LUKS on shutdown.
by murph nj 07 Dec '21

07 Dec '21

I'm having an issue shutting down. Fedora 34, just updated to 35, same problem. (It was around in 33 as well, I've been putting up with it.) I know that there is another list for beta versions, but this issue was there in the current version as well. Somewhere around 1 out of every 10 shutdowns, the system goes down to "[ OK ] Reached target System Shutdown", but then, "[ *** ] a stop job is running for Cryptography setup for luks-<cycle through LUKS volumes>" It typically goes for about 1/2 hour if I don't get fed up, and hold the power button down. I just saw after that 1/2 hour: [Time] Timed out starting System Reboot Forcibly Rebooting: job timed out. audit: type=1334......... I still had to power it off. On reboot, it seems OK. I haven't found anything interesting in /var/log/messages regarding it. Any suggestions to further troubleshooting? Thanks, --murph

NFS mount lockups since about a month ago
by Terry Barnaby 30 Oct '21

30 Oct '21

Hi, I use NFS mount (defaults so V4) /home directories with a simple server over Gigabit Ethernet all running Fedora33. This has been working fine for 25+ years through various Fedora versions. However in the last month or so all of the client computers are getting KDE GUI lockups every few hours that last for around 40 secs. /home is not accessible during this time and it feels/looks to be an NFS lockup issue. There are no "NFS server no responding" or such like messages in either the servers or clients /var/log/messages and the network communications seems fine. 1. Have there been some changes to NFS recently in the kernel ? 2. Any idea where to begin to try and debug this ? Terry

Hi All, Xfce 4.14 When I right click on the desktop and select "Create Launcher", Xfce lists various launchers already installed in the system. Where are these launchers located? .config? .local? Many thanks, -T

USB ports frequently disconnecting

I have a whole slew of these messages in the journal: 00:00:11 Bree upowerd[2067]: treating change event as add on /sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:14.0/usb3/3-0:1.0 The specific usb hub changes from time to time, i.e. it's not always the same device, (and doesn't seem to be related to my external powered hub). A Google search turned up this: https://forums.linuxmint.com/viewtopic.php?t=345031 Before I start messing around with my BIOS, has anyone seen something similar? poc

How do I set foreground and background in mate terminal?
by ToddAndMargo 26 Sep '21

26 Sep '21

Hi All, In xfce-terminal, in Edit--> preferences, I can set my forgoudnand background colros anas well as font size. In mate-terminal, I have edit profiles, etc. Seems like it would affect other things than just mate-terminal. Also, is there a generic terminal I can install similar to xfce-terminal? Many thanks, -T
