2017-05-26 Thread cen
Hi I need OpenVPN 2.3 because the end router has an outdated OpenVPN version and OpenVPN 2.4 broke compatibility. 2 weeks ago I accidentally updated to 2.4 but I managed to do dnf downgrade. However, after I updated Fedora 25 today I can no longer downgrade, it says it is at lowest version.

Some years ago I had an IBM ThinkPad that one day failed to boot, and every subsystem diagnostic that ran at power-up (keyboard, memory, disk controller, ...) reported a problem. On a whim I put in a new clock battery and everything was fine. Now any time a machine suddenly goes flakey, the clock

smplayer will not play mkv files

2017-05-26 Thread JD
