GDM Login issue in F22
by Amitakhya Phukan 01 Jul '15

01 Jul '15

Hello all, Recently I have seen that whenever I boot up my system, F22, it goes to a text prompt (I assume all processes for runlevel 5 are complete) and displays "Please enter root password to continue" and then after around 30-40 seconds, it displays the GDM. I am at a loss as to what is causing this and I don't know where to start debugging this issue. Please help. -- Best regards, Amitakhya Phukan

Thunderbird blinking browser notice -
by Bob Goodwin 01 Jul '15

01 Jul '15

This is Fedora 22, 64 bit, XFCE, etc. with Thunderbird 38.0.1 When I click on a URL in an e-mail message it immediately starts a blinking browser notice at the top left. I know, I've just selected a URL and don't need that annoying/distracting box. It's as though I am being implored to go look at it immediately but I would like to continue reading messages before doing so. Does anyone know how to eliminate it or at the least stop the stupid blinking? Google hasn't helped me ...

"software": how does it really work?
by Andrea 01 Jul '15

Hi, I'm on Fedora 22 default gnome desktop. I've got a few questions about "software" 1) how does it integrate with dnf? for instance if I do "dnf history" I do not see any of the transactions done with the "software" app. 2) do "software" and dnf have the same source? there are packages available only via dnf. 3) when I check for updates "software" most of the times says "up to date - nothing to do - checked at XX:YY" (maybe 2 minutes ago) Then I force it to check and often it finds something to update. Once it is a coincidence, but is it possible that so often updates are published just in the few minutes between the automatic and manual check? Andrea

How do you store a Live Feed from a guitar
by Gregory P. Ennis 01 Jul '15

01 Jul '15

Everyone, I finally have enough time to play with my computer and guitar at the same time. Does anyone have a method of storing a live feed from a guitar. I have a guitar with an acoustic pickup that I normally use with a regular amplifier. I now have a usb audio cable from Alesis LineLink that I can use to connect my Fedora 22 machine to the acoustic pick up of the guitar. I connected the usb audio cable to the computer and to my guitar, but was not able to get any software that that was on my F22 machine to recognize the the live feed. Have any of you used this kind of equipment or other kinds of equipment to store a live feed from a guitar acoustic pickup. I would like to be able to play and store a song or two and then experiment with mixing the sounds. Any suggestions???? Greg Ennis
