Yes, there was some change from 23 to 24 that sometimes caused that
problem.  Try
enabling sddm or find out which window manager is used for login for KDE.



Well, FWIW, any window manager will work just fine.  I have two systems
installed with
both GNOME and KDE as options.  One is running GDM and the other SDDM.  No
issues.

I'm not certain, but I believe F23 used to use KDM.

So, yes, the OP should ensure that one of those are enabled and that it
started properly.

I think you are correct regarding F23 in that I have KDM installed (but now

I shall try installing and enabling SDDM.

Well, usually they "break" when the upgrade process determines that no other 
package uses
that library.

There is no need to enable rc-local since it is a "static" service.

All that is required is that /etc/rc.d/rc.local is executable.

See the comments in /usr/lib/systemd/system/rc-local.service for details.

Ok, thanks.  I've never used it yet, but now I do remember a thread on

No X/KDE after upgrade to F24

2016-11-26 Thread Stephen Davies

I have just completed the upgrade from F23 to F24 and rebooted to the new 
version.

The system now boots to console mode and I have to login and type startx to 
get to KDE.

F23 started X and KDE automagically.

I also seem to have lost some libraries. e.g. the 32-bit version of 
libncurses.so.5


Several daemons failed to start at reboot. These include all those in rc.local 
(yes. I do still have a few.) and openvpn.


Running rc.local manually works and starting openvpn manually with systemctl 
also works.


What could cause these issues?

I see: I am surprised that it did not add this package during the upgrade, 
because it seems that NetworkManager-openconnect is pointless now without it. 
(I installed it and it works fine, so thanks again for that!)

I wonder if this would be impossible to implement, completely. After all, we do 
go through updates just fine, when whole libraries are updated sometimes. It 
depends on how it is/can be done.

Yes, indeed, so where do I find the solution?

It's actually NetworkManager-openconnect-gnome that you need, which also

As an aside, while very smooth, I think that the upgrade itself can do with a 
bit more installation before the reboot: perhaps some of the things that are 
applications can be installed after the other ones have upgraded and after the 
system has come up since upgrade during the boot process leaves the computer 
pretty unusable. Just a thought: I have no idea if it is possible to implement

Re: Firewall methods for fedora25

I've only got this working with sshd which was my main concern but I have
the following that seems to work:

In /etc/fail2ban/jail.d:

$ cat sshd.local

I agree though that the firewalld and fail2ban maintainers should get

Sorry, my musings were not clear. I was thinking that a lot fewer of the 
files/rpms being upgraded have anything to do with the system. So, perhaps 
these rpms (eg kernel, glibc, openssh, etc) should be upgraded before boot and

Got it, thanks. Turned out that dnf needed refreshing. It was 3 days
old (since I updated to F25). I almost never needed to refresh manually
on F24 so I don't know if this is a change or a temporary hiccup.

On checking the Nvidia page I see that the 375.xx series does support
the GT630, which is my card. It was released by Nvidia on Nov. 18
according to http://www.geforce.com/drivers/results/111596 though
RPMfusion doesn't seem to have it yet.

The option you mention is not present in F25/XFCE, but in the
"Appearance" menue. Anyway, hacking in the system config is definitely
needed, because there are programs that presumably do not obey the
antialiasing and hinting settings, as e.g. firefox or thunderbird,
while others do.

I'll take a closer look at the remaining F24 system, where this wasn't
of any problem. I bet it has to do with the file mentioned before.

No, it's definitely not. I have the same phenomenon on (now) three different
machines. One has nvidia graphics, one AMD and one Intel Ironlake. On
all three, changing the file mentioned in the mail before made the
font sharp and crisp again.

If you use stock Fedora fonts, it may be that is why you didn't notice
the effect. I have always hated blurry fonts, and highly prefer "as
sharp and clear as possible".

What I'm doing is:

1. Recompiling freetype with subpixel rendering and the bytecode
interpreter enabled.

2. Setting antialiasing and hinting to "max" (Applications -> Settings
-> Appearance -> Fonts).

That sufficed to get the desired "as sharp as possible" effect, until
F25. While most of the fonts where as sharp and crisp as before using
1 and 2, some were not, as e.g. in Firefox, Thunderbird and some other
programs. Most probably because they obey the systemwide font
config. This obviously wasn't the case in previous Fedora releases. As
a "sharp and crisp" freak, I can tell that there's a *huge* difference
if a font is slightly or fully hinted.

