fuse - permission denied (f20)
by Neal Becker
I know in the distant past we had a fuse group, but IIUC this is no longer
needed.
sshfs localhost: mnt
fuse: failed to open /dev/fuse: Permission denied
ls -l /dev/fuse
crw------- 1 root root 10, 229 Jul 31 03:42 /dev/fuse
What's wrong?

Perhaps off-topic -- multiple buffers in the command line?
by William Oliver
I apologize if this is not Fedora-specific, but I've got a desktop question. When I want to save some text, I'll highlight it and hit ctl-c or to copy it or ctl-v to paste it. Is there anything analogous to "named registers" in vim that will allow me to copy into different buffers (or, in vim, registers) so I can grab and paste from multiple instances?
If it makes a difference, I'm running Fedora 20 with KDE 4.

Affordable 802.11n USB dongle that IS supported in Fedora
by Robert Moskowitz
I spent 30 min going through all the 'clearance' open boxes at
MicroCenter today with my notebook, trying to see if any came up as
supported. None did. I went to the section with the unopen items and
found the Asus claiming Linux support. So much for that; looks like you
have to build it yourself and hope for the best.
So is there a USB 11n dongle that IS supported and can be had for <
$20? Actually an external antenna is a plus as it will be on a server
that at times will be a client and times an AP.

no such file or directory using "-" character
by Angelo Moreschini
Hi
I need to go inside a directory named <notebook-source>;
but I am not able to do it.
Using the command cd /.../notebook-source
I get the output :
"no such file or directory"
-----------
I tried to go around to the problem using the command ls :
if I use the command :
<ls notebook* > (using the wildchar *)
then I get the correct output:
"notebook-source".
but if I use the command :
<ls notebook-source >
then I get (again) the message
" no such file or directory"
Why this happen ?
=====
Seem that the problem is connected with the use of the character "-"
inside the name of the directory.... ; but I didn't know the character "-"
is forbidden to form nane of the files or directories..
What is my problem?
It is some thing that I dont know about the rules to form name of files and
directories ?
Regards
thank you

Hi Angelo,
probably: cd ~/notebook-source,
or directly: cd notebook-source???
What do you mean by "/.../"?
I guess, the leading /.../ is the culprit.
Joachim Backes
==========
Hi Joachim,
I wrote "/.../notebook-source" , only with purpose to indicate theFULL PATH
of the directory...
THING HOTHER...
I think the explanation of the problem have to be in some intrusion of
characters, ...how Neil says....
I tryed more.....:
I renamed the directory to notebook
------
I did this using Mautilus (the graphic interface)
------
BUT the problem was not solved.. (ALL IS HOW IT WAS BEFORE:
typing ls notebook
I get still no such file or directory )
I tried
ls -d notebook* | od -tx1
the result is :
0000000 62 6f 74 65 42 6f 6f 6b5f 696e 73 74 61 6c 6c
0000020 61 74 69 6f 6e 0a
0000026
I am not sure as it have to be interpretated
you help me to understand it ?
Thank you for your help

