NFS URLs in Nautilus on Fedora 22 stopped working
by Ranbir 26 Jan '16

26 Jan '16

Hi Everyone, I don't know or how, but I can no longer browse nfs shares from Nautilus. If I type in a NFS URLs, Nautilus immediatly says it's not recognized. All of my NFS bookmarks stopped working, too. My NFS server is running just fine. This seems to be a "problem" on the Fedora end. Was there a recent, undocumented change to the Nautilus code? Is it a bug? I can't find anything on Internet about this. Regards, Ranbir -- Ranbir

WARNING regarding 4.3.x kernel
by Cristian Sava 26 Jan '16

26 Jan '16

I have a F23 server with minimal working X (no desktop). All was working well with kernel-4.2.x With kernel-4.3.x I get (in xterm): [a53@s ~]$ su -c virt-manager Password: [a53@s ~]$ No protocol specified Unable to init server: Could not connect: Connection refused (virt-manager:54862): Gtk-CRITICAL **: gtk_settings_get_for_screen: assertion 'GDK_IS_SCREEN (screen)' failed [a53@s ~]$ journalctl gives: kernel: virt-manager[8896]: segfault at 0 ip 00007f612fce78a9 sp 00007ffe5a45e580 error 4 in libgtk-3.so.0.1800.6[7f612fa2d000+710000] kernel: BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0000000000000060 Searching the web I discovered that during years this error shows up from time to time across different distributions (including Fedora). This time it seems to be kernel related and does not show up with Gnome. C.S

Kernel update
by jarmo 26 Jan '16

26 Jan '16

How come I can save my kernel 4.2.8-300 not to be cleaned. It's now last properly working kernel for me. Dnf update brings every now and then new kernel and cleans older ones. I'd like to save this working, so far, when I find new ones working. I know to set in dnf.conf installonly_limit=# higher, so helps while, but for setting it 10 is not wise :). Where is set that "rescue" kernel? Dnf does not clean that. Any help? Jarmo Fedora 23 in use with XFCE -- конец

texlive
by Beartooth 25 Jan '16

25 Jan '16

I'm doing dnf upgrade on F23. Like many other times, it's updating some humongous number of items involving texlive; It must be a huge program. Afaik, I have never used texlive at all. Unless some other app calls it, I seem to be wasting a lot of space -- and maybe exposing my machine to a lot of hazards that I'm not competent even to study. Is there some reason I don't see to keep this enormous app, or would I be better off just telling dnf to remove it?? -- Beartooth Staffwright, Neo-Redneck Not Quite Clueless Power User Remember I have precious (very precious!) little idea where up is.

Screen freezes on Fedora 23, new system
by John Maheu 25 Jan '16

25 Jan '16

I am getting random screen freezes in which the mouse still moves around but the mouse button and keyboard do not work. If youtube is playing the music continues on. Before a freeze everything works fine. It may work for 1 minute or 1 hour after a reboot and a freeze does not seem to depend on what desktop application I am running. When this happens I always see the following in the log files. kernel: DMAR: DRHD: handling fault status reg 2 Jan 24 16:41:19 kernel: DMAR: INTR-REMAP: Request device [[00:00.1] fault index 2b INTR-REMAP:[fault reason 38] Blocked an interrupt request due to source-id verification failure kernel: DMAR: INTR-REMAP: Request device [[00:00.0] fault index 27 INTR-REMAP:[fault reason 38] Blocked an interrupt request due to source-id verification failure Jan 24 16:41:20 /usr/libexec/gdm-x-session[2491]: Successfully activated service 'org.gnome.evolution.dataserver.Calendar7' Jan 24 16:41:20 kernel: DMAR: DRHD: handling fault status reg 202 Jan 24 16:41:20 kernel: DMAR: INTR-REMAP: Request device [[00:00.1] fault index 2b INTR-REMAP:[fault reason 38] Blocked an interrupt request due to source-id verification failure I can ssh in. I need to reboot to get things working again. Any idea what this means and how to fix it? The system is new: Dell Precision Tower 7910 Dual Intel Xeon E5-2687W v3 64GB (8x8GB) 1TB SATA 7.2k AMD FirePro W4100 2GB (4 mDP) LSI SAS 3008 I'm using the standard X driver which is listed as RADEON and under system details: Gallium 0.4 on AMD Cape Verde.

ssh jail?
by Jeffrey Ross 25 Jan '16

25 Jan '16

I'm in the process of setting up an SSH jail, for the most part its working as expected with one exception, I want to provide access to /dev/ttyUSB0 through /dev/ttyUSB4 (not 2) via cu. When I attempt to use "cu -lttyUSB0 -s9600" I always get "line in use" even through it is not in use and from another account not restricted to the "jail" I can successfully connect to the ttyUSB0. I've tried creating $chroot/ run/ lock/ lockdev/ uucp/ var/ run -> symbolic link to $chroot/run lock -> symbolic link to $chroot/run/lock and then matched the directory permissions so they are the same as the "real" system. ls -l $chroot/dev/ttyUSB? crwxrwxrwx 1 root dialout 188, 0 Jan 24 14:48 ttyUSB0 crwxrwxrwx 1 root dialout 188, 1 Jan 24 14:49 ttyUSB1 crwxrwxrwx 1 root dialout 188, 3 Jan 24 14:49 ttyUSB3 crwxrwxrwx 1 root dialout 188, 4 Jan 24 14:49 ttyUSB4 The dialout group is 18 and the user is in group 18, initially I set the permissions for the ttyUSB? to 660 before changing it to 777 as a last ditch effort. The "real" /dev/ttyUSB? - ls -l /dev/ttyUSB? crw-rw---- 1 root dialout 188, 0 Jan 24 14:44 /dev/ttyUSB0 crw-rw---- 1 root dialout 188, 1 Jan 23 21:48 /dev/ttyUSB1 crw-rw---- 1 root dialout 188, 3 Jan 24 15:12 /dev/ttyUSB3 crw-rw---- 1 root dialout 188, 4 Jan 23 21:48 /dev/ttyUSB4 I'm probably missing something simple and any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks, Jeff

Audio CD burner question
by JD 25 Jan '16

25 Jan '16

Tried a few audio cd burners, but none of them seem to have an option to automagically include each track title as CD text for each track. If anyone knows of such a burner (Open Source), would like to hear about it. Thanx.

Kmail
by Richard Ibbotson 24 Jan '16

24 Jan '16

Hi I suppose I could ask this question on the KDE list but their Mailman software is doing some strange things just now. Since I upgraded to Fedora 23 I find that I get a message in Kmail when I try to delete some mail “Do you really want to delete the selected message ? “ I have to click on this hundreds of times to delete any unwanted mail. Can anyone suggest which setting to change to get rid of this ? KDE 4.14.14 Kmail 4.14.10. No. I do_not want to know about any other mail app. Just some help with this one. -- Richard Sheffield UK