I'm not running Fedora or Gnome at this moment, so I may be barking
up the wrong tree here:

I've always found (on RHEL or centos) that you can right-click on the
desktop background, choose "change desktop background", then click on
the fonts tab. Once there you'll be able to choose (under Rendering)
several choices for the amount of detail you want in the fonts (where
I assume that the more detail the more CPU is required). you can
choose "monochrome", "best shapes", "best contrast", or "subpixel smoothing".

then click the details button and you have additional settings, you can
choose among 3 settings for "smoothing", and four for "hinting". I always
choose the "best" settings for all 3 of those properties, and I find
the fonts look pretty good.

on that details screen you can also choose subpixel order, where I
assume the choice should match how  your display hardware works. How
does one know how it works? I don't have any wisdom here, but I think
you could examine the left edge and top edge of the LCD screen with a
magnifier powerful enough to see the subpixels. Probably the defaul of
"RGB" is correct for most screens, though.

So, there's no need to go hacking amongst system config files!

I don't know if it will help, but I've always found this
file to make all fonts look better:

/etc/fonts/conf.d/10-autohint.conf




 
  
true
  


Haven't tried it on f25 yet so I don't know if it works
there or not.

I have always found default fonts in fedora to be inferior to just
about every other linux release, with ubuntu always seeming to
have the most readable default fonts. Possibly f25 has just
switched all the themes to a different default font which looks
worse, so the hinting above might not help.

F25 Wayland on Optimus-enabled laptops

2016-11-26 Thread Link Dupont
Two headline features of Fedora 25 are:

- Wayland by default
- Initial support for PRIME offload rendering for NVIDIA Optimus
laptops

My laptop has a dual GPU setup (Skylake + GTX 970), but I can't seem to
start a Wayland session at all. GDM even runs using Xorg, and the
"GNOME" session logs in using Xorg.

I checked my initramfs, but it includes the drm module, as well as both
kernel modules: nouveau.ko and i915.ko. From a console session, I can
start weston (weston-launch), but I can't start gnome-shell (dbus-run-
session -- gnome-shell --display-server --wayland). It errors with:

mutter-WARNING **: Can't initialize KMS backend: could not find drm kms
device.

The Wayland session worked in F24, so I'm guessing this is because of
the dual-GPU support enabled in F25. Should these two features be
mutually exclusive? Should I expect wayland *or* GPU render offloading?

Hi,

updated two machines from F24 to F25, and now the fonts configured in
Applications -> Settings -> Appearance are no longer on the same level
of sharpness/clarity as they were in previous Fedora releases.
It is considerably visible in Thunderbird and Firefox. While there was
no problem to get clear and sharp fonts using antialiasing and
hinting, it now seems to be impossible, at least in programs that
adapt their fonts from the above mentioned setting.

Does anybody know what's going on and what I can do to get back
pre-F25 behaviour?

I believe you're talking about the 304.xx series drivers and support for Xorg

If that is the case, the answer is no.  And, I doubt they will considering the

I do not believe that Xfce has been updated to support wayland.  I don't have it
installed, but I believe if you open a terminal and check for the environment 
variables it
will tell you if you're running a wayland session.

WAYLAND_DISPLAY=wayland-0

or something similar will show.  This is what shows when running GNOME or KDE

disgusting, especially in Firefox and Thunderbird.

I have a lot of tabs open in firefox and it does start getting slow 
after a while.  It depends a lot on what websites you have loaded.  When 
Firefox gets slow like that, open a terminal and run the "top" command. 
Check what the CPU and memory usage are for the firefox process.  Also 
see if you can tell what they are for the Plasma Workspace process as 
well.  I don't know what the process name would be, but you can press 
shift-m to sort the list by memory usage which should bring them both to 
the top.



I would like to report this as a bug, but I'm not sure which bugzilla to
report it to.

It sounds like there are two issues here.  The first is that Firefox 
gets slow, which would be a Mozilla issue.  You could try closing tabs 
to see if you can find out which site(s) are causing the problem.  The 
second issue is that Plasma Workspace crashes.  That one could be filed 
in the Fedora bugzilla, but first check if there are any related issues 
already filed there.
