HP laptop and wifi on Fedora 35 fix wifi adapter.
by Cătălin George Feștilă
After the upgrade with F35, I got some errors on wifi.
Now I saw the adapter is not shown but is listed on hardware.
If I press the wifi button then start the airplane mode and is set to on.
How can be fixed?

F33 just pretends to print
by Michael Hennebry
I have a Brother HL-L2360DL that I'd thought I'd finally managed to install.
I had to go to the Brother website to get a script to run.
The instructions for the script had the wrong name for it.
None of the default options for Brother printers came close.
The CUPS adminstration "web" pages say the right things:
Idle, accepting jobs, two completed jobs.
Nothing actually prints. Not even a test page.
The printer never comes out of deep sleep.
How do I fix this?
It worked with Centos 7, but I do not know what I did.
In my experience, there is no such thing as a small problem when it comes to
installing a printer on Linux:
Either it just works or it requires a mighty effort.
I am getting mighty tired of mighty efforts.
BTW how do I change the default from single- to double-sided?

Improper shutdown, now Kernel panic.
by murph nj
Hi all:
I've got an odd problem that I was hoping for some help on.
The laptop was previously working fine, I am running F30, updated regularly.
I've got an Acer laptop that has been shutting down suddenly. (I
suspect a bad battery, working on that.)
After a sudden shutdown last night, I now get a kernel panic on boot
right after "Starting Switch Root..."
I was able to boot from a USB stick, and was able to read the journal,
but I didn't see anything obvious to help.
I was able to get all of my data off of the (encrypted) disks, so
that's not a problem, but I don't want to just give up, and wash and
reload too quickly.
Any suggestions?
Thanks,

LUKS on shutdown.
by murph nj
I'm having an issue shutting down. Fedora 34, just updated to 35, same
problem. (It was around in 33 as well, I've been putting up with it.) I
know that there is another list for beta versions, but this issue was there
in the current version as well.
Somewhere around 1 out of every 10 shutdowns, the system goes down to
"[ OK ] Reached target System Shutdown", but then,
"[ *** ] a stop job is running for Cryptography setup for luks-<cycle
through LUKS volumes>"
It typically goes for about 1/2 hour if I don't get fed up, and hold the
power button down.
I just saw after that 1/2 hour:
[Time] Timed out starting System Reboot
Forcibly Rebooting: job timed out.
audit: type=1334.........
I still had to power it off. On reboot, it seems OK.
I haven't found anything interesting in /var/log/messages regarding it.
Any suggestions to further troubleshooting?
Thanks,

What is this lock screen
by ToddAndMargo
Hi All,
Fedora 34
mate-desktop-1.26.0-1.fc34.x86_64
When I am in Mate, after a period of activity, I
get this annoying lock screen (if that is what it
is called).
https://ibb.co/5G7Qt73
I have set the screen saver to no lock and turned
power and hibernate off.
How do I rid myself of this annoyance?
Many thanks,

Run xsane without root password prompt?
by Tom Horsley
I have a network scanner. Every time I start xsane, it thinks a bit,
then prompts me for the root password, then finally the xsane
windows come up and I can scan.
Is there any magic I can do to avoid that root prompt? I can't
imagine I have to be root to connect to a network device.

I'm sorry, but your emails are really not making sense. I suggest
finding a support group in your native language, which appears to be
French. I believe someone already suggested one. Otherwise, maybe try
directly using Google Translate. I appreciate your attempt to write in
English, but I'm pretty sure at this point, Google Translate would
produce a more understandable result. Maybe even write your question in
French with the translated result as well.

Hi! I'm trying to create a report with powertop but i get a segmentation fault:

which is strange and i can understand at all ..
Of course this is the lastest powertop:

powertop-debuginfo-2.14-1.fc34.x86_64
Does anyone have any idea on this?
Thank you!
