kernel number in dnf
by Antonio M
I switched from yumex to umex-dnf. This morning a new kernel was found, but
I got 4 kernels installed, even if my dnf,conf sounds like:
[main]
gpgcheck=1
installonly_limit=3
clean_requirements_on_remove=true
why??

distcc only builds locally when using rpmbuild
by Sam Varshavchik
I've got distcc working correctly, when I run a build myself. I see the
build jobs getting distributed just fine.
However, when I use rpmbuild, all builds appear to be running locally.
ps shows the maximum number of "/usr/bin/distcc /usr/bin/g++ [options]"
processes running locally, that I but nothing gets distributed to other
hosts.
I've got %_smp_mflags set correctly to the number of build jobs that can run
in parallel, to the sum total of jobs that can be distributed via
/etc/distcc/hosts. Counting the number of distcc processes, I see that the
right number of jobs have started, but only the local build jobs are
running, and nothing gets distributed.
There must me something in the environment that's doing this, because when I
make the build myself, it works correctly.

DNF: metadata_expire
by David Cary Hart
dnf metadata_expire defaults to 48 hours. Expiration in "updates" has
been reduced to six hours. Does that mean that it is pointless to check
for updates within a six hour span?

Nautilus not show "Move to trash" in some case
by Dario Lesca
Stop fixing what is not broken.
Into nautilus / preferences / behavior / Trash, the flag "Include a
Delete command that bypasses Trash" is gone away (why?).
If the file to remove is into a folder into filesyste without user
trash, the right click on this file do not show "Move to trash".
So, in this case, it's not possible to remove the file or folder.
Workaround solution is using Caja (Great file manager!), thunar or open
a termina and delete the file/folder.
Some suggest?
Thanks

xrandr for undetected screen resolution no longer working?
by Frederic Muller
Hi!
I connect one of my machines to my TVs. I have noticed that since
sometimes along F21 updates the specific TV resolution could not longer
be activated. As it is definitely not a life threatening condition I
thought another update would fix it. Apparently the problem might lay
elsewhere...
So I have 2 TVs (with different resolution) to test. I start with cvt,
then xrandr --newmode, xrandr --addmode and then --output.
At the --addmode stage the mode appears in (GNOME3) All settings,
Display, "monitor".
Whethere I use the graphical way or the --output command the monitor
remains in 1024x768.
Any idea what could be happening?
Thanks a lot.

F21->F22 fedup on i386: no login screen
by Max Pyziur
Greetings,
On this Fedora release cycle, I have been hoping to use fedup rather than
do a fresh install. To that end, I have three machines running F21: an x64
desktop, and two laptops - one x64 and the other i686.
I began w/ the i686 (a Dell Inspiron 600M) using fedup. The process is
lengthy; but it seems to be less buggy compared to the last time that I
tried it (upgrading from F17 to F18, when on completion the machine was
unuseable and required a fresh install).
With reboot, I now have no
login screen. In order to use the machine, I have to <ctrl+alt>-<F2> in
order to get a shell login screen.
Once there, I can type startx and I get Gnome 3; alas, I'm an xFce user. I
would like to be able to have my F21 environment
Looking at some of the startup messages, I see
Started GNOME Display Manager
Starting UserManager for UID 42
Started Show Plymouth Boot Screen
Started GNOME Display Manager.e" for details.t...n...nge transactions....
7dfb6016c1.ks...
and it stop there.
Any advice as to how to proceed in order to get a login screen would be
greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

F22 double graphical environment
by A.J. Bonnema
Hello all,
I recently updated my F21 to F22 and since the update I have 2 graphics
servers running. Of course, this is not good for performance.
What happens is:
1. I start the system, and get one server under c-a-F1,
2. From c-a-F2 I open a console (usually I play some music from the
console).
3. Some time after starting, the current graphical session is moved to
c-a-F3, c-a-F2 is still the console I opened, and c-a-F1 is a different
(non-logged in) graphical server.
Anyone have an idea what is going on?
What information could I research to find out what is wrong?
How can I get the system to start only one graphical server?
Kind regards, Guus Bonnema.
