Twitter Clients for Linux working after API cuts
by Oliver Paukstadt 27 Aug '18

27 Aug '18

Hi I was using corebird for a while as a twitter client. It does not work any more: https://www.patreon.com/posts/corebirds-future-18921328 http://apps-of-a-feather.com/ Are there any known Linux clients for twitter still working after the API cuts? Regards, Oliver -- Oliver Paukstadt <fedora(a)sourcentral.org>

xsane doesn't work
by Angelo Moreschini 27 Aug '18

27 Aug '18

recently xsane stopped to work on my computer... I don't remember exactly what i did when this happened (perhaps I made something of wrong on the panel configuration setting ??). They are several days that I manage to fix this problem.Actually I get the error : "xsane error during device I/O failed to open device hpaio:/usb/Deskjet..." I get this error message after I modified the file /etc/sane.d/hp.conf with the purpose to add inside it the exact manufacture name of my scanner (Hewlett-Packard ID 03f0:ac11 ) . Before I made this, I got other kind of error messages , as "failed to obtain value of option source" and "failed to start scanner : invalid argument" I know this is a common problem , I followed this link to try to work around : https://cromwell-intl.com/open-source/xsane-invalid-argument.html. till now without success. here some lines of error that I got from juornalctl ----------------- Aug 25 11:18:04 localhost.pluto xsane[2791]: scan/sane/bb_ledm.c 531: unable to open http connection Aug 25 11:18:46 localhost.pluto xsane[2810]: scan/sane/http.c 300: unable to open HP-LEDM-SCAN channe Aug 25 11:18:46 localhost.pluto xsane[2810]: scan/sane/bb_ledm.c 531: unable to open http connection Aug 25 11:22:07 localhost.pluto org.gnome.Caribou.Daemon[2097]: ** (caribou:2292): WARNING **: daemon Aug 25 11:22:12 localhost.pluto org.gnome.Caribou.Daemon[2097]: ** (caribou:2292): WARNING **: daemon Aug 25 11:22:14 localhost.pluto xsane[3018]: scan/sane/http.c 300: unable to open HP-LEDM-SCAN channe Aug 25 11:22:14 localhost.pluto xsane[3018]: scan/sane/bb_ledm.c 531: unable to open http connection Aug 25 11:22:14 localhost.pluto org.gnome.Caribou.Daemon[2097]: ** (caribou:2292): WARNING **: daemon Aug 25 11:24:09 localhost.pluto org.gnome.Caribou.Daemon[2097]: ** (caribou:2292): WARNING **: daemon Aug 25 11:30:05 localhost.pluto org.gnome.Caribou.Daemon[2097]: ** (caribou:2292): WARNING **: daemon Aug 25 11:30:10 localhost.pluto org.gnome.Caribou.Daemon[2097]: ** (caribou:2292): WARNING **: daemon Aug 25 11:30:12 localhost.pluto xsane[3302]: scan/sane/http.c 300: unable to open HP-LEDM-SCAN channe Aug 25 11:30:12 localhost.pluto xsane[3302]: scan/sane/bb_ledm.c 531: unable to open http connection Aug 25 11:30:12 localhost.pluto org.gnome.Caribou.Daemon[2097]: ** (caribou:2292): WARNING **: daemon Aug 25 11:35:39 localhost.pluto org.gnome.Caribou.Daemon[2097]: ** (caribou:2292): WARNING **: daemon Aug 25 11:43:16 localhost.pluto gnome-session[2088]: Gjs-Message: JS LOG: The property brightness doe Aug 25 11:43:16 localhost.pluto gnome-session[2088]: Gjs-Message: JS LOG: The property vignette_sharp Aug 25 11:43:16 localhost.pluto org.gnome.Caribou.Daemon[2097]: ** (caribou:2292): WARNING **: daemon Aug 25 11:43:23 localhost.pluto org.gnome.Caribou.Daemon[2097]: ** (caribou:2292): WARNING **: daemon Aug 25 11:43:25 localhost.pluto xsane[3799]: scan/sane/http.c 300: unable to open HP-LEDM-SCAN channe lines 55-78 ----------------- I will be happy to receive any kind of help .... thank you

by ToddAndMargo 27 Aug '18

I am told elsewhere that this is not the proper syntax: /etc/modprobe.d/iptables.conf add nf_conntrack_ftp ports=21 Anyone know what the right syntax is? Many thanks, -T

I need iptables ftp nat help
by ToddAndMargo 27 Aug '18

27 Aug '18

Hi All, My iptables firewall ported from RHEL won't connect to ftp sites and throws this error (written by me years ago): WARNING: active FTP rules have been selected but one or more necessary modules have not been detected In /etc/sysconfig/iptables-config, you must add ip_nat_ftp and ip_conntrack_ftp to IPTABLES_MODULES. Delimiter is a space. For example: IPTABLES_MODULES=ip_nat_ftp ip_conntrack_ftp To load changes, use: # /etc/rc.d/init.d/iptables restart # systemctl restart iptables To check if modules are loaded, use lsmod 1) is Fedora doing FTP differently in iptables? 2) where do I find ip_nat_ftp ip_conntrack_ftp now a days? Many thanks, -T

by SternData 26 Aug '18

26 Aug '18

If you've been gritting your teeth about Shutter not working on Wayland, it's time to rejoice. I've been compiling flameshot from github (https://github.com/lupoDharkael/flameshot) , but I see it's now part of the fedora repos. dnf install flameshot -- -- Steve

F28 Parole needs H.264 (High Profile) Decoder
by Robert Moskowitz 26 Aug '18

26 Aug '18

I have an iPhone .mov quick time video I need to play for my wife. I get this message from Parole. When I click on install, nothing seems to happen. How do I get this decoder installed? Meanwhile, VLC will play the audio, but the video stays on the first frame. What's with that? Or maybe some other app is better? thanks

auto-kill process using too much memory
by Frédéric 26 Aug '18

26 Aug '18

Hi, It happens sometimes that someone launches a process that uses too much memory. Then the computer starts swapping leaving the computer completely out of use. When the swap is full (I guess), the process is automatically killed and we can work again. But this can last 10-15 minutes. Would it be possible to kill any process using more than some LIMIT memory? The aim being to kill it before it starts swapping. Note that I am using F27 for now. Thanks in advance, F
