Generally, you'll see that described in technical specifications as 
"DisplayPort over USB-C" or "USB-C with DisplayPort".  ASUS's site 
describes that port as "Type-C USB 3.0 (USB 3.1 Gen 1)".  I'm not 
saying it doesn't support DisplayPort, but is there a reason that you 
think it does?


As far as I can tell, the kernel logs you see just indicate that it's 
detecting a USB hub in the monitor, not that the display itself is 
supported.



Aah, makes sense. Thanks for the info, wishful thinking on my part...

Hi people.

Start button>>Windows Administrative Tools>>Disk Management

will resize your partitions safely.  Last time I used it, it did not 
allow a choice of size but did half the drive.  Windows sometimes gets 
problems with gparted. Usually fixed by a disk scan in Windows but an 
extra annoyance. A live fedora CD will let you adjust the new partition 
to your liking and format the new partition for Fedora. If you use 
multiple linux partitions they can be set from the live CD. Others will 
have to give you all the tricks to installing grub2 for gpt disks and uefi.

Yes, it seems that in F31 there is no longer a scala module.  That is what 
created the conflict.

Re: package scala-2.10.6-16.fc31.noarch is filtered out by modular filtering

2020-01-06 Thread Norman Gaywood 
Thanks for the hint Ed!

So it seems it's enough to:
dnf module disable scala   # disable the scala module
dnf install scala

And scala-2.10.6-16.fc31.noarch is installed!
So disabling the the scala module will allow you to install scala!

I suppose the question is, what are your settings for the SMTP server in 
Thunderbird.

Does it follow this?

I'm not clear on your actual environment.

Are you connecting a USB-C cable directly from the Laptop's USB-C connector to 
the USB-C connector on
a Monitor? 

What is the Make/Model of the Monitor?

I install new releases of fedora by installing in
a virtual machine, then rsyncing that to a real partition
and editing fstab, grub.cfg, and the grub environment
file to change all the UUIDs and such to the ones of the
new partition. I've got a stand-alone tiny partition with
grub installed which I use the configfile option to
boot the real system. This is all just using a ms-dos
style bios.

A windows box will almost certainly require UEFI, so I'm
not sure how much more complicated it would be to get that working.

Re: ASUS VivoBook Pro N705FD Notebook - Fedora 31 - usb-c port cannot drive a second/third monitor

2020-01-06 Thread Roger Heflin 
I am going to guess that the usb bus in question does not have enough
allocated bandwidth.   On usb2 that was a big problem that limited the
number of web-cams usually to 1 per actual usb bus.  I would suspect
that removing the SSD may let the video device work.

use the gui tool usbview and it should let you drill down and will
tell you what other devices on the bus have allocated (assuming
usb3/usb-c acts like usb2 for bandwidth), and make sure the SSD is not
allocating the BW.

USB-C device?  Searching on the USB id suggests that it's probably 
the latter.


Not sure, how can I tell? If it's the latter do I need any added 
packages for it to work?


Do you have a link to the device?  I'm a little fuzzy on how these 
things work, but I believe that there has to be support by the 
graphics card and driver to route the video output through the port.



I do not, see my journalctl output below

Upgrade of F30 to F31 Appears to Have not Worked Correctly

2020-01-06 Thread Stephen Morris 

Hi,
    I have just upgraded to F31 from F30 using dnf system-upgrade 
download --releasever=31. Before I did the upgrade I updated F30 to the 
latest maintenance level.
    When I booted into Gnome on F31 there was no activities menu to be 
able to launch any application, the only way I could launch applications 
(if I knew the application command) was to use alt-f2.
    In F30 I was using dash-to-dock but in the F31 upgrade that failed 
to start. I did find an entry on the net saying that V66 of dash-to-dock 
had an issue in F31 with kde (plasma) but no reference to issues with 
Gnome. I was able to run Gnome-tweaks, see that it was flagging that it 
couldn't start dash-to-dock, the dash-to-dock settings were saying that 
it was V66, so I used gnome tweaks to uninstall it. I then used 
dnfdragora to install V67 of dash-to-dock when confirmed the V67 was 
installed and V66 wasn't, but when I went back into gnome-tweeks it was 
still saying that it was trying to start V66 of dash-to-dock. I 
eventually found that I had to remove all the gnome-shell extension 
settings in my home path, use dnf to uninstall dash-to-dock V67 and 
reinstall it for Gnome-tweaks to show that it was successfully able to 
start dash-to-dock V67. Also after doing this when I launched firefox it 
immediately asked me asked me if I wanted to update all my extensions 
from upstream except for dash-to-dock, which I did and that then 
activated all the extensions even though at update they weren't active.
    When I launch firefox V73.0a1 it displays with two windows 
overlapping each other displaying the same contents, forms being 
displayed on the screen are not displaying correctly in terms of when 
input is entered into text boxes the input is actually being displayed 
below the text boxes. Also the address bar keeps flashing on and off 
because the display of the web page being accessed is intermittently 
overlaying the address bar, consequently I can't actually select any 
menus displayed on the web page. Just for interest Thunderbird V73.0a1 
doesn't seem to exhibit these issues. If I run the version of firefox 
from the repositories it exhibits the same overlay issues as well.
    When I run Gnome-terminal it exhibits the dual window overlay issue 
when maximised. If I run Gnome-terminal unmaximised it doesn't exhibit 
the issue, but if I manually expand the size of the gnome-terminal 
window it exhibits the overlay issue as soon as I type anything into the 
window.
    I tried reinstalling Gnome by re-installing the 'Gnome Desktop 
Environment' group from dnf but that did not make any difference.

