Hello, I'm using Linux 3.10.x kernel and I have AMD proprietary graphics driver running akmod. The 3.9.9 kernel series was working fine until the latest update came. Now I can't log in using the new kernel, tthe screen goes black and it logs itself out. I can't even log back in. The older kernel is working flawlessly though. Any solution?

Backup settings
by Martin S 01 Aug '13

There apprently is a backup service in Fedora, which can automatically copy files to various "cloud-services" or other places. What is needed to be able to add /var/log/yum.log to the files that are backed up. The file is greyed out, and I can't select it. How do I solve this or should I go for some other tool for this?

Howto make Firewalld allow remote SSH into a Virtual Machine?
by Patrick Lists 01 Aug '13

Hi, I just did a fresh F19 x86_64 install on my workstation, copied a Virtual Machine to it and started the VM (has IP addr 192.168.122.20). Now I would like to be able to ssh into the VM from another box on my local LAN like my laptop. Thus far I can't make it work. Steps: Opened firewall-config Set the firewall zone of my Ethernet interface to Trusted: Options -> Change Zone of Connections -> <interface> -> Edit -> General -> Firewall zone -> Trusted Click on the reload icon Set the default zone to Trusted: Options -> Change Default Zone -> Trusted Click on the reload icon Results: Can not ping VM from laptop: [patrick@laptop ~]$ ping 192.168.122.20 PING 192.168.122.20 (192.168.122.20) 56(84) bytes of data. From 10.0.0.135 icmp_seq=1 Destination Port Unreachable Can not ssh from the laptop to the VM: [patrick@laptop ~]$ ssh 192.168.122.20 ssh: connect to host 192.168.122.20 port 22: Connection refused On the workstation IPv4 forwarding is on: $ cat /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward 1 So how do I make firewalld allow pings and ssh from remote hosts? Thanks! Patrick

Brother DCP-7065dn printer with Fedora 19
by D. Hugh Redelmeier 31 Jul '13

I carelessly bought a printer/scanner that has a proprietary driver. It worked fine in Fedora 18 and earlier. It doesn't seem to work with Fedora 19. Not much to be done with a proprietary driver, but I'd be happy with any reasonable solution. The printer is a network printer. I have a CentOS 5 box that can print on it. I thought that my CentOS 5 box could act as a print server for my Fedora 19 box. I arranged that, using the respective GUI tools. It doesn't seem to work. So I think that my F19 box still needs the proprietary driver. I get one line of postscript printed on the page. Is there some way that I can get the F19 box to treat the CentOS machine's published printer as something generic, like a PostScript printer? Here's where Brother describes Linux support: <http://welcome.solutions.brother.com/bsc/public_s/id/linux/en/index.html> I don't seem to have SELinux issues.
