Fedora 23 UEFI installation problem
by debit2005@gmail.com
Dear friends,
Today I did UEFI-native installation of Fedora 23 in my Lenovo E530 laptop.
After the successful installation when I booted the system, nothing was
coming after the Grub screen and the system was hung.
It was showing the below error on the screen before the grub screen came
System BootOrder not found. Initializing defaults. Creating boot enty
"Boot003B" with label "Fedora" for file "\EFI\fedora\shim.efi"
More surprisingly the system was not booting even with the usb live fedora
23 media in UEFI mode. But when I changed the mode from UEFI to Leagcy
mode, the live media was booting.
During the installation, there was no problemat all.
Please suggest me something if you have faced the similar kind of problem.
Am I doing anything wong?

rpmbuild error on F23
by Ranjan Maitra
Hi,
I have been having an error on F23 with rpmbuild while building my personal rpms.
Here is the error I have been having. (aNu is a terminal emulator program that I have modified from an existing source file, ie evilvte.)
Processing files: aNu-debuginfo-0.1-1.fc23.x86_64
error: Empty %files file /home/maitra/rpmbuild/BUILD/aNu-0.1/debugfiles.list
RPM build errors:
Empty %files file /home/maitra/rpmbuild/BUILD/aNu-0.1/debugfiles.list
I guess the question is: what has changed from F22 to F23 which causes these errors. Here is the spec file:
Here is the files section:
%files
%defattr(-,root,root,-)
%config(noreplace) /usr/share/icons
/usr/share/applications
/usr/share/man/
/usr/share/pixmaps
/usr/bin/showvte
/usr/bin/aNu
%doc GPL INSTALL AUTHORS CHANGES
And I have placed the entire spec file at:
$ fpaste aNu.spec
Uploading (2.1KiB)...
WARNING: Could not shorten URL
http://paste.fedoraproject.org/286698/44661012
Any suggestions on what I should do.
Many thanks and best wishes,
Ranjan

Re: Upgrading from fedora 22 to fedora 23
by Justin W. Flory
Hi Joe,
The fedup command is no longer a functional way to upgrade from Fedora
22 to Fedora 23. Did you use the DNF system-upgrade plugin that was
detailed in the article? If so, what commands did you run for your upgrade?
Cheers,

Re: Upgrading from fedora 22 to fedora 23
by Justin W. Flory
Hi Joe,
I am also including my reply on the users mailing list, as there's a few
others here who may be able to help you as well. :)
Could you provide more information about the steps you took when
upgrading your system, such as what commands and with what flags you
ran? It'll help us be able to figure out what happened if we know all of
the steps you took.
Additionally, if you type `uname -a` in a command line, what is the output?
Thanks!
Cheers,

Buffering problems with rhythmbox in fed 23
by AV
I sometimes listen to online radio using rhythmbox.
In all previous fedora/gnome editions here were hardly any
problems. Occasionally there was a hiccup due to buffering
but only after hours and play would resume after a few seconds.
Now, fedora 23, gnome 3.18 and rhythmbox 3.2.1, it has become
impossible to listen to any online radio. After about 2-4 minutes
rhythmbox shows 'continuous' buffering activity and play almost
never resumes. If it does resume it breaks off again almost
immediately.
As this could be caused by almost anything I don't know where
to look for a solution. Anybody any ideas?
I have not searched bugzilla yet.

Saving current session does not work
by JD
I used gnome-save-session, logged out and logged back in.
My previous session (5 apps, each with multiple windows in
several different workspaces) we not restored.
So, since I am a mate DT user, I tried mate-session-save
and logged out and back in. Still, my session was not restored.
These are all the mate packages I have installed.

password-less ssh in F23
by Ranjan Maitra
A second machine is now failing to ssh in without a password only after a dnf system-upgrade --releasever=23. The machines being ssh-ed into are both on Fedora 22 (fully updated). But the machines that are ssh-ing in are on Fedora 23 (updated via dnf).
Is anyone else having this issue?
I posted the output of ssh -vvv earlier this morning but please let me know if additional information is needed to help me troubleshoot the problem.
Many thanks again!
Ranjan

dnf has -y as default now in f32?
by Tom Horsley
I just installed a virtual machine from the 64 bit f23 workstation
iso file. I'm running the first "dnf update" after the install,
and it just went ahead and started doing the updates.
Didn't it used to only do that if I said -y on the command line?
(I was planning on answering yes anyway, but this seemed
kind of surprising to me).

[Fwd: Fedora 23 is here!]
by Mike Chambers
In case anyone was hiding under a rock, or just happened to miss the
announcement.
Mike
-------- Forwarded Message --------

Subject: Fedora 23 is here!

