new kernel?
by Ranjan Maitra
Just curious, there has not been a kernel in testing for a while. When is the next kernel expected to land in Fedora? I guess that it will be a 4.18.3 now perhaps?

Script to wakeup monitor with speakers for cron mp3 alarm
by olivares33561＠protonmail.com
Dear Fellow Fedora users,
I had a script called upon by cron which played music at a certain time, for example
30 08 * * 1-5 ~/.dalarm
And .dalarm had
#!/bin/sh
/usr/bin/xterm -e
/usr/bin/mplayer -really-quiet -shuffle -playlist ~/.playlist
It worked, but I did have speakers, now. I do not have external speakers, but a monitor with speakers, if there is no activity with the mouse, the speakers are not heard and while the script does work, the monitor is not active, it is on, but inactive. I am using KDE and I do not know which screensaver is working, the screen blanks and the monitor goes to sleep. How can I wake up the screen/monitor so I can hear the alarm playing. I remember trying
$ xset dpms off
Or similar and turn off screen blankinh, but that does not work anymore. How do I figure out a way to get it working?
Thanks in Advance,
Antonio

Split tunnelling
by Patrick O'Callaghan
Has anyone got this to work in Fedora? To be clear, split tunnelling is
when network traffic to some destinations (or for some apps) is
tunnelled over a VPN, while the rest of the traffic goes through normal
channels. I've tried messing with network namespaces, which would seem
to be the way to go, but not managed to get everything lined up so far.
All the howto's I've seen are for various flavours of Ubuntu.
I guess I'm asking if anyone has already done the work and feels like
sharing it.

Device defaults -
by Bob Goodwin
It seems too often I struggle with the problem of dealing with a device
that, when "reset" or new, is on a different subnet and my computer
address needs to change temporarily for the device to be accessedwith
the Firefox browser long enough to change the device address too
something in my 192.168.1.xxx range.
What is the simplest way to do that with Fedora 27 or 28,NetworkManager?
My immediate problem is that I have an Buffalo router /have been using
as an ethernet bridge for a long time and I forgot the address I
assigned to it and I can't access it. It came with dd-wrt. I t looks
to me like I need to reset it to gain access with the browser.

Dell XPS15 9570
by Thomas Letherby
Hello all,
I'm trying to install the KDE spin on a Dell XPS 15 and I can't seem to get
the nVidia drivers to install.
I installed via a USB stick, and I had to add the dis_ucode_ldr switch to
the boot options to get it to load and change to ACIP rather than RAID for
the drive, but it installed without issue after that and seems to be
working fine with the Noveau drivers, however I cannot seem to get nVidia
drivers to install correctly.
I'm trying to use the workstation RPMFusion repo, and they seem to install
OK, but after trying the guides here:
https://rpmfusion.org/Howto/NVIDIA
https://fedoramagazine.org/install-nvidia-gpu/
(I don't have the install drivers option for this one, I think that's Gnome
specific isn't it?)
I get similar results, namely a blank screen at login, which persists for
more than 10 minutes, so I don't think it's still building the drivers.
If I switch to another tty I can startx and it will load KDE. It's like
it's not loading the login screen.
I'm still searching through the logs but I've not found a smoking gun yet,
but just in case, has anyone got this to work, and if so how did you do it?
Thanks,
Thomas

I'm not sure I understand what you mean by "private network subnets".
You mean it does this automatically, or you configured it that way?

Indeed, that could be an issue.

No, not exactly.
That is more an example of the use of multiple routes.
Destination-A goes through gateway-A
Destination-B goes through gateway-B
All-else goes through default-gateway...
Either GW-A or GW-B could be VPN.
Split-tunneling is more that transmit and receive use different tunnels,
Or traffic to SAME destination is load-balanced over multiple, parallel tunnels.
"> tricky part, which I haven't tried to solve, is that you can't resolve
> private DNS entries from the VPN connection."
VPN-server processes can push routing info, and DNS-server addresses.
AFAICR systems accept three DNS-resolvers.
This can be tricky. If the VPN-process pushes three resolvers, the old ones will be gone (while the tunnel exists),
Thus you are unable to resolve NON-vpn-URL's.
Situation can get even more complicated, when using split-horizon DNS.
Same URL with internally, and externally different IP-addresses.

video + kodi users/geeks around? - HW decoding 1080p/4K ?
by lejeczek
hi guys
I wonder - and for any experts this is probably trivial - and I
understand it varies with hardware, but in theory, if hardware
capabilities are fully implemented - should HW acceleration(playback)
that works on 1080p for h264/vc1, also work for 4K?
many thanks, L.

That seems odd to me. First, my DHCP server doesn't supply
Domain Name
This option specifies the domain name that client should use when
resolving hostnames via the Domain Name System.
The code for this option is 15.
in its reply as shown earlier. And I went to
http://www.trendnet.com/emulators/TEW-818DRU_v1/basic/home.htm?expandable=0 and
didn't find a place
to specify a domain name. (Maybe I didn't look carefully enough)
My search option gets set based on the assigned hostname.

What is the output of hostnamectl on your system?
