Re: No internet on resume

[fedora]

Hi Ben
did you check to see whether there is a network restarter shell script in
/usr/lib64/pm-utils/sleep.d/?

something like:

 /usr/lib64/pm-utils/sleep.d/55NetworkManager

it again, but now, reverting to 4.15.4 does not stop it.


Would greatly appreciate if someone knows how to fix this.

Not automatically (I asked this some months ago). You have to start by
creating a UEFI partition, which will require a bit of surgery. In the

Re: KVM image fails to resume after f38->40 upgrade

[fedora]

I still do not have a solution.

Changing the CPU model in the vm details is mostly "to be applied on next boot",
but I am not in a position to boot (I need to unpause).

If anyone understands what model to set, or how else to get past this issue 
then please offer your wisdom.

As an aside, what lead to this problem in the first place? The same problem 
when booting my last f30 kernel
so it must be (?) some libvirt change.

I hope that as a last resort I will be able to cold boot the vm, linux is 
rather good with crash recovery.
Last resort.

TIA

Assuming myth follows the basic RE syntax, square brackets must be included in

immediately follow the opening square bracket.  This should do it.

another f38->f40 issue: network if is renamed.

[fedora]

I notice that the network interface 'eth1' is now renamed 'enp2s0' but eth0 is 
left alone.

How do I stop this rename? It breaks a number of thing for me.

I note that some interfaces are configured in
/etc/sysconfig/networking/devices/
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 579 Dec  9  2022 ifcfg-eth0
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 653 Jul 13 20:11 ifcfg-eth1
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root  55 Dec  9  2022 route-eth0

but many more are in
/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/
where there is no ifcfg-eth1.

Is there some confusion between the two places?

Maybe I need to put ifcfg-eth1 with the others? I will test...

Tried, and got a failure:
[network] You are using 'network' service provided by 
'network-scripts', which are now deprecated.
[network] 'network-scripts' will be removed from distribution in near 
future.
[network] It is advised to switch to 'NetworkManager' instead for 
network management.

So NM does at least look in network-scripts, should I empty that directory?

ifcfg-eth0 in both places is a bit different, which one is used? I am happy to 
do a cleanup.

NM also overwrites by handmade /etc/resolv.conf...

Looks like a mess to me.

What does it break?


I have a number of scripts, some tcpdump, some fw rules, some data collection, 
and such.
I see command failures when attempting to use eth1.


You can edit the connection with nmcli or directly in 
/etc/NetworkManager/system-connections/.
In the "[connection]" section, add or edit the "interface-name=" line. Set it to what you 
want, presumably "eth1".


Looks like it may be what I need. I see two connection configurations for eth1. 
Should I remove one?

$ sudo ls -1 /etc/NetworkManager/system-connections/
'System eth1-9c92fad9-6ecb-3e6c-eb4d-8a47c6f50c04.nmconnection'
# has 'interface-name=eth1'
'System eth1.nmconnection'
# has 'interface-name=eth1'
'Wired connection 1.nmconnection'
# does not have 'interface-name='

Maybe adding a name to the last one (eth0) will help?

Looking at the system log I see:

kernel: r8169 :05:00.0 eth0: RTL8168h/8111h, b4:2e:99:83:6d:7d, XID 541, 
IRQ 161
# this is correct
kernel: e1000e :02:00.0 eth1: (PCI Express:2.5GT/s:Width x1) 
00:1b:21:3a:56:72
# this is correct
kernel: e1000e :02:00.0 enp2s0: renamed from eth1
# this is what I do not want.

So, despite having 'interface-name=eth1', the interface is renamed. Why?

I will also try to boot with cmd line option 'net.ifnames=0' which was 
suggested.

The reason for the renaming is to ensure that the interface names are 
consistent in every boot. It is an issue on some systems that an interface may 
be eth0 on one boot the eth1 on the next.


I do not understand the logic. If the name is assigned to a MAC then it will be 
stable regardless, on every boot.


Consider using the new naming so you have stability.
FYI it’s been this way for many years, not sure why this
was not the case in f38 for you.

Also the use of the ifcfg files is legacy, you should migrate to NetworkManager.


I agree, I need to bite the bullet. A difficult new trick for an old dog.

I see that I can use nm-connection-editor (GUI) or nmcli (cli).

Is the "old" 'interface' term equivalent to nm 'connection' or 'device'? For 
example when used with tcpdump?

'nmcli device show' lists two devices, enp2s0 and eth0.
'nmcli connection show' lists 4 ether connections,
'nmcli' shows
enp2s0: connected to Wired connection 2
eth0: unmanaged
'nm-connection-editor; lists 4 ether connections, two have 1/2 days "Last 
Used", two say 4-years/never.

Probably safe to delete the two old ones. Then sort out the other two.

So a mishmash...


In f41 the ifcfg support is proposed to be fully remived from Fedora.

This is not true.
The eth devices are numbered in the order they are discovered by the kernel.
That is why they can change on each boot if discovery timing has races.


Agreed, but this is not my point. I understand that the devices are initially 
named randomly,
but then the ifcfg scripts rename them based on the MAC, like
DEVICE=eth1
HWADDR=00:1b:21:3a:56:72

I thought that in the end, I can name the interfaces any way I want this way.

Nevertheless, if fedora is moving to nm I should redo my network configuration 
that way
and remove all the then unused (I assume) scripts.

eth0 (B4:2E:99:83:6D:7D)

Should I remove the last (very old) connections? Maybe not because I will end 
up with two eth1 connections.

