getting rid of every trace of docker from fedora 29 for
re-install?
by Robert P. J. Day
as part of an intro tutorial i'm writing, i want to provide a recipe
for installing docker-ce on fedora 29 from absolute scratch, and part
of that will involve how to first get rid of every trace of any old
docker- or container-related stuff.
if one has no interest in preserving old containers, i'm proposing
running (as sudo, naturally):
$ dnf remove "*docker*"
$ rm -rf /var/lib/{containerd,docker,docker-engine}
i'm fairly sure that's overkill, but the point is to simulate truly
starting from scratch. the above *seems* to work, is there any reason
it would cause problems before i kick in with installing the proper
yum repo file and running:
$ dnf install docker-ce
thoughts?

Fedora Project Slack Workspace
by Thomas S. Clayborne
Hi all, I recently joined the QA group, and I wanted to put a feeler out for setting up a Fedora slack workspace.
There's currently a Slack group for the FEDORA repository management tool, more on that here, https://duraspace.org/fedora/ which I am also a member of, and almost every day they have quite a few people joining looking for help with *this* Fedora project by mistake. I think if we set up something for this project, it would both make things easier on that group and help those in need on Slack.
I've set up an initial workspace at fedoraprojectgroup.slack.com
(fedora-project.slack.com was taken by the project mentioned above) and am happy to send out invites to anyone who emails me at
tsclayborne(a)fedoraproject.org
Looking forward to hearing everyone's thoughts on this

After an update, VM's no longer have Internet access
by Patrick O'Callaghan
I updated my system this morning. Updated packages included a new
kernel and some SElinux stuff among other things (the complete list is
attached). I now find that neither of my QEMU/KVM guests (one Fedora,
one Windows 10) have Internet access, though they do have access to my
host. They were both working perfectly before the update. Nothing else
in my system has changed (in particular, I haven't touched the Firewall
rules and the last updates to NetworkManager or Qemu were several days
ago).
I rebooted to the previous kernel - no difference.
I set SElinux to permissive and rebooted the Fedora guest - no
difference.
Before trying to downgrade the entire update, is there anything else I
can do?

[F29] Ext4 file system inconsistencies
by Marco Guazzone
Hello,
I'm running an up-to-date Fedora 29 x86_64 (kernel 4.19.13-300.fc29.x86_64).
My ext4 file system got inconsistent twice in a week: the first time, the
'/home' partition; the last time, both '/root' and '/home' partitions.
I had to use a live distro to fix it with fsck.
I ran several disk test utilities to check for HW errors, including:
* HDDScan 4.0 (http://hddscan.com/): VERIFY, READ and BUTTERFLY tests
* Diagnostics tests from Dell's BIOS
* SMART self-test
All these tests succeded: no problem detected.
If I exclude HW errors, the only other option is a SW error (in the
kernel?).
Any idea?
Thank you for your help.

Re: Fedora 29 display -

That was it, perfect, I start Thunar, click on "^" to get to "/" and
then pressing "F9" brings up the display I need, NETWORK is at the
bottom of the list and from there I can get to the NAS.
Thank you for the help,

Fedora 29 display -
by Bob Goodwin
When I start Thunar I have a column at the left that displays DEVICES,
PLACES, and NETWORKS with a few sub-folders under each. This box was a
new install.
On a second Fedora 29 computer this left hand column is missing and I
have had no success finding the difference between the two. This was an
upgrade from Fedora 27 ...
Both computers are updated daily and run XFCE.
I would like to have it in both. What do I have wrong?
