Re: Re: Middle mouse button stopped pasting

2015-06-16 Thread Kevin H. Hobbs
I have also noticed a change to middle mouse button pasting in Fedora 20.

The middle mouse button used to paste into gvim at the position of the
cursor regardless of where I clicked.

Now, all of a sudden, it moves the cursor then inserts text (Yuck!)

I am using fluxbox as my window manager.

What window manager or desktop environment are you using?

The only recent and relevant update I see in /var/log/yum.log is ibus-libs.

Re: Re: Sometimes problems with the visibility of threads in thunderbird

2014-07-09 Thread Kevin H. Hobbs
Oh boy do I ever have this problem.

I hadn't noticed before but since you mentioned threads I've noticed
that what I see is entirely dependent on a thread being collapsed.

If all threads are expanded I can move up and down in the message list
without trouble.

If a thread is collapsed, then moving down to the top of the collapsed
thread or below causes the messages below it to be miss-rendered.

I can move around above the collapsed thread all I want without error.

Swiping the mouse over the miss-rendered threads causes them to be
rendered correctly.

 You need to do both at the same time. Here yum shell is useful as it
 lets you gather a series of yum commands and run them in one batch.
 Try something like
 
 yum shell
 remove perl-5.16.3-245.fc18.x86_64 install perl-autodie run
 and if that works
 exit
 
 you may need to add other commands as well to sort out the
 dependencies.

Wow, Michael, thank you very much for that.

I don't know how I managed not to know about yum shell.

FedUp 18 - 19 Orphans

2013-12-19 Thread Kevin H. Hobbs
I just updated from Fedora 18 to 19 with fedup.

After the update I have many orphaned packages :

# package-cleanup --orphans | wc -l
635

When I examine them I see things like fedora-release, zlib, and such.

They mostly exist alongside their identical fedora 19 versions :

# package-cleanup --orphans | grep libogg
libogg-1.3.0-5.fc18.x86_64
# yum list libogg
Loaded plugins: auto-update-debuginfo, verify
Installed Packages
libogg.x86_64   2:1.3.0-5.fc18   installed
libogg.i686 2:1.3.0-5.fc19   installed
libogg.x86_64   2:1.3.0-5.fc19   installed

Any idea what's going on?

Somewhere in there some some dependency leaves fc18 and starts ripping
out large parts of fc19..

It looks to be perl

# yum remove `package-cleanup --dupes | grep perl | grep fc18`
...
Remove  67 Packages (+32 Dependent packages)...

It looks like I'm going to have to fix these in small batches...

The only bits of perl that I could not clean up seem to be perl and perl

I did :

# rpm -q --provides perl-5.16.3-266.fc19.x86_64  /tmp/p19.txt
# rpm -q --provides perl-5.16.3-245.fc18.x86_64  /tmp/p18.txt

 dracut doesn't copy etc/mdadm.conf into the initramfs image

 
 So IIUC #mdadmconf=no was enough in a previous version for
 mdadm.conf to be copied into the initramfs but you now need
 mdadmconf=yes?


That's my understanding as well.

Much of the discussion in the bug talks about failure to boot.

I can still boot because my /etc/fstab has all UUID's not device names.

My only symptom is that mdadm complains when it tries to monitor the
arrays...

Open MPI problem After F17 - F18 Upgrade

2013-07-18 Thread Kevin H. Hobbs
After I updated my home computer from Fedora 17 to 18 MPI programs
stopped working.

I have a very simple program :

#include stdlib.h
#include stdio.h
#include mpi.h

int main( int argc, char * argv[] )
{

  int rank, size;

  MPI_Init(argc, argv);
  MPI_Comm_rank(MPI_COMM_WORLD, rank);
  MPI_Comm_size(MPI_COMM_WORLD, size);

  printf(my rank is %i of %i\n, rank, size );

  MPI_Finalize();

  return EXIT_SUCCESS;
}

I can compile it with :

  mpicc -g -o mpi_simple mpi_simple.c

but when I run it with :

  mpirun -n 1 ./mpi_simple

I get :

[murron.hobbs-hancock:05668] [[55801,1],0] ORTE_ERROR_LOG: Error in file

  PID:5668

mpirun has exited due to process rank 0 with PID 5668 on
node murron.hobbs-hancock exiting improperly. There are two reasons this
could occur:

1. this process did not call init before exiting, but others in
the job did. This can cause a job to hang indefinitely while it waits
for all processes to call init. By rule, if one process calls init,
then ALL processes must call init prior to termination.

2. this process called init, but exited without calling finalize.
By rule, all processes that call init MUST call finalize prior to
exiting or it will be considered an abnormal termination

This may have caused other processes in the application to be
terminated by signals sent by mpirun (as reported here).
--

I'm actually able to run the generated executable on another computer
just fine.

