Chrome blocks hibernation
by Patrick O'Callaghan
This is weird. A few days ago I found that my desktop system (F23 fully
updated) would no longer hibernate. A glance at "journal -xe" showed a
bunch of lines like:

and when I killed Chrome then hibernation worked again.
So one question is: what is the magic incantation to stop these alarms
from Chrome?
However another question is how is this even possible? A process with
normal user privileges can prevent the system from hibernating? Is this
right?

2 of 4 systems messed up after dnf system-upgrade
by Greg Woods
I have upgraded 4 systems (two laptops and two desktops, all different
hardware) from F23 to F24. Two of them are working fine, and the others
seem to be badly messed up in the area of package management. The main
symptom I see is that google-chrome-stable was uninstalled during the
upgrade, and I can't reinstall it:
[root@cobweb yum.repos.d]# dnf install google-chrome-stable --allowerasing
Last metadata expiration check: 0:08:42 ago on Sun Jul 3 17:09:12 2016.
Error: nothing provides /usr/bin/foomatic-rip needed by
redhat-lsb-printing-4.1-32.fc24.x86_64
[root@cobweb yum.repos.d]#
I also get "no matching packages" responses to "dnf list" on packages that
are already installed:
root@cobweb yum.repos.d]# dnf clean all
72 files removed

Here, dnf fails to even list packages that "rpm -q" shows are already on
the system that should match the pattern.
Anybody seen this or have a clue what I can do other than a full reinstall?
Thanks,

Strange messages from sudo dnf repoquery --unsatisfied after upgrade
from F23 to F24.
by Stephen Morris
Hi,
I have issued the command specified in the subject as recommended
on site https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/DNF_system_upgrade to see if
there are any old packages that should be removed because they would not
be working properly anyway, and received the following messages which to
me make no sense, unless I am completely misinterpreting the message.
The kernel mentioned in the first message is the last of the Fedora
23 kernels that is still installed after the upgrade to F24, while the
kernel listed in the 2nd message is the kernel installed by a sudo dnf
upgrade issued the day after the upgrade to F24. Hence the bottom line
is both kernels mentioned in the messages are installed, so why is dnf
reporting that it can't find them?
package kmod-nvidia-4.5.7-200.fc23.x86_64-2:367.27-1.fc24.x86_64
requires kernel-uname-r = 4.5.7-200.fc23.x86_64, but none of the
providers can be installed
package kernel-4.6.3-300.fc24.x86_64 requires kernel-core-uname-r =
4.6.3-300.fc24.x86_64, but none of the providers can be installed

Really excessive screen behavior
by Robert Moskowitz
System is F22 with Xfce
In the past, occasionally I would get what looks like a ScreenSaver
popping over what I am viewing. It almost looks legit in content. It
goes away if I <alt-tab> to another task then <alt-tab> back. QEMM
seems to make it worst (running an 'old' F21/Xfce image there for a
specific purpose).
Well with a recent update, I am now getting this flashing regularly. It
make using the system very hard. It is much worst in my QEMM image than
the main image.
I have looked at the Screensaver settings, and there is nothing there to
indicate a problem. Plus I don't think it is really Screensaver which
is set to lock the screen immediately (after 10 min of inactivity) which
is not the case here.
Any idea where I should look? Yes, I know that I need to update to
recent Fedora. That is on for later this week. I hope....

ssh questions/issue
by bruce
Hi/morn guys...
Searching for answers/opinions on how to allow multiple users to access a
number of different boxes via ssh, using ssh keys..
Say I have 5 boxes on my network,
box1
box2
box3
box4
box5
Each box has a generic user - user1, with limited perms/access
On my local box, i create a pub/private ssh key. I copy the pub key to each
box..
From my local box, I can then ssh -using the priv/pub key into box1.
From box1, can I then hop/ssh over to box2, using the pub key for the user1
that I created/installed?
I'm trying to figure out how I can hop between boxes as needed without
having to have lots of pub/private keys ...
(Viewed some articles that seem to indicate I can do this)
Thoughts/comments..

postgresql-setup upgrade returns error
by arnaud gaboury
I am left with a broken postgresql since my upgrade to Fedora 24.
Starting the service retruns this error:
# /usr/libexec/postgresql-ctl start -D /db/pgsql/data -s -w -t 270
FATAL: 22023: database files are incompatible with server
DETAIL: The data directory was initialized by PostgreSQL version 9.4,
which is not compatible with this version 9.5.3.
LOCATION: ValidatePgVersion, miscinit.c:1364
pg_ctl: could not start server
Examine the log output.
Note: my data are in /db/pgsql/data
---------------------------------------------
# postgresql-setup --upgrade
* Upgrading database.
ERROR: pg_upgrade tool failed
ERROR: Upgrade failed.
* See /var/lib/pgsql/upgrade_postgresql.log for detai
------------------------------------------
------------------------------------
# cat /var/lib/pgsql/upgrade_postgresql.log
-- connection to database failed: could not connect to server: No such
file or directory
Is the server running locally and accepting
connections on Unix domain socket "/home/postgres/.s.PGSQL.5432"?
could not connect to old postmaster started with the command:
"/usr/lib64/pgsql/postgresql-9.4/bin/pg_ctl" -w -l
"pg_upgrade_server.log" -D "/db/pgsql/data-old" -o "-p 5432 -b -c
listen_addresses='' -c unix_socket_permissions=0700 -c
unix_socket_directories='/home/postgres'" start
Failure, exiting
---------------------------------------------
What am I supposed to do now? It seems a trick would be to install
last version 9.4.8 alongside, then run both 9.4.8 and 9.5 with my data
for 9.4 and new empty data base for 9.5, then dump from older to new
one db. Is it correct? Anyway to make postgresql-setup works ?
Thank you for help

Fedora 24: Network inoperable after a manual NetworkManager restart
by Joachim Backes
Hi F24 users,
after a manual restart of NetworkManager (for some reasons) with
sudo systemctl restart NetworkManager.service
having some problems:
1. The Networkmanager icon disappeared from the dashboard
of the GNOME3 desktop
2. DNS is no more operable: trying to access remote hosts
by a hostname: "ping <hostname>" fails with
"ping: <hostname>: Name or service not known"
Using the IP address instead of hostname works.

Changing Partition Type
by JD
Have a drive partitioned (MBR) to have 1 partition.
However, I had forgotten to change partition type to
LINUX.
Now that I have data on it (fstype ext3), I wonder if
it is worth it to change partition type to Linux?
Current type is 7 (ntfs).
Could changing the type to Linux make the data inaccessible?
