Machine won't finish booting after update

by Fulko Hew

I decided to log out and log back in to my X11 based KDE session just now, and I saw that 'Discover' was telling me I had updates available. So I said 'go ahead'. Eventually, it said I needed to reboot, so I did. After 4 (or 5) reboots that the machine drove itself through, the last reboot failed to start up to a GUI session. As a matter of fact, it dropped me down and told me it needed to enter an emergency boot and asked for my root password. The message also told me to look at 'journalctl -xb' After a few thousand lines of info, I saw nothing of significance other than it hadn't finished. The other suggestion was 'systemctl default'. That resulted in the following: Failed to mount /boot/efi Dependency failed for Local File System Dependency failed for Mark the need to relabel after reboot Failed to mount RPC File System Dependency failed for rpc-pipefs.target Dependency failed for RPC security service for NFS client and server Failed to start Load Kernel Modules Failed to mount Arbitrary Executable File Formats File System Failed to mount Arbitrary Executable File Formats File System Failed to mount Arbitrary Executable File Formats File System Failed to mount Arbitrary Executable File Formats File System Failed to mount Arbitrary Executable File Formats File System Failed to start Set Up Additional Binary Formats ... and then nothing. I had to cold start and that brings me back to the same issues. Trying to reboot a previous kernel doesn't even result in any boot messages. I now have a 'non-working' machine. Suggestions are welcome (and needed)! TIA Fulko

kdevelop:: pycodestyle not found

by Adrian Sevcenco

Hi! I have a weird problem with kdevelop: after upgrade to f35 kdevelop no longer finds pycodestyle.. in the terminal output i get: kdevelop.plugins.python.parser: Discarding parts of the code to be parsed because of previous errors IndentationError: unexpected indent (<kdev-editor-contents>, line 108) ---- Parsing FAILED ---- python code checker error: "The `pycodestyle` (previously `pep8`) module is not installed." but i have both: root@hal: ~ # rpm -qa | grep pycodestyle python3-pycodestyle-2.7.0-2.fc35.noarch and user side installation: pip3 freeze | grep pycodestyle pycodestyle==2.8.0 Does anyone have any idea what is going on? or encountered this? Thank you! Adrian

F35 - zram on auto install?

by Robert Moskowitz

With all this memory work I have been doing I finally noticed that free was reporting 24GB swap: # free total used free shared buff/cache available Mem: 15625916 7018872 6765700 109108 1841344 8162532 Swap: 25165816 0 25165816 Thing is I only have 16GB in my swap partition: # fdisk -l /dev/sda Disk /dev/sda: 465.76 GiB, 500107862016 bytes, 976773168 sectors Disk model: WDC WDBNCE5000PN Units: sectors of 1 * 512 = 512 bytes Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 512 bytes I/O size (minimum/optimal): 512 bytes / 512 bytes Disklabel type: dos Disk identifier: 0xa3fd40f9 Device Boot Start End Sectors Size Id Type /dev/sda1 * 2048 2099199 2097152 1G 83 Linux /dev/sda2 2099200 148899839 146800640 70G 83 Linux /dev/sda3 148899840 182454271 33554432 16G 82 Linux swap / Solaris /dev/sda4 182454272 976773119 794318848 378.8G 5 Extended /dev/sda5 182456320 976773119 794316800 378.8G 83 Linux OK. What is happening. I remember Ed's comment about him using zram, so I did some digging and find: # swapon --show NAME TYPE SIZE USED PRIO /dev/sda3 partition 16G 0B -2 /dev/zram0 partition 8G 0B 100 Um, I did not know I set up zram? How did that happen. Is zram now part of the basic Fedora install? It has been a while my using zram. How do I disable it for now? With 16GB real memory and 16GB real swap partition, I want to see how things are working... thanks

How to get Fedora 35 to use DNS name as hostname?

by Thomas Cameron

It looks like the hostname is set in /etc/profile to uname -n, which means every instance I spin up thinks its hostname is "fedora." I don't want that. I want each hostname to set its hostname to whatever its DNS name is. We used to set the hostname in /etc/hostname to localhost.localdomain, and that would be substituted to whatever the DNS hostname associated with the system's IP address was, but that doesn't seem to work any more. What is the preferred way of having Fedora 35 server instances use the host's hostname from DNS? I notice that if I restart NetworkManager.service, then the reverse DNS hostname is set - hostname gives me host123.mydomain.com. I want to make it happen at boot. It's weird. Thomas

ssd keeps dying??

by Neal Becker

I've had a workstation (dual amd rome) for about 2 years. The M2 ssd died after about 1 year. I replaced it with a samsung 980 pro, which then lasted almost 1 more year. Then I replaced it with a 1TB samsung 980 pro, this time with heat sink. This lasted a few weeks. I had been looking at smart nvme data and saw no problems, temp was fine. Now it's dead again. I can ssh to the machine. I can cat /proc/partitions and no nvme shown. I can only issue a couple of commands (I guess whatever is builtin to bash?), but almost all just give I/O error. no sudo or journatctl. The machine is only used for compute, not heavy I/O so not caused by ssd wear (and smartctl showed no wear at all). Any ideas? Thanks, Neal -- *Those who don't understand recursion are doomed to repeat it*

