booting
by Patrick Dupre 03 May '14

03 May '14

Hello, After the installation of a new kernel (typically during an update). There is a change of the file /boot/grub2/grub.cfg. However, the new menuentry created is not correct. The new one include linux /vmlinuz-3.14.2-200.fc20.x86_64 root=/dev/mapper/VolGrpSys_DK1-root which wrong. I can change it manually. I cannot guess where the information is found! the set root='lvm/VolGrpSys_DK1-root' is correct It does not seem to be in /etc/grub.d/ It looks like that it takes it from another distribution installed on the machine, while any of the partition are mounted! Thank for your help. =========================================================================== Patrick DUPRÉ | | email: pdupre(a)gmx.com Laboratoire de Physico-Chimie de l'Atmosphère | | Université du Littoral-Côte d'Opale | | Tel.

simple scan 3.10.2, mustek 1200 CU scanner, and the lights are off but somebody's home
by Tim 03 May '14

03 May '14

Does anybody have a scanner that identifies as a Mustek 1200 CU (several scanners are this, under the hood), they they can try with the simple scan program? On my Fedora 20 computer, running the Mate desktop, the scanner light goes out shortly after it does the little test dance, and it scans the rest of the page with no lamp on. Yet, if I plug the scanner into a very old Fedora release, or CentOS, it works normally. It shouldn't scan unlit, there's no option for it, and it's not a scanner meant for scanning transparencies. -- tim@localhost ~]$ uname -rsvp Linux 3.13.10-200.fc20.i686 #1 SMP Mon Apr 14 21:00:56 UTC 2014 i686 All mail to my mailbox is automatically deleted, there is no point trying to privately email me, I will only read messages posted to the public lists.

Yum fails to install kernel-devel

yum -y update updated more than 11500 packages, because I had not run updates for quite a while. Everything installed except for kernel-devel. So, I downloaded the file directly from http://mirrors.kernel.org/fedora/updates/20/x86_64/kernel-devel-3.14.2-200.… then I ran yum -y install kernel-devel-3.14.2-200.fc20.x86_64.rpm Here is the info off the screen: # yum -y install kernel-devel-3.14.2-200.fc20.x86_64.rpm Loaded plugins: langpacks, refresh-packagekit Examining kernel-devel-3.14.2-200.fc20.x86_64.rpm: kernel-devel-3.14.2-200.fc20.x86_64 Marking kernel-devel-3.14.2-200.fc20.x86_64.rpm as an update to kernel-devel-3.11.10-100.fc18.x86_64 Marking kernel-devel-3.14.2-200.fc20.x86_64.rpm as an update to kernel-devel-3.13.6-200.fc20.x86_64 Resolving Dependencies --> Running transaction check ---> Package kernel-devel.x86_64 0:3.14.2-200.fc20 will be installed --> Finished Dependency Resolution Dependencies Resolved ============================================================================================================================ ==================================== Package Arch Version Repository Size ============================================================================================================================ ====================================Installing: kernel-devel x86_64 3.14.2-200.fc20 /kernel-devel-3.14.2-200.fc 20.x86_64 33 M Transaction Summary ============================================================================================================================ ====================================Install 1 Package Total size: 33 M Installed size: 33 M Downloading packages: Running transaction check Running transaction test Transaction test succeeded Running transaction Installing : kernel-devel-3.14.2-200.fc20.x86_64 Error unpacking rpm package kernel-devel-3.14.2-200.fc20.x86_64 error: unpacking of archive failed: cpio: mkdir Verifying : kernel-devel-3.14.2-200.fc20.x86_64 Failed: kernel-devel.x86_64 0:3.14.2-200.fc20 Complete! # Here are the sums of the file: # md5sum kernel-devel-3.14.2-200.fc20.x86_64.rpm 0d6418857d2c6ba112077a102d41d89e kernel-devel-3.14.2-200.fc20.x86_64.rpm # sha512sum kernel-devel-3.14.2-200.fc20.x86_64.rpm 39ccd42b2ff94e941dd75071004dc73011e98c8b092290f84d5c861c6b1614c1ca7c4d0fea3e13fd155f91bb2d6f2b47bc53c5c909f27aff607f54746acd 77be kernel-devel-3.14.2-200.fc20.x86_64.rpm

fail2ban on fc20
by David Mehler 02 May '14

Hello, Is anyone running fail2ban on fc20 with firewalld? I'm trying to get this working and finding a lot of bug reports on this but not an rpm that goes out of the box. I'd prefer not to have to revert to iptables but I want to stop brute force attempts. Thanks. Dave.
