Dell E7470 Install: No bootable device found
by Michael B Allen
I just tried to install F24 and everything went smoothly but after
reboot I just get "No bootable devices found".
I've been using Linux as my primary machine since kernel 2.0.35 and my
instinct tells me this looks like the bootloader wasn't installed
correctly.
Is this a known problem?
When I "reclaimed" space my drive looked something like the following:
sda1 Dell Utiility
sda2 Windows Recovery
sda3 Windows OS
So I deleted Windows and reclaimed but I want to leave the Dell
utility and Windows recovery partition.
So how do I install the bootloader in F24 so that it boots sda3?
Is grub still being used?
It's been ~5 years since I last installed Linux so I'm not familiar
with the latest tool chain.

can't shutdown (a stop job is running...)
by Neal Becker
For quite some time now, when I try to reboot (from kde) the shutdown gets
stuck saying "a stop job is running for ...". I just hold the power button.
Any ideas?

How do I restart the Desktop Manager under Fedora 24
by Javier Perez
Hi, I need some help
This is for a home computer
My desktop manager is freezing (XFCE). I can ssh into the system.
But I do not know how to restart the desktop manager.
My google fu is not working. I google by "restart desktop manager fedora
24" but do not get anything remotely useful. Maybe I am not using the magic
incantation words.
Thanks

nc missing option -z
by Suvayu Ali
Hi,
I used to use netcat to check if a particular host is up or if I have
internet connection before I run a few scripts. I would use the -z
option in particular. But now I see that has been removed:
$ nc -z imap.gmail.com 993 && sync-my-email.sh
ncat: invalid option -- 'z'
Here is the excerpt from the old manual page:
-z Specifies that nc should just scan for listening daemons, without
sending any data to them. It is an error to use this option in
conjunction with the -l option.
Any ideas what happened to it? What can I use as replacement?
Thanks for any ideas.

install.img
by CLOSE Dave
I need a copy of the install.img file for Fedora 20. It doesn't seem to
be present in archives.fedoraproject.org or in the F20 netinstall ISO.
Can anyone point me to a copy?

KP_end
by Patrick Dupre
Hello,
In fedora 24, I observe a different behavior than under fc22.
I am using a french keyboard (alternative)
The key "page down" generates a KP_End
and the key "page up" generates a KP_Home
while "end" generates a End
and "home" generates a Home
I would have expect a KP_Prior or a KP_Next.
When a make a man
the key "page down" and "end" give the same result: End
the key "page up" and "home" give the same result: Home
It means that I do not have any page up or page down with man.
Also, the numerical pad does not help either because the KP_Prior
does the same as a Home, and KP_Next does a End
Any clue?
Thank
