SDDM screen locking is VERY hit or miss
by c. marlow
Fedora 36 KDE
I noticed that SDDM is very hit or miss when locking the screen.
Sometimes I can move my mouse and I am asked to enter a password. And
then there are times I can move my mouse and my desktop and task bar
appears without entering a password.
I have my settings set as LOCK SCREEN after 27 min
allow unlocking without password 1 sec
Power management set to turn off screen after 28 min
But I just noticed that power management was defaulted back to 10
min... It's like the settings aren't sticking.. But thats for another
thread.
Any ideas on why screen locking is very hit or miss?

grub encrypted partitions
by Patrick Dupre
Hello,
I reinstalled my distribution.
I made a custom installation
but I was not unable to choose my encrypted partition for the boot.
Now, after that I choose the OS for the boot, the
boot procedure does not offer me the option of entering my
paraphrase.
How can I fix this issue ?
Thank

custom '.local' folder - ?
by lejeczek
Hi guys
would anybody know if user's '.local' folder, its path &
name are configurable in some way?
Perhaps by a var or/and os-wide configs?
many thanks, L.

tracker-miner-fs-3.service on fire - ?
by lejeczek
Hi guys.
Do you see in your systems 'tracker-miner-fs-3' high CPU use
and 'journalctl' shows constant repetition of:
...
tracker-miner-fs-3.service: Main process exited,
code=exited, status=1/FAILURE
tracker-miner-fs-3.service: Failed with result 'exit-code'.
Failed to start tracker-miner-fs-3.service - Tracker file
system data miner.
tracker-miner-fs-3.service: Consumed 3.627s CPU time.
tracker-miner-fs-3.service: Scheduled restart job, restart
counter is at 56.
Stopped tracker-miner-fs-3.service - Tracker file system
data miner.
tracker-miner-fs-3.service: Consumed 3.627s CPU time.
Starting tracker-miner-fs-3.service - Tracker file system
data miner...
...
I wonder if this could be recent updates and if making it a
BZ also is valid.
thanks, L.

Cannot connect to 2g wireless network
by c. marlow
Hi Ya'll,
I just got a Lenovo ThinkPad 3rd gen
I installed Fedora 36 KDE on it
And I cannot get it to connect to the 2G connection. It only will allow me to
connect to the 5g connection.
I have changed the name of the access point, changed the password several
times
only letters and numbers, letters numbers and basic symbols, no symbols...
Nothing...
I even downloaded Fedora 36 XFCE and ran the Live ISO...... Same thing...
Here is a list of things that i've tried already:

I am stumped.... I am hoping maybe someone will be able to figure this out!

distorted audio from KVM guest
by Eyal Lebedinsky
Running f36 (up-to-date, host and guest) and following a recently update audio started to be very distorted.
Playing anything on the host is fine, but on the guest it is very bad.
This is the case with system sounds and with vlc, so it looks systemic.
Anyone else sees (hears) this?

encription
by Patrick Dupre
Hello,
I installed fedora 36 on a disk with /home encrypted
At the installation, I was unable to say that I want /home as
an encrypted partition.
Thus, I did a usual install without specifying the /home partition.
Now, how can I mount my "old" encripted /home instead of the "new" /home ?
Thank

F36: removing systemd-resolved breaks chrony
by Sam Varshavchik
It seems that uninstalling systemd-resolved and repointing /etc/resolv.conf
ends up breaking chrony:
type=AVC msg=audit(1653741361.179:318): avc: denied { getattr } for
pid=856 comm="chronyd" path="/run/NetworkManager/no-stub-resolv.conf"

tcontext=system_u:object_r:NetworkManager_var_run_t:s0 tclass=file
permissive=0
This is spamming me every minute, now.
