Does cups-pdf have its own mailing list?
by ToddAndMargo

I am trying to figure ouyt how to get cups-pdf to default
to Landscape. I have found how to get it to default
to Letter in http://127.0.0.1.:631, but not to default
to landscape.
The cups mailing list tosses my eMail for soem reason.
Does CUPS-PDF have its own mailing list by chance?

FC31 (rawhide) networking problems.
by George R Goffe
Hi,
I frequently run "dnf upgrade" and a few days ago did that. My system booted just fine but the networking did NOT come up as it has. It's like the system now wants to be ipv6. Manual ipv4 configuration works just fine.
I'm testing in a virtual machine with VirtualBox that has also been working just fine... The SAME problem started there to. Again, it's like the system wants to be ipv6. Again, manual ipv4 configuration works just fine. I have thought that I might have goofed something up so I reinstalled the VM and selecting "KDE Plasma Workspaces" and made NO other changes. I still have the problem. I've tried different versions of VirtualBox with NO joy.
Does anyone know what has changed and possibly how to recover?
This whole experience has left me feeling like the village idiot... NOT as much fun as they say it is.
Best regards,
George...

Gnome Terminal copy/paste inhibited by tmux
by Chris Murphy
Hi,
If I'm in Gnome Terminal (no tmux), anytime I mouse over a URL it's
automatically underlined and I can right-click on it to get a
contextual menu with one of the options being to open the link.
Simple. Perfect.
If I run tmux, and in a tmux window/pane whatever, URLs are likewise
automatically underlined, and yet right-click does nothing. On the one
hand, Terminal clearly recognizes this is a link by underlining it.
But on the other hand something tmux related inhibits that contextual
menu.
Any ideas either how to fix this or if you think it's a bug? I'm kinda
inclined to file an RFE type bug upstream because it's pretty
aggravating; but if there's some work around I haven't discovered
that'd be even better.

AskFedora has moved to Discourse!
by Ankur Sinha
Hello everyone,
I am happy to announce that we've moved AskFedora to a new Discourse
instance at https://askbeta.fedoraproject.org. In the coming days,
https://ask.fedoraproject.org will also be updated to point to the new
instance. Our Askbot instance is now in read-only mode, and will be
moved to https://askbot.fedoraproject.org.
Discourse is a great new discussion platform that allows for
conversations, in addition to question-and-answer workflows. Given how
troubleshooting usually does require a few rounds of discussion, we feel
that Discourse's workflow fits it just a bit better. You can, of course,
mark replies as "solutions" and so on to make information easier to
find.
Please note that we've limited access via FAS only---it helps us combat
spam, get useful metrics, and it makes it easier for folks to start
contributing to the community.
Please take a minute to check out the new instance.
- https://askbeta.fedoraproject.org/c/start-here -> we've summarised
useful tips on using Discourse in this category.
- https://askbeta.fedoraproject.org/c/site-feedback -> please post
suggestions, ideas, feedback in this category.

UEFI boot with BIOS password, am I screwed?
by Richard Shaw
I had Windows 10 and Fedora dual booting nicely on a i5 laptop but then the
HD died.
I replaced it with a 1TB SSD (Yay!) and restored windows first per the
recommended method. I then booting Fedora 29 Live and performed an install
and all seemed to go well except it won't boot to fedora!
When I try to get to a boot menu I only see Windows Bootloader and Fedora
(the latter doesn't work). When I boot to Fedora Live I see multiple
entries with efibootmgr including two Fedora entries.
I assume one is for the old system and one for the new.
When I try to go into advanced settings in Win10 to change UEFI settings it
reboots me but there is a password on the BIOS. I can't remember if I set a
password of maybe the kids did somehow but I have tried every password I
have ever used and it won't let me in.
Anyone got any ideas?
Thanks,
Richard

