how to disable tmpfs
While lurking on the list, I learned in a thread Cannot make a copy of video DVD with k3b that the way fedora is configured, tmpfs will consume 50% of my RAM and mount itself in /tmp. If you have gobs of RAM I suppose you'd never miss it unless you are doing serious video editing or something like that. My system has only 3GB of RAM and it does appear that 1.5GB is now a tmpfs. I really don't have that to spare. I do have a 5GB /tmp partition on a physical HDD that I thought I had been using for years. Only now did I learn that I'm not. Rick Stevens suggested systemctl mask tmp.mount as a fix. I tried that and then I couldn't log in. It turns out, that command will make my / partition read only. I googled it and discovered that someone else had the same problem. There was no answer to that thread. You can fix this by mount -o remount,rw / and then issuing systemctl unmask tmp.mount and rebooting again. I tried editing the entry in /etc/fstab from UUID=996d5f64-0745-4af7-9260-559d5c66c7bd /ext4defaults 1 1 to UUID=996d5f64-0745-4af7-9260-559d5c66c7bd /ext4defaults,rw1 1 but that still didn't mount / rw. So, how do I turn off fedora's tmpfs forever so I can use my physical /tmp partition and not consume all my valuable RAM? Or stated otherwise, how do I disable tmpfs AND keep / read-write?

If you have gobs of RAM I suppose you'd never miss it unless you are doing serious video editing or something like that. There's a lot of misinformation about this. The tmpfs does _not_ consume 50% of [your] RAM. The maximum size of a tmpfs defaults to 50% of RAM, but it only uses space as needed. Also, space used in tmpfs can be pushed to swap (so if you run low on RAM, files in tmpfs will be pushed out to swap on disk to free up RAM for programs). -- Chris Adams li...@cmadams.net -- Thanks for clearing that up Chris. It still doesn't seem like an ideal way to handle /tmp when I have a perfectly good partition and swapping is a major performance killer. I'd rather disk access wait time is caused by accessing /tmp when I need to rather than swapping tmpfs in and out for a program.

Re: Does anybody know what package this is in....?
/var/log/yum.log will show you what packages were updated. 2013/7/10 Bill Oliver ven...@billoblog.com I just had the oddest thing happen to me. I performed a multipackage update on F19. I don't remember what packages, it was just one of those notifications of You have 18 updates pending and I hit Update. When I rebooted my box, my alsa system was dead. No little mixer icon in the system tray (I am running KDE), no sound, no nothing. Alsamixer ncurses program was still there, but changing levels didn't change the (nonexistent) sound. I brought up Apper (the KDE software manager) and it indicated that the alsa-firmware, alsa-lib, and alsa-tools were not installed -- though they had been before. I tried to install them, but nothing happened. So, then I went to the cli and tried yum install alsa-firmware, and it came back with the statement that it was already installed! So, I *reinstalled* them using yum reinstall. At that point things started working again. But... I still can't get the little mixer icon on my system tray. It's not an option when I try to configure it, though all the rest are still there. I can add the ALSA volume control plasmoid, and it works, but I'd like the little icon in the system tray. So, I have two questions: 1) Anybody know why an update would kill the sound system? 2) What package might I need to reinstall to get that little widget in the system tray?

Asunto: Why do e.g. ssh sessions hang when I try to log out?
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-
Hash: SHA1
I've noticed this a lot recently. I want to run an X app off another
machine, say thunderbird. So I do ssh -X user@host to log in and run
thunderbird from the command line. When I get done, I exit thunderbird
and get a command prompt back. Then when I hit ctrl-D or type exit
or whatever, the session hangs. When I hit ctrl-C it finally exits.
As a test, I just did this against my local F16 machine, and I tried
to log out after using thunderbird as a different user.
I see that I have these processes running as my user:
tcameron 5615 0.0 0.0 22356 764 ? S 14:10 0:00
dbus-launch --autolaunch 812e3e28dfa6439dcc2013e

tcameron 5619 0.0 0.0 136548 2744 ? S 14:10 0:00
/usr/libexec/gconfd-2
So it appears that dbus is not letting me log out. This is merely an
annoyance, so I'm not sure it's really a bug. Even if it is, I'm not
sure it's worth reporting as a bug.
Anyone else notice this?

If yes then check whether they are set to sync selections. If you want the selection to stay separate from the regular desktop clipboard, turn of sync'ing of selections. Thanks Dennis -- Suvayu Open source is the future. It sets us free. -- users mailing list It seems all I have installed is Glipper. I can see it in gconf-editor. There doesn't seem to be anything else installed or running. xclipper is installed but does not show up in ps aux | grep clip if I try to start xclipper via the command line I get an error that it is already running but I see via google that it really isn't running it's just a strange way it interacts (or doesn't) with Gnome. Do you have any specific ideas what I can check in Glipper? I looked in ~/.gconf/apps/glipper and found nothing interesting. Thanks again. I have determined that the problem is the touchpad buttons on my laptop. I would click both buttons with one finger and it would be seen as both buttons being pressed. Well, that isn't happening now. I need to press both buttons with both fingers and it works as expected. So it's a simple Hardware issue.

Re: F12: Latest Two Kernels Won't Boot
When a few weeks ago the new auto-updated kernel would not boot, used an older kernel, waiting for the next update. This was today, and now the two latest kernels don't work. Booting stops after the Fedora logo fills up white, after which it says (copying manually from screen, whitespaces probably not correct): ERROR: asr: wrong # of devices in RAID set asr_BOOT [1/2] on /dev/sda No root device found Boot has failed, sleeping forever The third oldest kernel apparently boots fine. Interestingly, Google finds nothing for ERROR: asr: wrong. If you add the following entry to your grub.conf, can you boot from it? begin title Fedora Test (2.6.31.12-174.2.3 with 2.6.31.6-162 initramfs) root (hd0,0) kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.31.12-174.2.3.fc12.i686 ro root=UUID=7dc291fd-739e-4280-8196-c906e8b6ea00 rhgb quiet SYSFONT=latarcyrheb-sun16 LANG=en_US.UTF-8 KEYTABLE=us initrd /initramfs-2.6.31.6-162.fc12.i686.img /end Yes, that one actually booted! Does that provide any insight? It means that the initramfs files of the new kernels are not loading dmraid either because the dmraid module is not being loaded, dmraid -ay is not being run or both. Do you have any dracut and/or dmraid errors in /var/log/messages or /var/log/boot.log Is there a dmraid directory or module in /usr/share/dracut/modules.d -- You probably already know this but change in /etc/yum.conf installonly_limit=3 to a higher value, I have mine set to 5. This means the next kernel update you get won't erase your only working kernel. Dennis Kaptain Encuentra las mejores recetas en Yahoo!