Fedora 23 released
==================
It's (approximately) Halloween, so you know what that means — new
Fedora! The Fedora 23 release is here, and it's better than ever
before. We're pleased to bring you the latest incarnations of the three
main Fedora editions — Fedora Workstation, Fedora Cloud, and Fedora
Server, each built with love by the Fedora community to custom-fit your
needs in different areas. Fedora 23 is also available in alternate
desktop Spins, curated software Labs, and special images for the ARM
processor architecture.
If that's all you need to hear, download from https://getfedora.org/,
or if you already use Fedora, follow the simple upgrade steps at
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Upgrading.
Otherwise, read on for details.
Fedora Workstation
------------------
If you're a software developer, laptop or home user, hobbyist,
enthusiast, or student, Fedora Workstation is perfect for you. Fedora
Workstation includes the newest release of the GNOME desktop, which
makes your everyday computing simple, polished, and pleasant.
Experience the sleek interface and powerful tools for yourself —
download Fedora Workstation now.
* https://getfedora.org/workstation
Fedora Server
------------
Fedora Server makes service management simple with RoleKit, a
programmatic interface for quick deployment, and Cockpit, a remote web
GUI. Now in Fedora Server 23, you can manage Kubernetes clusters from
the Cockpit Admin Console, or launch a FreeIPA domain controller from a
kickstart file. Get Fedora Server this morning and have an identity
management solution in place by lunchtime.
* https://getfedora.org/server
Fedora Cloud
------------
Build scale-out computing with Fedora Cloud. The Fedora Cloud Base
image provides a minimal OS platform which can be downloaded for use in
OpenStack, or launched directly into EC2. Fedora Atomic Host takes
things in a more radical direction, providing a specialized system for
running Docker containers and Atomic Apps. Now with Fedora 23, Fedora
Atomic Host will be updated on a two-week cycle to keep at the edge of
emerging technology. Download or launch a Fedora Cloud image for your
chosen cloud provider, or as a Vagrant box for local development.
* https://getfedora.org/cloud/
Spins, Labs, and ARM
--------------------
Fedora Spins are alternative desktops for Fedora that provide a
different experience than the standard Fedora Workstation edition. For
instance, the Fedora KDE and Fedora Xfce spins provide popular
alternatives to GNOME for Fedora users who enjoy the KDE or Xfce
experience. Fedora 23 also introduces a Cinnamon spin, which provides a
"traditional" desktop layout with the modern GNOME 3 shell.
* https://spins.fedoraproject.org
Fedora Labs are curated collections of software maintained by members
of the Fedora Community where you can find updated live media focused
on Games, Design, Robotics, and more. These may be installed on their
own or as add-ons to existing Fedora installations.
* https://labs.fedoraproject.org
We also provide a version of the Fedora operating system tailored for
running in on ARM-based systems, previously mixed into the Spins page
but now with a dedicated download page.
* https://arm.fedoraproject.org
Updated Components
------------------
As with every Fedora release, almost every component has a new version,
with improvements across the board. Of particular note, Fedora
Workstation includes the GNOME 3.18 desktop environment and the Libre
Office 5.0 office suite.
Fedora 23 also has important under-the-hood security improvements, with
increased hardening for all compiled software and with insecure SSL3
and RC4 protocols disabled. We've also updated all of the software
installed by default in Fedora Cloud Base Image and Fedora Workstation
to use Python version 3, and the Mono .NET compatible framework is now
at version 4.
Perhaps most importantly, Unicode 8.0 support now enables the crucial
U1F32D character.
Downloads, upgrades, documentation, and common bugs
---------------------------------------------------
You can start by downloading Fedora 23:
* https://getfedora.org/
If you are upgrading from a previous release of Fedora, refer to:
* http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Upgrading
Read the full release notes for Fedora 23:
* https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/Fedora/23/html/Release_Notes/
Fedora 23 common bugs are documented at:
* http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Common_F23_bugs
This page includes information on several known bugs in Fedora 23.
Please be sure to read it before installing!
Contributing
------------
We hope you're as excited as we are about Fedora 23 and look forward to
exploring it yourself. Don't forget — Fedora never stands still as
we're always working towards a new and better release by sharing our
work with the world. Want to be part of the fun? It's easy to get
involved. There are many ways to contribute to Fedora, even if it's
just bug reporting. You can also help translate software and content,
test and give feedback on software updates, write and edit
documentation, design and do artwork, help with all sorts of
promotional activities, and package free software for use by millions
of Fedora users worldwide.
