Does this have anything to do with Fedora? Advertising is not
acceptable on this list.

SATA optical drives
by David Fletcher
I'm currently running FC5, will probably upgrade to F7 in a couple of months.
Unfortunately my CD/DVD rewriter appears to have died, before it's
even seen a dual layer disk :'(
SATA hard drives run without problems for me, but now that SATA
optical drives are starting to appear in the shops, would it be OK to
buy one of these and get rid of another wide ribbon cable?
Is anybody already running them with Fedora?
Thanks for any advice/experiences.

F38: GNOME on XORG: Some apps have Windows titlebar with
Minimize/Maximize Buttons
by Dario Lesca
I use "GNOME on Xorgs", after upgrade to F38 some apps, like Firefox or
Libreoffice, are show with Minimize/Maximize Buttons on windows
titlebar.
Also F38 Workstation live version, if you set password to liveuser and
logon with "GNOME on Xorgs" (and not with default GNOME on Wayland),
show same apps with Minimize/Maximize Buttons on windows titlebar
Other apps, like gnome-terminal or nautilus, are displayed correctly,
without Minimize and Maximize Buttons on windows titlebar
I use the Middle-Click mouse button set to "lower" via gnome-tweaks,
and this behaviour DO NOT WORK on windows with Minimize/Maximize
Buttons on windows titlebar.
It's possible to disable Minimize/Maximize Buttons on windows titlebar
for all windows, even if I use "GNOME on Xorgs"?
Or it's a bug?
Many thanks for your help

Systemd Unit Fails at Boot, but Succeeds when Started from the
Console
by Jonathan Ryshpan
This unit
$ cat /etc/systemd/system/noip-duc.service
[Unit]
Description=No-IP Dynamic Update Client
After=network.target auditd.service
[Service]
EnvironmentFile=/etc/sysconfig/noip-duc
ExecStart=/usr/local/bin/noip-duc
Restart=on-failure
Type=simple
[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target
always fails at boot time with the message status=2/INVALIDARGUMENT
Here is an extract from the system log (a fuller extract is attached):
Mar 18 07:57:56 OaklandWeather.localdomain systemd[1]: Started noip-
duc.service - No-IP Dynamic Update Client.
Mar 18 07:57:58 OaklandWeather.localdomain systemd[1]: noip-duc.service:
Main process exited, code=exited, status=2/INVALIDARGUMENT
Mar 18 07:57:58 OaklandWeather.localdomain systemd[1]: noip-duc.service:
Failed with result 'exit-code'.
Mar 18 07:57:58 OaklandWeather.localdomain systemd[1]: noip-duc.service:
Scheduled restart job, restart counter is at 1.
Mar 18 07:57:58 OaklandWeather.localdomain systemd[1]: Stopped noip-
duc.service - No-IP Dynamic Update Client.
Mar 18 07:57:58 OaklandWeather.localdomain systemd[1]: Started noip-
duc.service - No-IP Dynamic Update Client.
Mar 18 07:57:58 OaklandWeather.localdomain systemd[1]: noip-duc.service:
Main process exited, code=exited, status=2/INVALIDARGUMENT
Mar 18 07:57:58 OaklandWeather.localdomain systemd[1]: noip-duc.service:
Failed with result 'exit-code'.
Mar 18 07:57:58 OaklandWeather.localdomain systemd[1]: noip-duc.service:
Scheduled restart job, restart counter is at 2.
However if the unit is started from the console after the boot process
is complete:
$ systemctrl start noip-duc.service
it succeeds.
How can I find out what the argument is with which systemd is invoking
noip-duc, so I can understand why it is invalid at boot time but valid
when the unit is started afterwards from the console? I would simply
recompile it to output this, but noip-duc is written in the rust
programming language, which I to lazy to learn for this one application.

Broken browser? Or broken website...
by Dave Close
Accessing a page on <https://discussion.fedoraproject.org/>, I am
presented with a banner reading, "Unfortunately, your browser is
unsupported. Please switch to a supported browser to view rich content,
log in and reply." I am unable to scroll beyond the portion of the
page immediately visible.
But, of course, I didn't ask for any support. I recognize that my
browsers of choice may not properly render some web sites that choose
to use some newer facilities. ("rich content", indeed! I'd be very happy
without "rich" content.) If I'm stuck, I can use a different browser;
I know how to do that.
I wouldn't object to a banner warning me that some parts of the site
might not render properly on my browser. But fedoraproject.org takes
things further by refusing to allow the entire page to load. I resent
their patronizing and holier-than-thou attitude.
Unfortunately, fedoraproject.org is not the only place I've encountered
this abomination. What gives the administrators of these places their
special rights to control the rest of us?

F38/Xfce restoring apps on login
by Robert Moskowitz
What do I set so that the apps I had running the last login are
autorestarted?
That is the behavior I am use to, but I can't figure out what is
different that on this new F38, I start up on login with nothing running.

htpasswd weirdness
by Patrick O'Callaghan
My small web server is now mostly working, but I'm having a very
strange problem. I can *usually* add user accounts from the Shell using
htpasswd, and they can log in successfully.
Except when I can't.
In *some" cases, usernames are added to the password file, and the
password verifies correctly (using 'htppasswd -v ...'), but Apache
still throws an error, e.g.:
[Sat Apr 29 17:12:10.790251 2023] [authz_core:error] [pid 17622:tid 17769] [client 82.69.61.82:40716] AH01631: user notatest: authorization failure for "/":
(NB: "authorization failure", not "authentication failure" as with a
password mismatch.)
Since these are all fictitious users (i.e. not local UIDs) I don't
understand what's going on. Either it should always work or always
fail.
Suggestions welcome.