What I really want is:
Wired connection 1  eth0 (B4:2E:99:83:6D:7D)# like it is now
Wired connection 2  eth1 (00:1B:21:3A:56:72)# adjusted

Can I simply do this using the GUI?

then please offer your wisdom.

As an aside, what lead to this problem in the first place? The same problem 
when booting my last f30 kernel
so it must be (?) some libvirt change.

I hope that as a last resort I will be able to cold boot the vm, linux is 
rather good with crash recovery.
Last resort.


I ran into this as well.  Something changed with CPU flags.  I couldn't find 
any way to get it to resume, it will most likely need to be restarted.


I tested a restart (using a clone) and it came up.

I only needed to change the watchdog

Re: KVM image fails to resume after f38->40 upgrade [ping]

[fedora]

I did not receive any answers here, and none for a thread I created

https://lists.libvirt.org/archives/list/us...@lists.libvirt.org/thread/DHYRALPVDMT2LFT2WYXRKHIOU6IAQVBX/

So, can anyone recommend a list/forum where this issue is more likely to 
attract some help?

TIA

Warning - I have no real idea regarding the underlying issue and
therefore how to address it *properly*.

Shot-in-the-dark ideas...

If you haven't already done so, you can try:
- exporting the VM, deleting it without deleting the storage, and then
importing it back in (reattaching storage as needed)
- creating a new VM and attaching the existing storage

But tbh my best guess is that these won't help.  You may just have to
boot without restoring from the saved state.


I looked into the saved memory (e4.saved for me) and I see that it contains the 
e4.xml file
that is usually in /etc/libvirt/qemu/.

I suspect(*1) that regardless of what I do to the VM storage, an attempt to 
resume from the saved state
will still fail.

Though I am now trying this:

1) save a copy of the storage/state disk. 'cmp' the files. [OK]
2) run the VM (not resume). Shut it down. I already confirmed that it works. 
[OK]
3) resume (restore) and see what happens. [NO]

(*1) notice that the restore command does not name the domain, only points to 
the save status file.
 All status probably comes from the embedded e4.xml there.

Maybe extract the xml file from e4.saved and use it for the VM?


I do not understand this. Why extract it? I am rather convinced that the 
embedded xml is used on resume,
and the one in /etc is not consulted. Maybe you can explain where to extract it 
to.


Just
long enough to get it resumed and properly shutdown, then go back to
the current version.

Is there really anything important in the paused VM that will be lost
if you just reboot it?


Not really. I already did just that and it booted just fine (from a quick 
check).
I feel that proceeding to use it will be OK. It is just what crash+reboot looks 
like
for a real linux machine, and I had this many times and never lost much.


While this may be an interesting academic
exercise, it seems to be "off in the weeds",


"off in the weeds" is a good observation, and it really is just me wanting to 
understand
the situation and how it can be resolved properly. I hoped someone here knows 
how to resume,
I have only rudimentary understanding of libvirt and friends.


and even if you get the
paused VM resumed, I would have a certain amount of distrust for it
going forward.


If I can resume this image "correctly" then I will trust it more than a cold 
boot.

And BTW, I do have good backups of files that I care about. Naturally.

I think this was discussed on https://discussion.fedoraproject.org 
<https://discussion.fedoraproject.org> a while ago.
Sorry I do not have a link to the discussion. You should be able to search and 
find it.


Tried many searches but failed to find the thread. If you (or anyone else) can 
find it then do tell.


I think the issue is that some defaults changed in KVM/libvirt and that meant 
that the checks
done to see if the resume of the VM can be done do not pass.
There was a way to change the defaults are get the VM to resume.


My understanding is that the saved state requires vmx-* features which are not 
available now (f40),
but were enabled when the vm was saved under f38.

Either the kernel turns these off, or a mitigation does this, or something else.

I tried many boot command options (one at a time):
dis_ucode_ldr
mitigations=off
kvm-intel.nested=1
but I still see (after a reboot) in lscpu:
KVM: Mitigation: VMX disabled

How to I force vmx to be enabled?

Apologies in advance if this is too OT.

I recently installed a new system based on an MSI B650-P motherboard
with an AMD Ryzen 7600 and Corsair DDR5 RAM. The RAM specs show a
recommended frequency of 5200 MHz, but the UEFI screen shows it running
at 4800MHz (even though it also notes the correct spec). Here's a
screenshot link:

https://drive.google.com/file/d/1Z21GpYtO9jgNA5RDVh6qz2EShbVCRWCw/view?usp=sharing

The MSI docs are atrocious and I can't see any way of changing the DRAM
frequency.

Not a big deal really but if anyone has any ideas I'd appreciate the
feedback.

I do not have this mobo or DDR5 but thought one should consider the mobo as 
limiting the speed.
Some, will limit the DRAM speed as more DIMMs are added.

Try to install only one DIMM and see if it makes a difference.

Also, I see in the image that you installed in slots A2/B2. Is this what the 
doco recommends?

What is the correct way to resume this image?


Sadly, no solution was found so I decided to cold boot and move on.

I tried to boot with a number of command line options to no avail.

Ext4 errror?

[fedora]

Hi listers

i got file system errors on a new machine (hw errors should therefore 
not be an issue, also smartctl does not indicate any errors), which 
holds two disks on SATA controllers. Both disks contain a fully fleged 
Fedora 13, so that i can boot from either of them.

i usually boot from the first disk, and i take care not to cross-mount 
the second disk or to unmount cross-mounts before hibernating.

[r...@myws ~]# uname -a
Linux myws.lan 2.6.33.5-124.fc13.x86_64 #1 SMP Fri Jun 11 09:38:12 UTC 
2010 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
[r...@myws ~]#

The complete log of a boot cycle follows in the next message.

