My Fedora installation prints fine in both modes.

BUT: can it be that you are using Libreoffice? That seems to be a long
standing but, and you have to go to "properties -> device" in the
printer settings dialog and set the "printer language type" from "PDF"
to "Postscript" to get this to work.

Nothing works. No links, no importing bookmarks, no creating bookmark, no
downloading.  Same thing with other users (root and user)...
For example, i want to download the rpmfusion package :
http://rpmfusion.org/
when i click the links fedora-18-release-x86-64 nothing happens. No window
for download, no activity for it. Same thing for usenet, impossible to
recover the news.
Generally, impossible to download anything ! Only mail works.
R !! :((

Wouldn't that be a print-to-file, rather than print-on-paper, issue?

If being unable to print in landscape is an application problem, that's
often down to trying to do it in the wrong way.  e.g. With a word
processor, the page formatting settings determine landscape or portrait
printing, not the printer settings.  Likewise with graphics programs,
though aspect ratio tending to be automatic determination.  The printer
will print the page in the aspect that the page is actually laid out,
automatically, rather than squeeze or stretch the picture along the page
to print the wrong way around, unless deliberate steps are taken
regarding stretching.

By way of illustrative example, if the large rectangle represents the
paper, and the asterisks what is going to be printed on the page,
printing like this tends to be avoided by software:

++
|**  |
|**  |
|**  |
|**  |
|**  |
++

You have to go out of your way to print in the aspect and orientation
that you want.

How about when the image being printed has an aspect ratio compatible
with landscape but the resolution is small enough that it fits to
portrait with ease?  Recently when I printed a web comic for my office
door, I had to explicitly choose landscape and stretch/shrink to fit to
get something like this:

+-+
| |
|  *  |
|  *  |
|  *  |
| |

Have you tried starting your browsers in safe-mode and see if some
add-on is to blame?  Do you have a proxy setup?  Maybe that is behaving
badly?  Do text mode browsers w3m, lynx, and elinks work?

You do not provide much information about what you tried and how did it
fail.  Some more details should help others on the list diagnose the
problem.

No, but you have MP2 and MP3 sound-only files and MP4 videos. MP4 seems 
to be the download-of-choice from youtube.com, for example.

Fedora 18 existing /usr partition -- need to merge into rootfs?

[Noah Cutler]

Hey all.

I'm confused over the whole separate /usr partition is broken thing:
http://freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/systemd/separate-usr-is-broken

>From an email in current fedora-user thread we have:
"That should not be necessary.  And would break a very normal system
setup of using separate drives, *even more so than the blasted can't have
a separate /usr thing that happened recently*."

During Fedora 18 fresh install with custom partitioning chosen, Anaconda
autocompletes mount points so I went with /boot, /, /user, /var, and /home
partitions.

Everything appears to work swimmingly here after 1 month of use -- separate
/usr partition does not appear to be broken...anymore??

Just trying to future proof my setup; if it's better to merge /usr into
rootfs, so be it, better to do it early days with the new system.

Otherwise, if someone can chime in here with some sage partitioning advice
as to how to proceed moving forward with Fedora, that would be much
appreciated.

FWIW, as a beginner the benefits I see in a diverse micro-managed
partitioning scheme (vs. the mega partition) is being able to fsck quickly;
clone partitions quickly (e.g. copy to additional disks), and prevent
runaway logs and the like (there are likely others).

I'm thinking something like this would be "ideal" for a 256GB SSD:

/dev/sda1 /boot 181MB of 500MB
/dev/sda2 / 606MB of 3GB

extended:
/dev/sda4 /usr 6.0GB of 12GB
/dev/sda5 /var 1.5GB of 8GB
/dev/sda6 /home 15GB of 30GB
free space the rest

Of course most seem to go with /boot / and /home, so my ideas are likely
not grounded in reality ;-)

it makes ZERO sense to split /usr to a own partition
you owuld really clone a partition containing the whole system
or share it with another setup without the depending RPM database
which lives in /var/lib/rpm/?

sorry but the idea of a seperate /usr is broken at all

How do you keep contacts in Fedora/KDE?

