Help in converting a Ubuntu install to Fedora

by Robert Moskowitz

Greetings again, I am continuing on my UAS work with one step wanting to simulate a set of flights with the MAVlink data sent to my esp32 RemoteID modules for transmission. I have a couple esp32 set up, but how to get the data into them using Fedora and not Windows and not even Ubuntu. After a lot of digging, it seems that with the ArduPilot SoftwareInTheLoop (SITL) I should be able to do this. I wsa told to try: 1. https://ardupilot.org/dev/docs/sitl-simulator-software-in-the-loop.html <https://ardupilot.org/dev/docs/sitl-simulator-software-in-the-loop.html> 2. https://ardupilot.org/dev/docs/copter-sitl-mavproxy-tutorial.html <https://ardupilot.org/dev/docs/copter-sitl-mavproxy-tutorial.html> 3. https://ardupilot.org/dev/docs/setting-up-sitl-on-linux.html#setting-up-s... <https://ardupilot.org/dev/docs/setting-up-sitl-on-linux.html#setting-up-s...> and it is #3 where converting Ubuntu instructions to Fedora that I am stuck. I can work with GIT, that part is easy. But when I get past that, I stall. Can anyone take a look at this and advise? Of course another option is running MONO and then just MissionPlanner, but lots of warnings that that crashes. thanks

HP12C Emulator?

by Beartooth

Is there an emulator of the HP12C for Fedora? (I'm running F39 Mate on a laptop and a PC.) I've found sites claiming there are emulators for various OSs, but I can't seem to find an rpm download on any that I've ever heard of. Am I just more clueless in this case than usual? Or more paranoid than necessary? Like, did I skip some site that I'd've been safe on? (I did try a couple stabs with dnf install.) I must've bought my real 12C sometime between 1987 and 1990, as near as I can recall, and it's still running just fine. The trouble is that I'm such a pack rat. It would help not to carry it too anytime I'm already carrying a perfectly serviceable Fedora machine. -- Beartooth Staffwright, Not Quite Clueless Power User Remember I know little (precious little!) of where up is.

double left click copy / middle click paste not working

by Andre Robatino

Earlier today, sometime after a reboot into the 6.6.9 kernel (which just went to stable), I noticed problems with copy and paste. But it's not the kernel, or the desktop (I tried others), so I suspect some update since the previous reboot, which was Dec. 31. Using right-click and then choosing Copy or Paste from the menu works, as do Ctrl-Shift-C and Ctrl-Shift-V, but neither double left click for copy or middle click for paste work. There was nothing in tonight's updates that fixed it. Anyone else seeing this, and if not, any idea how to diagnose? P.S. I first saw this in Firefox where middle-clicking on a bookmark no longer brings it up in a new tab, though I CAN right-click and select "Open in New Tab" from the menu. The same thing happens in Chromium, finally I noticed the problem with copy and paste in a gnome-terminal, and also in a mate-terminal. It happens in regular GNOME, in GNOME on Xorg, and in MATE.

errors logged after USB disk ejected

by fedora＠eyal.emu.id.au

This happens whenever I connect and mount a USB disk $ sudo mount /dev/sdi1 /sata Then when I am finished with it, I do $ sudo umount /sata and then $ sudo eject /dev/sdi At this point the system log shows the below burst of errors (the disk is still plugged in). Checking the system log I see this for the first time with kernel 6.5.12-200.fc38.x86_64 What is the correct order of commands when removing a USB disk?

http/apache/Let's Encrypt and Android

by Jeffrey Ross

Not sure if what I want to do is possible but currently I am redirecting all HTTP/80 traffic to HTTPS/443 with the statement in the virtual host section Redirect / https://server.domain.com/ This works very nicely and redirects the traffic from HTTP to HTTPS However I have run into a problem with older Android tablets, specifically 7.0 or older and a "Let's Encrypt" certificate (see - https://community.letsencrypt.org/t/letsencrypt-certificates-fails-on-and... ) The data that is being served has no sensitivity so I can remove the encryption altogether but I'd rather keep as much encrypted as possible. I think I have 3 options 1) disable all forced encryption for this virtual host, if the client chooses HTTPS I can serve it as HTTPS 2) is it possible to redirect traffic to HTTPS and if the certificate comes back as unknown/invalid have the client reconnect via HTTP? 3) identify the Android version and either redirect to HTTPS if it is >7.0 or leave it as HTTP if it is <= 7.0 I don't know about the feasibility of 2 or 3, I think once the client fails with an unknown certificate the client then simply goes away and reports an error to the user. Item #3 I don't think is known until after the client successfully negotiates SSL. Thoughts (other than telling users to dump 8yr old Android tablets)??? Thanks, Jeff

rfkill??

by Beartooth

Updating F39 just now on a laptop, I got a request for root to authorize rfkill. I had just also updated F39 on a PC, with no such request. (Both machines are connected to a KVM switch and a router by cables, not wireless.) I didn't authorize it, and shut the laptop down. Is there something I should do next?? -- Beartooth Staffwright, Not Quite Clueless Linux Power User I have precious (very precious) little idea where up is.

Replacing and mirroring boot drive

by Javier Perez

Hi. I need some guidance here. I want to replace the boot drive of a computer and then add a second drive to create a Raid1 system for the boot and / filesytem. For now, home will stay where it its, on a separate drive for now. The Boot drive is old. It is a Crucial SSD about 8 years old. It holds the /boot/efi directory on a small FAT partition, the /boot partition on an EXT4 partition and the root (/) on a btrfs partition. /home is on another, HDD and larger drive with a btrfs partition. This is a home computer and not kind of mission critical. Here come my questions. 1. Can I move everything on the SSD to a new SSD with everything under btrfs? From what I have been reading it seems like /boot/efi still needs to be on a vfat partition, but /boot could be moved into btrfs. Would it still need a different partition or can it live within the same partition with the / filesystem? 2. I understand from what I have been reading that btrfs has Raid1 capabilities therefore I could add the second drive and from btrfs add it to the partition as a mirror. But if vfat has to exist for the /boot/efi, how am I supposed to mirror it? I have read some articles but they seem kind of old (more than 3 years) and it seems like the way Fedora does it is not a standard way. I'd rather not have to use a hardware RAID controller. I would appreciate your insights.
