Dialog box pops up now when double clicking on desktop icons in
LXDE, asking for confirmation. Want to stop this behavior.
by stan
Hi,
The subject pretty much says it. In the last week or so, the behavior
of the icons on the desktop has changed to require confirmation before
opening the application in LXDE. There is one icon, the one for
spectacle, the screen capture application, that this does not happen
for. So there must be a way to stop it from happening. Would this be
an issue in X (LXDE still runs only on X as far as I am aware), LXDE, or
maybe selinux or some other security app? There have been hundreds of
updates in that time frame, so unless I absolutely have to, I'd rather
not go back looking through them for a likely culprit.
Thanks for any help.

Dfault video player -
by Bob Goodwin
/I have a bunch of iPhone videos to view.
I have spent the last hour googling without success:
How to make the default video player "VLC" and remove the "Videos" item
offered whenever I go to view one. I haven't even been able to determine
what application "Videos" starts, but it never does anything but put a
spinner on the screen. I don't want to fix it, I just want it to go away
and be replaced with VLC which always works.
Any help appreciated,
Bob.

WTF is this nonsense from bash -x ?
by Tom Horsley
I'll often run a little file full of shell commands and want to
see the command followed by the output so I'll run it
like so:
bash -x ./files.txt > symbols.txt
Before fedora 28, that would result in symbols.txt showing
the commands in files.txt with a '+' in front of them
followed by the output from the command.
In fedora 28, I'm now getting 93 lines of absolute gibberish
showing up before the first command which looks like this
nonsense:
+ unset _mlre _mlIFS _mlshdbg
+ '[' 0 = 1 ']'
+ export MODULES_RUN_QUARANTINE=LD_LIBRARY_PATH
+ MODULES_RUN_QUARANTINE=LD_LIBRARY_PATH
...
+ PATH=/usr/share/Modules/bin:.:/userland/tom/scripts:/userland/tom/profile/progs/bin/amd64-lx:/userland/tom/profile/progs/bin/i86-lx:/bin:/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/local
+ export PATH
++ manpath
+ manpath=/usr/share/man:/usr/local/man:/usr/local/share/man:/usr/man
+ [[ ! :/usr/share/man:/usr/local/man:/usr/local/share/man:/usr/man: =~ :/usr/share/man: ]]
+ '[' -n '' ']'
What the heck is this nonsense?

dnf system-upgrade reboot stalled after reboot (KDE F26->F27)
by Frédéric
I followed the instruction from
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/DNF_system_upgrade
to upgrade a system from F26 to F27. Everything seemed to work
correctly (all packages installed and checked), then the system
rebooted on F27. I saw the fedora icon now surrounded by a white
square.
But it is now stalled with only this on the screen:
[ 6.196960] tpm tpm0: tpm_try_transmit: tpm_send: error -62.
Apparently, I can access the system with ssh. Looking at the journal,
I see a lot of red (many more such lines in the log):

Package dependency paradox with package 'tuned'
by Eino Virtanen
I am using CentOS with a PREEMPT Kernel. I ran an update and
encountered the following error:
###
--> Running transaction check
---> Package device-mapper-multipath-libs.x86_64 0:0.4.9-119.el7 will
be installed
--> Processing Dependency: librados.so.2()(64bit) for package:

Available: tuned-2.8.0-5.el7.noarch (rt)

###
My interpretation is that the 'tuned-profiles-realtime' requires
'tuned' version '2.8.0', but version '2.9.0-1.el7' is currently
installed? Should I force installation of 'tuned' version '2.8.0', or
what would be a sensible solution to this problem?
Thank you in advance,

SeaHorse does not show GPG keys.
by Dirk Gottschalk
Hi.
I'm running Fedora 28 on my Notebook. After installing seahorse an it's
Nautilus plug-in, I registered that my gpg2 keyring is not shown so I
can not manage it. The nautilus plug-in sees them and I can select a
key for signing and encrypting files.
I did not change anything in my home before or after upgrading to F28
from F27.
Does somebody ha a clue?
Thanks,
Dirk
PS: Resend due to thrown error.

Thanks this also solves the same problem on my machine (DELL-Optiplex 755 with
onboard Intel graphics media Accelerator 3100 (according to specs)).

I thought I was wrong once, but I was mistaken.
