How to Make Fedora 33 portable usb
by Anil Felipe Duggirala 20 Jan '21

20 Jan '21

Hello. Ive tried searching for a clear answer to this without avail. How would I go about creating a usb bootable (portable) installation of Fedora? I am aware of the Live Fedora 33 Workstation images. But, for example, when boothing from that, your settings (program setting) are not saved. How can I have a Fedora usb that I can use on different pcs? Where I have additional software installed? And settings? And maybe even a permanent /home storage space? Thank you.

[F31] Cannot boot from time to time due to systemd-cryptsetup
by Frédéric 19 Jan '21

19 Jan '21

Hi, From time to time, the system stops in the boot process. Today, I had to boot 4 times to get it work. The first 3 times, it failed the same way: - GRUB shows, I choose the first kernel as usual (5.8.18) - the boot process stops before asking for the password of the encrypted luks partition - Ctrl+Alt+Del reboots the system When I look at the logs before SIGINT is sent, it always stops at the same step, just after this message: kernel: kauditd_printk_skb: 47 callbacks suppressed and apparently, it is just before this which I see when I can boot: systemd-cryptsetup[734]: Set cipher aes, mode xts-plain64, key size 512 bits for device /dev/disk/by-uuid/4cdb8127-6061-4099-b883-9bbc31670b2f. systemd[1]: Found device /dev/mapper/luks-4cdb8127-6061-4099-b883-9bbc31670b2f. systemd[1]: Starting File System Check on /dev/mapper/luks-4cdb8127-6061-4099-b883-9bbc31670b2f... so it seems related to the encrypted partition. My M.2 disk is partitionned like that: /dev/nvme0n1p1: /boot (ext4) /dev/nvme0n1p2: /boot/efi (fat16) /dev/nvme0n1p3: swap /dev/nvme0n1p4: fedora (lvm2 pv) the fedora volume group has the following partitions: /dev/fedora/home /home (luks2) /dev/fedora/root: / (ext4) /def/fedora/softs: /softs (ext4) The log says that /boot, /boot/efi and /softs are mounted so it seems that the hard drive is working correctly. What could happen with the luks partition so that it stops the boot process? Best regads, F

[F32] Switch user no working (never worked)
by Frédéric 19 Jan '21

19 Jan '21

Hi everybody, I'm a long time user of Fedora + KDE/Plasma desktop but this has never worked: sometimes, I want to switch user from a Plasma session, i.e. I want to open a new Plasma session while the first one still runs in the background. When I do that, I just get a black screen. On this laptop, I'm running Fedroa 32 with Plasma and kdm. I also have the proprietary Nvidia driver from rpmfusion*. Has anyone ever been able to switch user correctly with Fedora? with Plasma+kdm? Is it due to kdm, should I use another one? Thanks in advance, F * removing the proprietary driver is not an option because my children use the laptop to run Minecraft and it is much smoother with the proprietary driver and they complain already that they do not have Windows...

how to monitor data usage by app
by Anil Felipe Duggirala 18 Jan '21

18 Jan '21

hello, I am trying to save my phone data when I use it connecting my Fedora 33 workstation laptop to it. Today for example, 100MB of data were used in the first few minutes after I connected my laptop to this connection. The Gnome Wifi settings have a allowed me to set this connection as a Metered Connection, which means updates should not be running when I am connected to it. I would like to know, how can a monitor which program or process is consuming my data? By day? or also in real time view process network consumption? thank you,

surprise while upgrading
by François Patte 17 Jan '21

17 Jan '21

Bonjour, I wanted to upgrade a machine today and run dnf upgrade... Amongst the packages, I could see a full install of texlive which is not installed.... So, I asked: rpm -q --whatrequires texlive answer: aucun paquet ne requiert texlive (no package requires texlive).... I thought that, maybe, it was not a full install of texlive and asked, randomly choosing a package that this upgrade wanted to install: rpm -q --whatrequires texlive-polyglossia answer: aucun paquet ne requiert texlive (no package requires texlive).... What's wrong? Thank you. -- François Patte UFR de mathématiques et informatique Laboratoire CNRS MAP5, UMR 8145 Université Paris Descartes 45, rue des Saints Pères F-75270 Paris Cedex 06 Tél. +33 (0)6 7892 5822 http://www.math-info.univ-paris5.fr/~patte FSF https://www.fsf.org/blogs/community/presenting-shoetool-happy-holidays-from…

So as far as I can remember I haven't done anything custom here but... Problem 1: package cockpit-bridge-235-1.fc33.x86_64 conflicts with cockpit-dashboard < 233 provided by cockpit-dashboard-229-1.fc33.noarch - cannot install the best update candidate for package cockpit-dashboard-229-1.fc33.noarch - cannot install the best update candidate for package cockpit-bridge-229-1.fc33.x86_64 Problem 2: problem with installed package cockpit-dashboard-229-1.fc33.noarch - package cockpit-bridge-235-1.fc33.x86_64 conflicts with cockpit-dashboard < 233 provided by cockpit-dashboard-229-1.fc33.noarch - package cockpit-system-235-1.fc33.noarch requires cockpit-bridge >= 235-1.fc33, but none of the providers can be installed - cannot install the best update candidate for package cockpit-system-229-1.fc33.noarch Is it me or a packaging problem? Thanks, Richard

errors during update.
by Frank McCormick 15 Jan '21

15 Jan '21

Saw a couple of errors in the middle of an update today on Fedora 33. Couldn't figure out how to copy/paste so I have a small screenshot. The system **seems** to work fine after this. Is it something I should be concerned about? Thanks
