Aplay no play -
by Bob Goodwin 06 Feb '20

06 Feb '20

This is a re-installed Fedora 31 updated. I don't understand why aplay is not producing a test sound. [root@Workstation-1 bobg]# aplay /usr/share/sounds/purple/login.wav XDG_RUNTIME_DIR (/run/user/1000) is not owned by us (uid 0), but by uid 1000! (This could e.g. happen if you try to connect to a non-root PulseAudio as a root user, over the native protocol. Don't do that.) ALSA lib pulse.c:242:(pulse_connect) PulseAudio: Unable to connect: Connection refused aplay: main:828: audio open error: Connection refused What does this mean and how do I fix it? -- Bob Goodwin - Zuni, Virginia, Fedora Linux-31 XFCE

Authentication is required to mount /dev/fedora_localhost-live/home
by Patrick O'Callaghan 04 Feb '20

04 Feb '20

I get the above every time I log in, with a pop-up asking for my password. It never used to happen on F30 but I created a new installation for F31 and it's been nagging me ever since. I also don't know why it talks about fedora_localhost-live as I've never installed Fedora from a live image. This install used LVM, against my better judgement, so that may have something to do with it. This is under KDE, if it matters, and the pop-up just talks about "an application needing authentication", without saying which application. Any thoughts? poc

Any idea what is being sought?

Re: no remote syslog when hibernating

I'm going to assume that you didn't mean to only send it to me, so I'll bring it back to the list.
