Qt window doesn't fit the screen
by Hiisi 18 Feb '20

18 Feb '20

Hello, Fedora folks! I'm trying to use cura-lulzbot (a 3D-printer slicer), the latest version from fedora repos. However, the window doesn't fit my laptop screen and I can't scroll to the bottom of the window to access some buttons there. I remember back in the days of gnome2 it was possible to hold Alt key and drag to the bottom of the screen. This option seems to be unavailable in the current release of gnome fedora comes with. Any workaround? The package in question is cura-lulzbot-3.6.21-2.fc31.noarch. My laptop screen resolution is 1366x768. This is maximum :( The app works just fine when I connect the external display with higher resolution and move the window there. -- Hiisi. Registered Linux User #487982.

podman and mysql
by Simon Colston 18 Feb '20

18 Feb '20

Fedora 31 Workstation I am running mysql in a container using podman. After some experimenting I got it running with this command: podman run --detach --userns=keep-id \ --security-opt label=disable \ --name=mysql \ --env="MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD=mysql" --publish 3306:3306 \ --volume=/home/simon/servers/mysql/var/lib/mysql:/var/lib/mysql mysql:8.0 \ --character-set-server=utf8mb4 --collation-server=utf8mb4_unicode_ci \ --lower_case_table_names=1 The bits that took time to research were: --userns=keep-id - which maps my user to the same uid in the container --security-opt label=disable - which disables SELinux in the container (dev machine so OK) I could then connect to the database using the mysql client: mysql -u root -p -h 127.0.0.1 -P 3306 Now, after a dnf upgrade this has stopped working and I get an error message: ERROR 2003 (HY000): Can't connect to MySQL server on '127.0.0.1' (111) The container is running and appears to be healthy. I've tried recreating the container and reinitialising the database (by deleting all the files).

NetworkManager and PEERDNS=no
by Tom Horsley 17 Feb '20

17 Feb '20

I keep seeing signs that "network" will someday disappear entirely and I'll be forced to use NetworkManager, so the first question I haven't been able to find an answer for: What is the "proper" way to setup a network connection using nmcli which will get an IP via DHCP, but will ignore the DHCP provided DNS and use a different DNS server specified manually? (I can do it using techniques like chattr +i on /etc/resolv.conf, but that isn't exactly "proper" :-).

Automatic mount of external HDD.
by Erik P. Olsen 17 Feb '20

17 Feb '20

I have an external 2TB HDD which is defined in /etc/fstab so it is mounted at system boot time. I would like to be able to have it mounted automatically with the same mount point as defined in fstab when it is hot-plugged and unmounted when it is later disconnected. Is that possible and if so how to do it? Thanks in advance. -- Erik P. Olsen - Copenhagen, Denmark Fedora 31/64 bit Linux xfce Claws-Mail POP3 Gramps 5.1.1 Bacula 9.4.4

Firefox view is 20% bigger since yesterday updates
by Frederic Muller 17 Feb '20

17 Feb '20

Hi! Did updates yesterday (or Saturday.. more likely) and suddenly Firefox got 20% bigger. I've installed an extension to automatically reduce all tab sizes to 80% but it doesn't work consistently. I was wondering if i was the only one and if there was a more reasonable fix than the addon I'm using. Thank you. Fred

wine staging?
by ToddAndMargo 16 Feb '20

16 Feb '20

Hi All, What is the current policy regarding Wine versus Wine Staging now that Wine Staging has been absorbed by Wine? Are we sticking with Staging? -T My favorite was Staging as they actually fixed far more bugs than regular Wine.

How to modify/add compose (multi key) shortcuts and keyboard layout with wayland?
by Gregory Salvan 16 Feb '20

16 Feb '20

Hi, I've failed these last days to edit my keyboard layout and add compose shortcuts on a fedora 30 (5.4.17-100.fc30.x86_64) with gnome 3.32.2 on wayland. For keyboard layout when editing /usr/share/X11/xkb files I can replace some keys, but I would prefer do it at user level to not have my files erased by an update. so I've tried ~/.xkb (and even ~/.Xmodmap) dug into /etc/ , ~/.config, and dconf and found nothing relevant. I've tried with and without ibus. For compose, I've tried to edit /usr/share/X11/locales/*/Compose and also created a ~/.XCompose file and nothing happened. Can someone explain me how can I make a user defined configuration for my keyboard layout and for compose keys please ?
