perf / DWARF bug - is this something to do with the new DWARF format?
by Richard W.M. Jones 24 May '21

24 May '21

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1963865 I can't get stack traces using --call-graph=dwarf information working in Rawhide at the moment. It seems as if perf doesn't understand the new debuginfo information. I find this whole area to be incredibly confusing and opaque. For example, how do I find out what dwarf version was used to generate the debuginfo and what version perf understands? But my main question is: Is there some simple change to perf that is needed to fix this? Or is it user error?

questions after upgrade to fedora34
by cheese＠nosuchhost.net 21 May '21

21 May '21

hi i have two problems after upgrading to fedora34: * copy/paste in xterm/terminator now paints the copied text with reversed colors. in fedora 33 it was clear that in my black on white terminal marked text is colored white with black background. that part works the same in f34. pasting is different now. pasted text was colored like typed text, in fedora34 it is now colored the same as marked text. quite annoying, at least for me. * i have two accounts (usera and userb). normaly i use usera and this is my main account which i use to log into fedora. userb is just used for "jailing" firefox away from my normal user. works in fedora 34, but i no longer have sound from that firefox. i think the reason might be pipewire. is pipewire capable to send one users sounds to another users devices on the same machine? any suggestions anyone? thanks josef

Video controller recommendations
by Alex 21 May '21

21 May '21

Hi, I currently have an AMD Radeon 5770 with 1GB that must be at least ten years old. I've just purchased a 32" Samsung to go with my two 27" connected using DVI. If I continue to use this card, I would connect the 32" with the HDMI or DisplayPort adapter. How would this card perform supporting three monitors? I realize it's a terrible time to purchase a video card, but do you have any recommendations? I currently use one monitor for streaming, and plan to use the other two for work-related things. No games now, but perhaps in the future - what's the game market like for Linux users using fedora33 these days? I believe AMD is a better option than Nvidia due to the drivers on Linux, correct? Do I need anything more than a 4GB card? I thought the main advantages for more memory were to support larger resolutions, correct? Is there a big difference between PCI 2.1 and 3.0/3.1? Here are a few I've been considering. Other recommendations?

Honest Questions -- Trying to decide on version of linux/os
by bruce 20 May '21

20 May '21

Hi. In the middle of trying to figure out a dev platform. So, looking at a blank slate to figure out what version of OS should have on the "work" laptop. Project work will be on the laptop as well as cloud VM.. At the same time (if it matters), looking to to have a new laptop -- 12-16G, 256GSSD/1TB, 6-8 core. I'd prefer to have an OS that's rather stable, as I'm not looking to be the "sys admin" role.. Although, if I can find a remote sys admin that I could trust for a reasonable fee. I could be down for it. Given that this is Fed, I expect the maority of replies will lean to Fed! So, I'm interested in thoughts for the group. Thanks

Strange VPN behaviour
by Anca, Tibor 20 May '21

20 May '21

Hello, I'm using Fedora 34. For some services I need to connect to my corporate VPN (Cysco). I use openconnect with NetworkManager, which connects fine to the vpn server. But there is a weird problem and I can not figure out, where to change something. If I use the AnyConnect-Client, the client creates on connect a resolv.conf and saves the simlink to a backup file which is restored upon disconnect. After it connects it modifies the resolv.conf with entries on domain, dns servers etc. So I can call urls only available within the vpn network. I i use openconnect (which I prefer, because it keeps my network printer available), it doenst do almost anything with resolve.conf. It only adds a search entry, no dns, nothing. In this case I have to enter the ip address of the services I need within the vpn network. I can resolve this by adding an entry into hosts.conf, but nevertheless this bugs me. I already searched the internet, tried a lot with nmcli, systemd- resolved, but nothing helped. It seems, that openconnect doesn't populate some vital dns entries. What could I try?