The file systems error manifests itself as follows in /var/log/messages:


Jul  5 07:04:59 myws kernel: EXT4-fs error (device dm-0): 
ext4_free_inode: bit already cleared for inode 136802
Jul  5 07:04:59 myws kernel: EXT4-fs error (device dm-0): 
ext4_free_inode: bit already cleared for inode 136803


When this error occurs i can no longer do such simple things as

touch /tmp/abcd.txt

which at this time gives me "No such file or directory"

to shut down the system, i usually use the hibernate function (i.e. save 
to the swap space), i mostly do not reboot the system. But then, after 
some resume/thaw cycles from the swap space, the above error happens, 
and i have to reboot.

when rebooting, the system goes through one ore two fsck cycles whith 
"File System has been modified, reboot needed" and reboots itself.

when the system comes up after that, the above error does not happen 
anymore, but i am not sure, whether the system is in the same state as 
before, i.e. i am not sure, whether i have lost data.

for /dev/sda (i.e. the first disk), the setup is as follows:

Can't you do a diff between the yum logs or anaconca.logs of both 
installations and

Re: Install Fedora 13 from Hard Drive

[fedora]

jambo

i usually download the full iso dvd  and the netinst iso CD.
i mount the full iso on a web-server, so that the relevant directory is 
visible via the web, and burn the netinst iso CD.
i create a kickstart file. this ks points to the web, with the full iso:

url --url http://install.mydomain.com/f13

except if i install on the web-server itself. then this line looks like:

harddrive --partition=/dev/sda3 --dir=/software/fedora/

then i boot the server to be installed from the netinst CD and give it 
the approp ks link:

ks=http://install.mydomain.com/ks/myserver.ks.txt

as kernel parameter.

Re: logitech mouse problem - fedora 12

[fedora]

Did you check to see, whether your Display manager is running? Display 
manager (for Gnome), by default, is metacity.
to check:
ps xa |grep metacity

to restart:
metacity --replace &

if you selected a different Display Manager, issue commands accordingly.

From when on is IPv6 address information available on an interface?

[fedora]

Hi listers
I have activated an IPv6 router in the local network. Every host has, as 
expectect, grabbed the prefix and constructed its own Link local, Site 
local (if requested), and Global addresses. Problem is: from when on is 
IPv6 adress information available for a certain interface?

I have a laptop which I normally use via Ethernet (interface eth0). But 
at times, I use it via wlan0. As I have installed a test enironment for 
two Web applications on the laptop, I need to dynamically change the DNS 
for these applications, depending on which IP address (IPv4 as well as 
IPv6) the laptop is on. I had developped a script, which automatically 
changes DNS for the laptop, when I restart the network on the laptop 
(/etc/init.d/network restart). The IPv4 address for the laptop comes in 
via DHCP, IPv6 address comes in via neighbor and router solicitation. 
After DHCP and neigbor/router solicitation, the script to update the 
dynamic DNS asks for the actual IPv4 address, which is readily available 
at that point in time. Then it asks also for the IPv6 address, and gets 
the empty string. A snippet of the output of this DNS update script when 
used with wlan0 follows:

...
Shutting down loopback interface:  [  OK  ]
Bringing up loopback interface:[  OK  ]
Bringing up interface eth0:
Determining IP information for eth0... failed; no link present.  Check 
cable?
[FAILED]
Bringing up interface wlan0:
Determining IP information for wlan0...++ ip -o -f inet6 addr show dev 
wlan0 scope site
+ ad=
++ echo
++ /usr/local/scripts/extract-field.pl '' 4
+ ax=
++ echo
++ cut -d/ -f1
+ ay=
+ echo
server ns.mydomain.com
update delete dick.dyn.lan A
update delete dick.dyn.lan 
update add dick.dyn.lan 86400 A 192.168.97.20
update add dick.dyn.lan 86400 
update delete bg.dyn.lan CNAME
update add bg.dyn.lan 86400 CNAME dick.dyn.lan
update delete auth.dyn.lan CNAME
update add auth.dyn.lan 86400 CNAME dick.dyn.lan
send
Creating key...
...

As you can see from the DNS update command list, the IPv4 address is 
present, whereas the IPv6 address is empty. The IPv6 address is asked 
for via the command
ip -o -f inet6 addr show dev wlan0 scope site
which returns an empty string.

When, after this procedure, I recall the DNS update script manually, 
everything works fine including the IPv6 address.

Has anybody had similar troubles when asking for IPv6 address data from 
an interface?

Thanks in advance for any hint.

Re: Fedora 15 Doesn't started

Is possibly the boot manager not correctly installed? Do you get any 
boot screen with kernel-name?
Otherwise, try to boot from your recovery/installation CD, go into 
recover and set up your boot manager.

Fedora 15 - copy and paste problem

[fedora]

Hi all
when it came to upgrade gnome within Fedora 13, i could no longer use 
the mouse-middle-button to paste the clipboard: i had to click both left 
and right mouse keys.
OK, thats past.
Yesterday, however, i installed Fedora 15 and now neither of the keys 
work: when i strike text with the right mouse key pressed, no text is 
copied to the clipboard, and when i either push both left and right keys 
of the mouse or i click the middle mouse key, nothing happens, no 
clipboard copied to the input line.
the only way i can do copy-and-past now is to strike the text i want to 
copy and then use the edit menu of the respective application, and click 
copy there, and then move to the input line and click paste in the edit 
menu of the respective application.

am i missing something with the mouse-key emulation in the X server?