    Does anyone have any ideas what the issue might be?
    If I run dnf system-upgrade download --releasever=30 will that 
downgrade me to a fully working version of F30 as it was before I did 
the F31 upgrade?


regards,
Steve

You're using LVM.  I assume the fstab is fine, I have very little 
experience with LVM, I'll leave it to someone else to say if there's any 
other config that will need tweaking.  I believe if you free up more 
space than necessary, you should be able to resize the volumes to give 
Fedora more space.


How does one set up grub for dual boot after the fact, if you don't do a 
minimal install ?  Or is that what you are suggesting ?


You didn't answer the critical question about EFI on both systems.

How big is the old hard drive and how big is the new one?  If you can 
resize Windows to leave enough space, you could directly copy the 
partitions from one drive to the other.  Otherwise, you can create the 
necessary partitions on the new drive and rsync (with the right flags)

Thunderbird and MS Office365?

2020-01-06 Thread S.Bob 

All;


I have a new gig, the client runs office365 (ugh). I did the new email 
account in thunderbird, used "outlook.office365.com" as the incoming 
IMAP server and I can receive emails but not send.



I used another account for sending (SMTP), since "outlook.office365.com" 
did not work but now all my sent items go to ther junk mail (ultimately 
coming from another domain), and I also find that if I set it to 
automatically bcc my office635 email for sent messages, they dont show 
up either...



Thoughts? Is there a better way to interact with office365?


Thanks in advance

Re: Transfer my current Linux install to a new dual boot drive with Windows ?

2020-01-06 Thread linux guy 
I want to keep my old computer fully functional as a backup.  Thus I'd like
to leave the existing drive in it.

It would be super easy to clone my existing drive with dd if it wasn't for
the Windows install.   Do a minimal install, dd the Linux stuff and then
somehow fix the boot entries ?

not the answer of your question, but maybe a hint:

Why not to screw the old Fedora disk into the new workstation and to 
adjust the boot order in the bios ?


and then boot the windows raw (!) disk via Virtual Box or maybe KVM.

2020-01-06 Thread linux guy 
Thanks for the reply.

Rsync everything ?  *Everything* ?  Would that work ?

I was thinking of doing a minimal install and then obtaining the list of
packages from my old workstation and running dnf with that list.  Then
copying all the user data over from /home.  I'd still lose some settings
though.

Probably worth taking this with a large grain of salt,
but I'd consider doing a minimal new fedora install
on the new box, then rsync old fedora over the top
of it. (But I don't even know how to get it to keep
windows when installing, so you can see how expert
my advice it likely to be :-).

Re: Strange that no Fedora 30 updates since Dec 24?

2020-01-06 Thread linux guy 
Lol.  Too funny to see this post because I was wondering too and thought of
writing the same post.

Fedora rules !  Big thanks to all the people that make Fedora what it is.
Your efforts are greatly appreciated.

Re: ASUS VivoBook Pro N705FD Notebook - Fedora 31 - usb-c port cannot drive a second/third monitor

Are you using the NVidia proprietary drivers?

When I plug an external monitor into the USB-C port I usually see 
something like this via dmesg:


Is this a USB display device or is it a thunderbolt/displayport over 
USB-C device?  Searching on the USB id suggests that it's probably the 
latter.

Also here is the output of an lspci:

$ lspci


"lsusb" would be more useful.  Also, "lsusb -t" and "lsusb -v" (but just 
the relevant parts for that one).

And finally, "xrandr" with the device plugged in.
