Fedora 30 upgrade - Am I right with this error conclusion?

by Danny Horne

Hi all, Despite what I said in another thread I decided to go ahead with the upgrade to Fedora 30 (from 29) on three VMs running under VMWare. Two went without problems, but the one running my webserver (with sites secured by LetsEncrypt) gives the following errors - Error: Problem 1: package python2-acme-0.31.0-1.fc29.noarch requires python2-josepy, but none of the providers can be installed - python2-josepy-1.1.0-6.fc29.noarch does not belong to a distupgrade repository - problem with installed package python2-acme-0.31.0-1.fc29.noarch Problem 2: package python2-certbot-dns-rfc2136-0.31.0-1.fc29.noarch requires python2-certbot >= 0.21.1, but none of the providers can be installed - python2-certbot-0.31.0-2.fc29.noarch does not belong to a distupgrade repository - problem with installed package python2-certbot-dns-rfc2136-0.31.0-1.fc29.noarch (try to add '--skip-broken' to skip uninstallable packages) I'm assuming I just need to wait for Certbot and its dependencies to catch up, or is there a quicker way? Thanks for looking

Re: Fedora 30 officially released! [AND RED HAT GIVES RICHARD STALLMAN (some of) HIS DUES...

by Morgan Read

https://fedoramagazine.org/announcing-fedora-30/ '...to assist Linux admins in the configuration of common GNU/Linux subsystems.' Is this the first the first time Red Hat has officially refered to the opperating system it's running in this way? If so, it must have been 15 years coming! That said, i wouldn't want to be churlish. Congratulations Red Hat in recognising the ecosystem which allowed this opperating system to delelop. Well done.

FC31 (rawhide) networking problems.

by George R Goffe

Hi, I frequently run "dnf upgrade" and a few days ago did that. My system booted just fine but the networking did NOT come up as it has. It's like the system now wants to be ipv6. Manual ipv4 configuration works just fine. I'm testing in a virtual machine with VirtualBox that has also been working just fine... The SAME problem started there to. Again, it's like the system wants to be ipv6. Again, manual ipv4 configuration works just fine. I have thought that I might have goofed something up so I reinstalled the VM and selecting "KDE Plasma Workspaces" and made NO other changes. I still have the problem. I've tried different versions of VirtualBox with NO joy. Does anyone know what has changed and possibly how to recover? This whole experience has left me feeling like the village idiot... NOT as much fun as they say it is. Best regards, George...

Gnome Terminal copy/paste inhibited by tmux

by Chris Murphy

Hi, If I'm in Gnome Terminal (no tmux), anytime I mouse over a URL it's automatically underlined and I can right-click on it to get a contextual menu with one of the options being to open the link. Simple. Perfect. If I run tmux, and in a tmux window/pane whatever, URLs are likewise automatically underlined, and yet right-click does nothing. On the one hand, Terminal clearly recognizes this is a link by underlining it. But on the other hand something tmux related inhibits that contextual menu. Any ideas either how to fix this or if you think it's a bug? I'm kinda inclined to file an RFE type bug upstream because it's pretty aggravating; but if there's some work around I haven't discovered that'd be even better. -- Chris Murphy

AskFedora has moved to Discourse!

by Ankur Sinha

Hello everyone, I am happy to announce that we've moved AskFedora to a new Discourse instance at https://askbeta.fedoraproject.org. In the coming days, https://ask.fedoraproject.org will also be updated to point to the new instance. Our Askbot instance is now in read-only mode, and will be moved to https://askbot.fedoraproject.org. Discourse is a great new discussion platform that allows for conversations, in addition to question-and-answer workflows. Given how troubleshooting usually does require a few rounds of discussion, we feel that Discourse's workflow fits it just a bit better. You can, of course, mark replies as "solutions" and so on to make information easier to find. Please note that we've limited access via FAS only---it helps us combat spam, get useful metrics, and it makes it easier for folks to start contributing to the community. Please take a minute to check out the new instance. - https://askbeta.fedoraproject.org/c/start-here -> we've summarised useful tips on using Discourse in this category. - https://askbeta.fedoraproject.org/c/site-feedback -> please post suggestions, ideas, feedback in this category. -- Thanks, Regards, Ankur Sinha "FranciscoD" https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/User:Ankursinha Time zone: Europe/London

UEFI boot with BIOS password, am I screwed?

