[FC8] ssh and CAC card???
by Todd Denniston 17 Sep '24

17 Sep '24

From what I understood, the change to openssh listed in: rpm -q --changelog openssh |less as: "* Wed Jun 20 2007 Tomas Mraz <tmraz(a)redhat.com> - 4.5p1-7 - experimental NSS keys support - correctly setup context when empty level requested (#234951) " was supposed to allow the Common Access Card (CAC) to work with the shipped Fedora 8 ssh. As per NSS usual, everything is undocumented, i.e., `ssh-add --help` does not help at all, and `man ssh-add` points to `ssh-add -s reader` # ssh-add -s 0 Enter passphrase for smartcard: SSH_AGENT_FAILURE Could not add card: 0 # ssh-add -s 1 Enter passphrase for smartcard: SSH_AGENT_FAILURE Could not add card: 1 So does anyone know how to use the possible functionality, or are we reduced to reading the source? -- Todd Denniston Crane Division, Naval Surface Warfare Center (NSWC Crane) Harnessing the Power of Technology for the Warfighter

Apache fails to resume after hibernation
by Patrick O'Callaghan 07 Sep '24

07 Sep '24

I've noticed recently that Apache often (or perhaps always) doesn't respond after a system hibernate/resume cycle. After restarting it ('apachectl restart') all is well. I could script an automatic restart after resuming, but I wondered if this is a well-known problem with a simpler solution. poc

This list's search engine not working?
by HaJo Schatz 22 May '24

22 May '24

Ever since I stumbled across this list, I seem to have major difficulties searching the archives. Say I want to see my posts to the list (they all have the same footer as below), I believe I could go to http://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-list/ and enter "HaJo" as a search string. Searching in all sections, I get 0 results. Does the search engine ignore me by some reason? BTW -- I've been posting since about June, and when showing the archives sorted by author, I do find my posts. OK, not the most helpful to search for my own posts, but I do have the same issue when searching for given topics. Any other search engine out there indexing this list reliably? Google shows 0 hits on a "site:www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-list/" search... -- HaJo Schatz <hajo(a)hajo.net> http://www.HaJo.Net PGP-Key: http://www.hajo.net/hajonet/keys/pgpkey_hajo.txt

Hi Michael, --- Michael Folin <michael.folin(a)donator.se> wrote: > how do I install Tomcat i fedora? > can't find it during the installation > If you mean during the installation of Fedora Core itself, then I don't think Tomcat is provided with Fedora Core (please feel free to correct me if I'm wrong). This means you will probably need to download Apache Jakarta Tomcat (either binaries, or the source which you'll need to build) and install it. Hope this helps.

Virtualbox vs VMware for Fedora?
by Sbob 08 Feb '24

08 Feb '24

All; I am running Fedora39, I have run VMware workstation for years, and I have on and off had issues since VMware does not officially support Fedora, normally I run a patch after each kernel update and it mostly just works. I am also running the osx unlocker so I can run mac VM's I recently tried virtualbox on a spare laptop, havent looked at virtualbox in years, and I was impressed, a few questions for the community: - can I run the osx unlocker with virtualbox? - does virtualbox have the same issues where it needs a patch after each kernel and sometimes just breaks with a new kernel , even with the patch? Thanks in advance

firefox keeps freezing on me
by Michael Hennebry 11 Dec '23

11 Dec '23

My firefox on F38 freezes a lot. I get "Firefox" is not responding a lot. At one time, I thought it was because of too many windows and tabs open. I closed several windows. Shutting it down and bringing it back up often helped, but not necessarily for very long. According to top, firefox freezes even when the load average is less than two, most of swap is free and neither firefox nor its minions are near the top of top. My new suspicion is that it waits for something that does not happen often enough. How do I diagnose this? -- Michael hennebry(a)mail.cs.ndsu.NoDak.edu "I was just thinking about the life of a pumpkin.

