A problem with Fedora and Wine
by Francisco Tissera 11 Apr '21

11 Apr '21

Hello everyone, I don't know if this has happened to anyone, but below is my problem: When I launch an application with Wine, and press any key, this happens: wine: Unhandled page fault on write access to 00000000 at address 0336199B (thread 0124), starting debugger... and the application itself crashes. I experienced this with both Fedora 33, and rawhide. The wine version I'm using at the moment is 6.3-1 Thank you for any answer. Best regards. Francisco.

Access HDMI outlet from podman container
by Meikel 09 Apr '21

09 Apr '21

Hi folks, I became owner of a QNAP TS-269 Pro NAS and as a playground I did install Fedora Server 33 on it. There isn't installed any GUI (for administration I use ssh or cockpit), and I' m wondering if it could be possible to run Kodi inside podman container and give it access to the HDMI outlet so that I can use it as a media center? Could such a setup be possible? There is a tool x11docker available that connects a podman container to an X server, but that's not what I have, because for x11docker I need to "log into the X GUI", which is not the case here. Regards, Meikel

My ISP is telling me to set both radios in their router to the same SSID and password for the best coverage. Does this setup make any sense?

What sets QT_IM_MODULE in F33?
by Robert G. (Doc) Savage 08 Apr '21

08 Apr '21

Using Fedora 33 with MATE desktop... I'm working with the developer of a very handy RPN calculator app called rpCalc to figure out why it doesn't work for my regular user 'doc' but works perfectly for a newly created user 'test'. The developer strongly suspects a Qt5 setting. We have narrowed our search to my local environment: $ env | grep QT QT_IM_MODULE=xim QT_AUTO_SCREEN_SCALE_FACTOR=0 QT_SCALE_FACTOR=2 The developer believes the first (set to =xim) is causing rpCalc not to function at all, and that the next two cause the font sizes on the calculator buttons to be oversize. I'm looking for one or more config files -- probably in my home directory -- that set these variables. Talk about looking for a needle in a haystack. Is there a cat | grep command (or equiv) that can recursively look for "QT" in all files in my home directory -- including hidden files? It would have to be able to output the full path to any files in which "QT" is found. Unfortunately cat does not support recursive searches. --Doc Savage Fairview Heights, IL

Touchpad multi-touch not working in Fedora 34
by super cow 07 Apr '21

07 Apr '21

Hello, I have an HP TouchSmart tx2 Notebook PC. I'm running Fedora 34, with Gnome running Wayland, and I can't get the gestures to work. Well, not just the gestures, but the multi-touch feature itself on my touchpad. It could be a hardware limitation, but I don't think that it is. Any feedback would be helpful. Here are some terminal outputs: $ dmesg | grep -i touchpad [ 3.757914] psmouse serio1: synaptics: Touchpad model: 1, fw: 6.3, id: 0x180b1, caps: 0xa04711/0xa00000/0x0/0x0, board id: 0, fw id: 436772 [ 3.826925] input: SynPS/2 Synaptics TouchPad as /devices/platform/i8042/serio1/input/input6 $ sudo libinput list-devices Device: SynPS/2 Synaptics TouchPad Kernel: /dev/input/event7 Group: 9 Seat: seat0, default Size: 51x23mm Capabilities: pointer Tap-to-click: disabled Tap-and-drag: enabled Tap drag lock: disabled Left-handed: disabled Nat.scrolling: disabled Middle emulation: n/a Calibration: n/a Scroll methods: *edge Click methods: none Disable-w-typing: enabled Accel profiles: flat *adaptive Rotation: n/a

Identifying what is accessing a USB device.
by Patrick O'Callaghan 06 Apr '21

06 Apr '21

I have an external USB-3 2-disk docking station, and a script which can power up and down the drives as needed. I have a systemd automount unit that correctly powers up the dock when accessed, then mounts the drives (thanks Ed). After an idle time, automount unmounts the drives. A script detects when this happens and powers them down ... *at which point they immediately power up again, and remain up until I intervene manually, even though they are unmounted*. This never happens if I run the script directly from the command line (i.e. the drives power down and stay down). Clearly the docking unit isn't just doing this flakily on its own. Something is making it happen, and I've no idea how to discover what it is except that it seems to be correlated with systemd in some way. All of the above is 100% reproducible. I'm open to suggestions if anyone has any ideas. poc