[Timothy Murphy]

As a matter of interest, how do those of you running Fedora/KDE
keep your contacts?
I have a rather messy combination of Google contacts, 
KAddressBook and LDAP,
but would like to organise something simpler.
I suspect the simplest solution might be to go over entirely
to Google contacts, as I want to keep my contacts in sync
with my Android phone.

But what do people running Fedora/KDE usually do?

No, it's a common printout on paper which is affected. It's easy to
reproduce with a fully updated F17 (and as far as I know, it's the
same on F18):

1. Open Libreoffice Writer
2. Open a new document in landscape format
3. Write a few words
4. Klick on "print"

The result will be in portrait format, unless you switch the "printer
language type" to postscript, and not to PDF (which is the standard).

There's a lot of documentation on this one on the net, e.g. here:
https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=120368

fedora18 stopped suspending on lid closed

[Aleksandar Kostadinov]

From some time my fedora stopped suspending when lid is closed. I see 
in system log that lid event is detected. So I'm wondering what can be 
the cause.

Suspend works when I choose to suspend clicking on the XFCE power applet.

Pls keep me in cc in replies.

Only you can answer that. Ask yourself what you can afford to lose.

Hardly surprising if you're doing it with tar, which is making a
complete copy every time. That's the wrong approach. As I mentioned
earlier, rsnapshot, obnam and others can do incremental backups which
take up little space. They are also better run as cron jobs, i.e.
automatically. I run mine when my system is quiescent (4am every day)
but again that's your call.

And it goes without saying that the backup should be to another machine,
e.g. using rsync or a net-mounted filesystem.

Note that these are recommendations for a personal system that you can't
afford to lose. For larger systems you might want to look at solutions
such as Amanda or Bacula (not that these won't work on a personal system
as well, they just need a bit more setting up).

Speaking only for myself, I just keep everything in Google Contacts (I

I, too, keep all my contacts in Google Contacts. They sync to
Thunderbird via the Google Contacts extension, sync to my iPhone, iPad,

Youtube and anything which provides videos for web is using
H.264/MPEG-4 Part 10 / AVC, to be specific H264 BASELINE PROFILE
and nothing else in context of "MP4" because THIS is the spec
which is supported by Smartphones, Tablets, mobile browsers up to
Firefox on Android in recent releases and most hardware-devices
including hardware acceleration

Re: Fedora 18 existing /usr partition -- need to merge into rootfs?

Hey all.

I'm confused over the whole separate /usr partition is broken thing:
http://freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/systemd/separate-usr-is-broken

 From an email in current fedora-user thread we have:
"That should not be necessary.  And would break a very normal system
setup of using separate drives, *even more so than the blasted can't have
a separate /usr thing that happened recently*."

During Fedora 18 fresh install with custom partitioning chosen, Anaconda
autocompletes mount points so I went with /boot, /, /user, /var, and /home
partitions.

Everything appears to work swimmingly here after 1 month of use -- separate /usr
partition does not appear to be broken...anymore??

Just trying to future proof my setup; if it's better to merge /usr into rootfs,
so be it, better to do it early days with the new system.

Otherwise, if someone can chime in here with some sage partitioning advice as to
how to proceed moving forward with Fedora, that would be much appreciated.


If you really want to keep a separate /usr (I do, mounted read-only and
located on an SSD) you just need to arrange to have /usr mounted by dracut
early in the boot sequence. It's not hard:

1. Copy the /usr line from your /etc/fstab into a (probably new) file
   /etc/fstab.sys .

2. Edit the file /etc/dracut.conf and change the line
#add_dracutmodules+=""
   to read
add_dracutmodules+="fstab-sys"

3. IMPORTANT: In /etc/fstab, disable the automatic fsck for /usr by
   putting a zero in field 6.

4. Run dracut to remake the initramfs in /boot.

That's it.  Now your /usr gets mounted early in the boot sequence.
It is available when needed, and you can ignore the warning from systemd.
You will have to make your own arrangement for fsck on your /usr.  If
you allowed the automatic fsck to run, it would be guaranteed to fail
since the filesystem is mounted.  (The special handling for the root
filesystem is hard-coded into fsck and would not apply to a pre-mounted
/usr.)

portable?

