Re: More hibernation mystery
My apologies for this, but this is how we go about hibernating on a new system now? In the past, from F34 or before, which is why I last set up this machine and have upgraded it using dnf ever since, it was pretty much automatic. Before that, some more work was needed (for a while): sudo vi /etc/default/grub add --> resume=UUID="" <-- to the line GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX= where the UUID is obtained using blkid. then sudo bash -x grub2-mkconfig # # for efi-based systems: # sudo bash -x grub2-mkconfig -o /boot/efi/EFI/fedora/grub.cfg In either case, systemctl hibernate is enough to set it to hibernate. But all this was not much, compared to what has been described on the thread. What changed? I am just trying to understand this in advance, as I was thikning of doing a clean install just to get rid of crud that inevitably creeps into my system. Having reliable hibernate (and this has been so for me all these years) is very important to me. In the past, I have had a separate physical partition for swap. Nowadays, I think that there is something else (dynamic swap) but I am not sure if that matters. Any enlightenment?

A simply ssh-keygen -t rsa works (with -b if you want more than the default 3072 bits). You've actually used a (very slightly) weaker signature algorithm than the default. ;) ssh-keygen(1) says: -t dsa | ecdsa | ecdsa-sk | ed25519 | ed25519-sk | rsa Specifies the type of key to create. The possible values are “dsa”, “ecdsa”, “ecdsa-sk”, “ed25519”, “ed25519-sk”, or “rsa”. This flag may also be used to specify the desired signature type when signing certificates using an RSA CA key. The available RSA signature variants are “ssh-rsa” (SHA1 signatures, not recommended), “rsa-sha2-256”, and “rsa-sha2-512” (the default). -- Todd signature.asc Description: PGP signature ___ 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
DNF5 feature status.
Hello everyone, I've been using dnf5 for almost a month and have done updates including kernel updates and everything seems to be working well. Dnf-3 has a feature of downloading source code directly from the repository which is absent in dnf5. Will it be implemented anytime soon? dnf-3 on my machine is very slow so I have to rely on dnf5.

It also showed the cures to "just > wait", reboot, "try it again". Nothing definitive. Can the stalled machine do other things on the internet (e.g. browse a webpage)? If it can, then it's possibly just a DNF issue to figure out. If you type ifconfig into the command line, does your ethernet port have a valid IP (not 127.0.0.1 nor an IP starting 169.254)? If it has one of them, it won't be able to do anything. Likewise if it has none. Does your PC have a nameserver configured in the settings? e.g. grep nameserver /etc/resolv.conf Without a DNS server to consult, the PC won't be able to resolve any host or domain names to connect to their IPs. What sets the network addresses for your PCs? Have you manually configured each PC with static IPs? Do you have a modem/router that sets the PCs network configuration via DHCP? Sometimes the modem/router needs a reboot (they can have bugs just the same as everything else). -- uname -rsvp Linux 3.10.0-1160.92.1.el7.x86_64 #1 SMP Tue Jun 20 11:48:01 UTC 2023 x86_64 Boilerplate: All unexpected mail to my mailbox is automatically deleted.
