Any Jython users out there? Please speak up!
by Miro Hrončok
Hello Fedora users.
I am one of the Fedora's Python maintainers.
One of the several Python implementations we have in Fedora is Jython:
https://www.jython.org/
It has just been removed from Fedora Rawhide (Fedora 35+) because nobody
volunteered to maintain it. I'd like to know if we have some users who will be
negatively impacted by Jython removal, so I can work with them to find a solution.
Being a Pythonista myself, I don't know any Jython users running Fedora. If you
use Jython on Fedora, please let me know how you install Jython: If it is from
the Fedora package or from elsewhere, e.g. trough maven or downloading the
installer from jython.org, or something entirely different.
Thanks,

what's the relationship between rubygem deps and gem installing
them?
by Robert P. J. Day
possibly off-topic as it likely applies to other linux distros, but
i'm diving into ruby and i'm well aware that if i install, say,
vagrant, it comes with a pile of rubygem dependencies:
Installing:
vagrant noarch 2.2.9-3.fc33 fedora 572 k
Installing dependencies:
bsdtar x86_64 3.5.1-1.fc33 updates 65 k
rubygem-childprocess noarch 1.0.1-6.fc33 fedora 60 k
rubygem-domain_name noarch 0.5.20190701-3.fc33 fedora 53 k
rubygem-erubis noarch 2.7.0-23.fc33 fedora 39 k
rubygem-ffi x86_64 1.12.1-3.fc33 fedora 106 k
rubygem-fog-libvirt noarch 0.7.0-3.fc33 fedora 33 k
... etc etc ...
fair enough, but is there any effect from personally installing any
of those ruby gems using "gem install"? if i install ruby gems as a
regular user, they get planted under ~/.gem/..., but i assume those
are not taken into account when i'm installing vagrant.
on the other hand, if i install (as root) a gem using "gem install"
under /usr/share/gems, will the install process take that into
account?

Two questions at once, arn't I being curious?
by Francisco Tissera
Hello everyone,
To day I received a notification telling me that important OS updates
were ready to install.
Instead of installing them from the software center though, I went ahead
and opened up terminal and ran
sudo dnf upgrade --refresh
because i like the --refresh command a lot. Well, my question is, is it
the same to run the updates from terminal and from the software center?
does it matter from where they are ran?
The other question, totally unrelated, is: does anyone know/use a sound
theme that is not the default one, and believe it's a good sound theme?
if so, where can I get it, and how can I install a sound theme in Fedora?
Thank you for any answer.
Best regards.
Francisco.

Turning of webcam auto-focus
by Paul Smith
Dear All,
To turn off the auto-focus feature of my webcam, I used the following command:
v4l2-ctl -c focus_auto=0
However, recently, the same command returns the following:
# v4l2-ctl -c focus_auto=0
unknown control 'focus_auto'
#
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance,
Paul

A question about switching kernels
by Francisco Tissera
Hello everyone,
Just a few minutes ago, i updated my system, and found out that from
kernel version 5.10.19, there was an upgrade to 5.10.20, which I gladly did.
Well, when i, after rebooting, typed uname -r, I found out that i was
still using kernel 5.10.19, instead of 20.
Is there a way to switch to the new installed kernel and remove the old
one, is it safe to do so? if so, how?
Thank you for any answer.
Best regards.
Francisco.

Hello Samuel,
Thank you.
Interesting thing is, although I installed 5.10.20, the only available version in the grub menu is 5.10.19, strange.
Best regards.
Francisco.

You can remove any kernel that's not the running one. But it shouldn't
be necessary.
Removing any kernel, sure.
But don’t do it on anyone referenced by your bootloader, or you’ll have to do some repair activities.

Using WD MYCloud Ultra NAS
by Robert McBroom
Added a WD Mycloud Ultra NAS to my local network. Some variant of NFS is
used. There are two shares, one designated as public for access by all
systems on the network and one with a user and password.
Both are accessible on Windows systems on the network. The public share
can be mounted on Fedora 33 with the command--
-----
~]# mount -t nfs 192.168.1.248:/mnt/HD/HD_a2/Public /mnt/Public
Created symlink
/run/systemd/system/remote-fs.target.wants/rpc-statd.service →
/usr/lib/systemd/system/rpc-statd.service.
-----
If the same type of command is used for the other share
-----
~]# mount -t nfs 192.168.1.248:/mnt/HD/HD_a2/mcstuffy /mnt/mcstuffy
Created symlink
/run/systemd/system/remote-fs.target.wants/rpc-statd.service →
/usr/lib/systemd/system/rpc-statd.service.
mount.nfs: Protocol not supported
-----
I don't see anyway to specify the user/password. Things I find with
search seem to be quite out of date.
Another mode of access is supposedly
nfs://192.168.1.248/nfs/mcstuffy
using this in a mount command gets NFS URL not supported. dolphin and
konqueror do not see it either.
Any help would be appreciated