* Apple does not support it
* Microsoft does not support it
* many mobile devices does not support it
* most hardware-devices does not support it

don't get me wrong, i owuld love to have VP8 in the position H264
is, but since it's part of my daily job to write software which
supports most to all clients with videos that's not how the world
works for at least some years from now

Time to start trying crazy ideas. Can you access 108.59.9.142? It's the
same site as above, but there may be something off with your DNS
settings. I've had situations where some apps work and others don't, due
to my /etc/resolv.conf being borked.

Hum, tried this with an old cell phone which didn't have the latest and greatest 
updates, the big long script works with old phones, and the ffmpeg idea of 
"webm" doesn't. On the other hand, the mp4 was more than double the size, so 
there are tradeoffs. I suspect the OP wants portability above all.

I use "-target ntsc-dvd" a lot to get a file which will go on a DVD should I

I was typing a reply to my post commenting on the same issue, Ed's script is 
quite useful, but but I did resize the the frames down to something suitable for 
mobile, my original was TV capture at 1920x1080, mp4 was about 21MB/min, vs. 
1500k/min at 720x480.


Even on a tablet that looks acceptable for many things, and until I trade my 
tf300 for a tf700 and get new glasses, it will do.

Hi!

You don't say what desktop are you using.  It would be useful.
See on Firefox configuration, may be it has no setting for clicking
links  (in example:  "Click on a link:  Open a new tab.  Open a new
window.  Does nothing".



Hope you can understand my bad English,

Absolutely.  Yesterday's updates (I presume) somehow b0rk my desktop,

I've decided that the best thing to do is to reinstall Fedora, without 
reformatting /home to get a fresh start.  Right now I'm downloading the 
F 17 .iso onto my laptop and will burn a DVD.  Why 17?  Well, I've been 
reading all too many threads on fedoraforum about people having endless 
problems with the new anaconda's partitioning software, especially when 
it comes to reusing old partitions and I'm not willing to take any 
chances with it.  Being one version behind isn't really that bad, as 
it's still supported, but I wanted to toss it out as a reason not to go 
with The Latest And Greatest.

No i can't access. I've also had this problem. My /etc/resolv.conf :

Try this, then:

That's mit.edu, and I know that it responds to pings, because I just

ping mit.edu

If it works, DNS should be OK; if not, that might be the issue.

because all this machines configured from people which should never

in my daily jobs as developer / sysadmin and security officer and the
minimum someone has to do is READ basic documentations or hire someone
with the needed konwledge BEFORE put his spam/attack amplifier on the

Just guessing as I don't know much about XFCE, but thought it had
support for the systemd suspend method. So suggest checking the systemd
suspend configuration. XFCE should be able to tell systemd to let XFCE
fully when to suspend, maybe something is broken.

So did I, but I turned around and came back.  When I was doing phone

several years, I realized that I was being unfair because none of them 
had the experience to be aware of most of the things I thought were 
obvious.  It took time and effort, but by the time the call center was 
closed and we were all laid off, my reputation was probably much better, 
and I was able to help some of them learn how to do things better.


Just remember, that there are lots and lots of things that you find 
intuitively obvious that many of the people on this list have never 
encountered.  As an example, how many of you know why you can't get 56K 
speeds on a modem if the port has an 8250 UART?  Or, for something more 
current, why can't you download a program on a Windows box, put it on a 
flash drive, then run it on your Linux box directly?  Yes, the answer 
should be obvious, but you'd be surprised how many people don't know it.


I'm sorry to lecture, but something in your post struck a chord, and I 
had to let it out.  I'll get off of my soap box and let you all get back

I'd prefer to repair, of course.  (I once spent almost a week cleaning 
up an upgrade that hung, but that time, I knew what was needed.)  Alas, 
the boot process just stops, leaving no evidence that I've been able to 
find in either boot.log or /var/log/messages.  I've tried disabling the 
last services to report that they'd started but not finished, with no 
change.  It's not that I don't want to fix it, it's just that I've run 
out of ideas, and am reluctantly biting the bullet.

i don't think that is a problem of DNS but of fedora system. I can't import

It's much more likely to be a problem with your ISP, or possibly a
misconfiguration in your Fedora install.

