One VM works, one fails to start
by Patrick O'Callaghan 31 Oct '18

31 Oct '18

I have two VMs, both created under F28. One guest is Win-10, the other an F28 headless server. After upgrading to F29, the Win-10 guest works as before but the F28 guest won't start. The error I get is: Error starting domain: internal error: process exited while connecting to monitor: 2018-10-31T17:12:46.079682Z qemu-system-x86_64: can't apply global IvyBridge-IBRS-x86_64-cpu.osxsave=on: Property '.osxsave' not found Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/share/virt-manager/virtManager/asyncjob.py", line 75, in cb_wrapper callback(asyncjob, *args, **kwargs) File "/usr/share/virt-manager/virtManager/asyncjob.py", line 111, in tmpcb callback(*args, **kwargs) File "/usr/share/virt-manager/virtManager/libvirtobject.py", line 66, in newfn ret = fn(self, *args, **kwargs) File "/usr/share/virt-manager/virtManager/domain.py", line 1344, in startup self._backend.create() File "/usr/lib64/python3.7/site-packages/libvirt.py", line 1080, in create if ret == -1: raise libvirtError ('virDomainCreate() failed', dom=self) libvirt.libvirtError: internal error: process exited while connecting to monitor: 2018-10-31T17:12:46.079682Z qemu-system-x86_64: can't apply global IvyBridge-IBRS-x86_64-cpu.osxsave=on: Property '.osxsave' not found I've reported it: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1644848 poc

F29: Ufraw & ufraw-gimp
by Antonio M 31 Oct '18

31 Oct '18

I used to work with gimp+ufraw-gimp in F28. Now in F29, I can't use them, Gimp has the option to use darktable or Rawtherapee as plugin for raw files. Furthermore if I use Ufraw when I click on send to Gimp I get an error opening Gimp, stating that file is not svg type. Any idea?? Antonio Montagnani Linux Fedora 29 Workstation da/from Gmail

[SOLVED] Fedora 29: dnf not work after update from 28
by Dario Lesca 31 Oct '18

If you get the follow error, you can try this solution: $ sudo mv /var/lib/dnf/history /var/tmp/. (from here) https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1596540#c52 Then rerun dnf. Work for me.

F29: Thunderbird is in English and not in my language
by Antonio M 31 Oct '18

31 Oct '18

I updated my F28 and Thunderbird switched from Italian to English. Just a note, I suppose that I have to re-install the Italian language pack... Antonio Montagnani Linux Fedora 28 Workstation da/from Gmail

no hdmi audio on older tv
by Jiri Vanek 31 Oct '18

31 Oct '18

Hello! I have f29 (kernel-4.18.12-300.fc29.aarch64 ) on machine, which is changing its place from time to time - between two TVs. Old, and older:) Both are connected by HDMI. Video output is fine, even acceleration is working, but sound work only on newer of those two. I don't know if this is regression, because this machine replaced 32b rapbery2 with kodi, which was working without issues on both TVs (but was eaten by (not mine) dog) I was following https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/How_to_debug_sound_problems but had not found much: - with removed pulseaudio, the aplay -vv segfaults - I really on pulseaudio anyway, as I need to transfer sound to this machine over network - the diff of alsa-info.sh's is really minimal [1], only [cite] state.vc4hdmi { control.1 { iface PCM name ELD value '100007006712000100000000000000004c2d9d02 for non working and value '100007006712000100000000000000004c2d9b03 for working [/cite] - when alsamixer is opened, then the default looks like working, and the job on old tv; but not do nothing older tv. - when alsamixer -c0 is opened, then the vc4-hdmi reports no control for selected device for *both* tvs (which is same as f6 and selecting vc4-hdmi) Does anybody have a clue what to try?

Starting network services from emergency mode command prompt ?
by linux guy 31 Oct '18

31 Oct '18

Hi all. I accidentally interrupted a dnf update and messed up the boot process on my server. I got the machine booting to an emergency mode command prompt via grub2 commands. (Painful !) I need to run dnf with a network connection to finish fixing things. I tried grub2-mkconfig, but it needs more than that. How does one get networking running in Fedora 28 x86_64 from the emergency mode command prompt ? Thanks

I need granny games!
by ToddAndMargo 31 Oct '18

31 Oct '18

Hi All, I have a customer (actually she is a great grand mother) who wants me "specifically" to put her together a cheap machine to only play Freecell. No internet, no printing, no sound. So Xfce, Fedora, and K Patience to the rescue. Now I know that K Patience contains Freecell, but I was wondering if there are some other granny games I could put on it. You know games like Solitaire that would make teenagers run screaming for their lives! Those "Granny" games. Many thanks, -T