Making dnf install ssh:// work

by Richard W.M. Jones

# dnf install ssh://foo/tmp/bar.rpm Last metadata expiration check: 0:00:41 ago on Sun 16 Jan 2022 09:21:19 GMT. [MIRROR] bar.rpm: Curl error (1): Unsupported protocol for ssh://foo/tmp/bar.rpm [Protocol "ssh" not supported or disabled in libcurl] I'm trying to work out if it's possible to make this work by adjusting the dnf configuration. I'm going to say _no_ because the list of allowed protocols is hard-coded in a couple of places: https://github.com/rpm-software-management/dnf/blob/b831cbd50bb04ace86a90... https://github.com/rpm-software-management/dnf/blob/b831cbd50bb04ace86a90... However the error message seems to indicate that the restriction is being enforced by curl itself using this mechanism: https://curl.se/libcurl/c/CURLOPT_PROTOCOLS.html I cannot see where dnf calls curlopt at all - perhaps it's in a different library? Anyway I think it'd be nice to support ssh, and should be safe. (ftp is allowed at the moment, so presumably security isn't high on the list of current concerns).

gnome-shell-extension-window-list

by Winfried de Heiden

Hi all, Sice a couple of days, the Gnome Shell Extension "Window List" seems broken; the icons are missing. Switching the extension off and on will make icons appear again. However, after opening a new application, the (new) icons is missing. On https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell-extensions someone is facing exactly the same problem. Is someone aware of this problem? Workaround available? I cannot find a Bugzilla on this, so I will create one... Winfried

Regex version mismatch after dnf update

by Robert Moskowitz

Did a dnf update this morning before updating my bios and installing more memory (more on that in a separate missive) I saw some messages during the update process about "Regex version mismatch" but it said it completed successfully. I did my hardware changes, booted back into F35. Went to root to check out the hardware changes are right after using "su -" to get into root I get the following messages. Regex version mismatch, expected: 10.39 2021-10-29 actual: 10.37 2021-05-26 Regex version mismatch, expected: 10.39 2021-10-29 actual: 10.37 2021-05-26 Regex version mismatch, expected: 10.39 2021-10-29 actual: 10.37 2021-05-26 I looked into /var/log/dnf.rpm.log and I see at the tail: Regex version mismatch, expected: 10.39 2021-10-29 actual: 10.37 2021-05-26 Regex version mismatch, expected: 10.39 2021-10-29 actual: 10.37 2021-05-26 Regex version mismatch, expected: 10.39 2021-10-29 actual: 10.37 2021-05-26 Regex version mismatch, expected: 10.39 2021-10-29 actual: 10.37 2021-05-26 Regex version mismatch, expected: 10.39 2021-10-29 actual: 10.37 2021-05-26 Regex version mismatch, expected: 10.39 2021-10-29 actual: 10.37 2021-05-26 restorecon: Regex version mismatch, expected: 10.39 2021-10-29 actual: 10.37 2021-05-26 restorecon: Regex version mismatch, expected: 10.39 2021-10-29 actual: 10.37 2021-05-26 restorecon: Regex version mismatch, expected: 10.39 2021-10-29 actual: 10.37 2021-05-26 2022-01-16T10:41:00-0500 INFO Regex version mismatch, expected: 10.39 2021-10-29 actual: 10.37 2021-05-26 Regex version mismatch, expected: 10.39 2021-10-29 actual: 10.37 2021-05-26 Regex version mismatch, expected: 10.39 2021-10-29 actual: 10.37 2021-05-26 2022-01-16T10:41:00-0500 INFO Regex version mismatch, expected: 10.39 2021-10-29 actual: 10.37 2021-05-26 Regex version mismatch, expected: 10.39 2021-10-29 actual: 10.37 2021-05-26 Regex version mismatch, expected: 10.39 2021-10-29 actual: 10.37 2021-05-26 2022-01-16T10:41:04-0500 INFO Regex version mismatch, expected: 10.39 2021-10-29 actual: 10.37 2021-05-26 Regex version mismatch, expected: 10.39 2021-10-29 actual: 10.37 2021-05-26 Regex version mismatch, expected: 10.39 2021-10-29 actual: 10.37 2021-05-26 2022-01-16T10:41:04-0500 INFO Regex version mismatch, expected: 10.39 2021-10-29 actual: 10.37 2021-05-26 Regex version mismatch, expected: 10.39 2021-10-29 actual: 10.37 2021-05-26 Regex version mismatch, expected: 10.39 2021-10-29 actual: 10.37 2021-05-26 What should I do about this? thanks
