Building FF from source
by JD 09 Jul '15

Hi All, has anyone built FF from source RPM? I tried, and it requires much older versions of things. Why is that?

F22 Atomic networking failure in OpenStack (A regression from F21!)
by Erik Swanson (eriswans) 09 Jul '15

09 Jul '15

So, in an OpenStack environment I'm trying to use, F22 Atomic can't get an IP/routing info, but F21 Atomic *can*. The first sign that something's up is a non-trivial pause on "A start job is running for Network Manager Wait Online", followed by cloud-init failing: [ 36.377396] cloud-init[721]: 2015-07-09 20:48:49,254 - util.py[WARNING]: Route info failed: Unexpected error while running command. The complete boot log of the F22 failure is here: http://pastie.org/private/1qikbe1hu328ajszohq5a What's interesting is that F21 Atomic comes up fine, in a completely identical environment. A boot log of F21 succeeding is here: http://pastie.org/private/ogopev1kbrf5y3lyahhqba The instances are identical in absolutely every way, except for the image. I have repeated the same result multiple times: F21 always comes up successfully, F22 always fails. Is this something I should file in a bug report? Is there any way I can get any more debug info on what's happening with F22? (Please keep in mind that because it never brings its networking up, it won't see any user-data scripts I try to inject, nor can I log in to its console.) — Erik Swanson

Nvidia issue in fedora 22
by fedora2015 09 Jul '15

09 Jul '15

Hello, I am using an Asus EN210 geforce 210 VGA card. I have akmod-nvidia-340xx installed. Since the last two kernel updates, whenever I try run Nvidia X server settings, I get the following error message: "You do not appear to be using the NVIDIA X driver. Please edit your X configuration file (just run `nvidia-xconfig` as root), and restart the X server." When I do that in terminal, I get the following error message: "WARNING: Unable to locate/open X configuration file. New X configuration file written to '/etc/X11/xorg.conf." It makes no difference. I also reverted back to 304xx, which doesn't work at all. Any input would be appreciated. Thanks!

Is there a way to re-config / rebuild the kernel so that it will drop into kdbg on the console?

hfsplus-tools conflicts with hfsplusutils
by JD 07 Jul '15

07 Jul '15

Conflict between hpfsplusutils and hpfsplus-tools because both provide the /usr/bin/fsck.hfsplus however, hpfsplusutils has a more complete set of tools than hpfsplus-tools Why must we give up one set of useful tools in order to have a more limited set of tools? # yum install hfsplusutils.x86_64 hfsutils.x86_64 Loaded plugins: langpacks, refresh-packagekit Resolving Dependencies --> Running transaction check ---> Package hfsplusutils.x86_64 0:1.0.4-19.fc20 will be installed ---> Package hfsutils.x86_64 0:3.2.6-24.fc20 will be installed --> Processing Conflict: hfsplus-tools-540.1.linux3-4.fc20.x86_64 conflicts hfsplusutils --> Finished Dependency Resolution Error: hfsplus-tools conflicts with hfsplusutils-1.0.4-19.fc20.x86_64 You could try using --skip-broken to work around the problem You could try running: rpm -Va --nofiles --nodigest So, I tried to remove hfsplus-tools, and that would result in the removal of dependencies anaconda initial-setup This is something the devs overlooked?

I finally had some cycles to open the laptop and cleanup up the old dried up grease off the cpu and the heat sink and applied the arctic silver. I smeared it in thin sheet on both the cpu and the heat sink's contact surface. I buttoned the thing back up and installed fc20 from DVD iso. All went well during the install. I booted and opened the file browser to browse the boot drive. No problems. I immediately opened the file browser again to seperately browse another drive and it crashed instantly after the gui of the 2nd file browser came up. I uploaded the screen image of crash message to https://www.sendspace.com/file/exy97h I noticed that during the installation of fc20, the air coming out of the exhaust vent was almost scalding if I kept my finger there for about a minute or so. By scalding, I mean if I had touched a metal surface of that temperature for say 30 seconds, I would have felt some pain. Also, I noticed that the cooling fan remained at normal operating speed, instead of spinning faster, as I usually hear it spin fast for about a few seconds when I power it on. So, I am not sure whether the problem is the fan or the cpu. P.S: I also ran the memtest 86 full tests of 1 pass. I installed fc20 after it had reached somewhere near the middle of pass 2. It had detected no errors. 10 hours had passed since I had started the memtest86. I am not sure if each pass would run different tests. Perhaps someone can expand on that.

block diagram interpretation
by Chris Murphy 07 Jul '15

07 Jul '15

I'm looking at reducing my dependency on dual booting and VMs to run Fedora and am thinking of an Intel NUC or possibly a Minnowboard (or maybe both and eventually setup glusterfs). Page 17, figure 3 show a block diagram of a candidate board http://downloadmirror.intel.com/23090/eng/D54250WYB_D34010WYB_TechProdSpec0… What I'm wondering is, there are four USB connectors, two front, two back. Each pair is represented with a single block with two arrows to the CPU. Do the two arrow implies two distinct buses? i.e. each of the four connectors offers 5Gbps bandwidth? In contrast, there's also two USB 2.0 ports in the front, noted as both dual-port, and with a single arrow to the CPU, which suggests to me it's a single 480Mbps bus shared between two connectors. Then on page 24, the text description says even less than the diagram suggests: The board supports eight USB ports. All eight ports are high-speed, full-speed, and low-speed capable. The port arrangement is as follows: • USB 3.0 ports:  Two front panel USB 3.0 ports are implemented through an external connector (blue)  Two ports are implemented with vertical back panel connectors (blue) Thanks, -- Chris Murphy
