Re: unwanted checks for updates.

2018-12-23 Thread home user via users
The issues of the thread appear to be solved as best as can be hoped 
for.  Apparently like Rick Stevens in another thread, I don't like 
automatic updates or automatic checks for updates.  Now, I'm no longer 
being asked for a go-ahead to update things.  So as best as I can 
determine, no automatic updates and checks for updates are happening.


Consider this thread in a "beta" state for a few days to make sure there 
are no problems.  You know how software works: everything works great in 
formal testing, but then use the workstation normally (operationally), 
and f-w-o-o-o-m!  (Do I hear a bunch of list members snickering?!)  If 
there are no problems after a few days, I'll promote this thread to 
SOLVED.  (I will keep watching for further posts.)

Ok, that's clear then.  Edit the boot command from grub and try adding 
"nomodeset single" at the end of the kernel line.  I'm not sure if you 
need to have a root password set to get in.  If you can't get to a 
command prompt, then use "3" instead of "single".  Then you can login as 
a user and sudo to root.  Once you have a root prompt, try "modprobe 
nvidia" and see what happens.

I use Gnome.  I have quite a few KDE apps/tools on this system, I assume 
all by default.  I use KSysGuard routinely in Gnome, and K3b in Gnome 
semi-annually.  I used KDE System Settings in Gnome earlier this month. 
But I see no dnfdragora (or Kdnfdragora).

Re: Nvidia module not loaded; falling back to Nouveau

2018-12-23 Thread Richard Shaw
Better to ask on the RPM Fusion mailing list but the time I had that
problem my video card was no longer supported by the latest Nvidia drivers
so I had to use one of the compatibility packages, nvidia-390xx.

Thanks,
Richard

I don't see why you have the "falling back to Nouveau" in the subject 
since I don't see that in the logs you pasted.  All that log line says 
is that the nvidia-settings application can't talk to the NVidia driver 
for some reason.

Are there any other messages in the log about either nouveau or nvidia?
If you run "lsmod", is the nouveau or nvidia driver loaded?
If you run "lspci -v", what driver is managing the VGA controller?


Thanks for your reply.

Nouveau module is loaded, according to both 'lsmod' and 'lspci'.

Nvidia module not loaded; falling back to Nouveau

Linux osprey 4.19.10-300.fc29.x86_64 #1 SMP Mon Dec 17 15:34:44 UTC 2018

Noticed this message while booting this weekend, although I had thought 
the Nvidia driver was being used.

The fix was 1 things..

1 - mail_location = mbox:~/mail:INBOX=/var/mail/%u

2 - chmod 0600 /var/mail/*

Then I finally started getting my email.  Thought there was a
permissions issue but couldn't nail it down until I started checking
more maillogs in more detail.

Works now though, but thanks.

Re: Using rsync to get the Fedora repositories

I encourage you to use Quick Fedora Mirror instead:
https://pagure.io/quick-fedora-mirror.


From the description:

  A full rsync of fedora-buffet0 can take hours just to receive the file
  list, due to the fact that there are over 11 million files. This has to
  happen for every client, every time they want to update, which is
  murderous on the download servers and worse on the backend NFS server. It
  also slows the propagation of important updates because mirrors simply
  can't poll often.

  By generating a simple database of file and directory timestamps and
  sizes, it becomes easy for the client to determine which files have
  changed since the last mirror run and only mirror those files. This also
  provides enough information to handle files which have been deleted on the
  server and files which are missing on the client. In most situations, it
  also allows hardlinks to be copied as hardlinks instead of being
  downloaded multiple times.

Well, in my /etc/dovecot/conf.d/10-mail.conf

I have mail_location set like this:

mail_location = maildir:~/Maildir

Which stashes mail in my home directory where I recover
it when I gen a new OS since I keep the old home
directory.

Latest kernels

2018-12-23 Thread jarmo
Fedora 29 XFCE4 wm, fresh install

Latest 4.19.9 and 4.19.10 kernels, after update booted into blank
screen, I thought, that it is, because of darkest time here, 5h20min
daylight :) :).
But found somewhere from net solution.
I have laptop HP 15-bw021na, with AMD 4 core processor, AMDGPU.
Had to add into linux cmdline AMDGPU.DC=0, after that booted OK.
Now, something with these "new" kernels is going wrong? because
with 4.19.5 kernel does not need amdgpu.dc=0 command.

So, if someone counter same problem, this might help.

Happy Holidays
