I'm totally baffled by how to get firewalld to forward IPv6 packets.
On my home network, every machine has a public IPv6 address (from
radvd). My ISP has IPv6. In between is a Fedora machine running
firewalld, but packets simply do not transition from one network
interface to the other.

It turns out there are two problems.
(1) You must manually assign a public IPv6 address to at least one of
your router's interfaces. This is because when sending an IPv6
packet, the kernel chooses a source address by looking at the
addresses of all interfaces. If none of them has a public addres
Is it possible to play commercial blu-ray disks on Fedora? (I expect

If it is possible at all, are there external (USB) blu-ray drives
which are better than others?