Upgrade KDE Wayland Spin 38->39 KDE Background Screen Issue
by richard emberson 08 Dec '23

08 Dec '23

Upgrade KDE Wayland Spin 38->39 KDE Background Screen Issue KDE Screen Issue (or Plasma issue, or...) 1) Login screen comes up and can login. 2) KDE screen mix of colors and black... moving mouse and screen continues to redraw random colors (but, mostly black). 3) Bottom panel (in hide mode) comes up and looks normal. Top ToolBar is drawing like the screen (not normal) but I can tell its being drawn ontop of the screen background (different colors/black). 5) Firefox comes up rendering like normal. 6) Thunderbird asks for password and it comes up drawing like normal. 7) Using Mouse Right Button, menu come up (look normal) and can 8 "Open Terminal". Kconsole comes up like normal. 9) From Kconsole can launch alacritty multiple times all normal. 10) Background and ToolBar still not rendering correctly. 11) Can move mouse over ToolBar and popups appear. Can also click and launch/hide terminals, firefox, thunderbird when mouse if over their position in ToolBar. 12) I can render a jpeg photo in eog and it comes up just fine. With Fedora 38 KDE Spin I did not have this issue with the background or ToolBar. So, has anyone seen this behavior? Where do I start? Thanks.

Python code error in F39, but not in F38
by Ranjan Maitra 03 Dec '23

03 Dec '23

Hi, I was running the code here: https://github.com/maitra/Visual-Information-Fidelity---Python3 However, the code runs in F38 (python 3.11) without error, but not in F39 (python 3.12) where it ends with a segmentation fault (after doing the calculations). Both, however, give an answer that are not the same after the 14th decimal place. Not sure if I should be bothered about that. Looking at valgrind, I can not tell if there is an error in the python call itself. Here is what I get (note that the code calls shared objects created by the gcc compiler). ==278781== Invalid read of size 8 ==278781== at 0x4A50B5B: UnknownInlinedFun (pycore_pystate.h:118) ==278781== by 0x4A50B5B: UnknownInlinedFun (obmalloc.c:866) ==278781== by 0x4A50B5B: _PyObject_Free (obmalloc.c:1850) ==278781== by 0x6526E92E: UnknownInlinedFun (siplib.c:2241) ==278781== by 0x6526E92E: UnknownInlinedFun (objmap.c:69) ==278781== by 0x6526E92E: finalise (siplib.c:2143) ==278781== by 0x49AC4D3: UnknownInlinedFun (pylifecycle.c:3018) ==278781== by 0x49AC4D3: Py_FinalizeEx.cold (pylifecycle.c:1977) ==278781== by 0x4B22336: Py_RunMain (main.c:691) ==278781== by 0x4ADD85B: Py_BytesMain (main.c:743) ==278781== by 0x4EE1149: (below main) (libc_start_call_main.h:58) ==278781== Address 0x10 is not stack'd, malloc'd or (recently) free'd ==278781== ==278781== ==278781== Process terminating with default action of signal 11 (SIGSEGV): dumping core ==278781== Access not within mapped region at address 0x10 ==278781== at 0x4A50B5B: UnknownInlinedFun (pycore_pystate.h:118) ==278781== by 0x4A50B5B: UnknownInlinedFun (obmalloc.c:866) ==278781== by 0x4A50B5B: _PyObject_Free (obmalloc.c:1850) ==278781== by 0x6526E92E: finalise (siplib.c:2143) ==278781== by 0x49AC4D3: UnknownInlinedFun (pylifecycle.c:3018) ==278781== by 0x49AC4D3: Py_FinalizeEx.cold (pylifecycle.c:1977) ==278781== by 0x4B22336: Py_RunMain (main.c:691) ==278781== by 0x4ADD85B: Py_BytesMain (main.c:743) ==278781== by 0x4EE1149: (below main) (libc_start_call_main.h:58) ==278781== If you believe this happened as a result of a stack ==278781== overflow in your program's main thread (unlikely but ==278781== possible), you can try to increase the size of the ==278781== main thread stack using the --main-stacksize= flag. ==278781== The main thread stack size used in this run was 8388608. ==278781== ==278781== HEAP SUMMARY: ==278781== in use at exit: 18,046,811 bytes in 92,137 blocks ==278781== total heap usage: 2,212,074 allocs, 2,119,937 frees, 1,983,813,202 bytes allocated ==278781== ==278781== LEAK SUMMARY: ==278781== definitely lost: 2,160,027 bytes in 41,915 blocks ==278781== indirectly lost: 112 bytes in 2 blocks ==278781== possibly lost: 5,021,632 bytes in 34,430 blocks ==278781== still reachable: 10,863,024 bytes in 15,769 blocks ==278781== suppressed: 0 bytes in 0 blocks It is possible that there is a bug in the code itself, but nothing above points to my created code.
