need grub experts

Bonjour,
I cannot get a correct resolution for grub. Here is my /etc/defaul/grub:
<--------------------
GRUB_TIMEOUT="10"
GRUB_DISTRIBUTOR="$(sed 's, release .*$,,g' /etc/system-release)"
GRUB_DEFAULT="0"
#GRUB_SAVEDEFAULT="true"
GRUB_DISABLE_SUBMENU="true"
GRUB_TERMINAL_OUTPUT="gfxterm"
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="rd.md.uuid=81f15cb5:748fb5c1:42bef1a6:1ea1ce47
rd.lvm.lv=fedora/usr rd.md.uuid=4a28174a:f38b4938:233f85f7:6ce585a8
rd.lvm.lv=fedora/racine rd.md.uuid=9f878179:a58f5c78:f645e22e:d7d3c896
rd.lvm.lv=systeme/swap rhgb quiet"
GRUB_DISABLE_RECOVERY="true"
GRUB_GFXMODE="1280x1024x32"
GRUB_GFXPAYLOAD_LINUX="keep"
GRUB_BACKGROUND="/boot/grub2/themes/system/fireworks.png"
#GRUB_THEME="/boot/grub2/themes/system/theme.txt"
export GRUB_COLOR_NORMAL="light-gray/black"
export GRUB_COLOR_HIGHLIGHT="magenta/black"
GRUB_FONT="/boot/grub2/unicode.pf2"
<-------------------------
So, as far as I read the grub doc, because of
GRUB_GFXPAYLOAD_LINUX="keep"
It is suppose to apply the 1280x1024 resolution to the console during
the boot. But it is not the case! I get this resolution only with the
grub first screen: fireworks image and the entry list.
What is missing in my config?
Strangely, I have a "custom file": /etc/grub.d/40_custom, to boot a
debian install:
<-------------------------------
menuentry 'Debian GNU/Linux, avec Linux 3.2.0-4-amd64' --class
debian --class gnu-linux --class gnu --class os {
load_video
set gfxpayload=keep
insmod gzio
insmod mdraid09
insmod part_msdos
insmod part_msdos
insmod ext2
set root='(mduuid/eb8b5efe5a8f9369e940a0f383d63ad1)'
search --no-floppy --fs-uuid --set=root
17e0b155-4d77-4769-b568-723329c5f656
echo 'Chargement de Linux 3.2.0-4-amd64 ...'
linux /vmlinuz-3.2.0-4-amd64
root=/dev/mapper/debian-deb--racine ro quiet
echo 'Chargement du disque mémoire initial ...'
initrd /initrd.img-3.2.0-4-amd64
}
<-----------------------------------------
In that case, the "set gfxpayload=keep" instruction succeeds to give
the correct resolution during the debian boot.
Thanks for any help and suggestion.

GDM Login issue in F22
by Amitakhya Phukan
Hello all,
Recently I have seen that whenever I boot up my system, F22, it goes to a
text prompt (I assume all processes for runlevel 5 are complete) and
displays "Please enter root password to continue" and then after around
30-40 seconds, it displays the GDM. I am at a loss as to what is causing
this and I don't know where to start debugging this issue.
Please help.

Thunderbird blinking browser notice -
by Bob Goodwin
This is Fedora 22, 64 bit, XFCE, etc. with Thunderbird 38.0.1
When I click on a URL in an e-mail message it immediately starts a
blinking browser notice at the top left. I know, I've just selected a
URL and don't need that annoying/distracting box. It's as though I am
being implored to go look at it immediately but I would like to continue
reading messages before doing so.
Does anyone know how to eliminate it or at the least stop the stupid
blinking? Google hasn't helped me ...

"software": how does it really work?
by Andrea
Hi,
I'm on Fedora 22 default gnome desktop.
I've got a few questions about "software"
1) how does it integrate with dnf? for instance if I do "dnf history" I do not see any of the
transactions done with the "software" app.
2) do "software" and dnf have the same source? there are packages available only via dnf.
3) when I check for updates "software" most of the times says
"up to date - nothing to do - checked at XX:YY" (maybe 2 minutes ago)
Then I force it to check and often it finds something to update. Once it is a coincidence, but is it
possible that so often updates are published just in the few minutes between the automatic and
manual check?

How do you store a Live Feed from a guitar
by Gregory P. Ennis
Everyone,
I finally have enough time to play with my computer and guitar at the
same time. Does anyone have a method of storing a live feed from a
guitar. I have a guitar with an acoustic pickup that I normally use
with a regular amplifier. I now have a usb audio cable from Alesis
LineLink that I can use to connect my Fedora 22 machine to the acoustic
pick up of the guitar.
I connected the usb audio cable to the computer and to my guitar, but
was not able to get any software that that was on my F22 machine to
recognize the the live feed.
Have any of you used this kind of equipment or other kinds of equipment
to store a live feed from a guitar acoustic pickup. I would like to be
able to play and store a song or two and then experiment with mixing
the sounds.
Any suggestions????