How can i get back to the old Unix style behaviour?

thansk for all hints.

Back to fedora 13

[fedora]

Installation here:
powernow-k8: Found 1 AMD Athlon(tm) II X4 630 Processor processors (4 
cpu cores) (version 2.20.00)
4GB RAM
ATI Radeon RS 740 chip


After a lost week of trying, googling, trying again, experimenting, 
booting... i decided to go back to fedora 13. i need to have an 
operational computer, not an experimental one.

1.
Desktop Background: can't create a Gradient: you can only enter one color

2.
VirtualBox, upon suspend/hibernate, gets a TERM signal, upon which all 
started VMs ask, whether they should get the Shutdown signal, etc.

3.
Impossible to configure two-click copy-and-paste. Upon selecting some 
text, you always have to use right click and then "copy" and again right 
click and then "paste". Emulate3Buttons in /etc/X11/xorg.conf does nothing.

4.
You cannot edit the gnome-top panel manually. Drag-and-Drop from the 
Preferrred list (dash) is no longer possible, if you have reinstalled 
the GNOME Desktop Group.

5.
the shutdown menu, when selected from the username menu on the right top 
corner, does not show up in many situations, possibly depending on 
whether VirtualBox is running or not?

6.
After installation, it is no longer possible to change the time 
presentation in the top panel, e.g. you cannot select "date and time"

7.
After reinstallation of GNOME Desktop Group, the bottom panel/status 
panel does no longer show up, and no way to change panel configuration 
manually.

8.
With gnome-shell functionality, changing the workspace only takes 4 
mouse clicks, whereas it requires 1 single mouse click when using the 
bottom workspace selecter (if it where presented)

9.
using compiz window-manager is no longer possible with fedora 15, you 
can't bring compiz away from its start-up failure 
"GLX_EXT_texture_from_pixmap is missing"

10.
you cannot edit the launchers presented in the dash, like e.g. to add 
geometry parameters to the gnome-terminal-launcher

11.
Firefox 4, sometimes (?), does not execute Javascipt correctly, 
parameters from the HTML page are not copied correctly?

12.
The system log /var/log/messages is full of "[drm:drm_edid_block_valid] 
*ERROR* EDID checksum is invalid, remainder is 152" and follow-ups, 
which apparently are generated every 5 seconds.

13.
you cannot run gnome-shell with the kernel parameter NOMODESET set, 
which would avoid the nuisance of number 12.

14.
But in contrast, the NOMODESET kernel parameter is set after 
installation: fedora 15 disables itself.

15.
impossible to prevent gnome-screensaver to lock the session after 
resuming from suspend/hibernate. The lock/nolock switch in system 
settings/screen is changing nothing. Only killing the gnome-screensaver 
process altoghether helps.

16.
After once selecting Suspend from the top-right menu Power-down, you 
cannot access Hibernate any more. The only choices you got afer that, 
are Suspend directly in the top-right menu, and various types of 
shutting down from the top-right menu Power Off when pressing ALT. In a 
terminal window you may enter pm-hibernate.

17.
Fedora 15 Kickstart installation is broken and can be started only after 
applying a patch to the installer

Hi Gene
hey, that sounds like an idea.
Or i may wait for F16, probably some of my problems will be solved therein.

named shows different results

[fedora]

Hi listers

I have a very curious problem here:

I changed some CNAME entries in the named for a specific domain this 
morning.

when i now (from an internal workstation) do a
dig @nameserver cname

i get a different answer, depending on whether @nameserver points to the 
local address 192.168 or on the public ip address 212.90. of the 
nameserver

in the first case, named returns the old (incorrect) address of cname.
in the second case, named returns the new (correct) address of cname.

when i let @nameserver point to the secondary nameserver, the above 
difference does not show up, it always returns the correct address.

from the outside world, the new (correct) value is always returned.

what could the problem be and how to avoid it?

thanks in advance

suomi

Re: named shows different results

[fedora]

Hi Tim
i think the problem comes from the different views a DNS provides.

in my config i should be more specific about which zone belongs to which 
view. On an internal view (which by default i catch when accessing the 
DNS on the internal network) it may be of no importance when an external 
address changes.
because i am not so familiar with views-configuring in named, as a 
workaround, i told the DHCPD to give me the external address for all 
DNS, so that i can get a hold of the external view of the DNS. And in 
the external view, the addresses are correct.

Re: New Fedora DVD 64 Install replaced my previous GRUB2 info! (Dual Boot)

[fedora]

Hi
to be a bit more specific about chainloading:

This is my /boot/grub/menu.lst:

# grub.conf generated by anaconda
#
# Note that you do not have to rerun grub after making changes to this file
# NOTICE:  You have a /boot partition.  This means that
#  all kernel and initrd paths are relative to /boot/, eg.
#  root (hd0,0)
#  kernel /vmlinuz-version ro root=/dev/sda2
#  initrd /initrd-[generic-]version.img
#boot=/dev/sda
default=0
timeout=11
#splashimage=(hd0,0)/grub/splash.xpm.gz
#hiddenmenu
title Fedora (2.6.34.9-69.fc13.x86_64)
 root (hd0,0)
 kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.34.9-69.fc13.x86_64 ro 
root=UUID=f5ec98fc-01eb-4f37-b932-72d0d07cf25b rd_NO_LUKS rd_NO_LVM 
rd_NO_MD rd_NO_DM LANG=en_US.UTF-8 SYSFONT=latarcyrheb-sun16 KEYTABLE=sg 
nomodeset
 initrd /initramfs-2.6.34.9-69.fc13.x86_64.img
title chain to second disk
 rootnoverify (hd1,4)
 chainloader +1



The first "title" boots from the first partition of the first Disk (root 
(hd0,0))
the second shows the menu (chainloads) from the fifth partition of the 
second Disk (rootnoverify (hd1, 4))
Check to see on your system, where the approp partitions with the 
systems are and set up the grub menus in these partitions. Then install 
grub in the MBR with a /boot/grub/menu.lst like the above.

