rsync commands help request
by Max Pyziur
Greetings,
I've been using rsync to backup from my various desktops and laptops to an
in-house networked server. A variant of the script is appended below.
Located in /etc/cron.hourly, the script pings a machine to see if it is
live; if so, it proceeds to do an incremental backup to a machine-specific
location on a dedicated drive. Components of this script were suggested,
and then I adapted it for my situation.
Where I seem to run into some trouble is when I try to restore from the
dedicated drive when it is attached to a machine via USB cable.
Specifically, when running a command such as this:
rsync -av /var/backup/machine1/home/SomeUser /home
I get a lot of messages such as this:
rsync: [receiver] mkstemp "/path/to/some/file.0atuCZ" failed: Invalid
argument (22)
In the process, not all files are restored.
Any guidance would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you,
MP

More on Dell XPS 13s
by Max Pyziur
Greetings
A few weeks ago I initiated a discussion on Dell XPS laptops of various
vintages.
One thing I requested was information on people's experience (if any )
with Dell XPS 13 9380s (of 2019 vintage). I have since acquired a
refurbished variant, and have installed F38 on it. It seems to be working
very well. The USB-C comment was very helpful: the machine is rife with
USB-C connections, so conversion adaptors from USB-A to USB-C are
necessary for legacy/residual devices.
The motivation for the purchase was that my Dell XPS 13 L322X (of 2013
vintage) had been overheating and I wasn't sure what the proper remedy
should be. Once I had the 9380 working, I did some research on the L322X
and purchased a new fan for it. Not only did I install it, I refitted the
CPU heat sink. As it turns out, the thermal grease had dried, some of
which flaked away. After scraping the dried grease off, reapplying a new
layer, reseating the heatsink, and replacing the fan, the L322X runs about
50-70 degrees F lower (using the lm_sensors package to verify), where
before it had been breaching. (Also, the L322X's keyboard had become more
difficult to use with some keys repeating whle other keys becoming
somewhat unresponsive; along with the fan and heatsink I replaced the
keyboard).
fyi,
Max

does streaming go to ram or drive?
by ToddAndMargo
Hi All,
I do like to listen to music when I am doing a dump backup.
When I am streaming a web radio station with SMPlayer,
does the data go to ram or hard drive?
Many thanks,

F37: any suggestions on this WebEx error on F37?
by Ranjan Maitra
Hi,
I use the WebEx client on F37. I have used it for about a couple of years and like it a fair bit.
However, of late, WebEx seems to work fine only for the first time after a reboot. After a successful shutdown, it never comes up, and instead, I get:
$ /opt/Webex/bin/CiscoCollabHost
Wx: X error received: type 0, serial 9, error_code 3, request_code 12, minor_code 0
Wx: X error received: type 0, serial 10, error_code 3, request_code 8, minor_code 0
It is unclear to me how to fix or troubleshoot this problem. Both dmesg and tail -f /var/log/messages indicate no entries when this call is made.
Any suggestions?
Many thanks and best wishes,
Ranjan

randomization
by Bill Cunningham
How would you access randomization at the system level? No via
srand or rand, but the randomization the system offers through
/dev/random. Would this be a fedora level system call ?
I intend to take a 512 or 1024, for example, size chunk and fill
that with system randomization. Not what you get with srand and rand I
believe they are inferior to system randomization.

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.
