New kernel
by jarmo
Somethin went't wrong. Got updates of new kernel,
kernel-5.13.4-200.fc34.x86_64.
Now my HPlaptop won't start. I can write to loginwindow
asked passwd. After that everything hangs.
with kernel 5.12.15-300.fc34.x86_64 works. I have system in legacy
mode, no LVM no UEFI.
Only patitions there are /swap and / FS is EXT4...
An my wife's Toshiba Satellite, After I disabled /dev/zram0 from
system, because from boot.log I could see, that It tried to create
SWAP to /dev/zram0. That Toshiba has also partitions /swap and /
EXT4 no LVM no UEFI.
After disbling, it boots, but takes terrible time, "fedora sircle"
stops and takes long time to start XFCE4 VM.
Anybody had same?

SD card Timestamp
by Clifford Snow
Recently I've noticed that the file timestamp is 7 hours earlier than when
the file was created. This is happening on both an SD card I use in a
camera as well as my dashcam. Both the camera and the dashcam have been set
for the correct date and time. Neither gives me the option for entering the
timezone. It's not a big issue, but it's a hassle when looking for an image
or video taken around a particular time.
Looking at the Exif data on the dashcam video, it has recorded the correct
time to the exif data. But pulling up the sd card, the video time is 7
hours earlier.
Anyone have suggestions on how to fix this?
Thanks in advance,
Clifford

Need help customising Thunar.
by Erik P. Olsen
Googling info on customising Thunar I find that you should click Edit in the menu which
should be very easy. However, my problem is that there is no menu when I launch Thunar,
so I guess the question is how do I get a menu in the Thunar window?

MongoDB Community edition
by Scott van Looy
Hi,
Does anyone have any hints for installing MongoDB on Fedora 34? I updated from F33 and whilst it’s still working/running, I can’t update it.
Am I missing a compat lib or something?
I’m using the repo at https://repo.mongodb.org/yum/redhat/8Server/mongodb-org/4.4/x86_64/ <https://repo.mongodb.org/yum/redhat/8Server/mongodb-org/4.4/x86_64/> as recommended in their docs

Scheduling sequential systemd tasks
by John W. Himpel
I would like to run a task (TASKA) that updates some files at a specified time each day. I already can do that
successfully using systemd timers and services.
Upon completion of TASKA, I want to run TASKB with is an rsync command to propagate any file changes made in TASK A to
other hosts. TASKA may run quickly or slowly, so I don't want to use a timer for TASKB, rather I want TASKB to execute
upon the completion of TASKA.
I can't seem to find the proper set of systemd options to set in the service file for TASKB to cause it to run upon
completion of TASKA.
Suggestions are welcome.

RSS usage higher on newer fedora releases higher for user-applications
compared to 3.11.10-301.fc20.x86_64 release, what might be the reason?
by Anand Babu
So, We were trying to move to Fedora 33 from Centos7 for our jvm and then we found the memory consumption to be higher than Centos7.
we did the following:
Step :1 Narrow the problem with a simple c-code
#include<unistd.h>
int main()
{
pause();
return 0;
}
Running this c-program on Fedora 33 yields 660 KB . While on centos7, it only takes 348 KB,
Step 2:
Narrow down the kernel versions .
So, we tried testing different fedora VMs that we had and one of the VMs was running fedora 20. We were able to boot
1. kernel-3.11.10-301.fc20.x86_64
2. kernel-3.17.4-200.fc20.x86_64
With kernel-3.11, pmap tells the RSS was only 388KB . Screenshot of pmap here: (https://ibb.co/D5zTXvs)
while on kernel-3.17 its 920KB (https://ibb.co/vLByKkD) .
From the pmap mappings, we see both the binaries are using the same glibc and ld.so etc. So, this seems like nothing has changed on the user-land while the RSS measurement has more than doubled.
Could somehow have an idea on what else could explain the reason for his memory increase? This seems like something has changed from the kernel side in terms of how RSS was measured or the defaults have changed?

-Anand

Fedora on IRC
by Earl Ramirez
God day,
Pardon my ignorance, did Fedora moved from freenode to LibraIRC, I
checked both and sent test messages but haven't received any response.
In the past it was more active.
Did I miss something?

Windows 11 VMs

Since Microsoft is going to require a TPM module for their new system,
are there implications for KVM, VirtualBox and VMware, or has this
already been dealt with?

failed to mount /boot/efi
by Patrick Dupre
Hello,
On a dual boot machine (one fc32, and one fc34).
after I upgraded the fc32 to fc34, I cannot boot on the new fc34.
I get
failed to mount /boot/efi
/boot/efi is shared by both machines
Here is the fstab of the fc34 machine
#
UUID=a5b809ae-61c2-4d67-b0f3-109e99faad39 / ext4 defaults 1 1
UUID=B2EF-0CE4 /boot/efi vfat umask=0077,shortname=winnt 0 2
The /boot/efi seem correct (it is currently mounted by the fc32).
blkid |grep B2EF
/dev/sdb1: UUID="B2EF-0CE4" BLOCK_SIZE="512" TYPE="vfat" PARTLABEL="EFI System Partition" PARTUUID="0fe1d405-6683-456c-a306-140e882e322c"
blkid |grep 9faad39
/dev/sda6: LABEL="fedora_rescue" UUID="a5b809ae-61c2-4d67-b0f3-109e99faad39" BLOCK_SIZE="4096" TYPE="ext4" PARTLABEL="OS" PARTUUID="41b9d134-b477-4ef5-8602-15fdc482a51e"
What should I do ?
It seems that the installer create /boot/efi/EFI/fedora/grub.cfg
with
search --no-floppy --fs-uuid --set=dev a5b809ae-61c2-4d67-b0f3-109e99faad39
set prefix=($dev)/boot/grub2
export $prefix
configfile $prefix/grub.cfg
(I could not boot either)
Then I run (from the fc32)
grub2-mkconfig -o /boot/efi/EFI/fedora/grub.cfg.new
and used this file to boot (by renamed).
But I still have the same issue.
What to do?
It seems that there is a similar issue inb
