F31RC1.9 install fails on Ryzen 7 3800X if file system encryption is enabled

2019-10-27 Thread Eric Smith
I have a new Ryzen 7 3800X system, and since Fedora 30 won't install on that, I tried Fedora 31 RC1.9 Workstation Live. That boots up fine, but when I try to install to my "disk" (M.2 NVMe), if file system encryption is enabled, it hangs at "Creating luks on /dev/nvme0n1p6". I let it sit there for

2019-08-09 Thread Eric Smith
I'm setting up a turnkey system that uses a Zebra brand USB barcode printer. I need to use it without CUPS, directly printing from an application.

ssh X forwarding fails when sshing into F25

2016-12-17 Thread Eric Smith
I have F24 on my laptop (vaio), and F25 on my desktop (p1). Back when both ran F24, I could from the laptop do "ssh -X p1" to get an ssh session with X forwarding. Now that I've upgraded the desktop to F25, when I try to do that, I get the ssh session, but with an error "X11 forwarding request

Since I've upgraded to F22 x86_64, I haven't been able to access serial ports from a user account in the dialout group. Doing an ls /dev/ttyUSB0 shows that the device special file is there, but the group is not set to dialout: $ ls -l /dev/ttyUSB0 crw-rw-r--. 1 root root 188, 0 Jul 25 03:29 /dev/t

How to create launchers on panel in Gnome 3 Classic Mode?

Is there some way to create launchers on the Gnome 3 Classic Mode panel, as was easily done in Gnome 2? I'm trying really hard to like Gnome 3 Classic Mode, but having a very difficult time of it, because it seems to only provide a superficial resemblance to the Gnome 2 desktop, without actually p
