[Bug 1294988] New: Feedback section - to file a report: install-guide is found under "Fedora Documentation", not "Fedora"

by Red Hat Bugzilla

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1294988 Bug ID: 1294988 Summary: Feedback section - to file a report: install-guide is found under "Fedora Documentation", not "Fedora" Product: Fedora Documentation Version: devel Component: install-guide Assignee: pbokoc(a)redhat.com Reporter: alan.christopher.jenkins(a)gmail.com QA Contact: docs-qa(a)lists.fedoraproject.org CC: pbokoc(a)redhat.com, zach(a)oglesby.co https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/Fedora/23/html/Installation_Guide/pr... "If you find a typographical error in this manual, or if you have thought of a way to make this manual better, we would love to hear from you! Please submit a report in Bugzilla: http://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/ against the product Fedora." I think it needs to say "Fedora Documentation" instead of "Fedora". -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the QA Contact for the bug.

[Bug 1232568] New: Clarification of VNCServer setup Requsted

by Red Hat Bugzilla

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1232568 Bug ID: 1232568 Summary: Clarification of VNCServer setup Requsted Product: Fedora Documentation Version: devel Component: system-administrator's-guide Assignee: swadeley(a)redhat.com Reporter: eckirchn(a)gmail.com QA Contact: docs-qa(a)lists.fedoraproject.org CC: swadeley(a)redhat.com using: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/Fedora/21/html/System_Administrators... [in the below statements X = {1, 2, 3....10}] I was able to install and connect to a VNC session using "vncviewer -via XXXXX" however it was only after executing "systemctl start vncserver@:X.service' on the remote machine. Executing systemctl enable vncserver@:X.service results in: Failed to execute operation: No such file or directory Section 8.1.3. Starting VNC Server states: systemctl enable vncserver@:display_number.service however, unless one creates a file such as: vncserver@:X.service the command systemctl enable vncserver@:X.service does not work. After some time with the help of [coolmadmax] on IRC://#Fedora, I was able to understand this was where I was missing a step. I think it would help to add some clarifying statements here to help others. The guide [coolmadmax] suggested: https://stufs4u.wordpress.com/2014/02/25/install-and-configure-vnc-server... added this ounce of clarification. Help on this issue included [mutk] [fenrus02] [kendell] [devhen] and [_AnK] and I thank all. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the QA Contact for the bug.

[Bug 1272433] New: A "short" table of contents would improve the document (IMO)

by Red Hat Bugzilla

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1272433 Bug ID: 1272433 Summary: A "short" table of contents would improve the document (IMO) Product: Fedora Documentation Version: devel Component: system-administrator's-guide Assignee: swadeley(a)redhat.com Reporter: nljlistbox2(a)gmail.com QA Contact: docs-qa(a)lists.fedoraproject.org CC: swadeley(a)redhat.com Description of problem: The Fedora 21 System Administrator's Guide has a very detailed table of contents which is good, but it hinders quick navigation and makes it hard to grasp the scope of the document. IMO it would improve the document to add a "short" table of contents before the existing long table of contents. Something with the following level of detail would be good: Preface 1. Target Audience 2. How to Read this Book 3. Document Conventions 4. We Need Feedback! 5. Acknowledgments I. Basic System Configuration 1. Opening Graphical Applications 2. System Locale and Keyboard Configuration 3. Configuring the Date and Time 4. Managing Users and Groups II. Package Management 5. Yum III. Infrastructure Services 6. Services and Daemons 7. OpenSSH 8. TigerVNC IV. Servers 9. Web Servers 10. Mail Servers 11. Directory Servers 12. File and Print Servers 13. Configuring NTP Using the chrony Suite 14. Configuring NTP Using ntpd 15. Configuring PTP Using ptp4l V. Monitoring and Automation 16. System Monitoring Tools 17. Viewing and Managing Log Files 18. Automating System Tasks 19. OProfile VI. Kernel, Module and Driver Configuration 20. Working with the GRUB 2 Boot Loader 21. Manually Upgrading the Kernel 22. Working with Kernel Modules A. RPM B.

[Bug 1278460] New: Add warning that FreeIPA guide is out of date

by Red Hat Bugzilla

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1278460 Bug ID: 1278460 Summary: Add warning that FreeIPA guide is out of date Product: Fedora Documentation Version: devel Component: freeipa-guide Assignee: mkosek(a)redhat.com Reporter: pspacek(a)redhat.com QA Contact: docs-qa(a)lists.fedoraproject.org CC: mkosek(a)redhat.com Description of problem: Docs related to FreeIPA like https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/Fedora/15/html/FreeIPA_Guide/Using_M... are quite old and outdated. This makes our life hard because Google is offering these old docs all the time and people are trying to use it, despite the fact that it is outdated. Please add BIG FAT warning on top of each page in the guide and say 'This is outdated, go and read http://www.freeipa.org/page/Documentation instead!' I imagine something like Warning box on top of each page before any other text. I have no idea if it is possible or not.

[Bug 977042] New: GUI examples presume GNOME without stating it is GNOME

by Red Hat Bugzilla

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=977042 Bug ID: 977042 Summary: GUI examples presume GNOME without stating it is GNOME Product: Fedora Documentation Version: devel Component: system-administrator's-guide Severity: unspecified Priority: unspecified Assignee: jhradile(a)redhat.com Reporter: me(a)petetravis.com QA Contact: docs-qa(a)lists.fedoraproject.org CC: jhradile(a)redhat.com The System Administrator's Guide references a number of GUI utilities, many of which are specific to GNOME. It isn't immediately obvious to the uninitiated that this is the case, causing non-GNOME users to find fault with the guide. I suggest an admonition in the preface along the lines of "Some of the graphical procedures and menu locations are specific to GNOME, but most command line instructions will be universally applicable" Comprehensively differentiating between GNOME procedures, procedures for other DEs, and universal procedures would probably be prohibitively time consuming. --Pete -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the QA Contact for the bug.

[Bug 997219] New: No "Write to Disk" option for ISO images in Fedora 19

by Red Hat Bugzilla

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=997219 Bug ID: 997219 Summary: No "Write to Disk" option for ISO images in Fedora 19 Product: Fedora Documentation Version: devel Component: readme-burning-isos Assignee: oglesbyzm(a)gmail.com Reporter: sirjake(a)gmail.com QA Contact: docs-qa(a)lists.fedoraproject.org CC: oglesbyzm(a)gmail.com, stickster(a)gmail.com Description of problem: Guide says that you can right click on a ISO image and choose "Write to disc." This is not true, at least with Fedora 19. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 19 How reproducible: Always, at least in 32 bit. Steps to Reproduce: 1. http://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/Fedora/19/html/Burning_ISO_images_to_... 2. Insert a DVD. 3. Attempt to follow the directions above. No "Write to disk" option exists. Actual results: No obvious way to burn ISO images in Fedora Linux 19. Expected results: Directions to burn ISO disk in Fedora Linux 19 Additional info: I had a new-to-me computer that I assumed would not support 64 bit, but after installing 32 bit found out that 64 was supported by my processor. I downloaded 64 ( Fedora-Live-Desktop-x86_64-19-1.iso ), and wanted to burn a disk of it, but the option was not available and the directions online did not help. I had to go back to Windows on a different machine to burn it. Note: I do have a DVD burner on this machine. The same thing occurs with CD's in the burner. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the QA Contact for the bug.
