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. Dave F

where to submit a bug against "xv"?

by home user

"xv" does not handle "webp" images. I do not see "xv" in the Redhat bugzilla menu of components. Where do I submit a bug against xv?

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.

Fedora USB live: not lively.

by home user

While preparing to upgrade to Fedora-37 (planned for mid-April), I noticed that my emergency tools are seriously out of date. Those are memtest, Fedora live, and rescue. memtest was dealt with in a thread earlier this month. Now I'm trying to update my Fedora live USB stick to Fedora-36. I used Fedora Media Writer to do that. I saw no hint of trouble while using that. But when I try to boot up from the stick (USB-3, if that matters), I get varying bad results. Two tries failed to complete the boot. One try appeared to succeed, but I couldn't launch any applications. The applications I tried were Firefox, a terminal, and I don't recall the other. The last application launch attempt locked up the workstation. This workstation is 10 years old. It uses bios. I've attached a PNG screen capture of what Files says is on the stick at the top level. I do not have a cell phone or camera to capture the boot screen when the boot fails. Main question: How do I make a Fedora-36 USB live stick that really works? Secondary question: I can't find a tool on my workstation to check the stick. Disks, GSmartControl, and Disk Usage Analyzer don't do that, How can I check the stick itself? I actually tried 2 sticks for the Fedora Media Writer. They both failed when trying to boot.

Request for recommendations on installing Viber and Signal

by Max Pyziur

Per the subject line any recommendations on F38 would be helpful. I had both installed on my Dell XPS 13 L322 laptop, but bc the upgrade failed I've had to do a fresh install and restore my data. Viber does provide an rpm: rpm can be found here https://www.viber.com/en/download/ (look under the Windows & others section for the Fedora version) Instructions here: https://help.viber.com/en/article/set-up-viber-on-your-desktop However, it fails on my laptop with no clear guidance on why or what dependencies are missing. Also, there is no repo; when I first installed viber, the version was Viber-13.x installed originally in 2020(?). The current version is 18.x. Thank you, Max pyz(a)brama.com

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 -- Dario Lesca (Inviato dal mio Linux Fedora 38 Workstation)
