05 Jun '15

I have two similar PC (old Pentium but workin fine) In Pc no.1 I upgraded from RH8 to Fedora and it went fine: Soundblaster is working fine In Pc no.2 I made a fresh installation but in redhat-sound-config Fedora doesn't see any card, that was working on Redhat 9 after soundconfig... Where is the trick?? I assume that my Sounblaster is an old 16...but fine on a router/firewall. Tnx Antonio

Getting Fedora to recognize my Kindle
by David Cary Hart 03 Jun '15

03 Jun '15

This is probably basic stuff. It's just been a very long time since I have had to do it. Simply put, if I plug my Kindle into a USB port, Fedora fails to recognize and mount it as an MTP device. This was working in F-21. Particularly troubling is the failure of ADB to see the device after 21 -> 22. No problem with my Android phone- Mounts and seen by ADB. Where might I start? I would RTFM if I knew which FM to R ;-) -- David C. Hart - South Beach http://www.slowlyboiledfrog.com

I'm shocked, shocked!
by Tom Horsley 02 Jun '15

02 Jun '15

To see that the "predictable" network name for my one and only ethernet port has changed once again. On fedora 22 eno1 is what used to be em1. I have officially had it, I'm going to eradicate this scourge and go back to eth0 so I don't have to change all my iptables and ifconfig files every time I upgrade fedora (or sometimes when I merely get a new systemd update).

Unwanted blinking notice -
by Bob Goodwin 02 Jun '15

02 Jun '15

. In Thunderbird, when I click on a URL in a message it does what I expect it to and I don't need re-assurance the it has! It brings up a flashing notification in the top left corner that I would like to eliminate. Does anyone have a fix for that? This is an updated F22/64bit system.

distcc only builds locally when using rpmbuild
by Sam Varshavchik 01 Jun '15

01 Jun '15

I've got distcc working correctly, when I run a build myself. I see the build jobs getting distributed just fine. However, when I use rpmbuild, all builds appear to be running locally. ps shows the maximum number of "/usr/bin/distcc /usr/bin/g++ [options]" processes running locally, that I but nothing gets distributed to other hosts. I've got %_smp_mflags set correctly to the number of build jobs that can run in parallel, to the sum total of jobs that can be distributed via /etc/distcc/hosts. Counting the number of distcc processes, I see that the right number of jobs have started, but only the local build jobs are running, and nothing gets distributed. There must me something in the environment that's doing this, because when I make the build myself, it works correctly.

Nautilus not show "Move to trash" in some case
by Dario Lesca 01 Jun '15

01 Jun '15

Stop fixing what is not broken. Into nautilus / preferences / behavior / Trash, the flag "Include a Delete command that bypasses Trash" is gone away (why?). If the file to remove is into a folder into filesyste without user trash, the right click on this file do not show "Move to trash". So, in this case, it's not possible to remove the file or folder. Workaround solution is using Caja (Great file manager!), thunar or open a termina and delete the file/folder. Some suggest? Thanks -- Dario Lesca (inviato dal mio Linux Fedora 22 con Gnome 3.16)

Fedora 22 KDE Spin - Arrows on windows borders
by Javier Perez 01 Jun '15

01 Jun '15

Hi How do I get back the arrows for window resizing? I can resize, but I have to guestimate if I am within the 10 to 20 pixels area where the desktop recognizes that I am trying to resize the window, not trying to do something else. It is kind of annoying not having that visual feedback My Look and Feel is "Breeze" and the desktop theme is "Fedora tweny two" I tried googling but I do not even know the search term to look for it.

F22 :: EFI boot :: grub2 does not find Windows 8.1
by Adrian Sevcenco 31 May '15

31 May '15

Hi! I know that there is another thread with similar subject but as i tried everything i will reiterate the problem with grub2-mkconfig not seeing the windows 8.1 even after adding custom entry. So, this are my information: [root@localhost grub.d]# parted -l Model: ATA Corsair Force 3 (scsi) Disk /dev/sda: 90.0GB Sector size (logical/physical): 512B/512B Partition Table: gpt Disk Flags: pmbr_boot Number Start End Size File system Name Flags 8 1049kB 3146kB 2097kB bios_grub 1 5243kB 420MB 415MB ntfs Basic data partition hidden, diag 2 420MB 693MB 273MB fat32 EFI system partition boot, esp 3 693MB 945MB 252MB Microsoft reserved partition msftres 4 945MB 38.2GB 37.3GB ntfs Basic data partition msftdata 5 38.2GB 61.3GB 23.1GB ntfs Basic data partition msftdata 6 61.3GB 78.5GB 17.2GB ext4 7 78.5GB 90.0GB 11.5GB ext4 [root@localhost grub.d]# mount | grep ^/dev/ /dev/sda6 on / type ext4 (rw,relatime,seclabel,data=ordered) /dev/sda2 on /boot/efi type vfat (rw,relatime,fmask=0077,dmask=0077,codepage=437,iocharset=ascii,shortname=winnt,errors=remount-ro) /dev/sda7 on /home type ext4 (rw,relatime,seclabel) /dev/sda4 on /mnt/WIN_C type fuseblk (rw,noatime,user_id=0,group_id=0,default_permissions,allow_other,blksize=4096) /dev/sda5 on /mnt/WIN_D type fuseblk (rw,noatime,user_id=0,group_id=0,default_permissions,allow_other,blksize=4096) [root@localhost grub.d]# cat 40_custom #!/bin/sh exec tail -n +3 $0 # This file provides an easy way to add custom menu entries. Simply type the # menu entries you want to add after this comment. Be careful not to change # the 'exec tail' line above. menuentry 'Microsoft Windows 8.1' { set root='hd0,gpt4' chainloader /EFI/Microsoft/Boot/bootmgfw.efi boot } i must say that with both gpt2 and gpt4 (esp partition and C:\ partition) does not work.. [root@localhost grub.d]# ll /etc/grub*.cfg lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root 29 May 30 10:07 /etc/grub2.cfg -> /boot/efi/EFI/fedora/grub.cfg lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root 29 May 30 10:04 /etc/grub2-efi.cfg -> /boot/efi/EFI/fedora/grub.cfg So, what i am missing? and why? (wasn't fedora tested for efi dual boot situations? i would think that is preaty obvious that a HUGE percentage of usage will be on modern efi/gpt windows 8.1 laptops and desktops) Did anyone have a working dual boot EFI installation of Windows 8.1 + fedora 22? Thank you! Adrian
