F28/Xfce - mirror display broken after update
by Robert Moskowitz 25 Dec '18

25 Dec '18

I lost mirror display after this last update and reboot. In the display panel, the mirror display option is greyed out. I cannot figure out what magic to enable it. I have set the resolution of the laptop to the same as the monitor; this has helped in the past. The login panel is properly mirrored, but when I log into my account it switches to the extended mode where I can drag windows from the laptop screen onto the external monitor. I have tried all sorts of fiddling with advanced options, but nothing seems to enable the mirror mode. :( Very important here.... thanks in advanced.

F28 - dnf proble with hplip
by Robert Moskowitz 25 Dec '18

25 Dec '18

Been a bit over a week since my last update. Tried to do one a couple minutes ago and got: Problem 1: cannot install the best update candidate for package hplip-3.18.6-10.fc28.x86_64 - nothing provides libnetsnmp.so.35()(64bit) needed by hplip-3.18.6-11.fc28.x86_64 Problem 2: cannot install the best update candidate for package hplip-libs-3.18.6-10.fc28.x86_64 - nothing provides libnetsnmp.so.35()(64bit) needed by hplip-libs-3.18.6-11.fc28.x86_64 Problem 3: cannot install the best update candidate for package libsane-hpaio-3.18.6-10.fc28.x86_64 - nothing provides libnetsnmp.so.35()(64bit) needed by libsane-hpaio-3.18.6-11.fc28.x86_64 Problem 4: package hplip-gui-3.18.6-11.fc28.x86_64 requires libsane-hpaio(x86-64) = 3.18.6-11.fc28, but none of the providers can be installed - cannot install the best update candidate for package hplip-gui-3.18.6-10.fc28.x86_64 - nothing provides libnetsnmp.so.35()(64bit) needed by libsane-hpaio-3.18.6-11.fc28.x86_64 Problem 5: package hplip-libs-3.18.6-10.fc28.x86_64 requires hplip-common(x86-64) = 3.18.6-10.fc28, but none of the providers can be installed - cannot install both hplip-common-3.18.6-11.fc28.x86_64 and hplip-common-3.18.6-10.fc28.x86_64 - problem with installed package hplip-libs-3.18.6-10.fc28.x86_64 - cannot install the best update candidate for package hplip-common-3.18.6-10.fc28.x86_64 - nothing provides libnetsnmp.so.35()(64bit) needed by hplip-libs-3.18.6-11.fc28.x86_64 Is this recent or an 'old problem' that I missed? Not going to do an update with a new kernel, requiring a reboot when there is a new hplip in the works. thanks

Dovecot
by Mike Chambers 24 Dec '18

24 Dec '18

Had to reinstall my server using Fedora 29, and configuring local mail, via dovecot, I forget where to set the mail_location path to? ~/Maildir doesn't give off errors, but I seem to currently not get any mail. I thought /var/mail/ was the main root mail dir for users but I can't get dovecot not to error pointing to it, such as /var/mail/%u or whatever. Any ideas if that makese any sense? LOL

Using rsync to get the Fedora repositories
by CLOSE Dave 23 Dec '18

23 Dec '18

I have a script that uses rsync to pull the Fedora repositories nightly. If I run it manually, it works flawlessly. But if it runs via cron, I get an error on all the Fedora 28 repositories. I do not get the error on Fedora 27 or RPMFusion 27 or 28 repositories. The script sets timeout values to 3600 seconds but fails in only a few seconds. (I haven't started to sync F29 repos yet.) The error message is, rsync: safe_read failed to read 1 bytes [Receiver]: Connection reset by peer (104) rsync error: error in rsync protocol data stream (code 12) at io.c(276) [Receiver=3.1.3] The commands in the script are, # cat mirror #!/bin/sh /root/bin/mirror-fedora-27 /root/bin/mirror-fedora-28 /root/bin/mirror-rpmfusion-27 /root/bin/mirror-rpmfusion-28 And the F28 subordinate script is, # cat mirror-fedora-28 #!/bin/sh opt="-aHv --timeout=3600 --contimeout=3600 --exclude=repoview/**" opt+=" --usermap=:apache --groupmap=:apache --exclude=0ad-*" opt+=" --exclude=/*/armhfp/** --exclude=debug/**" opt+=" --exclude=repoview/** --exclude=*.html" opt+=" --exclude=/*/SRPMS/** --delete-excluded" src="rsync://mirrors.kernel.org/fedora" dst="/var/www/html/pub/fedora/linux" r="releases"; u="updates"; s="Server"; e="Everything"; w="Workstation" doit () { mkdir -p $dst/$3 rsync $opt $src/$2 $dst/$3 } doit "$e x86_64" $r/28/$e/x86_64/os/ $r/28/$e/x86_64/os doit "$s x86_64" $r/28/$s/x86_64/os/ $r/28/$s/x86_64/os doit "$w x86_64" $r/28/$w/x86_64/os/ $r/28/$w/x86_64/os doit "$u x86_64" $u/28/$e/x86_64/ $u/28/$e/x86_64/os Other scripts are similar with the obvious substitutions. -- Dave Close "Learn from the mistakes of others.

Latest kernels
by jarmo 23 Dec '18

23 Dec '18

Fedora 29 XFCE4 wm, fresh install Latest 4.19.9 and 4.19.10 kernels, after update booted into blank screen, I thought, that it is, because of darkest time here, 5h20min daylight :) :). But found somewhere from net solution. I have laptop HP 15-bw021na, with AMD 4 core processor, AMDGPU. Had to add into linux cmdline AMDGPU.DC=0, after that booted OK. Now, something with these "new" kernels is going wrong? because with 4.19.5 kernel does not need amdgpu.dc=0 command. So, if someone counter same problem, this might help. Happy Holidays Jarmo
