[F32] Switch user no working (never worked)

by Frédéric

Hi everybody, I'm a long time user of Fedora + KDE/Plasma desktop but this has never worked: sometimes, I want to switch user from a Plasma session, i.e. I want to open a new Plasma session while the first one still runs in the background. When I do that, I just get a black screen. On this laptop, I'm running Fedroa 32 with Plasma and kdm. I also have the proprietary Nvidia driver from rpmfusion*. Has anyone ever been able to switch user correctly with Fedora? with Plasma+kdm? Is it due to kdm, should I use another one? Thanks in advance, F * removing the proprietary driver is not an option because my children use the laptop to run Minecraft and it is much smoother with the proprietary driver and they complain already that they do not have Windows...

Hello, It seems that sources are available for GarminExpress https://developer.garmin.com/open-source/linux/ But there is no instructions for the installation (i.e., after the untar) Did see somebody already tried to install it?

how to monitor data usage by app

by Anil Felipe Duggirala

hello, I am trying to save my phone data when I use it connecting my Fedora 33 workstation laptop to it. Today for example, 100MB of data were used in the first few minutes after I connected my laptop to this connection. The Gnome Wifi settings have a allowed me to set this connection as a Metered Connection, which means updates should not be running when I am connected to it. I would like to know, how can a monitor which program or process is consuming my data? By day? or also in real time view process network consumption? thank you,

surprise while upgrading

by François Patte

Bonjour, I wanted to upgrade a machine today and run dnf upgrade... Amongst the packages, I could see a full install of texlive which is not installed.... So, I asked: rpm -q --whatrequires texlive answer: aucun paquet ne requiert texlive (no package requires texlive).... I thought that, maybe, it was not a full install of texlive and asked, randomly choosing a package that this upgrade wanted to install: rpm -q --whatrequires texlive-polyglossia answer: aucun paquet ne requiert texlive (no package requires texlive).... What's wrong? Thank you. -- François Patte UFR de mathématiques et informatique Laboratoire CNRS MAP5, UMR 8145 Université Paris Descartes 45, rue des Saints Pères F-75270 Paris Cedex 06 Tél. +33 (0)6 7892 5822 http://www.math-info.univ-paris5.fr/~patte FSF https://www.fsf.org/blogs/community/presenting-shoetool-happy-holidays-fr...

dnf conflict with cockpit upgrades

by Richard Shaw

So as far as I can remember I haven't done anything custom here but... Problem 1: package cockpit-bridge-235-1.fc33.x86_64 conflicts with cockpit-dashboard < 233 provided by cockpit-dashboard-229-1.fc33.noarch - cannot install the best update candidate for package cockpit-dashboard-229-1.fc33.noarch - cannot install the best update candidate for package cockpit-bridge-229-1.fc33.x86_64 Problem 2: problem with installed package cockpit-dashboard-229-1.fc33.noarch - package cockpit-bridge-235-1.fc33.x86_64 conflicts with cockpit-dashboard < 233 provided by cockpit-dashboard-229-1.fc33.noarch - package cockpit-system-235-1.fc33.noarch requires cockpit-bridge >= 235-1.fc33, but none of the providers can be installed - cannot install the best update candidate for package cockpit-system-229-1.fc33.noarch Is it me or a packaging problem? Thanks, Richard

errors during update.

by Frank McCormick

Saw a couple of errors in the middle of an update today on Fedora 33. Couldn't figure out how to copy/paste so I have a small screenshot. The system **seems** to work fine after this. Is it something I should be concerned about? Thanks

I am providing here again: SmartCTL output (smartctl -A) : https://pastebin.com/raw/B6AdLZXt I ran the smartctl test a month ago, since I thought there was something wrong with my HDD but the guys on the mailing list told me I did not have to worry. https://listi.jpberlin.de/pipermail/smartmontools-support/2020-November/0... -- Regards, Sreyan Chakravarty
