1: +1.92 V (min = +0.00 V, max = +4.08 V) in2: +3.33 V (min = +0.00 V, max = +4.08 V) +5V: +2.94 V (min = +0.00 V, max = +4.08 V) in4: +0.46 V (min = +0.00 V, max = +2.10 V) in5: +4.08 V (min = +0.00 V, max = +4.08 V) ALARM in6: +4.08 V (min = +0.00 V, max = +4.08 V) ALARM in7: +3.09 V (min = +0.00 V, max = +4.08 V) Vbat: +3.17 V fan1: 2089 RPM (min = 10 RPM) fan2: 2213 RPM (min = 10 RPM) temp1: -55.0°C (low = +127.0°C, high = +127.0°C) sensor = thermistor temp2: -2.0°C (low = +127.0°C, high = +127.0°C) sensor = thermistor temp3: +32.0°C (low = +127.0°C, high = +60.0°C) sensor = thermal diode cpu0_vid: +1.100 V intrusion0: OK chris@localhost ~$ Thanks, Christopher M
