screen lock - ? - not locking
by lejeczek
Hi guys.
I have "Automatic Screen Lock Delay" set to "5 minutes" but
instead of locked screen I get some apps reshuffled between
two monitors.
My setup is laptop (AMD APU) with external monitor which
monitor is set to "Primary".
It's mostly Thunderbird which I keep on laptop-display and
when this non-lock happens I find Thunderbird moved to
"primary" and some Firefox/Chromium windows moved from
Primary to laptop.
Something looks like seriously fcuked up with recent f35, it
was not weird from the start, updates from recent months
introduced this I think.
I say seriously because the fact that "locking" does not
work is serious - Fedora eventually locks the screen but
that is not that first "5 minutes".
It seems that it takes a few - how many I did not time -
tries before it succeeds.
Anybody sees this or similar misbehavior?
many thanks, L.

fact that the text can be BOLDED again! But this bright white?..is
KILLING my eyes! Just wondering is all!

Creating a wi-fi device
by Geoffrey Leach
When Fedora 32 was installed on my laptop it did not creat a wi-fi device
(aka wlan0). How should I go about creating the appropriate device?
Thanks.

Kernel 5.16.18 refuses to process sound
by Temlakos
Everyone:
Today I recorded a video using Open Broadcast Studio (OBS) and a
Logitech BRIO camera with build-in microphone that has delivered
flawless performance to date.
Imagine my shock and chagrin when I played a video I had just recorded,
only to find that I had picture, but no sound.
I just fell back on Kernel 5.16.17, and it picked up the sound just
fine. Last Known Good and all that.
All that to say this: the kernel has a bug, and killed the handling of
sound from microphones. At least in the current version. The last
version handled it without a hitch and still does.
I have removed that version of the kernel and would like to skip it. Two
questions:
1. How do I set DNFDragora to skip a current version and call me back
when it has a new version of the kernel for me to try out?
2. How do I file a bug against the kernel? I tried accessing a bug
reporting program but don't know where to find it.

setup for M/L (nvidia)
by Neal Becker
Trying to setup for machine learning. Here's what I tried. Actually, we
can just view dnf history. In reverse chronological order:
1. install the nvidia device driver from rpmfusion:
sudo dnf install
61 | install /var/cudnn-local-repo-rhel7-8.3.2.44/libcudn | 2022-03-31
18:38 | Install | 1
60 | install /home/nbecker/Downloads/cudnn-local-repo-rhe | 2022-03-31
18:37 | Install | 1
59 | install cuda | 2022-03-31
15:55 | Install | 60 <
58 | install xorg-x11-drv-nvidia-cuda | 2022-03-31
15:23 | Install | 4 >
57 | -y install --disablerepo=* /tmp/akmods.VU8cZxAa/resu | 2022-03-31
14:57 | Install | 1
56 | install akmod-nvidia | 2022-03-31
14:49 | Install | 62 E<
After installing akmod-nvidia, we need to obtain cuda and cudnn direct from
nvidia. They have setup repos, which after installation
provide:
baseurl=
https://developer.download.nvidia.com/compute/cuda/repos/fedora35/x86_64
and a local repo:
baseurl=file:///var/cudnn-local-repo-rhel7-8.3.2.44
While nvidia provides fedora specific cuda I could only find rhel7 version
of cudnn.
The installations succeed and everything is working. But with these new
repos enabled update is broken:
sudo dnf update
[sudo] password for nbecker:

Skipping packages with conflicts:
(add '--best --allowerasing' to command line to force their upgrade):
nvidia-driver x86_64 3:510.47.03-1.fc35
cuda-fedora35-x86_64 22 M
nvidia-driver-libs x86_64 3:510.47.03-1.fc35
cuda-fedora35-x86_64 168 M
If I read this correctly nvidia's version (which provides driver 510.47)
obsoletes the one from rpmfusion (which is actually newer?).
The only solution I can think of for now is just disable those 2 nvidia
repos after installation.
Has anyone setup M/L nvidia on fedora and have a better solution?
Thanks,
Neal
