If your not otherwise using sqlite you can grab Firefox 3.6 from Rawhide. 
I'm running it now.

yum --enablerepo=rawhide update firefox

You'll get an update for firefox, xulrunner and sqlite.

I have no idea when I last printed a web page. Other than a long long

I'd stick with kmod-nvidia vs. akmod-nvidia

And there are a few options for disabling Noveau and there are some 
SELinux issues as well.

See http://rpmfusion.org/Howto/nVidia for the info and howtos.

I just opened it in Firefox and it loaded just fine. No crashes.

Perhaps you're you've got addons installed that are causing the problem?

Update Dependancies broken for the past few days.

2013-09-22 Thread Scott Beamer
Greetings all,

I'm running KDE  on Fedora 19 X64

For the past 2-3 days I've had problems updating a number of packages
because of failed dependencies.

For a while I figured it was a problem that would resolve itself once
the mirrors were updated, but so far, the problem persists.

II've done 'yum clean all' numerous times to no avail.

Is this a problem on my end or Fedora's end?

Here is the the output of 'yum update':

How does one request a new RPM package group?

2022-05-17 Thread Scott Beamer

Greetings,

I'd like to see an RPM package group added that would include all the 
KDE-specific games.  Something like the way the Debian/Ubuntu "kdegames" 
packages depends on all the official KDE games.


They're not included with either of the current KDE package groups and 
it's a pain to  add them install them individually.


How would one go about requesting the addition of a package group to 
Fedora?  Is this done through Bugzilla, or is there anther way of going 
about this?


TIA.

In this case, filing an issue with the KDE SIG is probably the best approach:
https://pagure.io/fedora-kde/SIG/

In general, the groups are defined by fedora-comps. You can submit an
issue or pull request at:
https://pagure.io/fedora-comps

New error message when selecting Windows Boot Loader from the GRUB menu

2022-08-04 Thread Scott Beamer

Greetings,

After a recent Fedora 36 update, I'm getting an error message when 
selecting "Windows Boot Manager" from the GRUB menu.  Instead of booting 
like it had previously, it gives me an almost blank screen with the 
following text in the upper left:


    /EndEntire

And all I can do at that point is shut down and restart my computer, go 
to it's boot menu, and sekect

Windows Boot Manager, in order to boot into Windows.

I've been dual-booting Fedora 36 and Windows for weeks prior to this one 
without issue.


Google hasn't been of much help.

Any suggestions?

TIA

Scott

That version.

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2115202

I commented on the bug.  Thanks for the link.


dnf downgrade will get you the -29 version which is a ways back, but also easy and will 
get you working. But to avoid it getting updated and breaking again in the near future 
you'll need to add an exclude in the dnf.conf (man dnf.conf) for "grub2-*"

Set a reminder though, you'll eventually want to update it and it might even 
prevent a system upgrade from getting a new version (or even failing, I'm not 
really sure).

Thanks.  I went with that and added the exclude ti dnf.conf


An alternative is to:
rpm -qa | grep grub2

That'll get you a list of all the grub2 packages you'lll need to download from 
here:

https://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=1977609

That's the -42 version which should work. Then you have the packages locally and you can 
just put them in a directory and if you do an update that steps on this version again, 
you can just cd to that dir and do "dnf downgrade *rpm" and it'll use the local 
rpm files.


I'm too lazy for that ish.  I'll just hold on to the -29 version for a while 
and follow up in a week.


If you have a Fedora account or RGBZ account you can add yourself to the bug.
I'm too lazy for that ish.  I'll just hold on to the -29 version for a while

I do and I did.

I've managed to mess up GNOME Boses & I don't know how to fix it.

2022-08-21 Thread 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.

Create a new Firefox profile and try the previous suggestion for

Open a terminal and type "firefox -P" (without the quotes). There you 
can create a new profile with the default settings. Then right-click 
on the toolbar, then select "Customize toolbar" .  In bottom the left 
corner it says "Title Bar".  Uncheck that box and click "done" (bottom

If that doesn't work, then I dunno.

Fix failed DNF upgrade?

2022-11-08 Thread Scott Beamer

Greetings,

I recently read somewhere that there is a dnf command to finish 
upgrading when an upgrade crashes during an upgrade. I tried Googling to 
find it just now and have come up empty.


Does anyone know what it is?

Thanks.

Not sure if this is what you are refering to, but one option that saves a bunch of time 
in that situation is to add "--setopt=keepcache=1" to the dnf command to make 
sure it does not have to re-download stuff.


Nope, thanks, but that's not it.

You're really posting on the wrong list for CentOS, but CentOS 8 went
end-of-life in December 2022.  They'll probably remove various CentOS 8
files from their servers.

If  you want to use a CentOS that is still being updated, you can use
CentOS 7 until mid 2024 (it goes end-of-life in June).  And there's
CentOS Stream which is not going end-of-life, but I don't use it, and
don't know anything further about it.

I've yet to decide what to do about it, I run a server on it because
Fedora's life cycle is way too short for my liking.  I really don't
want such rapid major upheavals to a server.


There are several newer distros that picked up where CentOS 8 left off. 
 Take a look at AlmaLinux (https://almalinux.org/) or Rocky Linux 
(https://rockylinux.org/) -- both sourced from upstream RHEL and are 
100% binary/bug-for-bug compatible with RHEL.  They even provide easy 
migration tools from CentOS.

DNF upgrade. Not sure what's up here.

2023-03-04 Thread Scott Beamer

Greetings.

I just ran "sudo dnf upgrade", and among the items that flew by, was this:

[...]

  Cleanup  : gtk-update-icon-cache-3.24.36-1.fc37.x86_64 
 41/42
  Cleanup  : gnome-software-43.4-1.fc37.x86_64 
 42/42
  Running scriptlet: systemd-resolved-251.13-3.fc37.x86_64 
 42/42
  Running scriptlet: gnome-software-43.4-1.fc37.x86_64 
 42/42
/usr/lib/tmpfiles.d/sddm.conf:6: Line references path below legacy 
directory /var/run/, updating /var/run/sddm → /run/sddm; please update 
the tmpfiles.d/ drop-in file accordingly.


  Verifying: cups-1:2.4.2-10.fc37.x86_64 
  1/42

  Verifying: cups-1:2.4.2-5.fc37.x86_64

[...]

So what exactly does "/usr/lib/tmpfiles.d/sddm.conf:6: Line references 
path below legacy directory /var/run/, updating /var/run/sddm → 
/run/sddm; please update the tmpfiles.d/ drop-in file accordingly." 
mean, and how do I fix it?


TIA

Scott

--disablerepo=updates-testing


Right after I posted, the problem seems to have resolved itself.

Never mind. :)