I tried using gdb to step through util/nidmap.c from 148 but whatever
goes wrong is too far away for me to find it.

Does anybody have any clue where I should look?

Re: Re: Screen stopped blanking

I'm having a similar problem but with one monitor on a dual monitor
workstation:

http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/users/2012-August/423737.html

 I have a Dell Latitude E6410 with an nVidia graphics card, using the
 nouveau driver and the GNOME desktop on F17.

I also use the nouveau driver but with KDE on F17

 
 Recently, the laptop screen stopped blanking when idle in X mode.

Mine never blanked in F17 but blanking worked in previous fedora
releases. Do you know _how_ recently it stopped blanking?

  I've
 modified the screen-blank settings, to no avail.

Same here.

  If I switch to a
 virtual console, blanking works fine. 

Hmm, I get the same behavior in a virtual console as I do in X, that is
on monitor suspended one remains on. Maybe our problems are different.

 Any hints what might have changed or what I might look for to get it
 working again?

What happens when you do :

xset dpms force off

When I do it my monitors appear to shut down but then one turns back on.

Yes, yes they are.

I should have piped it to less.

The specific solution was at the top where it's the first thing
the reader sees in a pager like less or in the GUI selinux
debugger. This is the correct placement.

I missed the specific solution the first time I read the message

my terminal output where I saw first a description of how to let
httpd make arbitrary connections (bad), followed by some very
general information about the selinux alert itself, where I
stopped reading.

Google was _very_ unhelpful on the subject of selinux, ganglia,
and httpd. All I got were recommendations for some cluster suit
that selinux had to be disabled entirely (it does not.)

Dear Google,

The command :

  semanage port -a -t http_port_t -p tcp 8652

allows httpd to talk to ganglia's gmetad despite the selinux
restriction on httpd making arbitrary connections.

I misspelled gmetad in the earlier message.

selinux blocking ganglia-web

2012-09-28 Thread Kevin H. Hobbs
I just replaced the machine that runs ganglia.

httpd is being prevented from connecting to gmond.

All that is displayed is:

There was an error collecting ganglia data (127.0.0.1:8652): fsockopen
error: Permission denied

There's a message in /var/log/messages that blames selinux every time I
load the page.

and sealert says that I could change the behavior by setting
allow_ypbind or httpd_can_network_connect

allow httpd_t unreserved_port_t:tcp_socket name_connect;

I can see how letting httpd make arbitrary connections is bad, so how
can I punch a hole in the rule just for ganglia?

it also suggested a very specific fix at the top of it's output way off
my terminal :

allowed httpd to connect to gmeted.

2nd monitor won't powersave

I used to have Fedora 14 installed with nvidia drivers and both monitors
would enter a power saving mode.

I installed Fedora 17 with the minimal setting and then added KDE and
told systemd to use the graphical login.

Re: 3w-9xxx f14-f15 breakage

2011-12-06 Thread Kevin H. Hobbs
 Since I have the messages up again I see something about IRQ 35 rerouted
 to legacy IRQ 19

Michael, what does /proc/interrupts say for you?

I may be obsessing a bit but this IRQ rerouting is very interesting to me.

In the f15 dracut shell I took a look at /proc/interrupts.

Rerouting IRQ 35 to 19 put the 3ware card on an interrupt with a bunch
of other things.

In the f14 kernel IRQ 35 is not rerouted to IRQ 19 and the card works fine.

 /etc/modprobe.d/3w-9xxx.conf:options 3w-9xxx use_msi=1

I created this file to add this option, reran dracut, and the f15 kernel
boots right up.

The 3ware controller gets it's own interrupt and everything.

3w-9xxx f14-f15 breakage

2011-12-05 Thread Kevin H. Hobbs
I just updated (with yum) our backup server from Fedora 14 to Fedora 15.

This server has a 3ware 9550SX-8LP RAID card.

When I boot with the new kernel-2.6.41.1-1.fc15.x86_64 the machine
complains that it can not find the root device by id and drops to a
dracut shell.

It then prints out warnings about the RAID card over and over in a slow
(20s or so) loop where the RAID card is reset once per loop.

I rebooted with the old kernel-2.6.35.14-106.fc14.x86_64 and Fedora
comes right up.

The RAID controller has the newest firmware FE9X 3.08.00.029

The RAID controller has no schedule limiting when it can do a verify and
it has been doing one about once a day. I've restarted the machine
several times to track down this problem and so it has always been
trying a verify when it booted the new kernel.

Does anybody have any ideas?

