Hi All, Anyone know of a Fedora/Xfce table out there? I will need a least one USB port, one Ethernet port, and 802.11 b/g/n. I need it to read notes from my USB stick and to test Internet connections at customer sites. Many thanks, -T

Fedora release cycle -- F18 January 2013?

by James Freer

I was looking at the release cycle dates which are aimed for 1 May (may Bank Holiday) and 31 Oct (Halloween). F18 came out this month (instead of November 2012) - i installed F17 in December thinking i was installing the latest version (ok it was but not what i thought). I assume there were problems to be overcome or is it released quite often a couple of months late. thanks james

Change window manager??

by Beartooth

Most of my PCs run xfce4 under F17 (fully updated); they've been having mouse- a/o keyboard troubles lately, and sometimes also display troubles, for all of which my usual suspect is my KVM switch or its cables. So I shut everything down, took each PC off the switch, connected all the peripherals directly, and ran it for about a week. Today I put everything back. Now PC #1 has a weird trouble, even though it does see all the peripherals. The workspace switcher lets me tell it I want 16 or 18 spaces, but it shows only four of them down on the panel, and won't let me get to any but the first. Also, although the apps I have running do respond, I can't move their windows around, nor even change which is on top. I'm guessing that metacity, or maybe nautilus or thunar, may have some bug somewhere. How do I get to the config files for those and experiment with them?? -- Beartooth Sciurivore, Curmudgeon On Line Death is not evil. Suffering is evil.

F18: GNOME-Keyring is not unlocked after login

by Miro Hrončok

Hi, I've just installed Fedora 18 Xfce and I have some issues: I don't know yet if they ar bugs. Here is the first one. LightDM doesn't unlock GNOME-Keyring. After I log in, first time a password is needed, I am prompted again. Is this a bug? Should I install some pam packages or do some magic? Thanks, Miro Hrončok Jabber: miro(a)hroncok.cz Telefon: +420777974800

Graphics menu category untranslated (Czech)

by Miro Hrončok

Hi, Fedora 18 Xfce, Czech locales, the Graphics menu category is not translated (I mean the name of the category, not the content of it). http://files.hroncok.cz/graphics-category.png Does anyone know where are the translations taken from and what component is responsible for this? I would like to report it on Bugzilla, but I have no idea, what component I should assign it to. Thanks for any help. -- Miro Hrončok -- Phone: +420777974800 Jabber: miro(a)hroncok.cz

Updating - installing apt/synaptic

by James Freer

I'm new to Fedora having used xubuntu for 5 years. I installed the F17 xfce last night and found there were over 500 updates and this seemed to take much longer than xubuntu. Does rpm take longer than deb distros for updating. It would seem to me that yum is a more complex app and thus could take longer. I did a google last night and noticed that some folk install apt/synaptic for package management - has anyone done that? any problems (because i'm about to try!). james

Re: F18: Sleep at closing the lid, regardless of my current settings

by Raphael Groner

Ho Miro, your issue is no bug and not any crap. That's a systemd feature and an already upstreamed feature request for Xfce. But be aware that there is a work around. It has been discussed already on this list and on the xfce upstream list. You can prevent systemd from taking power management action via the configuration file /etc/systemd/logind.conf : $ grep Handle /etc/systemd/logind.conf #HandlePowerKey=poweroff #HandleSuspendKey=suspend #HandleHibernateKey=hibernate #HandleLidSwitch=suspend Set the wished option to the "ignore" value after the = charachter and remove the comment marker #. For instance, HandleLidSwitch=ignore $ man logind.conf Look also at the following upstream bug report about systemd compatibility. https://bugzilla.xfce.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9335 Greets, Raphael > Date: Thu, 3 Jan 2013 09:02:04 +0100 > From: Miro Hrončok <miro(a)hroncok.cz> > To: Fedora users and developers <xfce(a)lists.fedoraproject.org> > Subject: F18: Sleep at closing the lid, regardless of my current > settings > Message-ID: > <CAG7fsRSGrmUo2Ygz0bV-zU43+yRsbSNz9M+xOGsDqPZ6ESEUKg(a)mail.gmail.com> > Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 > > Hi, > > in Fedora 18, if I set in Power Manager: When on AC, when on battery > (both): When closing the lid: Do nothing [My system is localised, so > it might be diferent], it still suspends, when I close the lid.
