some securirity issue in fc37, upgraded form fc36
I ubgraded fromm fc36 to fc37 Beta. My issue: Running a MATE session in fc37, and suspending it by the command "sudo systemctl suspend". Then I saw that it is possible to resume to the suspended session without entering the login password of the previously suspended session. The same problem exists in fc36. No such problems if doing the same procedure in a Cinnamon session. Anybody made the similar experience?

display state of package generation on KOJI
Hi developers, sometimes I'm searching for new packages on KOJI, for example for new kernels, but I see only a "Finished" column (beside others) on the specific website. It would be helpful if the "Finished" column could display a little bit more: The time of *starting* the package generation or the time when the generation has *finished* (with/without error), so one could guess the remaining time of package generation. I would be grateful for such an improvement.

Do you need to add -D_GNU_SOURCE to your compile line?
Yes, it compiles too with -D_GNU_SOURCE

Macro L_cuserid missing in /usr/include/stdio.h in F17 ?
The man page of getlogin(3) says that L_cuserid is declared in
stdio.h. But if I try to compile (gcc-4.7.0-5.fc17.x86_64) a little
source using L_cuserid
#include unistd.h
#include stdio.h
main () {
fprintf (stderr,L_cuserid = %d,L_cuserid);
}
I get an error:
x.c: In function ‘main’:
x.c:4:34: error: ‘L_cuserid’ undeclared (first use in this function)
x.c:4:34: note: each undeclared identifier is reported only once for
each function it appears in
The source compiles correctly if I use -D_XOPEN_SOURCE
Kind regards

aggregation of gnome tools
In the meanwhile, several tools have been developed for the management of my gnome or gnome3 desktop (gui or not gui based), but each time I need to use them I have to think about what tool to use: gnome-tweak-tool gconf-editor dconf-editor gconftool-2 gnome-session-properties ... It seems there is a tendency for creating more and more such tools. It would be very helpful for the user if such tools could be aggregated to a *homogenous* and gui based tool so I have not to think about which one to use. All comments are welcome.

Samsung ml printers
Attaching Samsung ML printers (e.g. ML-1660) registers such a printer with an URI as usb://... . But its's not possible to work with such a printer :-( The only way is to use the Samsung package UnifiedLinuxDriver_0.86.tar.gz. It installs such a printer too with an URI as usb://..., but then it is fully operable. Additionally, no splix package available in F15. On the other hand, the attach process in *Ubuntu 11.04* leaves a fully operable printer without any need for interaction.

Hi Raphael, thank you for your advice, but if I install the openprinting-splix-2.0.0-2lsb3.2.x86_64.rpm (I guess, you meant this), my printer ML-1660 (USB attached) is not found in the database, so it is not operable, although I had loaded the kernel module usblp.ko.

What does the DVD media check if installing a new Fedora version? / Proposal
Hi, having the following question: What does the DVD/CD media check exactly if booting a Fedora DVD/CD? Is it the sha256sum? If yes, why this media check, because it could be done after having burned the DVD? If not, is it possible to perform this media check immediately after having burned the DVD (means: can I start the media check from that freshly burned DVD?) Proposal: If not, it would be nice if the media checker would be placed on the DVD for running in normal mode after the DVD has burned - perhaps allowing to check both an i386 and x86_64 install DVD.

We're looking at pulling kernel-2.6.33.1-24.fc13 into Fedora 13 Beta, quite late, because current Beta candidate builds include kernel-2.6.33.1-19.fc13 which is known to include a severe bug that breaks boot on systems with Broadcom wired ethernet adapters supported by the b44 module. However, -24 has other changes from -19, including to the nouveau (NVIDIA graphics) and iwlwifi (Intel wifi) drivers. We really need as many people as possible to test kernel -24, which you can get at http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=164598 , and confirm that it works okay on your systems. To install it, use 'rpm -ivh' for the kernel and -devel packages. If you have kernel-headers installed, 'rpm -Uvh' that first. Then reboot to the kernel and check that it boots up okay. Please reply to this thread with your results. Thanks! Hi Adam, no problems until now after installing kernel, kernel-devel, kernel-headers and rebooting.
