Hi!
Something I use almost daily and.. nothing happens now. Is there a
replacement shortcut or a way to enable it back?
Thank you.

F37 broke netupstools
by Sam Varshavchik
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?

kvm vs firefox issue?
by Eyal Lebedinsky
I am running up-to-date f36.
Recently I had kvm "virsh restore" take a long time. Normally it takes less than 10s but now it took 10-15m!.
Then it took 30m (qemu-system-x86_64 running 100% CPU all the time) and I started looking around.
I noticed that khugepaged is also running 100% CPU. Thinking that there may be a memory issue, on a whim, I closed firefox. KVM came up immediately.
The machine has enough memory (32GB) and kvm was allocated 8GB.
Right now I again resumed the vm, and after 2m I closed firefox and again kvm responded instantly.
This started only recently (kernel 6.0.18 or 6.1, or another update?)
Is there a known problem.

power profiles
by Frederic Muller
Hi!
It seems i can only stay in Power Saver mode, balanced seems to be
clickable but quickly reverts to Power Saver and Performance is not even
clickable.
Any idea if there is any way to do that 'manually' as my laptop is
really slow now.
Thank you.

Vivaldi web browser - anybody?
by lejeczek
Hi guys.
Does anybody use Vivaldi?
I've had for a few years but have used it only for specific
subset of wwws. I've only recently noticed I do not get
sound during video playback, Youtube and others.
Can somebody confirm, using their yum/rpm packaged installation?
many thanks, L.

Fedora 37: kernel: general protection fault, probably for
non-canonical address PREEMPT SMP PT
by Dario Lesca
On a Fedora 37 up to date (kernel 6.0.10-300.fc37.x86_64), sometime I
get this error[1]
This problem occur often when I use nfs server from another PC, and if
I try to restart nfs via systemctl the command it remains stuck and I
must power off the PC
Other times PC freezes and I must power off and restart it.
Could it be a hardware problem (RAM? or CPU?) or I must fill a kernel
or nfs bug?
Many thanks for your help.
Dario

vim question - how to stop auto comments
by Sbob
Hi all;
Anyone know how to disable the vim feature where it auto comments all
lines after a comment, meaning if I add a comment line and then hit
enter for a new line I do not want the new line to automatically hace a
comment (#) char... it's driving me nuts!
Thanks in advance

Nvidia in F37
by GianPiero Puccioni
Hi,
I just update from F35 to F37 and everything is fine except I noticed that
instead of the Nvidia from RPMFusion it is using nouveau.
In fact the nvidia module is missing and wasn't built by akmod.
I think the problem is that it started with kernel 6.1.7 which is very recent
but it seems it's missing the kernel-headers -the most recent in the
repositories is 6.1.5- and akmod needs that.
There is something strange going on or I just should wait for the headers to
appear? Or maybe install 6.1.5 and use that?

Massive WireGuard performance regression on Fedora 37 vs Ubuntu 18.04
by James Wynn
I noticed a massive performance regression for WireGuard in Ubuntu 20.04 & 22.04, but it also affects Fedora. I don't know since which version.
Should I report this as a bug or did I mess something up?
I have fully reproducible steps to demonstrate this issue on a vanilla DigitalOcean droplet, minimal WireGuard configuration and no firewall rules. I've also seen this issue on other hosting providers.
Testing with `iperf3 -c XXX -P 5`:
- Unencrypted traffic on DigitalOcean's VPC = ~2Gbps
- WireGuard Ubuntu 18.04 = ~1.3Gbps
- WireGuard Fedora 37 = ~400Mbps
htop reported only 20-30% load on the vCPU core so it isn't CPU-bound. After doing these tests, I did them all again on a different day to rule out temporary network congestion.
Steps to reproduce below. Repeat with each OS version.
0. Create a DigitalOcean account.
1. Create two $6 droplets (eg, LON1 region) with Regular CPU & 1GB RAM each, called test01 & test02.
2. `dnf update -y && reboot`
3. `dnf install -y wireguard-tools iperf3`
4. On test01, create `/etc/wireguard/test.conf` with these contents. Replace `YYY` with the IP address of the eth1 interface (VPC) on test02.
--------------------
[Interface]
PrivateKey = wOEa8/RS2v065wgYGQn5k7FqOXuZJ9aC/6NDW569c3g=
Address = 192.168.200.10/24
ListenPort = 51820
SaveConfig = false
[Peer]
PublicKey = wdXOzBptLD/QMZjhG475GErrz95Vpj4S7JPEwzcDMV8=
PresharedKey = j5Oeyhu/qDag2LunpVlFqKycp/9CH+Izjza5aq2cYss=
Endpoint = YYY:51820
AllowedIPs = 192.168.200.20/32
--------------------
5. On test02, create `/etc/wireguard/test.conf` with these contents. Replace `XXX` with the IP address of the eth1 interface (VPC) on test01.
--------------------
[Interface]
PrivateKey = kCJ/4rVDTy86HxP9N5wUmgMF1Esqjc051jQPGhrQIGw=
Address = 192.168.200.20/24
ListenPort = 51820
SaveConfig = false
[Peer]
PublicKey = s/GtXkHOtPsqcNDy0BSRoMuxXYb4hK18dsQdkZk20yQ=
PresharedKey = j5Oeyhu/qDag2LunpVlFqKycp/9CH+Izjza5aq2cYss=
Endpoint = XXX:51820
AllowedIPs = 192.168.200.10/32
--------------------
6. On both droplets, run `systemctl start wg-quick@test`
7. On test01, run `iperf3 -s -B XXX`.
8. On test02, run `iperf3 -c XXX -P 5 -t 30` and observe ~2Gbps.
9. On test01, run `iperf3 -s -B 192.168.200.10`
10. On test02, run `iperf3 -c 192.168.200.10 -P 5 -t 30` and observe ~400Mbps.
In steps 7 and 8, replace XXX with the IP address of the eth1 interface on test01.
