strange log message
by François Patte
Bonjour,
logwatch send a strange warning:
WARNING: Device /dev/md1 has size of 0 sectors which is smaller than
corresponding PV size of 976508928 sectors. Was device resized?: 1 Time(s)
WARNING: Device /dev/md11 has size of 0 sectors which is smaller than
corresponding PV size of 104346496 sectors. Was device resized?: 1 Time(s)
What does that mean? These devices have not been resized.
They are locate on disks which were not used during the installation and
they were created during a previous installation (fedora 21). I added
them to fstab after the f25 install.
Who can give me some explanation?
Thank you.

mcelog error output going to all open terminals
by ProPAAS DBA
Hi all;
I've been seeing mcelog errors since a few updates back. After much,
much digging it seems that the mcelog errors are due to spikes in cpu
temperature.
I have a Thinkpad x1 Carbon 4th generation running Fedora 25 - KDE
I get why I'm seeing the cpu temp spikes since it usually happens when
I'm doing a fair amount of gaphics processing with darktable and have
2-3 VM's running via VMware Workstation, however in the past I would see
a notification popup on the system tray, now I see the notification on
the system tray AND I also get output like this in EVERY terminal window
I have open:

It's very frustrating... Is there a way I can keep he system from
printing this info to all my open terminal windows? I even tried a "dnf
erase mcelog" but I still get the same behavior.
Thanks in advance

Strange VT switch issue
by Raman Gupta
I have an odd issue with VT switches after upgrading to Fedora 26. I'm
in X, and when I switch VT's systemd creates a getty [1] and it
suspends X [2], however the VT never actually switches to a terminal.
It just sits on a "frozen" X display that has no audio, no video, and
no cursor (as one would expect), until I switch back to VT-1.
I *can* also switch back to to VT-1 using Alt-F1 instead of
Ctrl-Alt-F1, which indicates to me that my keyboard input *is* going
to the console VT -- just my display doesn't match.
Is this related to modesetting? I am using the open source radeon /
radeonsi driver with an HD7500 card, with three monitors.
There are no error messages in any of the usual suspects (journalctl,
dmesg, Xorg.0.log).
Any ideas?
[1] agetty processes after attempting Ctlr-Alt-F2 and Ctrl-Alt-F6:
root 11513 1 0 03:47 tty2 00:00:00 /sbin/agetty --noclear
tty2 linux
root 29928 1 0 11:31 tty6 00:00:00 /sbin/agetty --noclear
tty6 linux
[2] Message in Xorg.0.log at the time of the VT switch attempt:
[ 31645.194] (II) AIGLX: Suspending AIGLX clients for VT switch
Message in Xorg.0.log when switching back to VT-1:
[ 31645.798] (II) AIGLX: Resuming AIGLX clients after VT switch

swell-foop working for anyone with nvidia drivers?
by Tom Horsley
I got an update that included both new nvidia
drivers from rpmfusion and a new libglvnd,
and now swell-foop stopped working (very critical
bug :-).
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1440353
Lots of other gnome stuff still works, so I don't
think this busted GL completely, it is just busted
for swell-foop.
Anyone have any clues about who's bug this really is?
I know swell-foop uses some idiotic library to
mush gtk and java together, and it often seems to
stumble over doing things "differently". Maybe that's
where the bug really is.
Or it could be the new libglvnd or the new nvidia drivers.
Who can say?

Firefox question
by JD
For a long time I had my FF start up with the setting:
Show my windows and tabs from last time.
Well, for some reason, when I shut down FF (File -> Quit),
and restart, it restarts not from the tabs and windows of
previous Quit, but from a very very old set of tabs and windows.
Hot sure why it is doing this.
Any hints of what file contains that old set of tabs and windows
so I can clear it?
Thanx.

