Fwd: Live-user Autologin is not properly configured in fedora-live-kde-base.ks
by Sreyan Chakravarty 09 Apr '20

09 Apr '20

I have just installed the custom Kickstart files for creating live images by: sudo dnf install -y custom-kickstarts fedora-kickstarts I am using a flattened Kickstart file by using ksflatten: ksflatten --config /usr/share/spin-kickstarts/fedora-live-kde.ks -o flat-fedora-live-kde.ks Now I use the livecd-creator to create my ISO: livecd-creator --verbose --config=flat-fedora-live-kde.ks --fslabel=Fedora-KDE --cache=/var/cache/live The build process completes without any errors. Let me know if you need the build log since it is too large for PasteBin. I don't know how to share it. But when I use this created ISO to boot I am greeted with the SDDM Login screen for the Live User. Screenshot here: https://imgur.com/a/nbqxrnK I clicked enter leaving the password field blank but I am unable to login. The weirdest part is the autologin configuration functionality is present in the kickstart files: In fedora-live-kde-base.ks Lines: 25 - 35 # set up autologin for user liveuser if [ -f /etc/sddm.conf ]; then sed -i 's/^#User=.*/User=liveuser/' /etc/sddm.conf sed -i 's/^#Session=.*/Session=plasma.desktop/' /etc/sddm.conf else cat > /etc/sddm.conf << SDDM_EOF [Autologin] User=liveuser Session=plasma.desktop SDDM_EOF fi This should setup the auto login for the Live User, but why doesn't it work ? I can find no errors in my build process, so what is going wrong ? Did they change the configuration for SDDM in someway ? If so why isn't it there in the Kickstart file ? I have tried to contact the maintainer for this Kickstart file, lets see if there are any replies. Thanks. -- Regards, Sreyan Chakravarty -- Regards, Sreyan Chakravarty

Call for testing: KDE user switching (proposed Blocker bug #1817708)
by Adam Williamson 06 Apr '20

06 Apr '20

Hi folks! There is a proposed blocker bug in KDE for Fedora 32: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1817708 The bug is encountered when testing a KDE install with multiple user accounts, and switching between them. One specific set of steps Lukas could use to reproduce the bug is show in comment #1. However, it seems like the bug isn't fully reproducible, and may depend on timing or system configuration. So it would be good if more people could test in this area and see if they run into the problem. If you have a test system and some time to test this, please do a KDE install from a recent F32 image (e.g. https://kojipkgs.fedoraproject.org/compose/branched/Fedora-32-20200406.n.0/… ) and try creating multiple user accounts and switching between them, logging in and out. Please report back (here or in the bug report) whether you are able to trigger the bug, and how easily you are able to trigger it. Thanks a lot! -- Adam Williamson Fedora QA Community Monkey IRC: adamw | Twitter: AdamW_Fedora | XMPP: adamw AT happyassassin . net http://www.happyassassin.net

No microphone input
by Klaus Kolle 05 Apr '20

05 Apr '20

Hi everybody, I have this Lenovo Yoga 920 laptop running for one or two years now. It is a nice machine, but now when corona grounded I wanted to socialise a little with my daughters by eating together on distance. But I discovered that there was no microphone input to the video conference. I have this morning tried to install different software in order to overcome this problem, but with no luck. If I put in a headphone there is microphone input from the headset. I can't find any settings in the BIOS to enable or disable microphone. How do I find out if the microphone is working at all on this laptop? |< -- Med venlig hilsen Klaus Kolle Teknikumingeniør, B.Sc.EE., e-mail : klaus(a)kolle.dk Master of IT www : www.kolle.dk Asger Jorns Vej 17 Telephone : +4522216044 DK-8600 Silkeborg, Denmark "Man skal ikke tilskrive til sammensværgelser hvad der tilstrækkeligt kan forklares af inkompetence" Poul Henning Kamp Planlægning er tanker om noget man agter at gøre en gang i fremtiden, hvis omstændighederne tillader det.
