can't find wireless
by Paolo Galtieri 20 Feb '21

20 Feb '21

I have a Dell XPS 15 9500 laptop. I've already listed other issues with this laptop running Fedora 33. Here's a new one :( lspic -k shows the following: 0:14.3 Network controller: Intel Corporation Comet Lake PCH CNVi WiFi Subsystem: Rivet Networks Device 1651 Kernel modules: iwlwifi lsmod shows the following: lsmod | grep iwl iwlwifi 344064 0 cfg80211 954368 1 iwlwifi So the appropriate wireless driver is loaded, however ifconfig shows the following devices: enp0s20f0u1u4: flags=4163<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,MULTICAST> mtu 1500 inet 192.168.10.2 netmask 255.255.255.0 broadcast 192.168.10.255 inet6 fe80::7484:4652:d8fb:2914 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x20<link> ether 00:e0:4c:68:0b:68 txqueuelen 1000 (Ethernet) RX packets 22169 bytes 20677661 (19.7 MiB) RX errors 0 dropped 0 overruns 0 frame 0 TX packets 20374 bytes 7329505 (6.9 MiB) TX errors 0 dropped 0 overruns 0 carrier 0 collisions 0 lo: flags=73<UP,LOOPBACK,RUNNING> mtu 65536 inet 127.0.0.1 netmask 255.0.0.0 inet6 ::1 prefixlen 128 scopeid 0x10<host> loop txqueuelen 1000 (Local Loopback) RX packets 25 bytes 3400 (3.3 KiB) RX errors 0 dropped 0 overruns 0 frame 0 TX packets 25 bytes 3400 (3.3 KiB) TX errors 0 dropped 0 overruns 0 carrier 0 collisions 0 virbr0: flags=4099<UP,BROADCAST,MULTICAST> mtu 1500 inet 192.168.122.1 netmask 255.255.255.0 broadcast 192.168.122.255 ether 52:54:00:d9:35:63 txqueuelen 1000 (Ethernet) RX packets 0 bytes 0 (0.0 B) RX errors 0 dropped 0 overruns 0 frame 0 TX packets 0 bytes 0 (0.0 B) TX errors 0 dropped 0 overruns 0 carrier 0 collisions 0 vmnet1: flags=4163<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,MULTICAST> mtu 1500 inet 192.168.203.1 netmask 255.255.255.0 broadcast 192.168.203.255 inet6 fe80::250:56ff:fec0:1 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x20<link> ether 00:50:56:c0:00:01 txqueuelen 1000 (Ethernet) RX packets 0 bytes 0 (0.0 B) RX errors 0 dropped 0 overruns 0 frame 0 TX packets 142 bytes 0 (0.0 B) TX errors 0 dropped 0 overruns 0 carrier 0 collisions 0 vmnet8: flags=4163<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,MULTICAST> mtu 1500 inet 172.16.96.1 netmask 255.255.255.0 broadcast 172.16.96.255 inet6 fe80::250:56ff:fec0:8 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x20<link> ether 00:50:56:c0:00:08 txqueuelen 1000 (Ethernet) RX packets 0 bytes 0 (0.0 B) RX errors 0 dropped 0 overruns 0 frame 0 TX packets 142 bytes 0 (0.0 B) TX errors 0 dropped 0 overruns 0 carrier 0 collisions 0 Note there is no wireless device listed. So what do I need to do to get wireless working on this laptop under Fedora? Paolo

Plasma on Xorg Fails to Start After Last System Update
by Stephen Morris 19 Feb '21

19 Feb '21

Hi, Three days ago I did a dnf system upgrade to apply all available Fedora updates. I have now tried to start Plasma under Xorg, but it now refuses to start with a crash in ksplashqml, and if I press ctrl-alt-delete to try to logout the ksmserver-greeter also crashes. Plasma under Wayland runs quite happily albeit without resolution scaling. Gnome under Wayland runs fine without scaling and Gnome under Xorg also runs fine. How do I determine why the apps are failing with Plasma under Xorg now? regards, Steve

All; Has anyone installed Fedora on an LG Gram? I bought one a few years back and ended up returning it due to issues... Maybe these laptops are better supported now? Thanks in advance for any advice...

I hadn't seen any mail from this list since yesterday morning, which is kind of unusual. So I was wondering if I had mail reception problem or nothing has been posted? -- uname -rsvp Linux 3.10.0-1160.15.2.el7.x86_64 #1 SMP Wed Feb 3 15:06:38 UTC 2021 x86_64 Boilerplate: All unexpected mail to my mailbox is automatically deleted. I will only get to see the messages that are posted to the mailing list.

What to do about a GUI application not appearing in Gnome Software?
by Matti Pulkkinen 16 Feb '21

16 Feb '21

Hello! I noticed that RStudio doesn't show up in Gnome Software's search on F33 Workstation. My understanding is that graphical applications should be installable through Gnome Software, but I'm not sure whether filing a bug would be the right thing to do here, ot whether there's something else I should do instead. -- Terveisin / Regards, Matti Pulkkinen

Btrfs performance
by László Pál 16 Feb '21

16 Feb '21

Hi, I have a server mainly used for central log collection (syslog-ng collects logs and put in files). It is quite big, with 5TB partition allocated for logs. I’m using BTRFS on this partition with on-the-fly compression, so I can save lots of space without playing with logrotate and compress. What I’ve observed the i/o performance of this partition is terrible. Right now I’m deleting some old logs (couple thousand files) for hours. Is there any way to improve the performance of a partition like this or should I consider to move data to xfs w/o compression and implement some logrotate based archiving? Pál, László vlad(a)vlad.hu

PeerTube and Fedora
by David 14 Feb '21

14 Feb '21

There are at least four recent videos about Fedora, on PeerTube. https://peertube.co.uk/search?startDate=2020-02-15T06:00:00.000Z&sort=-matc… feel free to correct me. I have not yet joined PeerTube.
