External monitor randomly not waking up
by wgelpi＠redhat.com
I have an issue where my external monitor (ViewSonic) will not wake up. Why I think it's related to Fedora is the following:
Fedora recognizes the monitor's existence when I go into settings. However, the monitor will not turn on. I have tried xrandr with no luck. I have also tried Alt + F2 -> r with no luck. I have a docking station, but have also tried plugging the monitor directly into the computer. At first I thought it was related to plugging the monitor in before waking from sleep, but I just plugged it in while the machine was awake with the same experience. I would say this happens once every few days with no real pattern.

F30: i915 - No HDMI output with KMS enabled
by Muhammad Hamzah Khan
Hello,
I have an old Optiplex 3010 which I put F30 on. For some reason, I cannot get the HDMI port to work without disabling KMS by adding i915.modeset=0 to the kernel command line.
Problem is, if I disable KMS, audio over HDMI doesn't work.
I get the following in dmesg:

error when running video in chrome -- centos6.5
by bruce
Morn group.
I know this is off topic, ,but I'm flumoxed and thought maybe someone
has run into this issue and has a solution.
I've got a centos6.5 system, running Chome --Version 31.0.1650.63
On a number of sites when I select an embedded vid to run, I get an error::
This video file cannot be played.(Error Code: 102630)
I've seen solutions that suggest getting a new version of chrome (I
can't). Disabling hardware acceleration or chrome (implemented).
Adding Adobe flash as an extension (I've tried enabling/disabling --
no luck)
Any thoughts/comments might be useful!
thanks

gsetting not taking effect
by Patrick Frank
Hello,
on Gnome (with Xorg) on Fedora 30 I found that
"org.gnome.shell.window-switcher current-workspace-only" is already
active by default. I wanted to enable that ALT+TAB only shows tasks from
the current workspace. What do I need to do?
Greetings, Patrick.

copy and paste from mouse when window full of icons?
by Gianluca Cecchi
Hello,
while using "Files", the explorer application (version 3.28.1-stable) in my
Fedora 28 system, I have sometimes this kind of problem:
- I normally use what should be "list view" with list of file names
- if I have to paste a file/dir or group of copied files/dirs into a
location where the page listed is full (no blank space inside it), it seems
that I cannot paste: the right mouse click doesn't offer the paste option.
In these cases I temporarily switch to what should be "icon view" and in
this case I always have some blank space because of how items are displayed.
I select a blank space and then right-mouse --> paste
Then I come back to list view...
Is this a sort of bug or what?
Based on this link
https://help.gnome.org/users/gnome-help/stable/files-copy.html.en
I should have "paste" option in menu, but it doesn't happen, see screenshot:
https://drive.google.com/file/d/1X1ZPYPJ5B8IRDA6T_LL5AfbCD2YFAy6_/view?us...
NOTE: keyboard shortcut ctrl+c and ctrl+v works, though
Thanks in advance.

I need help understanding /proc/sys/kernel/core_pattern
by ToddAndMargo
Hi All,
I have no idea what this tells me
$ cat /proc/sys/kernel/core_pattern
|/usr/lib/systemd/systemd-coredump %P %u %g %s %t %c %h %e
Does anyone know of a list somewhere?
And why does it send out a pipe symbol?
What does this do?
# echo core > /proc/sys/kernel/core_pattern
Will "core" turn on core dumps?
And if so, how do I turn it back off after testing it?
And will it wipe out "%P %u %g %s %t %c %h %e"?
I am confused,

Fedora 30 installation from LiveCD hangs at
"Installing software 100%"
by Ranjan Maitra
Dear friends,
I am installing a Fedora 30 from the LiveCD (LXDE) and it is going on spinning for the past 30 minutes while saying "Installing software 100%". Is there anything that I can do to troubleshoot here? I am a little lost because the process is normally a fast one.
The laptop in question is the Dell M3800 and I was using a EFI boot setup. In the past, I have installed using Legacy Boot, but should this be an issue?
Many thanks,
Ranjan

F30 logwatch gets selinux error
by Robert Moskowitz
I get this error every few days. Is this some permission I have not set
or a bug to report:
SELinux is preventing mkdir from using the dac_override capability.
***** Plugin dac_override (91.4 confidence) suggests **********************
If you want to help identify if domain needs this access or you have a
file with the wrong permissions on your system
Then turn on full auditing to get path information about the offending
file and generate the error again.
Do
Turn on full auditing
# auditctl -w /etc/shadow -p w
Try to recreate AVC. Then execute
# ausearch -m avc -ts recent
If you see PATH record check ownership/permissions on file, and fix it,
otherwise report as a bugzilla.
***** Plugin catchall (9.59 confidence) suggests **************************
If you believe that mkdir should have the dac_override capability by
default.
Then you should report this as a bug.
You can generate a local policy module to allow this access.
Do
allow this access for now by executing:
# ausearch -c 'mkdir' --raw | audit2allow -M my-mkdir
# semodule -X 300 -i my-mkdir.pp

kswapd?
by Tom Horsley
I have vast amounts of free memory, yet I keep catching kswapd
running at 100% every so often. Top also says I'm using
a tiny bit of swap (for no reason I can fathom):
MiB Mem : 15976.1 total, 979.6 free, 723.4 used, 14273.1 buff/cache
MiB Swap: 32767.0 total, 32680.5 free, 86.5 used. 14920.2 avail Mem
This is with kernel 5.2.8-200.fc30.x86_64
I never noticed this before. Anyone know what is going on?
