Network Manager not Retaining Wifi Password

2018-09-13 Thread Stephen Morris

Hi,

    After the last system update in F28 Network Manager is not 
retaining the wifi password entered into its security tab. When I enter 
the password and select apply then 'OK' to exit network manager, when I 
get back in the password is gone. Is anyone else seeing this issue or 
have any tips on how to rectify this issue?



regards,

Steve

This is useful and may be worth a separate standalone package.

I usually use "pv" for pipe progress output.
It apparently has buffer size option too, I'm discovering just now.

Wasn't aware of that program, and it seems to work with dialog.
Only issue I have, is that it is over 60+K in size, while the jetcat-mod is 
about 
8.5K. Since it is only working in ram, testing didn't show improvement making 
buffers larger, so use a 1M with the dd. Since once the disk buffer is full, it 
stays that way for most of the process. Perhaps with newer disks a larger 
buffer might increase speed a little.


jetcat-mod outputs lines ever 5 seconds by the option used, and has the 
format used by the dialog progress bar. G4L is using the dialog menu system 
along with the script for processing.
An output line looks like this.

47.16%   4044.00MB of 8574.67MB time: 0:01:13  55.40MB/sec

For the progress bar the first number is the critical part, rest is just 
displayed 
to show progress so far of the total size, elapsed time so far, and the 
calculated speed so far. With options that have compression, this can greatly 
increase the effective speed if unused space has been zeroed out.

With Fedora Core 3 long ago. Did a clean install on an 80G disk, and then 
did an image and it was 12G in sized. Cleared the unused space and redid 
image, and it dropped size to 2.5G.  Unused space with random data is still 
backed up and doesn't compress well.

Thanks for the info.

Can we assume you're using GNOME?

If so, when you have the security tab open there is what looks like 2 people on 
the
right hand side in the password box.
If you click on that there should be 3 choices.  What is yours set to?

How do I start Xfce from the command line?

2018-09-13 Thread Robert Moskowitz

I have switched a system to multi-user with:

systemctl set-default multi-user.target

Now I want to startup Xfce, and I can't.

I tried startx and startxfce4

both failed.

How do I do this?  Or how do I go back to gui target.  at least temporarily?

thanks

systemctl start display-manager

Does the trick.

Anyone on Ryzen 5 APU - with problems?

2018-09-13 Thread lejeczek via users

hi guys

I wonder, I cannot boot Fedora without - amd_iommu=off - that's the 
first issue. You guys?


I'm on Lenovo Ideapad E485 with AMD Ryzen 5 2500U & F28.

Second issue is - I use external monitor (via HDMI in "join" setup) and 
if system went to sleep or HDMI got disconnect then laptop's display 
would show something that I do not think many of you might have seen, 
unless you are middle-aged at least - it's noise of that kind like in 
old days tube TVs would show when signal was lost.


It looks very funny but also so very wrong :)

But when displays both are okey, and when I lock gnome(@Wayland) session 
and unlock/login again then both screens would be ... kind of blinking, 
infrequently. Reboot is needed to get rid of blinking.


I've tried kernels up to 4.18.5-200.fc28.x86_64

Care to share your thoughts?

many thanks, L.

Open office (LibreOffice) has disappeared from FC30.

2018-09-13 Thread George R Goffe via users
Hi,

I'm hoping this isn't a UFU (user foul up) but I'm trying to use openoffice but 
it is gone from my FC30 system. 


Have I missed something here?

Best regards,

George...

FC30?   You are using Rawhide?  If so, wrong list.

I had a problem with a Ryzen 3 or 5 and I emailed AMD about it. The fix was to
disable C6 state. Has worked with no problems since.

Hi George,

You should migrate from Open Office to Libre Office.  Open Office
is riddled with bugs and is not maintained.

As for Libre Office, they have not been good as of late
about fixing bugs, but it is still a lot better than OO

Get the RPM's from

https://www.libreoffice.org/
