Can't boot into emergency mode to perform lvresize
by cen
Hi
I want to decrease the size of my home partition and increase the root
partition using lvresize. if I understand correctly, I should boot into
emergency mode so home is not mounted. I followed the documentation,
adding systemd.unit=emergency.target to linux16 entry but system just
slowly loads and freezes at fedora logo. I left it for a few minutes,
nothing happens.
Best regards, cen

mount exfat -
by Bob Goodwin
This is an updated Fedora29 workstation and I think I've installed
thetwo required exfat app's via dnf.
I would like to list the contents of a Western Digital MyBook external
drive that uses "exfat." Apparently it feels abused by the user when
unmounted.
[root@Box83 bobg]# mount -t exfat /dev/sdc1 /mnt/test -o nonempty
FUSE exfat 1.3.0
WARN: volume was not unmounted cleanly.
fuse: mountpoint is not empty
fuse: if you are sure this is safe, use the 'nonempty' mount option
Perhaps I am not entering the commend correctly?
[root@Box83 bobg]# mount -o nonempty -t exfat /dev/sdc1 /mnt/test
FUSE exfat 1.3.0
WARN: volume was not unmounted cleanly.
fuse: mountpoint is not empty
fuse: if you are sure this is safe, use the 'nonempty' mount option
What is wrong?

Googling this issue (s6-supervise (child): fatal: unable to exec run:

I don't understand what is behind, so can anyone help me to solve this
issue (if I can).
Thank you

multi-line URIs
by Jon LaBadie
When selection a multi-line URI in a terminal window
I've noticed two behaviors. Some will ?ignore? the
extra lines and only select to the end of the first
line. Others will select the entire URI, typically
to an ending ">". Obviously I would prefer the latter.
Is this behavior terminal specific, i.e. gnome-terminal
vs mate-terminal vs xterm. Or is it a configuration
parameter that I've not found?

gnome-boxes no longer works with enforcing SELinux
by Dirk Gottschalk
Hello.
I'm encountering a strange issue with Gnome-Boxes and SELinux running
under F29.
If SELinux is in enforcing mode, the VM can not be started. I get only
a nonsense error message that tells me it is impossible to startup.
Then, after checking the file permissions, I set SELinux to permissive
mode with 'setenforce 0'. Then, the VMs start without any problem.
I also did relablel the entire filesystem without success.
Sidenote: I had to reinstall F29 after trying the mls policy, 'cause it
f*cked up my system.
As told, I relabeled the whole filesystem after this reinstallation
just to ensure a proper labeled home partition, which I did not erase.
Do I have to set a special label for some subdirectories which are not
set automatically?
Regards,
Dirk

F28 Java in firefox
by Robert Moskowitz
Gee, I Thought I had Java installed, but just got the message:
This product requires the Java language, which is either disabled or not
available on this browser.
To use this product you must either upgrade your browser to one that is
Java compliant, or enable the Java language on your current browser.
How do I check what is needed and how to get it working...
thanks

dnf keeps reinstalling a package
by sean darcy
rpm -q gstreamer1-plugins-ugly
gstreamer1-plugins-ugly-1.14.4-2.fc29.x86_64
but:
sudo dnf upgrade
.......
Dependencies resolved.
Problem: package gstreamer1-plugins-ugly-1.14.4-2.fc29.x86_64 requires
libx264.so.155()(64bit), but none of the providers can be installed
I'm using a newer version of x264, and rebuilt plugins-ugly with it. Why
does dnf keep trying to install the repo version. What rule does dnf
follow that overrides the the package version name ? And can you
override the override ?
