Preventing display manager running on gpgpu
by Neal Becker
After re-installing f33 following a disk crash, I was having problems
that I believe were caused by nouveau trying to run on my gpgpu nvidia
2080 ti. I don't need or want a display manager running on it. How
can I tell if wayland and/or X is configured to run on that card, and
how can I disable it for that card? I also have a built-in vga that
runs a display.
Thanks,
Neal

How to build rpm Krita from krita.spec ?
by Cătălin George Feștilă
I used this tutorial to build the Krita from sources: https://docs.krita.org/en/untranslatable_pages/building_krita.html#prepar....
This is the result of the rpmlint tool:
rpmlint krita.spec ../SRPMS/krita* ../RPMS/*/krita*
(none): E: no installed packages by name ../SRPMS/krita*
(none): E: no installed packages by name ../RPMS/*/krita*
0 packages and 1 specfiles checked; 0 errors, 0 warnings.
the krita.spec has this content:

workstation has become ill
by Neal Becker
I've been running F32 on a shiny new amd dual epyc workstation for
about 1 year. The system is now remote to me and not convenient to
access.
About 1 week ago the system became unresponsive. I noticed errors
logged about I/O errors, so I guessed it was an issue with the SSD. I
went there and replaced the SSD with a shiny new samsung 1tb.
Reinstalled F33 and got my vpns going so I could access again from
home.
But things are acting very strangely. Install was lightning fast.
But after a while the machine becomes unusable. Any command takes
minutes to react. I am unable to reboot it. sudo reboot after a very
long time does nothing.
I don't see anything interesting in /var/log/messages (I installed rsyslog).
When I can eventually get top to run, I see systemd is in D state.
There is plenty of free memory, and the machine has 64GB.
I'm going to visit again and this time yank out the nvidia gpu. This
is just a wild guess based on 1) it isn't critical for use right now
2) it places a load on the power supply just in case that's the issue
3) it's the only thing I can think to try.
Just wondering if anyone has any thoughts on how to troubleshoot this.

Should I care?
Thanks,

No USB keyboard or mouse on login ? F33 Workstation, USB devices.
by linux guy
I just did an update to my F33 Workstation install and now I can log in. I
can't move the mouse pointer on the login screen. The keyboard doesn't
appear to work either. Both are USB devices.
My login manager is GDM. I'm running Plasma as my desktop manager.
I don't think I have ssh enabled on that computer. How do I resolve this ?

libcrypto vs XnView
by Patrick Dupre
Hello,
To run XnView,
here is what it is recommended:
you need to remove lib/libcrypto* from package
https://newsgroup.xnview.com/viewtopic.php?p=165437#p165437
What do you think ?
libcrypto*
belong to openssl-libs
When I try to remove the package, I get
Problem: The operation would result in removing the following protected packages: sudo
(try to add '--skip-broken' to skip uninstallable packages)