2011-12-05 Thread Kevin H. Hobbs
 Do you have the UUID contents of /etc/fstab for your root partition 
 matching /boot/grub/grub.conf ?

fstab :

UUID=51b92885-d3c8-4f81-99f3-d4b3b211fe71 /
ext3defaults1 1


grub.conf :

kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.41.1-1.fc15.x86_64 ro
root=UUID=51b92885-d3c8-4f81-99f3-d4b3b211fe71
SYSFONT=latarcyrheb-sun16 LANG=en_US.UTF-8 KEYTABLE=us

so yes they match.

Re: 3w-9xxx f14-f15 breakage

2011-12-05 Thread Kevin H. Hobbs
 My second, probably bad, guess is that the 
 initramfs has not been built correctly. I used preupgrade to upgrade my 
 box so it was running on an F15 kernel when it installed the F15 kernel.
 
 Can you try to boot the system off a Live image (Usb stick will work) 
 and see if that detects your root partition?

Yup the install DVD could mount the array.

While in the rescue environment I removed and reinstalled the f15 kernel.

The same thing happened when I rebooted.

Since I have the messages up again I see something about IRQ 35 rerouted
to legacy IRQ 19

before dacut drops me to a shell.

The first warning I get is:
WARNING: (0x06:0x002c) command (0x12) timed out resseting card

The f14 kernel does not do the IRQ rerouting or so says dmesg.

 If the DVD boots and you can modify the array it must be something in 
 /etc. Do you have any custom modprobe configuration files?
 $ grep 3w-9xxx /etc/modprobe.d/*
 

just :

$ grep 3w- /etc/modprobe.d/*
/etc/modprobe.d/local.conf:alias scsi_hostadapter 3w-9xxx

and :

$ grep scsi_hostadapter /etc/modprobe.d/*
/etc/modprobe.d/dist.conf:install scsi_hostadapter /bin/true
/etc/modprobe.d/local.conf:alias scsi_hostadapter 3w-9xxx
/etc/modprobe.d/local.conf:alias scsi_hostadapter1 ata_piix

 Otherwise, I'm pretty much out of ideas.

Thanks for trying.

e1000e startup problem

2011-09-30 Thread Kevin H. Hobbs
I have a fedora 14 server here who's ethernet interface seems to take
just a bit too long to establish a link.

Whenever it starts it is inaccessible over the network, which is a real
pain for a server. I have to go over with the monitor and keyboard,
crawl under the desk...

When I try to restart the network interface with service network
restart I get something that looks like :

Bringing up interface eth0:
Determining IP information for eth0...[big number] ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP):
eth0: link is not ready.
  [FAILED]
[big number] e1000e: eth0 NIC Link is Up 1000 Mbps Full Duplex...

Which sounds to me like a timeout was just a bit too short.

If I try a few times in a row suddenly it works.

Selinux blocking denyhosts

2011-05-29 Thread Kevin H. Hobbs
I tried to install and enable denyhosts on a fresh Fedora 15 install.

I did systemctl enable denyhosts.service. systemctl ran chkconfig.

When I started the service I got this in /var/log/messages:

May 29 07:49:33 murron setroubleshoot: SELinux is preventing 
/usr/bin/python from read access on the lnk_file /var/lock. For 
complete SELinux messages. run sealert -l 
fc8b6153-e359-409b-9310-9f0f3b3a20c7

sealert says:

SELinux is preventing /usr/bin/python from read access on the 
lnk_file /var/lock.

*  Plugin restorecon (94.8 confidence) suggests  
*

If you want to fix the label.
/var/lock default label should be var_lock_t.
Then you can run restorecon.
Do
# /sbin/restorecon -v /var/lock

*  Plugin catchall_labels (5.21 confidence) suggests  


If you want to allow python to have read access on the lock lnk_file
Then you need to change the label on /var/lock
Do
# semanage fcontext -a -t FILE_TYPE '/var/lock'
where FILE_TYPE is one of the following: var_run_t, var_lock_t, 
bin_t, cert_t, usr_t, device_t, devlog_t, locale_t, abrt_t, 
etc_t, lib_t, proc_t, root_t, device_t, ld_so_t, proc_t, 
denyhosts_t, textrel_shlib_t, rpm_script_tmp_t, var_run_t.
Then execute:
restorecon -v '/var/lock'


*  Plugin catchall (1.44 confidence) suggests  
***

If you believe that python should be allowed read access on the 
lock lnk_file by default.
Then you should report this as a bug.
You can generate a local policy module to allow this access.
Do
allow this access for now by executing:
# grep denyhosts.py /var/log/audit/audit.log | audit2allow -M mypol
# semodule -i mypol.pp

KDE Laggy in Fresh F15

2011-05-28 Thread Kevin H. Hobbs
I just did a fresh install of Fedora 15 x86_64 with KDE.

KDE is mostly unusable in Fedora 15 while it was fine in Fedora 
14 (with nvidia driver).

The display seems to freeze for a few seconds every few seconds.

Menus take seconds to open.

Windows leave garbage on the display when they are moved or re-sized.

New windows are often filled with garbage before they are drawn 
all the way.

KDE automatically disables the desktop effects.

I installed and switched to fluxbox and everything is snappy.

Without all of the KDE decoration firefox went from unusable to 
normal under fluxbox.

I have not installed any software not in Fedora's repository (no 
nvidia drivers).

System details that might be usefull:

lenovo S10
Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Quad CPUQ6600  @ 2.40GHz
4 GB of DDR3 1067 MHz RAM
nVidia Corporation G86 [Quadro NVS 290]
nouveau driver is loaded and in /etc/X11/xorg.conf
Screen spans two 1600x1200 CRTs

Re: KDE Laggy in Fresh F15

2011-05-28 Thread Kevin H. Hobbs

 From: Clemens Eissererlinuxhi...@gmail.com

   I have not installed any software not in Fedora's repository (no
   nvidia drivers).
 Yeah, I guess you are hitting nouveau bugs here.
 So why don't you simply install the nvidia drivers?

 Do the problems also happen with desktop effects disabled?

 - Clemens

I'd like to at least try to isolate the bugs and report them first.

If everybody immediately switches to the proprietary drivers then 
the nouveau drivers and/or KDE will never improve.

I'll eventually try the nvidia drivers so I can be sure it's a 
KDE/nouveau issue but first if anybody can say try this mesa 
patch, strace this or gdb that I'll do it.

KDE automatically disables desktop effects. I can not disable 
them because I can not enable them... Well I could also disable 
the performance checks but I don't want KDE any slower.

Re: F14 to F15 Did not go well

Hmm, I did the whole:

rpmconf -a

thing prior to doing the DVD update.

I now realize that my post upgrade system was stopping during the

F14 to F15 Did not go well

2011-05-25 Thread Kevin H. Hobbs
I just tried to upgrade Fedora 14 x86_64 to Fedora 15 x86_64 using the DVD.

It did not go well.

I couldn't figure out what went wrong so I did a fresh install.

The system is a lenovo S10 with two drives and software RAID 1
partitions for /, /boot, and /home all ext3, and swap.

There were ... contaminants ( nvidia drivers from rpmfusion repo, flash
from adobe repo, and chrome from google-chrome repo).

During init something bad flashed by but I couldn't catch it and I was
presented with the Control-D or root password for maintenance prompt.

There was nothing useful in /var/log/messages, /var/log/boot.log,
/root/upgrade.log, /root/upgrade.log.syslog, nor dmesg

I figured I'd try a yum update after chrooting into the system from
the DVD in rescue mode but yum complained that it couldn't open the RPM
database. I believe it mentioned corruption but I was still on my first
coffee.

It all could be a fluke or it could point to a pattern so I'll try and
provide more details if anybody has questions.

OpenMPI broken on host of virtual machine

2011-05-05 Thread Kevin H. Hobbs
Our F13 cluster is primarily used to run OpenMPI applications.

I installed a virtual guest using the instructions at :

http://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/Fedora/13/html/Virtualization_Guide/part-Virtualization-Installation.html

to do some development builds of a package I use and now OpenMPI jobs
fail to start with :

[bubbles.hooperlab][[55228,1],0][btl_tcp_endpoint.c:638:mca_btl_tcp_endpoint_complete_connect]
connect() to 192.168.122.1 failed: Connection refused (111)

on node 0, bubbles

192.168.122.1 belongs to virbr0 on bubbles

bubbles and all of the compute nodes are on 192.168.0.*

If I take down virbr0 on bubbles everything works.

Where might things be going wrong?

Re: Talloc

2010-08-19 Thread Kevin H. Hobbs
 Can you explain what trouble the linker had with the installed talloc?

I run the nightly tests of VTK and ParaView built with nightly Mesa
(software rendering).

It's sort of an early warning system that tells me if there will be
problems with the next versions.

Mesa git just merged it's glsl2 branch which pulled in a talloc requirement.

Mesa builds fine if have libtalloc-devel installed but then VTK fails to
build the tests with :

/home/kevin/mesa/lib/libGL.so: undefined reference to `talloc_strdup'
/home/kevin/mesa/lib/libGL.so: undefined reference to `_talloc_array'
/home/kevin/mesa/lib/libGL.so: undefined reference to `_talloc_free'
and on and on...

Maybe mesa isn't adding -ltalloc

All of this building from git/cvs repositories has me actually checking
that nm will show me the symbols and I've never encountered a library
for which nm said there were no symbols.