Fedora Virtualization (quemu/kvm) vs Virtualbox
by Dario Lesca
On a i7+16Gb+SSD notebook of a my friend I have install Fedora 29
workstation (all work fine! ... thank to all!)
and into qemu/kvm/libvirtd via virt-manager I have install a win10pro
with all virtio driver (disk, network, ecc..).
After few days my friend say me that the win10 is slow and less
efficient than same installation on another PC with VirtualBox.
He told me "virtualbox is better and faster"
I have heard this statement in other cases in the past and the only
solution (sig!) was to replace qemu with virtualbox.
There is some other solution to optimize qemu/kvm on Fedora to increase
the performance for win10 VM?
Someone has some performance comparison between the two virtualization
system?
Many thanks

tc and clearing qdisc
by Alex
Hi, I'm relatively familiar with traffic shaping using qdisc, but I
don't know where this came from or how to clear it. I don't plan on
using traffic shaping on this host and would like to just to clear it.
It affects my bmon network and bandwidth monitoring.
This is a fedora29 system. Where is this configured?
Any ideas greatly appreciated.

fedora 29 suspend/hibernate not working (SOLVED)
by t_pol
Hi List,
I'd like to share my experience in solving the suspend/hibernate problem
on my new laptop HP PAVILION 15-cs0989nl (I've read some post on the
internet regarding this argument).
The laptop has a "NVIDIA GEFORCE card" as well as an
"Intel Corporation UHD Graphics 620 (rev 07)".
After the new Fedora 29 Installation the system automatically loaded
drivers "nouveau" for the NVIDIA card.
Analyzing the logs after an unsuccessful suspend command I've noticed
a number of messages regarding this driver, so I've decided to
blacklist it putting the following in the file /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf
blacklist nouveau
options nouveau modeset=0
and adding the command:
rd.driver.blacklist=nouveau
to /etc/default/grub in the line starting with "GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="
and then recreating the grub.cfg with
grub2-mkconfig -o /boot/efi/EFI/fedora/grub.cfg
Last thing I did was to disable safe boot in BIOS Setup.
That's it. Right now both suspend and hibernate work like a charm.
Hope this could help someone.
Ciao

fedora 29 trying to mount missing disk
by doug.lindquist＠atlanticbb.net
I replaced a hd lately because I needed more space. It was encrypted with
LUKS. I removed the line from crypttab for the old disk. now when I boot
it tries to mount the old hd too. is there another file that needs changed?

trying to identify file (if any) corresponding to LBA
by Andre Robatino
I'm running 64-bit F29 using the default LVM, but with no separate home partition. Today smartctl reported that "Current_Pending_Sector" and "Offline_Uncorrectable" increased from 0 to 1. Running a self-test failed almost immediately with
Num Test_Description Status Remaining LifeTime(hours) LBA_of_first_error
# 1 Extended offline Completed: read failure 90% 42494 3299402936
I'm trying to follow the instructions in https://www.smartmontools.org/wiki/BadBlockHowto . Fdisk gives
[root@lenovo-pc ~]# fdisk -lu /dev/sda
Disk /dev/sda: 1.8 TiB, 2000398934016 bytes, 3907029168 sectors
Units: sectors of 1 * 512 = 512 bytes
Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 4096 bytes

Disk identifier: 0xc3017146

/dev/sda5 538972160 3907028991 3368056832 1.6T 8e Linux LVM
[root@lenovo-pc ~]#
so the bad LBA is in both sda4 and sda5. Trying tune2fs to find the block size gives
[root@lenovo-pc ~]# tune2fs -l /dev/sda4 | grep Block
tune2fs: Attempt to read block from filesystem resulted in short read while trying to open /dev/sda4
Couldn't find valid filesystem superblock.
[root@lenovo-pc ~]# tune2fs -l /dev/sda5 | grep Block
tune2fs: Bad magic number in super-block while trying to open /dev/sda5
[root@lenovo-pc ~]# tune2fs -l /dev/mapper/fedora-root | grep Block
Block count: 419037184
Block size: 4096
Blocks per group: 32768
[root@lenovo-pc ~]#
so I'm guessing that the block size is 4096. In computing the problem block, I'm not sure whether to use /dev/sda4 or /dev/sda5. Also, if I run debugfs, it doesn't allow me to open either device, so at this point I'm not sure how to identify either the inode or file (if there is one) corresponding to the block. Can anyone help?
