disk monopolized?
by Tom Horsley
Last night I was "optimizing" a qcow2 virtual image
(after zero filling the free space), running (as root):
qemu-img convert -f qcow2 -O qcow2 old.img new.img
The copying and scanning for zero blocks pretty
much took over the disk. Anything else I tried to run
which needed access to something on that disk would
hang for minutes at a time before getting through.
Is that normal behavior? I thought folks were supposed
to take turns and play nice together :-).

why is /usr/lib/sysctl.d/50-coredump.conf not being consulted?
by Robert P. J. Day
i'm sure there's a simple answer to this, but i'm digging around in
systemd-coredump, and while the file
/usr/lib/sysctl.d/50-coredump.conf contains:
kernel.core_pattern=|/usr/lib/systemd/systemd-coredump %p %u %g %s %t %e
the file /proc/sys/kernel/core_pattern still contains:
|/usr/libexec/abrt-hook-ccpp %s %c %p %u %g %t %P %I
am i missing something here? is there a precedence/ordering issue, or
have i forgotten to start some relevant systemd service?

Does anyone have hdmi out working on Dell XPs 15 L502x with Fedora 25?
by padraic7a
Hi folks,
I have a Dell XPS 15 [L502x]. It comes with an Nvidia GeForce GT525 GPU card.
It's an Optimus laptop so an Intel card powers the main display but the hdmi out port connects to the Nvidia card.
I have never had the HDMI out work in Fedora and would like to rectify that.
Before I go back down the various rabbit-holes around optimus, bumblebee, nvidia, nouveau, Wayland and xorg I would like to find someone who has it working - just to see what they use, or even to know that it is possible!
If you have a Dell L502x running Fedora 25 and you have your HDMI out running please let me know. It would be great if you could post your working config.
If you run a different flavour of linux I would also be interested.
If you could take follow on questions that would be great!
I previously posted about this on:
ask.fedraproject
https://ask.fedoraproject.org/en/question/97486/does-anyone-have-hdmi-out...
unix.stackexchange [I posted the question with 50 points bounty here]
http://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/327340/can-anyone-post-a-working-...
It hasn't picked up mush interest, but if receive any useful information here I will post it back to both sites.

Kernel not configured for semaphores
by Frédéric Bron
Hi,
Each time I turn off Fedora 24, I get the following message about 50
times printed in the console:
Kernel not configured for semaphores (System V IPC). Not using udev
synchronisation code.
device-mapper: remove ioctl on fedora_alpha-root failed: Device or resource busy
Command failed
What does that mean?
Thanks,
Frédéric

f23 :: kde and qt updates broken
by Adrian Sevcenco
Hi! It would seem that the configs for the qt and kde updates were broken ..
trying to update i have this :
Error: package kf5-frameworkintegration-5.27.0-1.fc23.x86_64 requires
qt5-qtbase(x86-64) = 5.6.1, but none of the providers can be installed.
........... and so on
but if i try only qt5 update :
dnf -v update qt5-* --best --allowerasing
i get
removing 7 packages :
kde-print-manager
kde-print-manager-libs
plasma-desktop
plasma-integration
plasma-workspace
plasma-workspace-drkonqi
sddm-breeze
and downgrading:
kdeplasma-addons
kf5-frameworkintegration
kf5-frameworkintegration-libs
kf5-kdeclarative
kf5-kwayland
kf5-plasma
and the actual qt5 packages proposed for update are 5.6.2-1
so .. what is going on?
Thank you!
