VPN now fails to come up, "unspec 00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00"

yesterday, did system-upgrade to fedora 29, went very smoothly, almost everything continued working out of the box except that i could no longer "vpnc" into my current client. i checked with their IT guy, who could see the incoming request and confirmed that everything seemed fine. then i looked at the interface created for the VPN tunnel: tun0: flags=4305<UP,POINTOPOINT,RUNNING,NOARP,MULTICAST> mtu 1412 inet REDACTED netmask 255.255.255.255 destination REDACTED inet6 fe80::1f2f:331c:9941:aff2 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x20<link> unspec 00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00 txqueuelen 500 (UNSPEC) RX packets 0 bytes 0 (0.0 B) RX errors 0 dropped 0 overruns 0 frame 0 TX packets 0 bytes 0 (0.0 B) TX errors 0 dropped 0 overruns 0 carrier 0 collisions 0 i don't recall all that "unspec 00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00" being there before (if it was, maybe i just never noticed it). is this normal? or do i now have to add something to /etc/vpnc/default.conf to deal with that? oh, and right in the midst of /var/log/messages when this is happening, i read: iscsi.service: Unit cannot be reloaded because it is inactive. but i can't enable/start that. if i try: ● iscsi.service - Login and scanning of iSCSI devices Loaded: loaded (/usr/lib/systemd/system/iscsi.service; enabled; vendor preset: disabled) Active: inactive (dead) Condition: start condition failed at Thu 2018-11-01 11:58:24 EDT; 22min ago ├─ ConditionDirectoryNotEmpty=|/var/lib/iscsi/nodes was not met └─ ConditionDirectoryNotEmpty=|/sys/class/iscsi_session was not met i have no idea whether iscsi is relevant to this, just thought i'd throw it out there in case it was. rday

slow pick-up of DHCP IP address during PXE boot
by Digimer 02 Nov '18

02 Nov '18

Hi all, I've got a pair of KVM/qemu guests on a Fedora28 host. One of the VMs is a Fedora 28 server, and the other VM is a new VM I want to setup over PXE boot from the other F28 VM. When I boot the new VM, it sends the request for an IP and I can see the request come in immediately on the server VM. The new VM seems to ignore this IP for some time and re-requests an IP. After several seconds, the new VM takes the IP and the boot proceeds. On the new VM, I've tried emulating both an 'e1000' and 'virtio' NIC. Any tips would be much appreciated. The dev I'm working on requires very frequent PXE boots, so saving ~10 seconds per boot would be a big help. Below are relevant details. digimer Here are the logs from the server VM: ==== Nov 02 02:45:06 f28-striker01.alteeve.com dhcpd[13089]: DHCPDISCOVER from 52:54:00:e2:51:7b via bcn1_bond1 Nov 02 02:45:07 f28-striker01.alteeve.com dhcpd[13089]: DHCPOFFER on 10.1.14.240 to 52:54:00:e2:51:7b via bcn1_bond1 Nov 02 02:45:10 f28-striker01.alteeve.com dhcpd[13089]: DHCPDISCOVER from 52:54:00:e2:51:7b via bcn1_bond1 Nov 02 02:45:10 f28-striker01.alteeve.com dhcpd[13089]: DHCPOFFER on 10.1.14.240 to 52:54:00:e2:51:7b via bcn1_bond1 Nov 02 02:45:18 f28-striker01.alteeve.com dhcpd[13089]: DHCPREQUEST for 10.1.14.240 (10.1.4.1) from 52:54:00:e2:51:7b via bcn1_bond1 Nov 02 02:45:18 f28-striker01.alteeve.com dhcpd[13089]: DHCPACK on 10.1.14.240 to 52:54:00:e2:51:7b via bcn1_bond1 ==== Note the first offer is given at 02:45:07, but the DHCPACK comes at 02:45:18, 11 seconds later.

F29 - Gnome - Alt-tab
by Jeffrey Ross 01 Nov '18

01 Nov '18

Just installed F29 last night on one of my machines and found that the "alt-tab" switching within gnome is no longer working. The way I had it working in F28 was it cycled between every program open (not program groups) and I would like the same behavior again. It is possible I had a plugin installed before which may no longer be compatible but I do not know if this is the case. Pointers and a direction to start would be appreciated. Thanks, Jeff

gnome-boxes in "dnf list extras"

How come gnome-boxes is showing up in "dnf list extras"? $ sudo dnf mark install gnome-boxes gnome-boxes-3.30.1-2.fc29.1.x86_64 marked as user installed. $ dnf list extras Extra Packages gnome-boxes.x86_64 3.30.1-2.fc29.1 @updates This system was upgraded from F28 to F29 via "dnf system-upgrade", FWIW. (Graphical upgrade refused to work.) Am I misunderstanding what "dnf mark install" does? -- Braden McDaniel <braden(a)endoframe.com>

no hdmi audio on older tv

Hello! I have f29 (ernel kernel-4.18.12-300.fc29 ) on machine, which is changing its place from time to time - between two TVs. Old, and older:) Both are connected by HDMI. Video output is fine, even acceleration is working, but sound work only on newer of those two. I don't know if this is regression, because this machine replaced 32b rapbery2 with kodi, which was working without issues on both TVs (but was eaten by (not mine) dog) I was following https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/How_to_debug_sound_problems but had not found much: - with removed pulseaudio, the aplay -vv segfaults - I really on pulseaudio anyway, as I need to transfer sound to this machine over network - the diff of alsa-info.sh's is really minimal [1], only [cite] state.vc4hdmi { control.1 { iface PCM name ELD value '100007006712000100000000000000004c2d9d02 for non working and value '100007006712000100000000000000004c2d9b03 for working [/cite] - when alsamixer is opened, then the default looks like working, and the job on old tv; but not do nothing older tv. - when alsamixer -c0 is opened, then the vc4-hdmi reports no control for selected device for *both* tvs (which is same as f6 and selecting vc4-hdmi) Does anybody have a clue what to try?

Replacing email list for users with a web forum software called Discourse, what's your opinion?
by stan 01 Nov '18

01 Nov '18

Hi, There's a big mail thread on fedora-devel about using a web forum software called Discourse instead of mailing lists. The idea is that it would invigorate the Fedora community by encouraging younger people raised on social media and mobile platforms to contribute. One of the targets they have mentioned is the user list, because of its nature of short term question and answer topics. There has been push-back by developers because they have their custom solutions all working great around email lists for doing their work. I'm wondering how the people who regularly use fedora-users mailing list feel about that. Which would you prefer? Unfortunately, it's an either / or proposal, because there is no interface in Discourse for emails from an email list to be put in their forums, though they do have email notification for new web messages. Would you willingly or reluctantly migrate to the new platform? Here are a few links from that thread. https://theforeman.org/2018/07/discourse-6-months-on-impact-assesment.html https://discussion.fedoraproject.org/ https://meta.discourse.org/t/what-is-mailing-list-mode/46008/9 https://meta.discourse.org/t/biggest-busiest-discourse-forums/30674 In order to access discourse, because fedora is using the hosting provided by discourse, you will have to grant js access to http://discourse-cdn-sjc1.com
