by Michael D. Setzer II 02 May '21

02 May '21

Just upgraded my notebook to sdd drive and then did dnf update to Fedora 33. Ran the following command in / to see what it finds. find . -xtype l >/badlinks Summary of results of broken links by top directory /etc 15 /home 17 /proc 170 /root 2 /run 145 /usr 325 674 Not an awful lot, but wonder if they should be fixed or just left alone? One was projectM have a link to some fonts, but the fonts and the directory they are suppose to be in don't exist. The there are a number K50netconsole files in /etc /proc and /run not sure of?? /home seem to be mostly files in .wine Thanks.. +------------------------------------------------------------+ Michael D.

No Microphone input on fedora 34 (pipewire)
by Mike Martin 02 May '21

02 May '21

Since installing fedora 34 I have no input from microphone. The microphone appears in audiomixer (pavucontrol I assume) All modules seem to be loaded and playback is fine the only error message I can see is from dmesg -T traps: gnome-sound-rec[2335] trap int3 ip:7f9b4652df7f sp:7ffdf71ddc70 error:0 in libglib-2.0.so.0.6800.1[7f9b464ef000+90000] lspci 00:1b.0 Audio device: Intel Corporation Atom Processor Z36xxx/Z37xxx Series High Definition Audio Controller (rev 0e) arecord -l **** List of CAPTURE Hardware Devices **** card 0: PCH [HDA Intel PCH], device 0: VT1802 Analog [VT1802 Analog] Subdevices: 0/1 Subdevice #0: subdevice #0 pw-record --list-targets Available targets ("*" denotes default): alsa_input.pci-0000_00_1b.0.input_analog-stereo * 42: description="Built-in Audio Analog Stereo Input" prio=2000 But zero input from mic If I plug in a cheap microphone it works, so something weird is happening Any ideas

F33->F34: paps output has changed
by Max Pyziur 02 May '21

02 May '21

Greetings, Thank you to the Fedora team for the F34 roll-out; upgrades were seamless: seemingly a trend not an anomoly. I'm a paps users (paps is a PostScript converter from plain text file using Pango), having at one time used enscript. My general CLI invocation has been: paps --columns=3 --landscape --paper=letter --font="Arial 6" /tmp/x3 | lpr -P lp3 This is generally sent to an HP53xx printer. /tmp/x3 is just a temporary text file copied from somewhere else. With the F34 upgrade, the output is a little uneven in print quality as far as the fonts are concerned. I've tried changing the "Arial 6" to "Serif 6", then to "Sans 6" The last seems to be satifactory. The goal here is to print text files of from a variety of sources: code, essays, articles, etc., in a compact space to read. Not so much to print publication-quality stuff. I would be interested in suggestions from other paps users on their preferred Much thanks, Max Pyziur pyz(a)brama.com

Sometimes logging in and out doesn't work and I'll have to reboot.

Upgrading 33 to 34. Small problems
by Frank 01 May '21

01 May '21

Upgraded Fedora 33 to 34 yesterday following the Fedora recommendations. It went well but today I noticed two small problems. Every once in a while sound stops working...pulse audio show no devices at all. I know pipewire is the default now so I have no idea how to resolve this intermittent problem. It seems when sound stops working, logging out and back in solves the problem. The other problem is xscreen-saver has stopped working. I suspect it's been integrated into systemd as there are a bunch of config files which didn't exist before. [frank@localhost ~]$ inxi -A Audio: Device-1: Intel 5 Series/3400 Series High Definition Audio driver: snd_hda_intel Sound Server-1: ALSA v: k5.11.16-300.fc34.x86_64 running: yes Sound Server-2: PipeWire v: 0.3.26 running: yes [frank@localhost ~]$ ls /etc/xscreensaver/ XScreenSaver.ad XScreenSaver.ad.hacks XScreenSaver.ad.header XScreenSaver.ad.tail I had xscreensaver setup to use GLslideshow, now all I get is a blank screen. Any ideas ? Thanks

Using the logs to detect a problem with webcam on OBS-Studio
by Paul Smith 01 May '21

01 May '21

Dear All, After having upgraded from F33 to F34, my webcam was still detected by OBS-Studio. However, it did not display any image -- only a black rectangle. It took me a lot of time to find out the cause: The resolution of my webcam on OBS-Studio was configured as "Leave unchanged" and it should be "1280x720". So my question is: Could this problem have been spotted in some logs? Thanks in advance, Paul

btrfs system slow down with 100GB file
by Richard Shaw 30 Apr '21

30 Apr '21

I'm getting significant iowait while writing to a 100GB file. I have already made it nocow by copying it to another directory, marking the director nocow (+C) and using cat <oldfile> <newfile> to re-create it from scratch. I was under the impression that this should fix the problem. On a tangent, it took about 30 minutes to delete the old file... My system is a Ryzen 5 3600 w/ 16GB or memory but it is a spinning disk. I use an NVME for the system and the spinning disk for /home. Currently I'm getting random GUI freezes due to the iowait problem and my HDD indicator light basically stays on solid for over an hour now. Any tips? Thanks, Richard

Fwd: Re: (SOLVED) Problems upgrading to Fedora 34 openjfx and openjfz8 conflict
by Feoli, Dr. Enrique 30 Apr '21

30 Apr '21

To whoever meets openjfx and openjfz8 conflict while upgrading from F33 to F44 By suuport received from Ed Greshko the following will solve the conflict do sudo dnf erase openjfx sudo dnf erase opnjfx8 then download an install F34 system-upgrade download --refresh --releasever=34 --allowerasing After upgrade reinstall openjfx8 (you will not be able to install both packages in parallel on F34) sudo dng install openjfx8 That will solve it. Enrique --- Mensaje original --- ASUNTO: Re: Problems upgrading to Fedora 34 De: "Feoli, Dr. Enrique" Para: "Community support for Fedora users" Fecha: 30-04-2021 14:48 Thnak you so much Ed for the guidance. I was able to download the Fedora 34 distribution, removed the openjfix and openjfx8 packages, plus the two files that appear in the error message Error: Transaction test error: file /usr/lib/.build-id/c7/dcd663e38adaac7a2d8d137c46f337ab5543cf from install of openjfx-3:11.0.9.2-4.fc34.x86_64 conflicts with file from package openjfx8-8.0.202-26.b07.fc34.x86_64 file /usr/lib/.build-id/e6/010f9c606facd1495fb823e9e767752537712b from install of openjfx-3:11.0.9.2-4.fc34.x86_64 conflicts with file from package openjfx8-8.0.202-26.b07.fc34.x86_64 However, when the command to instal is given the above error appears repatedly, even after rebooting. Is there some kind of chace to clear?

I'm not familiar with openjfx or openjf8 and I've not see this sort of error before. There are several things you can try. system-upgrade download --refresh --releasever=34 --allowerasing or system-upgrade --exclude=openjfx --exclude= openjfx8 --refresh --releasever=34 then upgrade them after the system upgrade has completed. or You can remove/erase those two packages, do the upgrade, and then add them back after the upgrade is complete. -- Remind me to ignore comments which aren't germane to the thread. _______________________________________________ users mailing list -- users(a)lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to users-leave(a)lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/users@lists.fedoraproject.org Do not reply to spam on the list, report it: https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure
