After getting this many times, I finally figured out I need to
manually run /etc/cron.daily/google-chrome to get new keys
(the install from the google rpm sets this up, but doesn't
always get run in time for the next update to work).

Re: dmesg suddenly fails when run as normal user on FC39

Hi-

 does not happen on FC38, or any prior RedHat/Fedora version since 
forever.


   dmesg
   dmesg: read kernel buffer failed: Operation not permitted

 Userspace scripts (such as used to read pics from cameras & sdcards) 
and many progs often use dmesg to detect or identify things like 
startup probe info, USB devs, partition numbers etc.


 I worked around this by setting the suid bit of `which dmesg`, but it 
would be rude to force everybody to manually do this as part of 
post-install cleanup.


 Hopefully an unintended side-effect and not a new "feature" that 
wasn't thought through completely.  A web-search suggests 
debian/ubuntu may have been doing this for awhile- but we really don't 
need to be just like them...    ;)

I don't think so.  I've upgraded Fedora installs many times, and 
watched the kernels from the previous version gradually vanish from 
GRUB as new ones get installed.

Is there anything in the logs on the local system after reboot, or on

This sounds like a null pointer is being accessed.  Because it doesn't
happen on 6.0.15, it might be a bug in the kernel.  But I couldn't find
any bugs open on the redhat bugzilla, so it seems unlikely.


I have the same behavior with a cifs mount to a fritz box (AVM router).
Also introduced with 6.0.16.

mount options is my case are

mount -o 
nounix,noserverino,uid=1501,gid=15010,file_mode=0640,dir_mode=0750,credentials=/home/ulf/.smb.fritz,vers=3 
//fritz.box/FRITZ.NAS /mnt


and there is nothing in the journal.

Best regards
Ulf



FWIW
The problem that I observed and reported here appears to be fixed with 
the recent kernel update to: 6.0.18-200.fc36.x86_64

And that triggers my memory of recent discussions on this list of
kernel/cifs issues ;-)  Thank you!


FWIW, I started another thread on this list that I think is related.
With this kernel (and the one before (6.0.16-200) the machine completely 
freezes when I mount a particular CIFS mount.

Requires power switch to shut down.
However I have another CIFS mount (host OS unknown) that is ok.
The CIFS mount that causes the freeze up is on a RHEL 7.9 host.

Re: gnome: display of battery charge as a percent

On 7/7/22 12:12, D. Hugh Redelmeier wrote:

On a notebook, gnome displays the state of the battery at the right end of
the top bar of the screen.

I find that a percentage of full charge is a clearer way to present this
data.

It used to be an option in the gnome Tweaks tool, under "top bar".  This
seems to be gone in Fedora 36.  You can get use this shell command:

   gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.interface show-battery-percentage true

This seems like useful functionality.
- why not make it the default?
- why remove it from tweaks?
- why make it so hard to discover?

I understand that gnome folks like to simplify things, but surely "tweaks"
is a great place to stuff useful options that are not important enough to
put in the main (simple) settings mechanism.


FWIW
I did a clean install of F36/Gnome.
On the right end of the top bar: battery percent text next to a picture 
of a battery indicating the same and whether it is being charged.

Quite nice

No.
I have a Thinkpad X240 with a Mini Display Port. The external monitor is
recognized reliably whether it is plugged in at boot time or plugged in
after the pc is up and running.

Well, not so good.  It only did it once even though bluetoothctl still
reports it as trusted.

Here's progress:
Use bluetoothctl and set "trust" on for the speaker device.
After the next re-boot the device connected when powered on just like
before.  (I just didn't know about the existence of bluetoothctl)

Thanks for responding.

I don't see any Advanced Settings offer via the Gnome desktop and no
mention of BT in the tweak tool.  I'll hunt around.

fedora 23 bluetooth connection

2016-07-25 Thread Roger Wells

Something changed (although not fatally):
I use Bluetooth speakers quite often.
Back in F22 or so after pairing the device merely turning it on caused
Fedora to connect to it.
Several months ago, now on F23,  (not sure when this problem appeared)
that changed and after turning the speaker on, I have to go into
Bluetooth Settings where the device appears as "Disconnected", select it
and activate the "Connection" switch several times and it will
eventually connect and be available for selection in the "Sound
Settings" after which it works fine.
Is there a path back? 

The setup is up to date Fedora 23 using Gnome 3.18.1-1.fc23.x86_64
TIA,

FWIW, again
I believe this was mentioned early in this thread but
For a while, 10 minutes or so, after boot up and login the switching to
tty consoles and back works as it should.  I ran and exited Thunderbird,
Firefox, Terminals and such during which I switched to a tty console and
then back.  Now I can get a console login but have no key board.
Switching back is hard because there is no visible mouse but eventually
I can get to highlight the user selection and log back in.

FWIW, I've been using Cygwin ssh/pki for years with no surprises.
You may not want all of Cygwin but from what I've seen it does work.
Windows versions have been XP, 7, and now 10 (64bit)
Cygwin versions have been both 32bit & 64bit.
Current Cygwin setup is:
CYGWIN_NT-10.0 rwells-x220 2.4.1(0.293/5/3) 2016-01-24 11:26 x86_64 Cygwin
on Windows 10pro, 64 bit

Jarmo,

I also just upgraded from F22 to F23.
My current audacity, audacity-2.1.1-1.fc23.x86_64, seems to be working fine.

HTH,

FWIW
on my gnome desktop, F22,
uname -a:Linux rwells-x240 4.1.7-200.fc22.x86_64 #1 SMP Mon Sep 14
20:19:24 UTC 2015 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

xdg-settings get default-web-browser
gives
google-chrome.desktop

but clicking a link in Thunderbird brings up firefox

and yes, chrome is installed as well

 Now appears fixed in kernel 4.1.4-200, which dnf brought me yesterday.

Yes, this seems to have fixed it, mostly.
At least here (Lenovo x240) it still won't suspend on lid close with an
second/external monitor attached.
The power switch for about one second option does suspend as expected
with the second monitor.
We'll get there.

Yes I have.  The machine is Lenovo Thinkpad x240.
I find that sometimes it works as expected, rarely.
Sometimes suspend will kick in after several minutes and sometimes
it never does.
Also uncommenting the HandleLidSwitch=suspend line in
/etc/systemd/logind.conf
had no effect.

Pressing the power switch for about a second does work and is what I
do now until this lid switch problem goes away as I am sure it will.

Hi.
I have used the Microsoft Bluetooth Notebook Mouse 5000 on several
Thinkpads, X200, X220, X240 on many releases of Fedora, now F21
In fact I haven't used it until now on the X240 because I wanted to get 
used to

the touchpad (which has greatly improved IMO).
This post made me curious so I paired the mouse, shutdown the computer,
rebooted and immediately had the mouse, as it was on the previous
two thinkpads.
Overall this has been a very good mouse and is a nice small size for 
laptop use.

I continue to use it on the X200 although that is running W7.

good luck.

You have to pick-and-choose linux PDF readers depending on the

How about the addition of digital signatures?