[SOLVED] Ext4 errror?

[fedora]

Hi Bill
on July 5 you replied kindly on my message.
The last few days i mean to have solved the problem by facing out LVM. 
As you said LVM adds considerable overhead and makes the system error 
prone. What previousely has been on an lv is now on a real partition. 
Serial disk access is now twice as fast as with LVM, you see that when 
resuming from hibernation: 116 MB/s as opposed to 60 MB/s

You have multiple boot drives, LVM, barriers with SMP, and repeated 
hibernate.
You didn't mention compiling with suspend2 patches (or whatever it's called
today), have you done that, too? I would start by not hibernating and 
seeing if
that's the issue, turn off barriers and see if that's the issue. Right 
now you
call this an ext4 problem, but I've been running TB of storage on ext4 
since the
early FC9 days, and not having issues. But stock hibernate has issues on 
some of
my machines, barrier code is still changing and has had issues with SMP 
in the
past, and LVM is really not needed unless things are likely to change 
(and adds
overhead, and possibly has issues with barriers).

I have the feeling that you have an overly high ratio of solution to 
problem on
the complexity scale.

Re: Fedora13

[fedora]

I just install 4 partitions as you may see from /etc/fstab:
[r...@casablanca ~]# cat /etc/fstab

#
# /etc/fstab
# Created by anaconda on Tue Jul 27 13:18:24 2010

sysfs   /syssysfs   defaults0 0
proc/proc   procdefaults0 0
/data/home  /home   autobind0 0
[r...@casablanca ~]#

I was not too certain, wheather /boot can be mounted on ext4 with F13, 
so instead of investigating very far, I created a separate partition 
with ext3.
I loop-mount /home into /data so that erverything which may become large 
and larger is in /data. I also link mysql, named, and ldap from /var/lib 
into /data.

The partition sizes are as follows:

[r...@casablanca ~]# df -k
Filesystem   1K-blocks  Used Available Use% Mounted on
/dev/sda2 12095032   5612516   5868116  49% /
tmpfs  1964368   240   1964128   1% /dev/shm
/dev/sda1   198337 41380146717  22% /boot
/dev/sda5462972776  47677060 391778020  11% /data
[r...@casablanca ~]#

NOTE: do not use LVM with F13 and ext4. It took me quite a while to find 
out, that the "errors" I had on ext4 like:

Jul 17 14:10:35 casablanca kernel: EXT4-fs error (device dm-0): 
ext4_mb_generate_buddy: EXT4-fs: group 80: 25516 blocks in bitmap, 25515 
in gd
... (hundreds like this)

where due to LVM (as opposed to ext4). Then I faced LVM out (needed a 
new installation), and no more problems with ext4.

Re: Installing jre plugin in Fedora 13

[fedora]

Did you check whether the IcedTea plugin is installed? The IcedTea 
plugin represents jre.

if not installed do:
yum install java-1.6.0-openjdk-plugin-1.6.0.0-41.b18.fc13.x86_64

(select the right architecture)

Re: Migrating data off a failing drive

[fedora]

Hi Suvayu
I have made bad experiences with LVM toghether with ext4 and fedora 13.
I got hundreds of

Jul 17 15:38:05 casablanca kernel: EXT4-fs error (device dm-0): 
ext4_free_inode: bit already cleared for inode 136800

in the respective logs.
When rebooting I also got hundreds of

Jul 17 15:38:22 casablanca kernel: EXT4-fs error (device dm-0): 
ext4_free_inode: bit already cleared for inode 136784
Jul 17 15:38:23 casablanca kernel: EXT4-fs error (device dm-0): 
ext4_mb_generate_buddy: EXT4-fs: group 46: 9159 blocks in bitmap, 7910 in gd

where dm-0 means the first logical volume.

Since I have wiped out LVM from the disks, no problems any more.

If you still want to keep LVMs, do not forget to create the virtual 
group(s):

   1. create a physical volume with pvcreate
   2. create the virtual groups in the physical volume using vgcreate
   3. create an LVM on the virtual groups with lvcreate
   4. make the file system into each logical volume


To copy the data, you may use rsync. In case you encounter disk errors 
the following programs may be helpful:

dd_rescue
myrescue
badblocks
testdisk
ext3grep
foremost
photorec

good luck

Compiz fails after upgrading the Kernel

[fedora]

Hi listers

I upgraded myhost to the following version of fedora 13 this morning.

[myu...@myhost ~]$ uname -a
Linux myhost.lan 2.6.34.6-54.fc13.x86_64 #1 SMP Sun Sep 5 17:16:27 UTC 
2010 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
[myu...@myhost ~]$

After the upgrade  compiz failed to work in the upgraded system. When I 
try to start compiz, it says:

[myu...@myhost ~]$ compiz --replace &
[1] 3012
[myu...@myhost ~]$ compiz (core) - Fatal: GLX_EXT_texture_from_pixmap is 
missing
compiz (core) - Error: Failed to manage screen: 0
compiz (core) - Fatal: No manageable screens found on display :0.0

[1]+  Exit 1  compiz --replace
[myu...@myhost ~]$


I thought that it was a failure in a library or in the xorg-server 
alltoghether and googled around with that in mind to find a solution. I, 
however, didn't find anything which helped. I also did not find any 
convincing error in the /var/log/Xorg.0.log, except that according to 
this log


[20.929] (WW) RADEON(0): Direct rendering disabled

When I did, however,
[myu...@myhost ~]$ glxinfo |grep -i direct
direct rendering: Yes
[myu...@myhost ~]$

I then gave the old kernel (2.6.33.6-147.2.4.fc13.x86_64) a try and - 
unexpectedly - compiz workes fine with the new libraries when using the 
old kernel.

