Fedora 42 fonts problem.
by George R Goffe 22 Jun '25

22 Jun '25

Howdy, This system is up to date with the FC42 packages repository. I prefer to start "x" manually and have /etc/inittab set to run level 3 (multi user). When I boot this system, the console fonts are VERY SMALL... to the point of unreadable... even with glasses. I have specified the boot parameter "ask=791" which sets the first part of the fonts but when the system continues and does a modeset(?), the fonts revert to REALLY SMALL. Personally, 791 isn't large enough. How can I get the fonts to be bigger? Best regards, George...

Issues with latest winehq-devel and wine-devel
by Michael D. Setzer II 22 Jun '25

On one system - Fedora 42 after upgrading to 10.9 it would fail running wine with anything notepad, cmd, and winecfg without using WINEDEBUG=+heap. but other systems with 10.9 worked fine with Fedora 42 and Fedora 41. Then after upgrading to 10.10 version had primary windows program I use have unusage changes to program display. Downgrade to 10.9 returned it to working just fine. Had other users using Unbutu have no problem with same App. Did a Virtual Box Clean install of Fedora 42, and get same results. App works fine with 10.9 but 10.10 has same unusable windows. downgrading to 10.9 gets it back to working. Created a Virtual Box Clean install of Unbuntu 25 (Nobel), and same app works fine with 10.10. Long ago had Redhat 9, but have used Fedora from Core 1 to latest 42. Was given a page that had instructions to get git version and do regression test, but has instructions to use apt. Was able to clone the git, and run configure and make to build the git version, but attempt to actually run the wine it build gives error that wine is a 64bit version but the wine-server is 32bit?? So, options are to stay at 10.9 or lower or drastically move to Unbutu? Seems that the WINEDEBUG=+heap just has it add could that implements use the ntdll/heap.c that has line 775 that has a close line that just tells it to ignore error if +heap option is set? With 10.10 get wine notepad 002c:err:seh:NtRaiseException Unhandled exception code c0000005 flags 0 addr 0x6fffffc4c173 0034:err:seh:NtRaiseException Unhandled exception code c0000005 flags 0 addr 0x6fffffc4c173 003c:err:seh:NtRaiseException Unhandled exception code c0000005 flags 0 addr 0x6fffffc4c173 Failure. # dnf downgrade winehq-devel Updating and loading repositories: Repositories loaded.

Need font help for Fedora 42 on Vevobook 16
by George R Goffe 21 Jun '25

21 Jun '25

Howdy, I had to replace my computer about a month ago and have been struggling ever since with the fonts that FC42 wants to use. I have made some headway with this problem but am stuck now and need help. The desktop I'm using is Window Maker. I've tried Wayland but the size of the screen is REALLY small. There are a lot of applications that like to use small fonts... like LibreOffice, Firefox, Chrome... and utility windows like "save file". I'm hoping that there's a nice/easy fix for this problem. Best regards, George...

USB BluRay Drive Wrongly Identified
by Richard Kimberly Heck 19 Jun '25

19 Jun '25

I have a BluRay drive that used to work with Fedora. I haven't used it for a while, but tried it today, and it's being treated as a SCSI drive. As a result, k3b (say) reports that it can't find an optical drive. Similarly, asunder thinks there's nothing from which it can rip a CD. Log below. Anything I can do?

Community support?

My "From:" address always comes back as "Community support for Fedora users". Is this on purpose? If not, is there a way to get my name on it instead?

local network
by Patrick Dupre 17 Jun '25

17 Jun '25

Hello, I tried to fix a small issue that I have. PC A is connected to internet through a USB port. This PC A has 2 RJ45 cards, connected to 2 PC: B and C. Both interface are in shared to other computers The problem is this one. I use /etc/hosts to put a name to each PC connected to A. PC A is normally always started first. If PC B and PC C are started always in the same order, there is no problem. But if I change the starting order, then I cannot connect to them from PC A. Initially, I configured Automatic DHCP on both (PC B and PC C). To avoid the issue, I set the configure Manually, but it does not really solve the issue. It seems that PC A configures the interface connected to PC C in 10.42.0.1 if PC C is started before PC B, and in 10.42.1.1 if PC C is started after PC B. In theory, I should not care, but it seems that if PC C is connected first to the interface then it is set in 10.42.0.1, then PC C address has to be something like 10.42.0.204 while if the interface has been set in 10.42.1.1, PC C address has to be like 10.42.1.204. How can I solve this issue? On PC A: Do I need to switch from shared to other computers to Manual? If Yes how should I configure ? 10.42.1.0 255.255.255.0 Gateway? DNS ? Thank. =========================================================================== Patrick DUPRÉ | | email: pdupre(a)gmx.com ===========================================================================
