You can only get an immediate *rejection* if there's something there to
reject it.  If you don't have a webserver listening on the HTTP and
HTTPS ports, and don't have a firewall rejecting connections, then the
browser is going to wait for a connection, that's how it works.  A
rejection is very different from a no response (yet).


That's not correct.  If there's a computer at the IP address and nothing 
is listening on the port and the firewall is not configured to drop 
packets, then you will get an immediate reply saying that no one's home. 
 If there's no computer at the IP address and it's not on your local 
subnet, then TCP will keep trying until it times out which will be quite 
a while.  If there's a computer at the IP address and the firewall is 
configured to drop packets, same thing.


localhost is the first case.  There's a computer at the IP address, 
nothing listening (if you're not running a web server on your computer), 
and no firewall.  So you get an immediate reply that you can't connect, 
no delays at all.

Well put. I'd just add that this behaviour is known as "thread

complain about it.

Yes, about fifteen years ago when I began worrying about what might lay

I will stand by my original complaint about the generic menu names, this 
Fedora Linux and not Apple or Windows, both of which confuse me when I

extraneous riddles in the application menu names, Like Mail Reader or 
any of the others cited in this thread.


I should have known that Mail Reader dies not do what it says it does, 
unlike other menu items it just does nothing when clicked.


I thank everyone for their responses to my question.  m open to 
suggestions if anyone has a Linux solution to the mail reader problem. I 
found nothing in Orca configuration that made it intelligible, other 
than that it still looks like a good possibility.

Since the original post in this thread was his own, he mightn't
understand that.

When someone else romps into the middle of a thread of messages and
diverts it, people really don't like that.  Especially when it
prematurely aborts the original thread.

I suspect that it won't help much.  Orca does appear to be the most 
likely offering, mainly via Gnome.  Searching for 'gnome orca' suggests 
several sources of help.  'orca' by itself will offer boat trips...

Applications need to avoid name clashes.   Ubuntu has the "snap" package
system and
a "snap" program.  The European Space Agency (ESA) has the "SeNtinel
Application Platform" (SNAP) that provides a "snap" program.

ESA SNAP has a Python library called snappy.

https://snap.stanford.edu/snappy/
Snap.py is a Python interface for SNAP. SNAP is a general purpose, high
performance system for analysis and manipulation of large networks.

python-snappy · PyPI 

https://pypi.org/project/python-snappy/
Python library for the snappy compression library from Google.

It is probably time to have a system of unique identifiers.  Package
managers would need to provide a way to search for these ID's.

That is what the XDG Desktop entry spec[1] is for.  It helps the
desktop environment know what applications are available and what they
are for. 

With Evoluion, the .desktop file provides has a lot of hints that it
is a mail reader.  For example, these are all set:  

X-GNOME-FullName=Evolution Mail and Calendar

Comment=Manage your email, contacts and schedule

Keywords=email;calendar;contact;addressbook;task;

Categories=GNOME;GTK;Office;Email;Calendar;ContactManagement;X-Red-Hat-Base;

I believe the categories also will make the standard GNOME desktop
environment let you choose it as a default email reader.  I took a look
at the Thunderbird .desktop file too, it also has similar information
for helping the user know it is an email client.

Both of these packages include a .desktop file that has dozens of
different translations of the name and comments to make it easier for
non-english speakers to understand what it is for.

XDG Desktop entry spec says:

The desktop entry specification describes desktop entries: files d
escribing information about an application such as the name, icon,
and description. These files are used for application launchers and
for creating menus of applications that can be launched.


That doesn't address the problem of totally different programs

names.

I once used text to speech alerts for  things that needed immediate
attention (server room overtemp, file server or satellite receiver
gone offline).   It was cheaper than a pager and no paperwork was
required.  At the time, festival had better voices than espeak (and
festival currently has a Fedora package).

While that's good, it's bad user-experience to have to hover over each
item in a menu to find out what it is, instead of being able to easily
tell just by reading the menu.

At least in old Gnome, MATE, and some other desktops, you still have a
structured menu where you can find things.  The desktops which have no
menus and just splatter all your applications as a huge page, or pages,
 of icons in alphabetical order (like tablets and mobile phones), are a
user-interface disgrace.  Touch screens are all the more worse as you
can't hover a pointer over an icon for a hint, you've got to do a long
press and wait.  Everything about it makes it slower to use.

You want a universal registry of software names?  You are going to be
in a very sad situation if you expect anyone to adhere to it.  What
are you going to do, fine people for creating software with a similar
name?  Some sort of global copyright system?  Good luck.

And if you think that a UUID would be better, you're out of your
mind. That's even harder for humans to understand.

The point of the XDG Desktop Entry spec is to provide as much
information as you can about software to make it easier to tell what
it is.