This is how I start the two kernels:
title upper Disk Fedora (2.6.34.6-54.fc13.x86_64)
root (hd0,0)
kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.34.6-54.fc13.x86_64 ro

initrd /initramfs-2.6.33.6-147.2.4.fc13.x86_64.img

Note that I do not use the "nomodeset" flag.

The graphics driver is radeon:

[r...@myhost ~]# lsmod |grep radeon
radeon711725  2
ttm54819  1 radeon
drm_kms_helper 24738  1 radeon
drm   176953  4 radeon,ttm,drm_kms_helper
i2c_algo_bit5045  1 radeon
i2c_core   25709  5 
i2c_piix4,radeon,drm_kms_helper,drm,i2c_algo_bit
[r...@myhost ~]#

[r...@myhost ~]# cat /etc/X11/xorg.conf
Section "Device"
Identifier "Videocard0"
Driver "radeon"
Option "AccelMethod" "EXA"
Option "DRI" "1"
EndSection
Section "Extensions"
 Option "Composite" "Enable"
EndSection
[r...@myhost ~]#

Has somebody had a similar problem? How did you solve the problem with 
the new kernel?

Re: X won't start - segmentations fault

[fedora]

HAL (Hardware Abstraction Layer) is part of udev. You find its config 
files in /etc/udev/rules.d/
The corresponding HAL config file is /etc/udev/rules.d/90-hal.rules and 
here (Fedora 13) looks like

[myuser@myws /etc/udev/rules.d]$ cat 90-hal.rules
# pass all events to the HAL daemon
RUN+="socket:@/org/freedesktop/hal/udev_event"
[myuser@myws /etc/udev/rules.d]$

Re: ssha passwords

[fedora]

At this site, we are using LDAP authentication exclusively. In the LDAP 
DIT whe have all kinds of hased passwords including crypt, ssh, ssha. In 
front of the password hash of the userPassword attribute we indicate the 
type of hash used:

{crypt}/ey2ykUvpobl
{SHA}QwdAWqb3+JCy34khUkrR81af/B
{SSHA}yVvZPg6Pz9WOjEUoLIv2XRpJAQRhzu

We can auttenticate a user via pam, and the mail-message store 
authenticates mail users using the same userPassword attribute.

The primary hash is indicated in the LDAP config:
  olcPasswordHash: {SSHA}
Thus, when we use the LDAP tools (ldapadd, ldapmodify) to add/change 
passwords, the hash type is indicated automatically in the userPassword 
attribute as explained above.

Re: ssha passwords

[fedora]

If i remember correctly, modifying passwords in the LDAP DIT via the 
normal password utility should be possible at least since the 
introduction of  sssd.
As we do not go this way, i can't tell you how to configure it.

Re: Dual boot on Win7

[fedora]

i usually take the following steps in such situations:
1. start windows
2. defragment windows partition using the disk utility
3. shut down windows
4. boot from the linux install disk
5. continue until linux install asks you whether to shrink  the windows 
partition
6. say yes

Re: Fedora 14: GDM, sssd and LDAP authentication

Hi

The following sssd.conf and pam.d/gdm and pam.d/gdm-password work here

With quite a bit of debuggind i found out that for sssd you have to

Re: kickstart partitioning error

[fedora]

You do not re-create the physical volume using "--onpart=sda3 --noformat"
Could it possibly be that on  partition sda3 there exists  a physical 
volume from a previous installation, which is of different name, and 
which is not removed by this installation?

Re: program crashes on SIGSEGV, how debug it?

[fedora]

Hi Franta
try to run it under strace

strace /path/to/your_failing_program

of, in case it is a server:

strace -p PID-of-your-failing-program

strace logs all system calls in the error log.

Re: program crashes on SIGSEGV, how debug it?

[fedora]

After writing something beginning with
write(3, "CONF: reserving 8256Kb at 0x1000"..., 71) = 71

and then reading /etc/localtime

your program requested more memory:

munmap(0xb641, 4096)

and crashed. doesn't this give you a clue?

Multihoming confusion

[fedora]

Hi every

I am changing the ISP from aaa.bbb.243.160/27 to ccc.ddd.206.128/27.
In order to provide seamless service to our customers I made the hosts
concerned multihomed, i.e. I added them a logical interface on the new
subnet. I did not introduce a additional NIC into the hosts.
Then, I changed the default route on the hosts to the new network.

e.g in one host concerned you will see

myhost:~ # ifconfig
eth0  Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr 00:80:AD:B8:39:C3

NOTE: this multihoming  has nothing to do with additional security or
performance.

I did not install something with iproute2 or other routing enhancements.

PROBLEM: the multihoming works only partially.

if I invoke e.g. ping on http://iptools.com/ the ping reply does not come
back to its origin. The echo request reaches my server, my server sends an
echo reply, which never reaches the originator.

