how to tell where it booted from
by Mike Wright
Hi everybody,
I have several large disks filled with experiments and multiboots. I
need to make changes to the current /boot/grub/grub.cfg but I have no
idea which one I'm using or which one of the systems' grub config tools
were used so I don't dare just grab any old one and use it
I've searched through seven VolumeGroups full of LogicalVolumes and
can't seem to find the one I'm using. Also combed through partitions
that are not part of LVM.
Does the boot process leave any footprints behind telling where it
booted from?
Rapidly losing what little is left of my mind...
TIA,
Mike Wright

clamav-notify-servers periodically reports "gave '' response"
by Alex
Hi,
I have a fedora23 system with clamav installed, and periodically
clamav-notify-servers fails to actually notify the server and responds
with
clamd server '/var/run/clamd.amavisd/clamd.sock' gave '' response
I was just hoping someone else had encountered this problem and had a
solution. I've seen it before, and it's been fixed with an update, but
it's been going on for some time now. I believe in the past it was a
permissions problem with the socket used to communicate with clamd,
but the permissions are the same on this host with the problem as they
are on another host without the problem.
# rpm -qva|grep clamav
clamav-lib-0.99-2.fc23.x86_64
clamav-data-0.99-2.fc23.noarch
clamav-0.99-2.fc23.x86_64
clamav-server-systemd-0.99-2.fc23.noarch
clamav-server-0.99-2.fc23.x86_64
clamav-filesystem-0.99-2.fc23.noarch
clamav-update-0.99-2.fc23.x86_64
clamav-unofficial-sigs-3.7.1-13.fc23.noarch
# rpm -q amavisd-new
amavisd-new-2.10.1-5.fc23.noarch
Any ideas greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Alex

gnome-disks: Disk is OK, 7080 bad sectors (31° C / 88° F)
by Richard Shaw
Um.... I'm not sure what the threshold should be for this drive (2TB) but I
would think that having over 7000 bad sectors it would not be considered OK.
In either case I plan on replacing the drive as soon as funds allow.
Thanks,
Richard

iptables address range -
by Bob Goodwin
I have a rule:
# config rule
option src lan
option dest wan
option src_ip 192.168.1.150
option proto all
option extra '-m time --weekdays
Sat,Sun,Mon,Tue,Wed,Thu,Fri --timestart
05:00 --timestop 24:00'
option target REJECT
Rather than have several similar rules
for different ip's it would be
convenient if I could just specify a
range of addresses on my LAN.
I tried several variations on things I
found in a wiki like:
# config rule
option src lan
option iprange --src-range
192.168.1.4-192.168.1.50
option dest wan
option proto icmp
option target DROP
But get "parse errors" when restarting
iptables with everything I've tried.
Obviously I'm in over my head here, just
trying to follow examples.
Any help is appreciated,
Bob

Scrolling gone haywire
by Go Canes
I'm trying to convert my wife's laptop from Windows 7 to Fedora 22 running
KDE 5. However, when she browses the web, occasionally the page will
scroll as fast it can - either up or down - with no input on her part,
other than loading the page.
The problem occurs with Firefox, Seamonkey, and Konqurer using KDE 5.
The problem does *not* occur at all under MS Windows 7, again using Firefox.
The hardware is a Dell XPS-13 laptop, originally came with MS Windows.
I have googled around, but haven't found anything that sounds similar. I'm
planning to see if there is enough space to load Gnome and see if it also
exhibits the same behavior.
Any suggestions for additional troubleshooting?

Problem with Memtest??
by Michael D. Setzer II
Was just trying to run memtest on a fedora 23 machine and it fails??
It shows
insmod bsd
echo 'message...'
knetbsd /elf-memtest86+5.01
When run, I see message, but then nothing.
Changing to
linux16 /memtest86+5.01
Seems to run like normal?
Does show that memtest has a Jan 29th date, so not sure if something got
broken, but hadn't actually tried running memtest since then till today??
