Hello,
I get the following error when I try to update my fedora.
Error: Transaction check error:

I give up using Fedora ...
by Walter H.
F25 was running fine; after upgrade to F26 my VMware was broken,
now I have a VMware running with F26, which brings this:
"This host does not support "Intel EPT" hardware assisted MMU
virtualization.
This host does not support virtualizing real mode.
The Intel "VMX Unrestricted Guest" feature is necessary to run this
virtual machine on an Intel processor.
Module 'CPUIDEarly' power on failed.
Failed to start the virtual machine."
and the same machine runs the latest Win10 without problems(!)
this machine is an old HP wkst xw4600 with a Core2 Quad Q9300 CPU and 4
GByte RAM
Greetings,

Radeon(Kaveri) missing firmware and lost HW video acceleration?
by lejeczek
hi fellas
I think I've lost HW video decoding acceleration on A10
PRO-7800B R7 with recent kernel/mesa.
My kodi was nicely using vdpau until recently, I cannot say
when exactly it happened. Now only SW decoding and high CPU
usage.
I think I have all needed packages installed but vaapi also
seems to be gone, when I do:
[entertainer@swir ~]$ vainfo
libva info: VA-API version 0.40.0
libva info: va_getDriverName() returns 0
libva info: Trying to open /usr/lib64/dri/r600_drv_video.so
libva info: Found init function __vaDriverInit_0_40
libva info: va_openDriver() returns 0
vainfo: VA-API version: 0.40 (libva )
vainfo: Driver version: mesa gallium vaapi
vainfo: Supported profile and entrypoints
VAProfileNone : VAEntrypointVideoProc
# end of output
and there should be more, right?
In dmesg I see:

Could you tell your AMD APU(s) is still ok and working in

autofs and ssh fail over ipsec tunnel
by David A. De Graaf
I use an ipsec tunnel to connect my LAN (192.168.2.h) in North
Carolina to my son's LAN (192.168.1.h) in Maryland. We each have a
primary machine that manages the ipsec tunnel and several secondary
machines. Static routing tables direct traffic for the remote LAN to
the local primary machine and thence through the tunnel.
Cross-referenced DNS tables effectively join the two LANs as one.
We expect all the usual network tools (autofs/nfs, ssh, rsync, etc.)
to work thru the tunnel.
Recently we've noticed that autofs/nfs and ssh don't work between
a secondary machine and any remote machine.
Autofs/nfs and ssh work perfectly between the primaries.
Ping works perfectly between all machines, primary or secondary.
For autofs the key subfunction seems to be rpcinfo.
From the primary (datium) to the remote primary (octopus)
'rpcinfo -p name' yields good data:
# rpcinfo -p octopus
program vers proto port service
100000 4 tcp 111 portmapper
100000 3 tcp 111 portmapper
100000 2 tcp 111 portmapper

100021 1 tcp 35983 nlockmgr
100021 3 tcp 35983 nlockmgr
100021 4 tcp 35983 nlockmgr
But from a secondary to the remote primary it fails:
# rpcinfo -p octopus
octopus: RPC: Port mapper failure - Unable to receive: errno 113 (No
route to host)
Similarly, for ssh the basic test seems to be telnet <name> 22.
From primary to primary it works correctly:
# telnet octopus 22
Trying 192.168.1.2...
Connected to octopus.
Escape character is '^]'.
SSH-2.0-OpenSSH_7.4
But from a secondary to the remote primary, it fails:
# telnet octopus 22
Trying 192.168.1.2...
telnet: connect to address 192.168.1.2: No route to host
In both failures the complaint is "No route to host", but clearly
there is a route to the host, because ping works:
# ping octopus

Each LAN has a router that connects to the internet.
All LAN machines use the router's IP for the default gateway.
In the router is a static route that sends packets destined for the
remote LAN back to the primary machine that handles the ipsec tunnel.
What's the problem here? Why is ping more clever in finding the
route?
Any advice or insight gratefully received.

Upgrade from f19
by Eyal Lebedinsky
[resend, never saw the first one]
I have a server running f19 (don't ask). It is heavily customised so I prefer
to not do a fresh install of f26 and reconfigure everything.
I am reading the upgrade guide at
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Upgrading?rd=Upgrade
which says (Upgrading from End of life releases).
"If you have Fedora 20 or earlier, you will have to perform at least
part of the upgrade with bare yum. You can either use that method to upgrade to Fedora 21 or later"
My plan is to do this
f19 -> f21 (yum)
following https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Upgrading_Fedora_using_package_manager
f21 -> f26 (DNF system upgrade)
I suspect that attempting to go directly to f26 may be a bridge too far.
I will check and clean the system before/after each step.
Beyond the listed "common problems", is there any reason to not follow this path?
Is there a better way?
TIA

Anyone using kodi?
by Tom Horsley
I'm just installed kodi on my new Intel NUC, and
while it mostly works, it believes that the timezone
is UTC. I even modified the custom systemd service
to add an Environment definition setting TZ, and it
continues to display UTC time on the screen.
(This is on fedora 26).
The kodi timezone setting is always disabled even
in Expert settings mode, so I can't set it directly
in kodi.
I'd hate to think I'd have to change the hardware
clock to store localtime like windows :-).

F27 Beta install issue for existing RAID1
by dwoody5654＠gmail.com
I used F27 beta 1.3 to test if it would work a my computer with an existing
RAID1.
As it got to the install screen there was an error 'Device is already in tree'.
There are three reports on bugzilla about RAID issues but it does not seem like
they are related to the error message I am getting.
This same error message also happens on F25 and F26.
F24 works.
The is new documentation for F26 and it no longer references this type of
problem. The old documentation for F26 refers to the three reports in bugzilla.
Have I missed a work around?
Should I post this the the devel list or some other list?
I have a MSI MB (A78M-E35) with 4gig memory.
Thanks,
David

what is an administrator?
by Tom Horsley
In anaconda, in the create user screen, there is a checkbox
for making a user an "administrator".
Once you get past anaconda, there is no "administrator"
checkbox in any of the user configuration tools I
can find.
So what does it mean to make a user an "administrator"?
How do you go about adding that after you are way past
anaconda?
Do I add some sudoer info? Is there a group that needs
to be added to that user? What is an administrator?
