Firefox - how to lose top bar / title bar - ?
by lejeczek
Hi guys.
How to lose title bar in current version of Firefox.
I have my user whose Firefox "profile" I kept for many years
as Fedora & Firefox kept updating - there I have no title-bar.
I sudo to another user and title-bar is there.
I tried to search through & compare about:config but I
failed to find relevant setting.
many thanks, L.

strange ip address reported by nftables
by François Patte
Bonjour,
This morning, logwatch reported this in the iptables section:
Logged 99 packets on interface enp3s0
.........
From 10.91.96.218 - 6 packets to udp(54366)
How, this IP address could be logged on my private network (which is
192.168.1.0)?
I miss something....
Thank you for clarification.

I've managed to mess up GNOME Boses & I don't know how to fix it.
by Scott Beamer
Greetings,
A few weeks back, I uninstalled GNOME Boxes via DNF and then installed
the Flatpak version (because I wanted to run GNOME OS and that’s only
possible with the Flatpak version of GNOME Boxes).
Well GNOME OS was just too unstable to play around with, so I deleted
it. Then I tried installing an Ubuntu guest and ran into problems (J
don’t recall what they were anymore). So I started over from scratch. I
deleted both OS images and uninstalled the GNOME Boxes Flatpak, then I
reinstalled the rpm version via DNF.
Well, my headaches have still continued since then. Now my problem is,
that any guest defaults to a ridiculously high resolution making
everything microscopic. It’s challenging, but I can usually go into the
display settings in the guest and change the resolution to something
sane (1920 x 1080 – same as the host).
The thing is, I have to do this every time I boot into any guest in
GNOME Boxes and it’s beyond annoying.
Is there a configuration file I need to tweak somewhere? I’m assuming
it’s a wonky QEMU setting, as there are limited options in GNOME Boxes.
Thanks in advance.

32 bit pam-libs?
by Tom Horsley
For a few days now, I've been getting update errors because (apparently)
the 32 bit pam isn't yet in the repos even though the 64 bit version
is newer:
Problem 1: pam-1.5.2-12.fc36.i686 has inferior architecture
- cannot install both pam-1.5.2-13.fc36.x86_64 and pam-1.5.2-12.fc36.x86_64
- cannot install the best update candidate for package pam-1.5.2-12.fc36.i686
- cannot install the best update candidate for package pam-1.5.2-12.fc36.x86_64
Problem 2: package libpwquality-1.4.4-7.fc36.i686 requires pam(x86-32), but none of the providers can be installed
- package pam-1.5.2-12.fc36.i686 requires pam-libs(x86-32) = 1.5.2-12.fc36, but none of the providers can be installed
- cannot install both pam-libs-1.5.2-13.fc36.i686 and pam-libs-1.5.2-12.fc36.i686
- cannot install the best update candidate for package pam-libs-1.5.2-12.fc36.i686
- cannot install the best update candidate for package libpwquality-1.4.4-7.fc36.i686
Problem 3: problem with installed package pam-1.5.2-12.fc36.i686
- package pam-1.5.2-12.fc36.i686 requires pam-libs(x86-32) = 1.5.2-12.fc36, but none of the providers can be installed
- pam-libs-1.5.2-12.fc36.i686 has inferior architecture
- cannot install both pam-libs-1.5.2-13.fc36.x86_64 and pam-libs-1.5.2-12.fc36.x86_64
- cannot install the best update candidate for package pam-libs-1.5.2-12.fc36.x86_64
In the past these sorts of things have gone away if I waited a couple
of days, but it has been doing this all week. Is a proper 32 bit pam
going to land soon?
I'm not sure why I currently have 32 bit pam installed, any drastic
consequences for removing all the 32 bit pam packages? There certainly
doesn't appear to be a vast number of packages dnf wants to remove
if I say erase pam.i686 and pam-libs.i686.

Shortcuts using Super key not working and I am sad
by Ranbir
Hi All,
My Super (i.e. Windows) key no longer works for any of the Super key
based shortcuts. I don't know why. The shortcut hasn't been changed
(it's the same).
Has anyone else run into this? Which area of the keyboard do I pound
with a hammer to resovle this?
I'm running an updated Fedora 36.

unremovable gnome packages
by Adrian Sevcenco
Hi! I was trying to remove the gnome packages and because of gnome-shell
i'm stuck with this list:
gnome-autoar-0.4.3-1.fc36.x86_64
gnome-bluetooth-42.2-1.fc36.x86_64
gnome-bluetooth-libs-42.2-1.fc36.x86_64
gnome-control-center-42.3-1.fc36.x86_64
gnome-control-center-filesystem-42.3-1.fc36.noarch
gnome-desktop3-42.3-1.fc36.x86_64
gnome-desktop4-42.3-1.fc36.x86_64
gnome-keyring-42.1-1.fc36.x86_64
gnome-keyring-pam-42.1-1.fc36.x86_64
gnome-online-accounts-3.44.0-1.fc36.x86_64
gnome-session-42.0-1.fc36.x86_64
gnome-session-wayland-session-42.0-1.fc36.x86_64
gnome-settings-daemon-42.2-1.fc36.x86_64
gnome-shell-42.3.1-1.fc36.x86_64
So, why is gnome-shell not-removable??? is it not a desktop application??
Is there a way to solve this __nicely__ ?
Thanks a lot!

opinions: backups
by Bill Cunningham
I just thought I would ask for opinions on backups that people use.
I have thought about the old fashioned dump/restore; IDK if that would
be good for modern use or not. My system isn't really that big. My
allotted size is 30 Gig, and it's not full. There's dar and xar and
fsarchiver. There's backing up with btrfs too.
I am thinking about back ups of the whole system and rpms I have
installed. And maybe not backing up logs, old settings like are stored
in the root directory of the user(s) and root account.
Does anyone use any of these or other backups? I just want to save
my rpms and not have to download all from scratch. IDK if dar or dump
would backup things like /sys or other system directories. I have
created dump backups but not really restored from scratch.
