Jeeze, first people complain draxservices doesn't show all systemd service and now that I fixed that people complain they show them... I can't win :p
'Twas brillig, and Robert Fox at 06/05/12 09:14 did gyre and gimble: > I wanted to check something using drakxservices and noticed here are 8 > separate sevices starting with the name "fedora" in them > (fedora-autorelabel, fedora-readonly, fedora-configure) > > Not all services are running and I am not sure what each of these does. > More disturbing is why they are called "fedora" instead of Mageia? Hmm, you have a strange definition of "disturbing" :) These are upstream provided units that do what we want them to do. I see no reason to rename them to mageia and introduce potential problems for a purely cosmetic thing. Same reason to not rename mandrake_everytime service. > Also, I noticed 22 different "systemd" entries - many of which are not > started on boot or not running (like systemd-readahead-collect) - Where > can I read about these to understand more and why so many?? Look at the code. Just cat/less the systemd unit file then look at what it does and follow it through. There is also a handy "Info" button that gives you a broad overview of what it does. Longer term, we should hide certain services that users do not really have control over and generally shouldn't care about.
