Try something like: time dd if=/dev/zero of=/the/usb/drive count=1000 bs=1M You might be surprised. poc As I just replied with the actual read/write performance data on this USB 3.0 SUperTalentExpress Drive (256GB), I am much more surprised by the fact that while tarring a large dir to it from a fast eSATA drive, the system becomes nearly unusable!!! So, if this shtick is so slow, why is writing to it killing the response time for everything else? I see the same sort of issue (F21, cinnamon desktop). If the disk write or read is getting backed up with a queue of info, then that should mean the desktop UI is more responsive, since the CPU is idle. But it doesn't seem to work that way. It quite often seems to be waiting on a large disk IO to complete.

After dnf-installing a few packages, most things seem to be working, but I'm puzzled by the apparent lack of a panel, or if the bar at the top with Activities and Time are the panel then I'm puzzled by the lack of icons in the panel.

So no, it doesn't make sense to have a KDE without Plasma. Also, note that a further change has introduced the name KDE Frameworks, which is why most of the components are now called kf5-*.

Re: Windows 8 Dual boot lost after Fedora upgrade
After advice from Chris I've created the Windows recovery USB stick from http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-8/create-reset-refresh-media and run it choosing the system repair option. I now have a working Windows 8 system on my laptop. Unfortunately, it now boots straight into Windows and doesn't show the GRUB menu. If I press F9 to get the boot menu I can select from OS Boot Manager Fedora (STT000LM014-1EJ164-SSHD) Boot From EFI File OS Boot Manager takes me into Windows Fedora then shows me the GRUB menu and lets me boot Fedora If I go into the BIOS menu and look at the boot sequence, OS Boot Manager is at the top of the list, but there is no other option that would make the Fedora / GRUB option the default. The full list is: OS boot Manager Internal CD/DVD ROM Drive USB Diskette on key/USB Hard Disk USB CD/DVD Drive Having booted into Fedora I re-ran grub2-mkconfig -o ~/Downloads/grub.cfg hoping that it would now include WIndows, but it still does not. This means that even if I get GRUB to be the default boot loader, I'll lose Windows again.

But here's my take. If you look in the files section of the spec file, you find the egg.info file listed. And rpmbuild is obviously looking for the files listed in there. Go to the BUILD directory, and look inside that file to see what it wants. You can then put shell commands in the spec file to create dummy files where they are expected using something like touch. Or you can patch the source to create them with real information, from a currently running version, for example. That will allow rpmbuild to find the files it wants, and create the rpms. -- users mailing list users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?

binary executes in an SELinux type other than its label
courierlogger is labeled courier_exec_t in the filesystem, but
appears to execute under system_mail_t. I think the former type is
being treated as an alias for the latter, but I don't remember where I'd
look for information on that.
The problem is that when upgrading the courier-authlib package, a
preuninstall script runs authdaemond stop, which in turn uses
courierlogger to signal the running process to exit. The command hangs,
while courierlogger tries to send the signal (in a loop) and is denied
by SELinux policy.
$ ls -lZ /usr/sbin/courierlogger
-rwxr-xr-x. daemon daemon system_u:object_r:courier_exec_t:s0
/usr/sbin/courierlogger*
This is the AVC that is logged repeatedly while courierlogger is trying
to stop authdaemond.

Re: rpmbuild error in F22 (looking for desktop file)
Hi, Thank you for your response! I am trying to make a rpm out of the following application: https://github.com/apandada1/typhoon but my spec file, created from looking at the batti.spec file looks for a desktop file, rather than a desktop.in file. What I don't understand is where it figures out how to look for a desktop file. Any suggestions/help? I don't have a lot of experience with rpmbuild and spec files. Here is the spec file: $ fpaste typhoon.spec Uploading (1.4KiB)... http://ur1.ca/n4lhh - http://paste.fedoraproject.org/244462/14369268 And here is the error that I am getting: $rpmbuild -bb typhoon.spec - /home/maitra/rpmbuild/BUILDROOT/typhoon-0.8.9.4-1.fc22.x86_64/usr/share/doc/typhoon running install_egg_info Writing /home/maitra/rpmbuild/BUILDROOT/typhoon-0.8.9.4-1.fc22.x86_64/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/typhoon-0.8.94-py2.7.egg-info (ERROR: Can't find, '/home/maitra/rpmbuild/BUILDROOT/typhoon-0.8.9.4-1.fc22.x86_64/usr/share/applications/typhoon.desktop') error: Bad exit status from /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.X1IL6J (%install) RPM build errors: Bad exit status from /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.X1IL6J (%install) Someone more knowledgeable will probably offer better advice. But here's my take. If you look in the files section of the spec file, you find the egg.info file listed. And rpmbuild is obviously looking for the files listed in there. Go to the BUILD directory, and look inside that file to see what it wants. So, from what I understood from your suggestions, I should look at: /home/maitra/rpmbuild/BUILDROOT/typhoon-0.8.9.4-1.fc22.x86_64/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/typhoon-0.8.94-py2.7.egg-info So, that is what I did but I can not see what the files are that it wants.

Do you have a currently installed version of this package that you can consult? rpm -q --files [package name] No. This software is under GPL and so I thought it might be interesting to see if it can be packaged for Fedora. The app looks cool and the current developer (who I contacted) is a high school student but does not know much about packaging for Fedora. He did suggest using Alien for creating the spec file from the debian package (but he did not know much about it, and I had not even heard about it) so I passed on that. I also thought that perhaps the debian package needs a Debian machine. Many thanks again! Best wishes, Ranjan FREE 3D MARINE AQUARIUM SCREENSAVER - Watch dolphins, sharks orcas on your desktop!
