F25, Electrum and Trezor
by Mark
Hi
I'm testing Electrum on Fedora 25 and I'm missing the support for
hardware wallet that Electrum is supposed to have. Do I need to install
some additional package or has this feature been omitted?
Cheers

Terrible F25 WiFi Performance
by Christopher
Since I upgraded to Fedora 25, I've had terrible network performance, and
I'm not sure what's causing it.
Any suggestions for troubleshooting or optimization?
Any known issues with the "Intel Wireless 7265D" card or the "iwlwifi"
driver in F25?
Everything worked great in F24, but since F25, I get poor download speeds,
and *REALLY* poor upload speeds. I should get a steady 25/25 Mbps down/up.
Instead, I get an unsteady 6-20 Mbps down, and only ~1 Mbps up. I've ruled
out everything but Fedora 25 (same hardware works fine in F24 and Windows),
and it's making me kinda want to go back to F24. :(

r8712u driver fails in F25
by David A. De Graaf
The r8712u driver from the staging area has stopped working in Fedora
25. This driver supports (among others) my emergency USB DLink DWA-130
adapter that I use when the laptop's built in wireless (Qualcomm
Atheros QCA9377 802.11ac) is "too advanced" to connect to some old
wireless router.
The r8712u driver works just fine in Fedora 24 and it seems to be
substantially unchanged.
I ran 'modinfo r8712u' on both F24 and F25 and diff'd them.
The only differences are in the filesystem locations and labelling.
There was no other substantial difference.
I've monitored dmesg while plugging the DLink adapter in and it's
apparent that
1 - it is detected with proper vendor and product IDs.
2 - the r8712u module is selected and registered.
3 - the correct firmware is loaded from rtlwifi/rtl8712u.bin
4 - an endless stream of messages ensues:
[ 262.524809] IPv6: ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP): wlan1: link is not ready
and, of course, the new interface never becomes available to
NetworkManager.
What's gone wrong?
Why does the same driver work in Fedora 24 but not in Fedora 25?
How do I regain operability?

gphoto2 problem -
by Bob Goodwin
.
About a week ago I began to have a
problem with gphoto2 which normally just
works.
I don't use it every day and I don't
know exactly when it began doing this
but there were updates from Fedora and
Apple. The only thing I found via Google
was mention of a lock problem and this
does not appear to be a lock problem.
The camera is detected:
photosnew]$ gphoto2 --auto-detect
Model Port
----------------------------------------------------------
Apple iPhone 5 (PTP mode) usb:003,006
[bobg@box10 photosnew]$ gphoto2
--get-all-files
However any command to download from the
camera yields the following error:
photosnew]$ gphoto2 --get-all-files
*** Error ***
PTP Invalid Storage ID
*** Error (-1: 'Unspecified error') ***
For debugging messages, please use the
--debug option.
Debugging messages may help finding a
solution to your problem.
If you intend to send any error or debug
messages to the gphoto
developer mailing list
<gphoto-devel(a)lists.sourceforge.net>,
please run
gphoto2 as follows:
env LANG=C gphoto2 --debug
--debug-logfile=my-logfile.txt
--get-all-files
Please make sure there is sufficient
quoting around the arguments.
I dunno what to do, any help appreciated,
Bob

Networkmanagre Refuses to use my Dlink DWA-192 USB Wifi Device in F24
by Stephen Morris
Hi,
Some time ago I was using this device on the 2.4GHz channel (Linux
has always refused to use the 5GHz channel, I say Linux, because Ubuntu
has always refused to use the 5GHz channel as Fedora has always refused
to) and when it was working it was via the ATH9K driver.
I switched the network to using Ethernet devices which are still
working fine, but I wanted to go back to wifi again because the wifi
throughput is potentially faster (the Ethernet devices sends/receives at
500Mbps whereas the 2.4GHz channel on wifi sends/receives at 600Mbps, if
I could ever get the 5GHz channel working it sends/receives at
1300Mbps), but Networkmanager refuses to activate the wifi device now.
How do I identify whether its the 4.8 kernels which are the issue
or whether its Networkmanager and how do I rectify the situation? I am
using kde at the moment and I have cut and pasted the wifi password back
into the Networkmanager definition, and had the new password stored in
Kwallet, but Networkmanager still refuses to recognize that the device
is a device it can connect to. I should also add that the device works
fine under Windows 10.

Steve

F24>F25 system-upgrade : how to recover half-done upgrade ?
by sean darcy
I'm trying to upgrade an older machine from F24 to F25. It failed
half-way through :
................
dnf[627]: Installing : kernel-core-4.9.10-200.fc25.x86_64
1079/3109
dnf[627]: Installing : kernel-modules-4.9.10-200.fc25.x86_64
1080/3109
thermal thermal_zone0: critical temperature reached(97 C),shutting down
......
I'll fix the fan. But where do I go ? dnf system-upgrade reboot ? Or
start all over again with download ?

Mount of NAS Ethernet Connect to Router Fails at Boot Time for CIFS
Interface in F24
by Stephen Morris
Hi,
My Nas device now fails to mount at boot time via the CIFS
definition in fstab but the corresponding NFS definition mounts quite
happily. Also after the system comes up and I log into KDE I can
manually mount the CIFS device. As far as I am aware the only difference
between when it was mounting at boot time and now is several system
updates, also the system update I did yesterday morning (which updated
several hundred packages, which included a new kernel) has not rectified
the issue. The systemctl output is below, I have blanked out the userid
and password for security reasons.
Does anyone have any ideas why this has now stopped working?

Odd ping problem
by Gary Stainburn
Here's an odd one for you.
I have a Fedora 19 box - GROUCHO - that is the DNS/DHCP/email/...... server
for one of my LANs
On there I have a home-grown network status monitor which pings a list of IP's
and monitors the state, reporting anything that goes missing.
The IP address of this host is 10.6.1.1/24
I also have a Centos 7 box - ZEPPO - on the same subnet/VLAN. This box is a
file/print server.
This box has two IP addresses 10,6.1.3/24 and 10.6.1.101/24
Groucho happily pings Zeppo on the 10.6.1.101 address.
I have now added a USB WiFi dongle to Zeppo and configured it using nmtui.
This is to put Zeppo onto the WiFi and enable Air Printing from IPads.
All of this works perfectly fine, and no other devices have any issues -
except groucho.
If the WiFi link is up on Zeppo, Groucho cannot ping it. If the WiFi link is
down on Zeppo, Groucho can ping it. As I say, the WiFi link state doesn not
affect any other device, Linux or otherwise.
Neither device have firewalling enabled (for this testing) and both devices
have very simple routing tables. Even when Groucho cannot ping Zeppo, Zeppo
can still ping Groucho
