r8712u driver fails in F25
by David A. De Graaf
The r8712u driver from the staging area has stopped working in Fedora
25. This driver supports (among others) my emergency USB DLink DWA-130
adapter that I use when the laptop's built in wireless (Qualcomm
Atheros QCA9377 802.11ac) is "too advanced" to connect to some old
wireless router.
The r8712u driver works just fine in Fedora 24 and it seems to be
substantially unchanged.
I ran 'modinfo r8712u' on both F24 and F25 and diff'd them.
The only differences are in the filesystem locations and labelling.
There was no other substantial difference.
I've monitored dmesg while plugging the DLink adapter in and it's
apparent that
1 - it is detected with proper vendor and product IDs.
2 - the r8712u module is selected and registered.
3 - the correct firmware is loaded from rtlwifi/rtl8712u.bin
4 - an endless stream of messages ensues:
[ 262.524809] IPv6: ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP): wlan1: link is not ready
and, of course, the new interface never becomes available to
NetworkManager.
What's gone wrong?
Why does the same driver work in Fedora 24 but not in Fedora 25?
How do I regain operability?

MANPATH
by poma
Hello!
Somehow, along the way, MANPATH hit rather strange value, so that the manuals must be entered manually without the help of completion feature.
# dnf install python3-sphinx
...
Installed:
Lmod.x86_64 6.5.1-2.fc24 python-sphinx-locale.noarch 1.4.8-2.fc24
python3-sphinx.noarch 1.4.8-2.fc24
Complete!
$ echo $MANPATH
/usr/share/lmod/lmod/share/man::
$ alternatives --list | grep lmod
modules.sh auto /usr/share/lmod/lmod/init/profile
$ alternatives --display modules.sh
modules.sh - status is auto.
link currently points to /usr/share/lmod/lmod/init/profile
/usr/share/lmod/lmod/init/profile - priority 20
slave modules.csh: /usr/share/lmod/lmod/init/cshrc
Current `best' version is /usr/share/lmod/lmod/init/profile.
$ grep export.MANPATH /usr/share/lmod/lmod/init/profile
export MANPATH=:
export MANPATH=$(/usr/share/lmod/lmod/libexec/addto MANPATH /usr/share/lmod/lmod/share/man)
$ rpm -qf /usr/share/lmod/lmod/init/profile
Lmod-6.5.1-2.fc24.x86_64
Guys, what is the recommended solution for $MANPATH?
1. Additional installation of "The Environment Modules" package?
# dnf install environment-modules
...
Installed:
environment-modules.x86_64 3.2.10-17.fc24
Complete!
$ echo $MANPATH
$ alternatives --display modules.sh
modules.sh - status is auto.
link currently points to /usr/share/Modules/init/modules.sh
/usr/share/lmod/lmod/init/profile - priority 20
slave modules.csh: /usr/share/lmod/lmod/init/cshrc
/usr/share/Modules/init/modules.sh - priority 40
slave modules.csh: /usr/share/Modules/init/csh
Current `best' version is /usr/share/Modules/init/modules.sh.
$ rpm -qf /usr/share/Modules/init/modules.sh
environment-modules-3.2.10-17.fc24.x86_64
OR
2. Update to "unpushed" and remove "Environmental Modules System in Lua"?
# dnf update ./python*sphinx*.rpm ; dnf remove Lmod
...
Upgraded:
python-sphinx-locale.noarch 1.4.8-3.fc24 python3-sphinx.noarch 1.4.8-3.fc24
Complete!
...
Removed:
Lmod.x86_64 6.5.1-2.fc24
Complete!
$ echo $MANPATH
OR some other solution?

Yeah, the emphasis is on consistency of names of network interfaces.

gphoto2 problem -
by Bob Goodwin
.
About a week ago I began to have a
problem with gphoto2 which normally just
works.
I don't use it every day and I don't
know exactly when it began doing this
but there were updates from Fedora and
Apple. The only thing I found via Google
was mention of a lock problem and this
does not appear to be a lock problem.
The camera is detected:
photosnew]$ gphoto2 --auto-detect
Model Port
----------------------------------------------------------
Apple iPhone 5 (PTP mode) usb:003,006
[bobg@box10 photosnew]$ gphoto2
--get-all-files
However any command to download from the
camera yields the following error:
photosnew]$ gphoto2 --get-all-files
*** Error ***
PTP Invalid Storage ID
*** Error (-1: 'Unspecified error') ***
For debugging messages, please use the
--debug option.
Debugging messages may help finding a
solution to your problem.
If you intend to send any error or debug
messages to the gphoto
developer mailing list
<gphoto-devel(a)lists.sourceforge.net>,
please run
gphoto2 as follows:
env LANG=C gphoto2 --debug
--debug-logfile=my-logfile.txt
--get-all-files
Please make sure there is sufficient
quoting around the arguments.
I dunno what to do, any help appreciated,
Bob

Tor browsers
by JD
How much effort is involved in setting up tor port(s) and running tor
browsers?
I have never done it to-date, and would like some installation / setup /
configurations links.
