Re: USBGuard integration next to encryption?
What does USBGuard have to do with encryption? As far as I know, USBGuard is used for blocking unwanted USB devices. You can have disk encryption with or without USBGuard (or the other way round). You can install usbguard on workstation if you want. It is a bit tricky to setup though,as you can lock yourself out of your system quite easily. ___ users mailing list -- users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to users-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/users@lists.fedoraproject.org Do not reply to spam, report it: https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure/new_issue

Re: audio fails under sudo
You really really really shouldn't play audio/video under sudo (or browse the web or whatever). Please don't. sudo (as the root account) is meant to be used for system administration only, i.e. stuff like `dnf install blabla` or `vim /etc/[some config file]`. For almost everything else, you really shouldn't use sudo/root. sudo/root is not designed for this ind will break at any point. Also, you are massively increasing the attack surface on your computer. ___ users mailing list -- users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to users-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/users@lists.fedoraproject.org Do not reply to spam, report it: https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure/new_issue

How about contributing the info they need on the upstream bug (see link above) to fix this issue? Free software can only evolve if people contribute, this includes useful information for fixing bugs. ___ users mailing list -- users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to users-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org

Re: Gnome shell high memory usage
This is a common issue with gnome-shell. 1. Can you try disabling any gnome-shell extension and see whether it is still present? If no, then one of your extensions is to blame. There is no easy way except manually enabling/disabling them and having a look at gnome-shell's RAM usage. 2. If you are sure it is an issue in gnome-shell, you're probably running into https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=642652. ___ users mailing list -- users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to users-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org
Re: yumex-dnf font size
Ok, then go to the KDE system settings and change either your desktop font size or the Gtk+ font size under "Application appearance". -- users mailing list users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/admin/lists/users@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?

Re: yumex-dnf font size
Same as for all gnome (Gtk+ 3.x) applications: use gnome-tweak-tool and change the font size or the font scaling factor. -- users mailing list users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/admin/lists/users@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?

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. You won't need flash on many sites anyway. You probably should disable search suggestions too, because due to correlations on your typing frequency you could be tracked even through "anonymizing" search engines like DuckDuckGo. The Firefox-inside-VM sounds like [Qubes OS](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Qubes_OS) to me, maybe that's of interest for you. Since you're not saving any history at all, why don't you use the tor browser? It has some more very nice anti-tracking features btw. -- users mailing list users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/admin/lists/users@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