Re: Multihoming confusion

Hi HW

thank you very much, that helps.
I was before on a page describing this advanced routing, however, the main
title there was "Load Sharing and Performance increase", which is not,
what I sought. So I let it off.

Do you need exactly NetworkManager? If you only have static connections

not sure, as i am not using f20.

to allow root, remove 'root' from "DenyUsers" and/or change

restart sshd with

Hi all,

Seeing significant issues with IPv6. After some time, IPv6 completely

Re-connecting to wifi seems to restore IPv6 connectivity.

However, various things (ssh, firefox) stop working completely. Open ssh
sessions "freeze". Web page requests time out.

At the same time, I can access IPv6 resources from other machines which
do not run NetworkManager.

Next time this occurs, I hope to have some time to diagnose this problem
further. In the meantime, is anyone else seeing such breaking wrt IPv6?

Something to note, I run numerous servers with IPv6, both physical and
virtual. These servers run CentOS; None run NetworkManager, and all have
working IPv6 connectivity.

Re: All-in-one laser printer recommendation

Hi Patrick
I lately bought a Samsung CLX 3305. This is a color laser printer, 
scanner, copier. I donloaded the corresponding driver from Samsung, and 
all is working like a charm, including scanning via xsane.
My CLX 3305, however, is not on the LAN but on USB at a workstation. And 
it is not a fast machine, that not. But from the functionality point of 
view: with the Samsung Driver: no problem.

opinions.

Anyone have one of these beasties, or have an alternative to recommend?

Re: user and groups permissions

[fedora]

if your main concern is FTP access to the web, then i would recommend an 
FTP server, which allows virtual user-ids, such as pure-ftpd. Then,
you could open a new virtual user-id for each project, each web, and 
communicate it to all participants of the project or web.

we are 2-3 developers and we have a server on which we installed Fedora

I have not had sound working since the original kernel for F20 (3.11.x).

What motherboard do you have? Maybe it is specific board that has a
problem.

Look at the thread for:

Sound not working on 3.12.x and 3.13.x kernels for Fedora 20

to see what others have said. The 3.14.x kernel has no sound either.

I have other motherboards that do not have a problem with sound.

I already filed a bugzilla issue with this [1] but I'd like to know if
anybody else has troubles with VMs' network after suspend. And if others
are able to do a "systemctl restart network" successfully.

I mean, am I an isolated case because of some unknown configuration I
have or is this common?

What I do is:
launch VM
suspend laptop
wake up laptop after awhile (1 hour maybe)
network of VM loses default route
systemctl restart network # fails on both fedora 20 - guest and host

I'll appreciate if somebody else with same experience comments in the
bugzilla issue directly.


[1] https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1100034


What kind of virtualization technology are you using? What kind of
networking setup do you have (bridged, NAT-ed, host-only). Does your
laptop connect with network using wireless or Ethernet card? Why aren't
you using Network Manager for managing your network? What do you mean by
"systemctl restart network fails" (could you post here some log messages?)


Mateusz Marzantowicz



I do Virtualization using VirtualBox.
The VMs are from WindowsXP, Windows7, Fedora Linux, Solaris, FreeBSD, 
OpenBSD, you name it.
But I never hibernate nor suspend the Host system, while a VM is 
running, I always do a Save-the-machine-State on all VMs before I 
hibernate or suspend the Host.
And when I wake up the Host, usually the VMs come up when waked up 
whithout problems.

I use a Windows machine for one reason only: because I have certain
applications for which I have yet to find a good Linux counterpart or
counterparts.

For that matter, I have yet to find any kind of file-sharing server that
can compete with Samba. Which is one reason why I install samba even to
share files with other Linux machines.

If I'm missing something, maybe someone can let me know.

The "wlp3s0" is a wireless interface.

As a result, Samba suddenly won't work for me anymore.

Do you have a restriction on the interface(s) to use in the samba
config? (An "interfaces =" line.)


It was commented out. I took out the semicolon. It now includes "lo" and
"192.169.1.0/24" plus the two named connections, one wired and one
wireless, I have available. They are named "p37p1" and "wlp3s0." Of
these only "wlp3s0" is listed because I disconnected the wired interface.

I just took that semicolon out a minute ago. How long do I have to wait
for it to start listening in on "lo" and the others?

If the interfaces are up and running, they are working immediately.
This is not DNS, where you have to wait for the end of the 
DNS-propagation-delay.

Re: numlockx blocks lightdm

[fedora]

Hi François

try using
xfconf-query --channel keyboards -l -v
which should give you
...
/Default/Numlock  false
...

To set it:
xfconf-query --channel keyboards --property /Default/Numlock  -s true

Change true and false according to your requirements.

Hi Robert I'm not sure, but I suppose that at the alpha stage
the selection of personal desktops is not guaranted.


Alpha stage?  I am speaking about F22, not F23...





Hi Robert
I never had problems using this type of installation (F21 and F22):

using an KS installation for a minimal server install to avoid the 
troubles with the disk partitionning.


That installs about 800 and odds packages.

after that:
dnf groupinstall Xfce

which installs some more than 1000 Packages.

Then you have an System with Xfce Desktop with no Gnome add-ons or such.

Something is definitely "helpfully" screwing around with

Since I use kdm as a login manager, I found I could
add a command to /etc/kde/kdm/Xsetup to get it to run
as soon as the login screen starts:

xset led off

How to get it to actually turn numlock on, I don't
know (I prefer it off). Maybe something that uses
the XTEST extension could be used to simulate
pressing the numlock key.

I give the command "firewall-config" and authenticate.
Clicking on zone "internal" I see that kde-connect is ticked.
And when I go to Ports I see that ports 1714-1764 are listed, TCP and UDP.
And all this remains set if I reboot.

