Would Tor have protected me against that? yep, Tor browser is harden enough to protect you from these kind of attack and provide better anonymity unless and untill you don't do any stupidity. If possible always prefer to use Tor Browser. ___ users mailing list -- users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to users-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: https://getfedora.org/code-of-conduct.html List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/users@lists.fedoraproject.org
Re: e-mail security.
copy link and paste this link to Tor browser(if possible otherwise any browser in private window) and make sure link end with barracuda.com and there is a green lock on your browser address bar.

How to Fix ACPI Error : Namespace lookup failure
Greetings, Whenever I boot up my PC I'm getting this error `sudo dmesg` [ 12.432182] ACPI Error: [\_SB_.PCI0.LPCB.H_EC.ECAV] Namespace lookup failure, AE_NOT_FOUND (20160831/psargs-359) [ 12.432241] ACPI Error: Method parse/execution failed [\_SB.PCI0.B0D4._TMP] (Node 9de85a1f4410), AE_NOT_FOUND (20160831/psparse-543) It seems like something is missing (for ex. library, package etc). I'm ignoring this error from 7-8 months because it has no bad effect on PC my but I'm more interested in why am I getting this error? And if possible, How can I fix this issue?___ users mailing list -- users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to users-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: https://getfedora.org/code-of-conduct.html List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/users@lists.fedoraproject.org
Re: How do I start geoclue as a user?
Add that User to sudo group and then use `sudo systemctl start geoclue` because normal users can't modify system configuration. ‐‐‐ Original Message ‐‐‐ On Sunday, November 11, 2018 9:02 AM, ToddAndMargo via users wrote: > Hi All, > > systemctl start geoclue > > Anything special I have to do to it to allow standard > users to start it? > > $ ls -al /usr/lib/systemd/system/geoclue.service > -rw-r--r--. 1 root root 468 Oct 14 11:59 > /usr/lib/systemd/system/geoclue.service > > Many thanks, > -T ___ users mailing list -- users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to users-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: https://getfedora.org/code-of-conduct.html List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/users@lists.fedoraproject.org
Security issue
Why wouldn't you regular review your task manager, system settings etc. to confirm your machine has been not comprised ? (Here, few things which you can do to confirm there isn't a breach in your system). 1. Failed logins: /var/log/messages 2. last, w, uptime 3. /etc/passwd changed? 4. fuser for ports 5. portscans in server report 6. weird processing hogging CPU? Switching between different distro in six month is really a big pain. Isnt't it ? ‐‐‐ Original Message ‐‐‐ On Tuesday, November 6, 2018 10:57 PM, William Oliver wrote: > I jump around a lot.
