MC Midnight Commander: error opening PDF files refers to Dolphin

Hey all, I have always used MC as my commandline filemanager and really like it. However, since Fedora 21, when opening a PDF file it always shows an error that it cannot open "/usr/bin/dolphin" which is understandable, because by default gnome uses a different file manager (Nautilus I think).

Need old live CDs

I'm trying to track down a problem with configuring KDE mouse actions. Since the issue only occurs when trying to set things up, I seem to have gone quite a few releases without noticing it. In fact, the problem seems to go back at least as far as Fedora 18, which is the oldest KDE live CD on dl.f

With newer updates to Fedora 20 the wakeup timer does not work...

I have Mythtv installed. I setup a wakeup timer that worked in Fedora 19 so the computer would boot up in time to record a show and then shutdown until the next recording was scheduled. But in Fedora 20, with the inclusion of halt into systemd, the wakeup timer does not work. In Fedora 19 the

dvd read speed

Hi, is there a way to force dvd to spin faster when backing it up? Currently I see only about 4 megabytes/s read speed. The drive is ata2.00: ATAPI: Optiarc DVD+/-RW AD-7930H, 100A, max UDMA/100 If there is no way, guess I will have to look for a faster drive. -- users mailing list users@lists.fe

Re: current laptop recommendations

I just got a Dell XPS 13, late 2013. It's the same thing as the Sputnik project's Ubuntu developer version. It was $900 on the microsoft store, so yeah it came with Windows 8.1 instead of Ubuntu but I was planning on running Fedora on it anyway and see about Windows in a VM rather than dual booting