Just for the heck of it, try pinging with different packet sizes, e.g.:

ping -s 1024 8.8.8.8
ping -s 576 8.8.8.8

and see if some work and some don't. MTU problems can manifest in really
wierd behaviour sometimes.

GNOME battery display doesn't agree with /sys data

[Dave Mitchell]

My laptop, which is running F18 and GNOME, has been plugged in all day.
I've just noticed that the battery level indicator on the top bar is
indicating that the battery is being charged, and is only at 39%.

However:

# cd /sys/class/power_supply/BAT0
# cat energy_full_design
5720
# cat energy_full
54956000
# cat energy_now
52657000

(wait a few minutes, then...)

# cat energy_now
52657000

Which leads me to suspect that my battery is in fact fully charged, and
that there's a bug in GNOME.

So,

1) is my conclusion correct,
2) and if so, what component would I need to report a bug against?

Go to

http://localhost:631/printers/

Then click on the link for your printer.
Then click on the pull down menu for "Maintenance" and choose "Print Test Page".

Then check /var/log/cups/error_log

Major fsck-up

[Joe Zeff]

Well, I've managed to make matters worse on my desktop.  Before doing a 
clean install, I decided to clean up my partitions a tad.  There's an 
old partition that used to be /boot until new requirements made it too 
small and was just sitting there, unmounted, so I used a LiveCD and 
Gparted to remove it.  Then, I added it to /home.  Alas, the program 
hung before completing the job and now, the partition's unrecognizable. 
 Gparted can't correct it and parted can't read it.  Using e2fsck from 
a command line tells me that the superblock is wrong, and I can't work 
out how to find out where to tell me to look.  And, probably because of 
this, my installation now hangs before it gets far enough for me to get 
to a CLI.  I do have a reasonably recent backup, if all goes bad, but 
I'd rather not have to use it.  Does anybody know how to find it, or 
otherwise recover the partition?  I'm tempted to use touch /forcefsck, 
to see if that works, but somehow, I doubt it.  Advice, or pointers to 
suggestions will be very, very welcome.

I would say you have problems with your profile, access rights, maybe?
or your configuration, dns spoof probably? or your connection, packet
loss, occassionally? 

But you dont' say enough and make less effort than the people on this
list to solve your problem. 

Hope this helps: this is the process of loading a web page:

a) browser tries to solve the IP address 

-Try "dig www.google.com" on the command line, you should obtain an IP
address.

b) browser tries to connect to web server

-Try "telnet 173.194.45.83 80" (thats the IP address you found and port
80), and you should obtain an answer like this:

Trying 173.194.45.83...
Connected to 173.194.45.83.
Escape character is '^]'.

c) browser tries to load some web page.

-Immediately after that "Escape character..." write:
GET /

and press ENTER. You should see some HEADERS and then some HTML.

If you arrived here, your connection is ok and the problem are your
profiles (google, mozilla). If not, you have a problem on your
connection. 

Here is an example:

$ dig www.google.com

Thanks Ed , I'm a little rusty at reading the man page, but I'm working

For now I have found this howto:

the wl driver work fine. 

My question is: There is an official Fedora driver (embedded, akmod or

Thanks.

Welcome.

Hint   *Generally* 9 times out of 10 the -i parameter indicates "input" and 
-o indicates output.  In the absence of -o the output is either going to STDOUT 
or a file named as the last argument on the line.

In going to ...printers/ I get an error page with the following:

Well, cupsd isn't listening on 127.0.0.1 which explains why you can't connect 
to it 

I've never had to modify the cupsd.conf but it would seem yours has been

I would

cd /etc/cups
mv cupsd.conf cupsd.conf-old
cp cupsd.conf.default cupsd.conf
restorecon -F cupsd.conf
systemctl restart cups

netstat -nap | grep cups

You should see

[root@meimei cups]# netstat -nap | grep cups
tcp0  0 127.0.0.1:631   0.0.0.0:*   LISTEN
