Re: Kernel entries are not updated in grub menu

I'm glad to see I'm not the only one with this problem. I have not had this problem before since I use /etc/dnf/dnf.conf to block kernel updates to prevent spamming /boot with every minor update. Until yesterday my running kernel was 5.0.7-200.fc29.x86_64 I intended to upgrade from Fed29 to Fe

Bonjour, I am curious to know what is the utility of gnome-keyring: I stored a password for msmtp using secret-tool, and going to .local/share/keyrings/ I can read this password clearly stored in a file in this directory. So, there is absolutely no secret! Thank you for lights. PS. Why is
