qemu + plan9(virtfs) and access(still) denied
hi everybody I wonder if you had a chance to use virtfs with passthrough in qemu? I have a host that passes through a directory to a guest, in the guest I can mount the tag successfully and list the content of the mountpoint, but when I try to create a file or make a dir I get "permission denied", but... I can remove files/dirs - is this not weird? I believe I've fished out all denials and also with disabled silent denials I do not see anything. I wonder if somebody can comment whether it is selinux problem? I'm on Centos 7.2 with elrepo's kernel 4.7. many thanks.

A lot of monitor firmwares always report the same size even when there are many different models of the monitors with different sizes. This can screw up gnome DPI computations and give you funny sized fonts.

Make sure you have the xorg-x11-utils RPM installed, then do xrandr --prop In the output, look for something like: EDID: 00000469f6270bec0100 1e150103803c22782aeed5a555489b26 125054b7ef00714f81c0814081809500 b300d1c00101023a801871382d40582c 45005650211e00ff0042374c 4d54463132353936330a00fd0032 55185c11000a20202020202000fc 00415355532056453237380a202001d4 020322714f0102031112130414050e0f 1d1e1f1023090701830165030c00 10008c0ad08a20e02d10103e96000925 2118011d007251d01e206e285500 0925211e011d00bc52d01e20b828 55400925211e8c0ad09020403120 0c40550009252118 0073 relating to the output of your active screen.

I am not an expert. But this sounds like a faulty EDID, or path to read the EDID. Fedora / linux reads the information about the monitor directly from the monitor itself. I think this can be overridden by putting a configuration file in /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/ with the information needed. A search should turn up samples. Is it possible that you already have an override file there, for a 22" Goldstar monitor? Or that the connection to the LG is flaky, so the EDID can't be read properly?

I'd assume the bug should be filed against both NM and nm-applet since it's some sort of mis-interaction between them and it's not clear whose mechanism should be followed.

Re: Browser Privacy
Thanks for sharing this! Some more addons I use: 1. HTTPS Everywhere – force-redirects to HTTPS on a list (whitelist) of known sites. Doesn't break much stuff. I think this is a must-have. 2. RequestPolicyContinued – can be configured to disable _all_ requests from any server but the page source host. This preference is pretty safe but breaks _lots_ and *lots* of pages. In contrast to uBlock Origin (which does blacklisting, same as AdBlock and other ad blockers) this addon can do whitelisting. Better protection, more sites break. 3. CanvasBlocker – blocks canvas elements used to track you. More addons, not security-related: * Config Descriptions – for heavy users of about:config Video without flash: I highly recommend you don't use any plugins in firefox, not only for security reasons but also for safety (crashers!) reasons.
