Upgrade to Fedora 21 (to be) - problems with akonadi
by José Abílio Matos 16 Aug '14

16 Aug '14

Hi, yesterday I decided to upgrade to Fedora 21, soon to be in Alpha. It all works smoothly and my only problem was with akonadi and thus with kmail. Where I got [ERROR] mysqld got signal 11 ; The full error log is available as attachment. Since despair is not an option I searched for help and I got to this page about Arch and the same problem: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=184192 After reading I decided to remove the ~/.local/share/akonadi/mysql.conf log out and log in and voilá I am again an happy camper. :-) FWIW, as reported in the link above, there is not any difference between the file that I had removed (moved actually, not that it matters) and the new file placed there. I suspected that the absence of that file triggers the right procedure. I hope this helps others. Regards, -- José Abílio

Switch User broken
by Patrick O'Callaghan 14 Aug '14

14 Aug '14

KDE 4.13.3, Fedora 20 up to date. Switching sessions to a different user works. Switching back to my original KDE session doesn't. I just get a blank screen and have to kill KDE or restart the system. AFAIK this is a recent bug as I have used the switching feature with no problems over a number of years. Could possibly be systemd-related, but that's just paranoia. Has anyone else seen this or should I BZ it? poc

You mean switching back via CNTL-ALT-F1 (or whatever your VT was), doesn't work? If not, I'd suspect an X (or video driver) issue first. -- rex

Filed https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1128463 Interestingly, I've seen pam-kwallet apparently not working right with kdm too recently (@work, so maybe NFS $HOME may have something to do with it for me). -- Rex

I'm testing SDDM and I've seen gnome-keyring is not unlocked when starting a session. It works fine with KDM Is only me, or someone else has experienced this problem? I remember to have touch the pam configuration of kdm in the past, but sddm has its stock config. I have this in /etc/pam.d/sddm auth [success=done ignore=ignore default=bad] pam_selinux_permit.so auth substack password-auth -auth optional pam_gnome_keyring.so -auth optional pam_mate_keyring.so auth include postlogin account required pam_nologin.so account include password-auth password include password-auth session required pam_selinux.so close session required pam_loginuid.so session optional pam_console.so -session optional pam_ck_connector.so session required pam_selinux.so open session optional pam_keyinit.so force revoke session required pam_namespace.so session include password-auth -session optional pam_gnome_keyring.so auto_start -session optional pam_mate_keyring.so auto_start session include postlogin And this in /etc/pam.d/kdm #%PAM-1.0 auth [success=done ignore=ignore default=bad] pam_selinux_permit.so auth required pam_env.so auth substack system-auth -auth optional pam_gnome_keyring.so auth include postlogin account required pam_nologin.so account include system-auth password include system-auth session required pam_selinux.so close session required pam_loginuid.so session optional pam_console.so -session optional pam_ck_connector.so session required pam_selinux.so open session optional pam_keyinit.so force revoke session required pam_namespace.so -session optional pam_gnome_keyring.so auto_start session include system-auth session include postlogin -- Juan Orti GPG Key: DEEBD08B - http://jorti.fedorapeople.org/pubkey.asc Blog: https://apuntesderoot.wordpress.com/

KMail bloat
by Timothy Murphy 10 Aug '14

10 Aug '14

I recently noticed that email send through KMail seems somewhat bloated. Eg I have sent a 1-line message "Testing ..." (plus signature) through KMail and through mutt. The two emails have sizes KMail 3408 mutt 1836 The difference is due to the addition of the code below at the end of the KMmail message. Is this additional material a necessary consequence of using KMail? or is it due to some configuration choice that I have inadvertently made?

vboxnet0 constantly tries to connect
by Sudhir Khanger 06 Aug '14

06 Aug '14

Hello, Genymotion/VirtualBox created a new network entry vboxnet0 that constantly tryies to connect even when I am already connected to the internet. I have to regularly disconnect it. I can mark it to not connect automatically and make it not available for all users but I don't intend to break Genymotion or VirtualBox virtual machines. If that is a possibility. I am not sure what to look into to resolve this issue. Any pointers would be nice. -- Sudhir Khanger, http://sudhirkhanger.com http://github.com/donniezazen

I have an old mail file in mbox format, which I'd like to bring to my KMail inbox. What is the simplest way to do that? (All my KMail folders are in maildir format.) -- Timothy Murphy e-mail: gayleard /at/ eircom.net School of Mathematics, Trinity College, Dublin 2, Ireland
