Camera mounting
by jarmo
Just found weirdo action. i connect my olympus camera into computer.
Nothing happens, but I can find "unknown" in filemanager. Now try to
open it, I get response, that need to be root, to mount camera into
system???? What? Earlier I could mount it as a normal user...
What has happened, not using selinux or so.. Have updated system some
three times, after last camera mount, so why now have to be root, mount
camera?

F21 Cant login
by Mike Chambers
Just installed F21 via NFS, using KDE as my workstation. It booted up to
the login screen, but it won't login. Have tried both GUI and terminal and
neither will login, whether regular user or root.

Cinnamon / tint2
by Pal, Laszlo
Hi,
In one of the previous update some clever guy made tint2 as dependency
of Cinnamon... I don't know why, but it seems making my favourite
environment much more unstable than earlier. At least handling the
systray is a complete mess... how can I get rid of this tiny but
annoying component?
Thanks

the newest dracut should go into 'emergency' mode and then you can save
the dmesg output onto an USB key.
Unfortunately I've done it before :D

Re: how to accurately test internet upload & download speed
by J.Witvliet＠mindef.nl
(Sorry for TP)
Measuring speed can be a pig.
On the net there are a bunch of sites, claiming they can do this.
However, some require that you have to install all sorts of crap-ware, you to enable eye-candy.
Furthermore, what do you need to know?
Latency or bandwidth, up-stream or down-stream?
And often you and-up measuring the weakest link in the chain, and that does not have to be your connection to your ISP.
One (!) Good way is trying to down load a reasonable large enough file from a site you know that has enough bandwidth, and fast enough storage.
Here in europe, i use ftp5.gwdg.de, a site connected to the university network with 10Gbps
If the file you choose is to small, the measurement in inaccurate: it should take at least about a minute.
Btw, it might be handy to check routing and DNS :-)

Re: Question for Fedora users of Garmin nuvi GPS (SOLVED)

Hello, Everyone
In the USB settings for my Windows 7 virtual machine, this item was
unchecked: "Enable USB 2.0 (EHCI) Controller" The other USB box was
checked, though. So, when I checked the box and clicked "OK",
GarminExpress finally recognized my GPS, and it is now fully updated!
As soon as I applied that setting, I also got a "Found new hardware"
wizard from Windows! Now this kind of thing won't happen to me again.

running instance on OpenStack Folsom release
by Denis Betivu
Hello,
I installed OpenStack Folsom on Fedora 18 according to the instructions I found on this website:
fedoraproject.org/wiki/Getting_started_with_OpenStack_on_Fedora_18
but I encountered an error when trying to launch an instance. I googled a lot but I could not find anybody else
who encountered this particular issue.
My log file is the following:

Fedora on StackExchange
by Carl Bennett
Hey,
Just trying to get this to have more visibility:
http://area51.stackexchange.com/proposals/67392/fedora
I think it could definitely benefit Fedora users and enthusiasts as a
whole. It would be helpful to have a Q&A on Stack Exchange for Fedora
specifically so that Fedora-specific questions can be answered. There's
multiple reasons for supporting this, and hey even Ubuntu has its own.
If you're familiar with Stack Overflow, Server Fault, Super User, and Ask
Ubuntu (to name a few), please give your attention to this Stack Exchange
proposal. It could really use it.
Thanks!

why do we use systemd?
by Balint Szigeti
http://ewontfix.com/15/
http://ewontfix.com/14/
Just read them and protest to developer drop this piece of sh*t!
This implementation is going to become Linux to Windows. The system will
have main almighty process which can't be updated without restart. If
that process will be corrupted the all system is f****d. Why did we
choose it?
I really do NOT understand