System alive but can't access from the monitor
by Paolo Galtieri
Folks,
I have 2 F25 systems that have been updated today. These 2 systems
share a monitor. One system is attached via a kvm switch to the
monitor, the other system is attached via hdmi. This morning and twice
this evening a problem has started to manifest itself. This
configuration has been working fine for several years. I will call the
systems A and B, system A is attached to the monitor via hdmi, system B
via VGA. If I switch to system A for a while and then try to switch
back to system B the monitor instead of staying on VGA cycles from VGA
to DVI to HDMI and returns to system A. I can ssh into system B and
everything looks fine, i.e. things that were running under my user id
are still running, e.g. chrome and firefox. I looked at
/var/log/messages and I see this:
Mar 29 23:00:02 jackstraw systemd: Stopping User Manager for UID 0...
Mar 29 23:00:02 jackstraw systemd: Stopped target Default.
Mar 29 23:00:02 jackstraw systemd: Stopped target Basic System.
Mar 29 23:00:02 jackstraw systemd: Stopped target Sockets.
Mar 29 23:00:02 jackstraw systemd: Closed D-Bus User Message Bus Socket.
Mar 29 23:00:02 jackstraw systemd: Stopped target Timers.
Mar 29 23:00:02 jackstraw systemd: Stopped target Paths.
Mar 29 23:00:02 jackstraw systemd: Reached target Shutdown.
Mar 29 23:00:02 jackstraw systemd: Starting Exit the Session...
Mar 29 23:00:02 jackstraw systemd: Received SIGRTMIN+24 from PID 17588
(kill).
This was at the time I switched from system A to system B. Each of the
other times I saw this problem I see the same set of messages in the log
file. Can someone explain what they mean and could they be the cause of
the problem?
I see the same messages on the other system, but there they were part of
other messages related to rebooting the system.
The only way I can recover is reboot the system.
Here's my video card info:
01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: NVIDIA Corporation G86 [GeForce 8500
GT] (rev a1)
Any assistance is appreciated.
Thanks,
Paolo

Sounds as if yours was just recently pulled from it. :-) :-)
You do realize my "suggestion" was only meant to address a single issue by a single user. Right?
Yet, if an ISP supplies only IPv6 services you'd think they would also either supply you with a DNS64/NAT64-resolver address or inform you that you should use one of the public DNS64/NAT64-resolvers. I suspect that is how you got your appliance working in that environment?
-----Original Message-----
At home, I got one of the first HE-tunnels, at the time that they were only located in Fremont, and a happy camper ever since.
At work however, this quite another struggle :-((((((
And yes, Ed, I realise that disabling V6 is some duck-tape (not even a Q&D-fix) to get-on for a while.
Unfortunately, googling on it, this is suggested way too often as a permanent solution.
That location used indeed DNS64 and NAT64, that worked for almost all my laptops, phones etc, but not for my box.
Reason? One of my colleges had also disabled V6 on the readonly appliance. Sigh.
So when I see that suggestion, I stand up :-)

I decided to do a test and add ipv6.disable=1 to the kernel parameter on one of my VM's. In the past, this was sufficient. However, doing only this now results in selinux errors. To avoid those you also need to add
"net.ipv6.conf.all.disable_ipv6 = 1" to /etc/sysctl.conf.
-----Original Message-----
Remember that V6 is some option you do NOT have the option to ignore. And that strange quirks could be solved by "net.ipv6.conf.all.disable_ipv6 = 1"
Some countries make haste implementing it, while others don't.
I was expecting that it would be countries like CN and CU where visitors would be confronted with an IPv6-only situation.
However, last February I found out that our appliance didn't work, because of IPv6-only. Here, in Europe, just some miles away in Belgium, Brussels.
So you better get your head out of the sand.

Really?
by Tom Horsley
I was just checking my logs to see if I successfully
squashed the endless random messages minidlna was
generating and I found this:
Apr 5 13:46:34 zooty systemd[2007]: Starting Evince document viewer...
Apr 5 13:46:34 zooty dbus-daemon[2056]: [session uid=2304 pid=2056] Successfully activated service 'org.gnome.evince.Daemon'
Apr 5 13:46:34 zooty systemd[2007]: Started Evince document viewer.
Really? They have managed to make looking at a pdf file dependent
on systemd and dbus? And there is some reason to log such trivia?
Next thing I know, I'll find all my keystrokes and mouse movements
in the log :-).