Serviio 1.4.1.2: Some id3 tags don't display
by Steven P. Ulrick
Hello, Everyone
I initially posted this question on the Serviio forum. But I did not
get any responses, and I still am having the problem. The following
email is re-constructed from my postings to the Serviio forum:
Part 1:
I am running Serviio 1.4.1.2 on a system with Fedora 20 Linux installed.
My issue is that the id3 tags from SOME mp3 files don't display on my
TV. Here is a step by step description of how Serviio behaves when the
id3 tags load, and when they don't:
Behavior when ID3 tags DON'T display:
1. Select mp3 file to play.
2. Wait a fairly long time for song to start playing.
3. Song starts playing, but...
4. No id3 tags display on the TV.
Behavior when ID3 tags DO display:
1. Select mp3 file to play.
2. Song starts playing immediately.
3. id3 tags display on TV as they are supposed to.
I don't have any issues with MP3's that I get from ripped CD's that I
own. The only issue is with SOME mp3's that I purchase from AmazonMP3. I
have discovered a workaround:
1. Remove offending MP3 files from media server.
2. Force Serviio to refresh itself.
3. Check log files to make sure that Serviio removed the offending files
from it's database.
4. Remove ALL id3 tags from MP3 files.
5. Rename the files using the new id3 tags.
6. Put back on media server and let Serviio refresh itself.
7. Result? id3 tags display perfectly on TV.
First I rename the files I removed from the media server to include all
of the id3 tags that I delete. Then I fill the id3 tag fields from the
file names, then rename according to my preferred style of renaming.
The two id3 tag editors that I use on Fedora Linux 20 are Easytag 2.2.1
& Puddletag 1.0.4.
The id3 tag libraries that Easytag and Puddletag use are as follows on
my system:
python-mutagen-1.20-6.fc20.noarch
libid3tag-0.15.1b-17.fc20.x86_64
id3lib-3.8.3-31.fc20.x86_64
taglib-1.9.1-5.fc20.x86_64
Part 2:
I just opened up, in a hex editor, two mp3 files that I purchased from
AmazonMP3. Both files do not display the id3 tags on my TV. They start
out like this:
ID3.....PIPRIV..
and
ID3.......PRIV..
Here is the first line of a MP3 that I purchased from AmazonMP3 where
the id3 tag used to NOT display on my TV. I have since fixed the issue
with this file using the method detailed in my original post on this
subject:
ID3......vTiT2..
Here is the first line in a hex editor, of an MP3 that I purchased from
AmazonMP3 that has worked PERFECTLY from the moment that I put it on my
media server:
ID3......&TALB
So far, the id3 tags that do NOT display properly in Serviio seem to
have "PRIV" or "PiPRIV" on the first line when I open the offending MP3
files in a hex editor.
Also, the first tag on the mp3's that I checked in a hex editor appears
almost at the very top. So far with perfect consistency, the first tag
on an offending MP3 file from AmazonMP3 starts at approximately line
offset "0000:2020"
Next time I purchase MP3's from Amazon, I will check them in a hex
editor before I play them with Serviio, to see if I can predict if an
MP3 will have it's id3 tags displayed correctly on Serviio.
Part 3:
I am still having this problem. I thought that I had fixed it the
following way:
1. Scan all my MP3's using a command line program called "eyeD3":
eyeD3 * | grep PRIV
2. If the above command showed any MP3's with the offending "PRIV" tag
field, I would run the following in the appropriate directory:
eyeD3 --remove-frame PRIV *.mp3
3. Sync my MP3's from their main location to my media server.
4. Voila! The tags were back!
Until tonight. So, I checked the new offending files, and they had no
PRIV tag frame. I then thought that maybe Serviio didn't see the changes
because the time stamp did not change. So, I ran "touch" on all the
offending MP3's that I discovered tonight. Synced them to the media
server, made sure that Serviio updated the files appropriately, with the
result that those files STILL have no tags...
So, I am stumped. Any help you can give me is greatly appreciated.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
So, any help any of you Fedora users that also happen to be using
Serviio that can help me permanently fix this is greatly appreciated!
Thank you,
Steven P. Ulrick
P.S.: I THINK that this email is being sent as plain text. If not, I do
apologize.

file system compatibility...
by Angelo Moreschini
Hi ,
I need to use an USB Hard Disk as repository; that is a "subversion
repository" that is used in a local network.
This means (for me) that the data wrote inside the HD can be used, in case
of emergency, bot on OS Linux both on OS Windows ....
Actually in this Hard Disk (that have ntfs file system) are stored data
writed from OS Windows XP; and I am not able to read (easily) this data in
OS Fedora.
Actually I can read only some directories there... :
- $RECYCLED BIN
- RECYCLER
- System Volume Information
As well it is not the best..., it is not very important for me to lose the
data actually wrote in this Hard Disk,
But I would be sure that IN THE FUTURE SHALL BE COMPOTIBILITY of usage
between Fedora and Windows..
i.e. *I could indifferently use the Hard Disk with Fedora and with Windos..*
*I think this if possible, using some File System that allow this
possibility, by the creation of a special partition on the HD.*
What I think is rigth ?
In case the answer is yes.. *with wich File System I have to format this
partition ??*
Thank you
Regards

Using wodim - get error opening /dev/sr0
by Michael Eager
I'm trying to use wodim to write or blank a cdrom. When I execute
$ sudo wodim dev=/dev/sr0 blank=all
I get the following error:
Error trying to open /dev/sr0 exclusively (Device or resource busy)... retrying
The same thing happens when I use K3B. It says it cannot get exclusive
control over the device.
I can't find any process which is using /dev/sr0. fuser returns nothing.
Any idea how to find what is locking /dev/sr0, or how to allow wodim to
write to the CD?
