Does Gnome cache the rpm's of a software install,update? If so what is the path? I normally use dnf and create a repo to use on other machines.

VM Setup

by Robert McBroom

Xeon 8 core machine with 16G. Fedora 35 server installed. Have CentOS8 installed in qemu/kvm virtual machine. What would be the appropriate configuration of processor access and memory to get reasonable response from the vm? With 4 processors and 2G response is atrocious.

fedora 30 :: Failed to synchronize cache

by Adrian Sevcenco

Hi! I have a strange situation when trying to update a fedora 30 installation: dnf is not working because all repositories give: "Failed to synchronize cache for repo" and this is in the context of updating earlier a station f29->f32->f35 Any idea what is going on? It feels weird being able to update an older version but not this one... Thanks a lot! Adrian

dnfdragora issue Fedora-MATE_Compiz-Live-x86_64-36-20220302.n.0.iso

by Steven Usdansky

I know this belongs in bugzilla, but I don't really understand which component is the problem. I'm running from the live iso. When attempting to run dnfdragora from System->Administration->dnfdragora on the panel , nothing appears to happen. When run from a terminal, I get the following: [liveuser@localhost-live ~]$ dnfdragora Try reading configuration file From ./dnfdragora.yaml Skipped exception: <[Errno 2] No such file or directory: './dnfdragora.yaml'> From /etc/dnfdragora/dnfdragora.yaml Finally read user settings from /home/liveuser/.config/dnfdragora.yaml Skipped exception: <[Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/home/liveuser/.config/dnfdragora.yaml'> Logging disabled <_M_> [ui] YUILoader.cc:60 loadUI(): DISPLAY: ":0" <_M_> [ui] YUILoader.cc:61 loadUI(): XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP: "MATE" <_M_> [ui] YUILoader.cc:62 loadUI(): YUI_PREFERED_BACKEND: "" <_M_> [ui] YUILoader.cc:74 loadUI(): Detected a Gtk-based desktop environment. <_M_> [ui] YUILoader.cc:74 loadUI(): Prefering Gtk-UI if available and no <_M_> [ui] YUILoader.cc:74 loadUI(): user-selected override is present. <_M_> [ui] YUILoader.cc:96 loadUI(): User-selected UI-plugin: "" <_M_> [ui] YUILoader.cc:128 loadUI(): Using UI-plugin: "gtk" <_M_> [ui] YUI.cc:83 YUI(): This is libyui 4.2.16 <_M_> [ui] YUI.cc:84 YUI(): Creating UI without threads <_M_> [gtk] YGUI.cc:49 YGUI(): This is libyui-gtk 2.52.0 <_M_> [gtk] YGUI.cc:167 checkInit(): Style "/usr/share/libyui/theme/current/wizard/style.css" <_M_> [gtk] YGUI.cc:189 checkInit(): Style "/usr/share/libyui/theme/current/wizard/style.css" not found.

Fedora 35, Nvidia 510 and Wayland: no video

by Matti Pulkkinen

Hello, I wanted to try Gnome on Wayland with the Nvidia proprietary drivers, since that's a change that seems to be coming down the pipe for F36. Most other things seem to work fine, but I cannot get videos to play, not in MPV and not in Totem either. I only get audio. However, videos inside Firefox seem to play just fine. Has anyone experienced this and maybe found a fix? -- Terveisin / Regards, Matti Pulkkinen

Evolution: Starting Over

by c. marlow

Hi, I am trying to erase everything in Evolution and start it over as if I had just installed Fedora and Evolution I asked on Reddit and I got this far: I was able to do: rm -rf ~/.config/evolution rm -rf ~/.local/share/evolution rm -rf ~/.cache/evolution But when I get to: dconf reset /org/gnome/evolution/ is where the trouble starts... I can't get this command to work: [chris@fedora ~]$ sudo dconf -f reset /org/gnome/evolution/ [sudo] password for chris: error: unknown command -f Usage: dconf COMMAND [ARGS...] Commands: help Show this information read Read the value of a key list List the contents of a dir write Change the value of a key reset Reset the value of a key or dir compile Compile a binary database from keyfiles update Update the system databases watch Watch a path for changes dump Dump an entire subpath to stdout load Populate a subpath from stdin Use 'dconf help COMMAND' to get detailed help. [chris@fedora ~]$ sudo dconf reset /org/gnome/evolution/ -f error: -f must be given to (recursively) reset entire directories Usage: dconf reset [-f] PATH Reset a key or dir. -f is required for dirs. Arguments: PATH Either a KEY or DIR KEY A key path (starting, but not ending with '/') DIR A directory path (starting and ending with '/') [chris@fedora ~]$ Any ideas on what I should do? ======================= Thanks, Chris Please send *ALL* off list conversations to Chris(a)CWM030.com Otherwise, I will never see it.

Problems with phantom mmcblk0

by Robert Moskowitz

I have been busy using Etcher to make arm boot images. Now it is telling me that it cannot write to /dev/mmcblk0 Etcher is not running. I do not have an SD card in the system, yet /dev is listing mmcblk0 Is there someway I can remove this so perhaps things will start working again without a reboot? Note inserting then removing the SD card from the SD slot does not change /dev showing mmcblk0.