by Richard Shaw

I had Windows 10 and Fedora dual booting nicely on a i5 laptop but then the HD died. I replaced it with a 1TB SSD (Yay!) and restored windows first per the recommended method. I then booting Fedora 29 Live and performed an install and all seemed to go well except it won't boot to fedora! When I try to get to a boot menu I only see Windows Bootloader and Fedora (the latter doesn't work). When I boot to Fedora Live I see multiple entries with efibootmgr including two Fedora entries. I assume one is for the old system and one for the new. When I try to go into advanced settings in Win10 to change UEFI settings it reboots me but there is a password on the BIOS. I can't remember if I set a password of maybe the kids did somehow but I have tried every password I have ever used and it won't let me in. Anyone got any ideas? Thanks, Richard

Fedora Virtualization (quemu/kvm) vs Virtualbox

by Dario Lesca

On a i7+16Gb+SSD notebook of a my friend I have install Fedora 29 workstation (all work fine! ... thank to all!) and into qemu/kvm/libvirtd via virt-manager I have install a win10pro with all virtio driver (disk, network, ecc..). After few days my friend say me that the win10 is slow and less efficient than same installation on another PC with VirtualBox. He told me "virtualbox is better and faster" I have heard this statement in other cases in the past and the only solution (sig!) was to replace qemu with virtualbox. There is some other solution to optimize qemu/kvm on Fedora to increase the performance for win10 VM? Someone has some performance comparison between the two virtualization system? Many thanks -- Dario Lesca (inviato dal mio Linux Fedora 29 Workstation)

tc and clearing qdisc

by Alex

Hi, I'm relatively familiar with traffic shaping using qdisc, but I don't know where this came from or how to clear it. I don't plan on using traffic shaping on this host and would like to just to clear it. It affects my bmon network and bandwidth monitoring. This is a fedora29 system. Where is this configured? Any ideas greatly appreciated. [root@darwin ~]# tc -s qdisc ls qdisc noqueue 0: dev lo root refcnt 2 Sent 0 bytes 0 pkt (dropped 0, overlimits 0 requeues 0) backlog 0b 0p requeues 0 qdisc mq 0: dev eno1 root Sent 88139039438 bytes 140573320 pkt (dropped 0, overlimits 0 requeues 14645) backlog 0b 0p requeues 14645 qdisc fq_codel 0: dev eno1 parent :8 limit 10240p flows 1024 quantum 1514 target 5.0ms interval 100.0ms memory_limit 32Mb ecn Sent 8656592525 bytes 16100730 pkt (dropped 0, overlimits 0 requeues 484) backlog 0b 0p requeues 484 maxpacket 66870 drop_overlimit 0 new_flow_count 2023 ecn_mark 0 new_flows_len 0 old_flows_len 0 qdisc fq_codel 0: dev eno1 parent :7 limit 10240p flows 1024 quantum 1514 target 5.0ms interval 100.0ms memory_limit 32Mb ecn Sent 12876191548 bytes 18838064 pkt (dropped 0, overlimits 0 requeues 1437) backlog 0b 0p requeues 1437 maxpacket 66870 drop_overlimit 0 new_flow_count 1945 ecn_mark 0 new_flows_len 0 old_flows_len 0 qdisc fq_codel 0: dev eno1 parent :6 limit 10240p flows 1024 quantum 1514 target 5.0ms interval 100.0ms memory_limit 32Mb ecn Sent 15675323229 bytes 20889032 pkt (dropped 0, overlimits 0 requeues 3434) backlog 0b 0p requeues 3434 maxpacket 68264 drop_overlimit 0 new_flow_count 2249 ecn_mark 0 new_flows_len 0 old_flows_len 0 ...

fedora 29 suspend/hibernate not working (SOLVED)

by t_pol

Hi List, I'd like to share my experience in solving the suspend/hibernate problem on my new laptop HP PAVILION 15-cs0989nl (I've read some post on the internet regarding this argument). The laptop has a "NVIDIA GEFORCE card" as well as an "Intel Corporation UHD Graphics 620 (rev 07)". After the new Fedora 29 Installation the system automatically loaded drivers "nouveau" for the NVIDIA card. Analyzing the logs after an unsuccessful suspend command I've noticed a number of messages regarding this driver, so I've decided to blacklist it putting the following in the file /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf blacklist nouveau options nouveau modeset=0 and adding the command: rd.driver.blacklist=nouveau to /etc/default/grub in the line starting with "GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX=" and then recreating the grub.cfg with grub2-mkconfig -o /boot/efi/EFI/fedora/grub.cfg Last thing I did was to disable safe boot in BIOS Setup. That's it. Right now both suspend and hibernate work like a charm. Hope this could help someone. Ciao