I would argue that composing and sending email is part of the
definition of an email client.  The evolution desktop entry actually
says it does calendaring (which I don't consider part of an email
client) and managing addressbook.  Spam management is not something
i'd even think about in a client anymore, its mostly server-side
anymore. 

No idea why your software says "mail reader", I used the Evolution and
Thunderbird desktop entry as an example of how it is actually
implemented in GNOME using the XDG.

I agree that the lack of hierarchical menus is a pain in modern GNOME
implementations.  The keywords help for if you start typing at the
application menu, as well as finding the software in the GUI Software
application.  I feel like the deficiency isn't in the Desktop Entry
spec, but how the desktop environment is implemented, which is why I
still use MATE.

I'm having the same problem since around 2-3 weeks. I forgot for how
long exactly. I'm on Gnome, so it is not KDe specific. It's more
obvious in a text field with a lot of text, like in a long thread on
forum. I suspect spell checker, but i have to test it more closely.

Re: Firefox slow and laggy, esp. typing online ?

2021-01-25 Thread linux guy
I've been updating Firefox and everything else whenever they arrive in
Fedora33/stable.  This is the first time I've noticed the slowness.   And
the slowness isn't the same on every web page.  Some are worse than
others.  Gmail, for instance, works fine.

Is this a Linux/KDE issue or a Firefox issue ?


Hard to tell, just from what you've given us.  Do you see this in any 
other programs?  Does Firefox tend to go dark when it slows down?

Evolution is a groupware suite. It includes email but also those other

For some people it is, for others it isn't. Evolution doesn't have any
built-in spam management but can use anti-spam tools such as Bogofilter
or SpamAssassin.

I'm seeing this on multiple OS's and browsers.Turning off ad-blockers
seems to help, so I'm wondering if there is a new campaign among
advertisers to make people stop using ad-blockers.

I think I found the problem.  That battery in my wireless keyboard was
low.   Interesting thing is... it didn't affect all applications the same.
Some were much slower and others weren't really affected.  Interesting.

You're saying typing into the search bar of YouTube is very slow?
If that is this case, I have no problems.

FWIW, I don't use FF that often and only have 3 extensions installed.

OT: using an old tablet PC as an input device for laptop, both running F33

2021-01-25 Thread Ranjan Maitra
Hi,

I have an old Gateway PC tablet running F33. It is old and the only reason I 
have it around is the tablet function. However, I really do not like it that 
much, and I was wondering if I can use it as an input device (to simply use the 
touchscreen tablet part) for my Dell M3800 laptop. I am not sure how to go 
about it. Is it possible?

Many thanks and best wishes,
Ranjan

    That wasn't a command.  That was a search string to enter

The "site:..." should have been a clue.


FWIW, I did't think any "clue" was necessary.  I don't know how more 
direct I could have been
when I wrote:  "A google search in the form" directly proceeding the 
line.


Maybe I should have included it all on the same line?

A google search of the form: rkhunter libkeyutils.so.1.9 
site:bugzilla.redhat.com 


But, I put it on its own line thinking it would be easier to copy the 
entire line with a quick

triple mouse click.

Sorry Ed, I'm a bit slow. I read that line and it didn't register, I 
thought it was a command to tell rkhunter to go to the specified site to 
look for info on libkeyutils.so.1.9.


regards,
Steve

A possibly simple method would be to turn on desktop sharing on your

Are you trying to upgrade everything or just one package at once? This kind
of error is common when attempting to do a piecemeal upgrade.

In any case, something is out of sync, and it knows there is an update for
x86_64 but doesn't see one for i686, and you have both installed.

Is this for a supercomputer cluster system? Because if it is not, I would be
surprised if you have a use for this particular package, and `dnf remove
rdma-core` is going to be the easiest resolution.




Hi Matthew,

I just did a
   # dnf remove rdma-core-32.0-1.fc33.x86_64
and now `dnf upgrade` is happy.

Go figure...

Thank you for the help!

I ran into the same thing yesterday, however, I have never explicitly

Nothing that I'm aware of.  I'll post if it slows down again.

Thanks for the attention.  Fedora rocks !

Plasma on Xorg Fails to Start After Last System Update

2021-01-25 Thread Stephen Morris

Hi,
    Three days ago I did a dnf system upgrade to apply all available 
Fedora updates. I have now tried to start Plasma under Xorg, but it now 
refuses to start with a crash in ksplashqml, and if I press 
ctrl-alt-delete to try to logout the ksmserver-greeter also crashes. 
Plasma under Wayland runs quite happily albeit without resolution 
scaling. Gnome under Wayland runs fine without scaling and Gnome under 
Xorg also runs fine. How do I determine why the apps are failing with 
Plasma under Xorg now?


regards,
Steve
