video display problem -
by Bob Goodwin 26 Jun '18

26 Jun '18

Until recently VLC would display .3gp video clips from an iPhone full screen on this 24" monitor. Now they are very small, perhaps less than a two inch square. This is the rpmfusion vlc on Fedora 27. I suspect Apple has changed something. Am I the only one seeing this problem? Is there a fix for it? -- Bob Goodwin - Zuni, Virginia, USA http://www.qrz.com/db/W2BOD box10 FEDORA-27/64bit LINUX XFCE Fastmail POP3

[F28] Unable to use ACM LaTeX class with pdflatex
by Marco Guazzone 26 Jun '18

26 Jun '18

Hello, I'm using the latest ACM LaTeX class (version 1.53): https://www.acm.org/binaries/content/assets/publications/ consolidated-tex-template/acmart-master.zip I've installed the required packages. With Fedora 27, no problem. Instead, with Fedora 28, when I run the following command: $ pdflatex sample-sigconf I get the following error: kpathsea: Running mktexpk --mfmode / --bdpi 600 --mag 0+540/600 --dpi 540 txsys mktexpk: don't know how to create bitmap font for txsys. mktexpk: perhaps txsys is missing from the map file. kpathsea: Appending font creation commands to missfont.log. ) !pdfTeX error: pdflatex (file txsys): Font txsys at 540 not found ==> Fatal error occurred, no output PDF file produced! As an alternative, I can use latex+dvipdfmx commands to first generate a DVI and then convert it to a PDF. However, the resulting PDF looks different from the one contained in the acmart-master.zip file. I've just submitted a bug on Bugzilla: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1595278 Any idea? Thanks for your help.

cpupower
by JD 25 Jun '18

25 Jun '18

Manpage of cpu power make no mention of the selection of governor. How can set the governor to be the user mode governor instead of the performance governor and not the ondemand governor? If I can permanently set that governor, next I want to set the cpu frequency (for all cores) to 2134000Hz permanently. Reason I am posting this is because the normal speed of the cores is 2.8GHz, and that is causing numerous kerneloops interrupts (overheating). Fans are at full speed all the time, as I can hear them :) :) When I set the speed manually (as root) like this: for i in 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8; do echo 2134000 > cpu$i/cpufreq/scaling_max_freq done then kerneloops are greatly reduced. Every kerneloops is accompanied by mce: So, it has to be the heat. But I do not want to do this loop every time I boot up. I want to have set once and for all!!! Thanx!!!

>60gb of reserved memory??
by Susi Lehtola 25 Jun '18

25 Jun '18

Dear all, I just noticed a very weird problem on my workstation. Although the machine has 64 GB of RAM installed, $ head -n 1 /proc/meminfo MemTotal: 2400748 kB that is, only a few gigabytes are actually available. Unfortunately I don't have physical access to the machine, which is a HP desktop bought last fall. According to dmesg, the model is something like [ 0.000000] DMI: HP HP EliteDesk 800 G3 TWR/8298, BIOS P01 Ver. 02.06 06/09/2017 Also according to dmesg, it appears that the kernel *does* see all 64 gigs, BUT OVER 60 GB IS RESERVED MEMORY!! [ 0.000000] Memory: 2326720K/66985176K available (12300K kernel code, 1568K rwdata, 3836K rodata, 2124K init, 1368K bss, 64658456K reserved, 0K cma-reserved) Does anyone have any idea of what could be going on? I am running an up-to-date Fedora 27 x86_64 with kernel 4.16.15-200.fc27.x86_64.-- Susi Lehtola Fedora Project Contributor jussilehtola(a)fedoraproject.org

Could LightDM be bad?? (LONG)
by Beartooth 24 Jun '18

24 Jun '18

I keep three PCs on my desk, running Fedora behind a KVM switch: #1 is my present biggest fastest, #2 its predecessor, and #3 that one's predecessor; I try try keep them as similar as is feasible. They've all been having troubles for months, which have only gotten worse. Under F27, they kept filling up with some sort of cruft, to the point of refusing dnf upgrade; but when I found any of the cruft, it was in places where I dared not lay about me with a cyber-battleaxe. I jumped to F28 the day of release. At this point, none of the three is usable at all without some dodge or other. #2 and #3 have each been wiped, twice, with different releases of DBAN, followed each time with a netinstall of F28 with Mate, and then dnf upgrade daily. All their boot messages show green OK. Those end with "Started Light Display Manager." Usually they proceed to a login box in front of the F28 display of blue light-conducting fibers. That accepts my password, churns a little way, and ends with a monitor full of blue horizontal lines, plus a few white lines in the middle and at the bottom; there is nothing legible. By doing Alt-Ctrl-F2, I get a display which lets me log in as root; I keep doing dnf upgrades, and trying startx, every day. I also reboot whenever there's a kernel change. Startx always flashes a couple times, then fails with a few lines of text, beginning with an attempt to adopt my monitor size (called "1920 1080" -- not 1920x1080),losing contact, and ending by saying that the Xserver "terminated successfully." I'd like to try replacing LDM with something else; how do I do that?? (I like Mate well, and would prefer not to swap it out,too) Finally, #1 has two F28 kernels -- which do no better than on #2 nor #3 -- and a rescue kernel from F26. Sic. Twenty-six, not 27 nor 28. But that rescue kernel does support almost my whole GUI (I miss Pan badly.), and I don't have to descend to the console. #1 got F28 by upgrading with dnf from F27, and still has a lot of stuff on it that I'd rather copy to #2 and #3 directly than by way of solid state storage, if I dare risk malware. (I don't know where else all the cruft could have come from, apart from malware, but I hope someone here does.) -- Beartooth Staffwright, Not Quite Clueless Power User Remember I know little (precious little!) of where up is.
