Hi guys. Despite having "Show Thumbnails => All files" in my Nautilus, I do not get thumbnails on my Android phone when connected via USB. That should work, in F34, right? many thanks, L.

How do I do a group reinstall of Xfce?
by ToddAndMargo 10 Apr '23

10 Apr '23

Hi All, I have both MATE and Xfce installed. If I boot into MATE, such that Xfce is not running, or not start a GUI at all, how do I do a group reinstall of Xfce? Many thanks, -T -- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Computers are like air conditioners. They malfunction when you open windows ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

F37 broke netupstools
by Sam Varshavchik 19 Feb '23

19 Feb '23

After updating F37 nut is unhappy, spewing this every couple of seconds: Nov 21 06:48:28 monster.email-scan.com nut-server[1735]: Can't connect to UPS [nutdev1] (usbhid-ups-nutdev1): No such file or directory Interestingly enough, the XFCE desktop's panel has a widget that shows the UPS and its charged status. Today's project is to figure out what's broken, does anyone happen to know what's up with this, and save me some time?

monitor/display problem.
by home user 26 Dec '22

26 Dec '22

(f36) Good afternoon, A short while ago, I did my weekly patches (dnf upgrade), and then re-booted. Just before that, the workstation display (dual monitor) was fine. After the reboot, only one display works. If I switch the monitor cables, I still get a one-monitor display, but on the other monitor. This leads me to think that the problem is not with the monitors. The display in the one monitor looks a little fuzzy and stretched out horizontally. I also notice at the end of the boot log the following lines: ----- M [K[ [0;31m*[0;1;31m*[0m] (2 of 3) Job plymouth-quit-wait.ser…tart running (1min 17s / no limit) M [K[ [0;31m*[0;1;31m*[0m[0;31m*[0m] (2 of 3) Job plymouth-quit-wait.ser…tart running (1min 17s / no limit) M [K[ [0;31m*[0;1;31m*[0m[0;31m* [0m] (3 of 3) Job akmods.service/start running (1min 18s / no limit) M [K[ [0;31m*[0;1;31m*[0m[0;31m* [0m] (3 of 3) Job akmods.service/start running (1min 18s / no limit) M [K[[0;32m OK [0m] Finished [0;1;39makmods.service[0…all new kmods from akmod packages.

What is the problem? More important, how do I fix it? thanks, Bill.

Lost NFS Export
by Jonathan Ryshpan 24 Dec '22

24 Dec '22

The machine OaklandWeather is set up to export some directories to the machine amito. But when OaklandWeather is restarted the export is lost. Running "# exportfs -a" restores the export and the desired files can be seen by amito.

F37 XFCE bell – where to turn it off
by Sam Varshavchik 20 Dec '22

20 Dec '22

After updating to F37, the new XFCE desktop appears to have implemented the screen beep/bell function. The default beep/bell audio is quite annoying, does anyone know where the setting for that is, I can't find it. I tried doing xset b off But it's still barking at me.

Youtube Videos Don't Play in Fedora
by Stephen Morris 12 Dec '22

12 Dec '22

Hi, I have booked marked a support/tips page from the suppliers of the Asus motherboard and the pages the main page links to contains Youtube videos. The videos wouldn't play in Firefox Nightly, nor would they display in Google Chrome, they just showed a message saying "If the video doesn't start to play restart your device", and a reboot of Fedora didn't change anything. I've just upgraded to F37 via dnf and loaded the main page into Firefox Nightly and when I link to a page containing a video, the video now displays a blue twistie (play button) and continually spins on that button without playing anything, although it does seem to a cache some data. In both F36 and F37 when I load the main bookmarked page I have to do a reload before it will display anything. When I load the page into Google Chrome in F37, like in Firefox the page doesn't display the page body and unlike in Firefox it doesn't matter how many times I reload the page it doesn't display the page body. How do I determine what the issues are given that the same pages loaded into Firefox Nightly and Google Chrome in Windows display without any issues. regards, Steve

KVM not avaible even though CPU and MB support is present
by Ranbir 03 Dec '22

03 Dec '22

I'm trying to create a VM on my Fedora 36 desktop with virt-manager and I'm seeing this error: "Warning: KVM is not available. This may mean the KVM package is not installed, or the KVM kernel modules are not loaded. Your virtual machines may perform poorly." Ok, so I figured I must have left VT-d disabled in the BIOS. I rebooted, checked the setting and found it enabled. Strange. I booted back into Fedora and looked for the "vmx" flag for my i9-10900X and sure enough found it present. I have the a lot of qemu related packages installed. I also have the necessary kvm RPMS installed: libvirt-daemon-kvm-8.1.0-2.fc36.x86_64 qemu-kvm-6.2.0-16.fc36.x86_64 qemu-kvm-core-6.2.0-16.fc36.x86_64 When I try to manually insert the kvm_intel module, I get this error: modprobe: ERROR: could not insert 'kvm_intel': Operation not supported I've been using KVM for a very long time and recently successfully migrated to modular libvirt on my kvm host. I would like to think that I know a little bit about getting KVM running. :/ I'm currently running kernel version 6.0.9-200. Is it broken? Is anyone else having problems with kvm on Intel CPUS in Fedora 36? Is there something I'm doing incorrectly? Any help would be appreciated. -- Ranbir