But I am not able to establish a connection under kdeconnect.
Neither device sees the other.
Also "sudo nmap -sT -O localhost" on the laptop does not show
these ports to be open.

If I run "sudo systemctl stop firewalld"
then I am able to establish the connection.

It seems that these firewalld commands
to not open the specified ports, as I would expect.

Could some firewalld expert please elucidate.

Incidentall, I tried the alternative firewall service some time ago,
and that seemed to open the ports OK.

This is probably a dumb question, but did you make sure there weren't any
gnome-related dot files left, such as .gnome3 or something similar?  Also,
check under .config if you haven't.  I don't really think this is the issue,
but it can't hurt to be sure.


Yes, I did.  Also under ~/.local.
I finished with find's of "-iname '*gnome*'" and "-iname '*gconf*'".

One further test, created a new user and it could not login into
gnome either.

Re: Is hibernation broken?

[fedora]

Hi listers
I also noticed that hibernation in Fedora 24 does not work much more 
than in previous versions of fedora.
I use hibernation because I want to be able to boot from the other disk 
on the PC next time I power it on, and this is not possible when using 
suspend. I  have been using the resume=UUID=abcdefgh kernel parameter 
since fedora 12.
Here, hibernation usually fails when going down, that is, the PC goes 
down but does not power off. So, I have to fully reboot (with file 
system check included) and try hibernation again. This usually happens 
when you are in a hurry...


I am very unhappy with the present situation.

Re: Does mDNS play well in regular DNS env?

[fedora]

Hi
mDNS manages only the .local domain (or its replacement if you configure 
mDNS differently), nothing else. mDNS is called via a special IP address 
in 224.0.0.xxx and therefore cannot face out the original DNS.

I have a proper DNS server but if I just try to ping an FQDN it tries
mDNS UDP 5353 which fails.

OTOH I just installed my printer and I'm guessing mDNS helped with
that so maybe mDNS is something I need?

I have no experience with mDNS but I am assuming that I will need to
just disable it to get DNS to work correctly.

My understanding is mDNS is meant to be used when there is no local name
server. If you have a DNS server it would probably be best to disable
mDNS so you're not adding unneeded complexity. I dont know specifically
how it's meant to fail over to DNS if mDNS fails to resolve a name. I
imagine the host you're trying to reach would just ignore the mDNS
packet, causing a failure, then your computer should reach out to the
DNS server that is configured on the device. It is supposed to be able
to coexist with traditional DNS but that defeats the purpose of mDNS to
be honest.

The swap is on, resume flag has been set in /etc/default/grub, and
secure boot if off. That's my understanding of the common bug entry.

When I hibernate my system it simply locks the system. No
hibernation is done. I gave Kubuntu a try to see if there is a
problem with hibernation and it works fine on Kubuntu.

If you guys have any ideas I would really appreciate it.

I'm using f16, kernel-3.4.9-2.fc16.i686.PAE

All was well until I starting a yum update (2 days ago), which advised
that I do a complete-transactions, and some checking for dupes, and a
couple of other things which I don't recall (sorry I'm not good at
recalling some details). I think that was what led me to inadvertently
deleted the NetworkManager stuff.

Underr f16 my PC doesn't now communicate with the router. They are
physically connected with an ethernet cable.
(I can access the IN using a live CD {I did so with Xubuntu 10.04.2 live CD}.)

In a terminal as root I get:-
[root@OfficeDT boot]# man NetworkManager
No manual entry for NetworkManager
[root@OfficeDT boot]# NetworkManager
bash: NetworkManager: command not found...

yum list installed, included:-

ModemManager.i686   0.5.3.96-1.fc16  @updates
NetworkManager-glib.i6861:0.9.4-6.git20120521.fc16   @updates
NetworkManager-gtk.i686 1:0.9.4-6.git20120521.fc16   @updates
ORBit2.i686 2.14.19-2.fc15
@anaconda-InstallationRepo-201105131946.i686/15

with no other NetworkManager packages

Attempts to ping the router give:-
[root@OfficeDT Desktop]# ping 192.168.1.1
connect: Network is unreachable

This pings successfully from a lap top.

I was thinking of getting the appropriate NetworkManager rpm file and
simply install it. I had a look around online but not quite getting
it. Maybe I'm being too simplistic!

Any help?

TIA,
Joe

I'm running Xfce on Fedora 17. Every so often (daily?) I loose the

process is running before loss but not after. The only processes that
I've been able to identify are kworkers.

Are there any suggestions as to what the cause might be?

The only processes that I can identify from ps before and after are
kworkers, most often (but not exclusively) is [kworker/0:2] Is there
any way to identify what the kworkers are assigned to? (The problem has
continued over several kernels)

Logout-login cures the problem.

Thanks.






Hello!

 In the GDM/KDM menu there's an option to restart X.  Also you
can restart X with
*Ctrl+Alt+Backspace*.  Try choosing it  (or typing it) and after this
log in your user as usual.  Tell us if it works.

Have you VirtualBox(es) or somthing equivalent running?

If so:
I lost the keyboard with VirtualBox sometimes, and the following action 
cured it:

- Go into your VirtualBox Application.
- Right-Hand Down from the USB selector select the keyboard.
- The keyboard will then be irresponsive from your Main System, it will, 
however, be responsive in your VirtualBox application.

- Again Right-Hand Down from the USB selector deselect the keyboard
- Now the keybord should be responsive from both the Main System and 
from the VirtualBox application.
