Unable to enumerate USB device

When I try to connect my ER9XPro USB device to my Fedora 21 server, it fails
to connect with:

It is a direct connection (no hub).
Any ideas?
Cheers and thanks,

Should disks in a raid really prevent booting?
by Tom Horsley
I was apparently missing something like the raid1 kernel
module in the initramfs in my fedora 21 partition, but
I disabled the mdmonitor service and removed the raid
filesystem from the /etc/fstab, yet the system still
could not boot. It spent several minutes trying to recognize
the raided disks then went into the dracut shell.
Should it really be utterly impossible to boot a system
that merely has raided disks connected to it which no
one is trying to reference? Should I make a kernel bug
for this?

NFS trees during install
by Mike Chambers
Hi all,
I currently locally mirror Fedora release trees, as well as updates
and testing trees, and are all nfs mounted. I would like to do the 2
below things.
1 - What to issue at boot to include updates and testing trees? I
already use nfs parameter for the release tree.
2 - What do I do to use a newer anaconda package from the testing tree
instead of the one in the main tree? I guess I want to include a new
image to use from the newer anaconda? I already use the boot.iso from
the release tree and guess I need to create a new/custom image?
Thanks ahead of time,

Handling and resolving 'dependency' which has been custom compiled
by Lorenzo Sutton
Hi all,
What is the best way in Fedora to handle the following situation?
- Package X depends on package Y
- Package Y is actually installed through custom compiling it (in $HOME/bin)
- Doing:
yum install X
will want to install Y
Specifically in my case X is kdenlive and Y is ffmpeg.
I compiled ffmpeg manually to have jack audio [1] support by following
the guide on the ffmpeg website [2]. This means ffmpeg is in
~/bin/ffmpeg (also in my PATH). Before doing this I removed (with yum)
ffmpeg. Now if I try to:
yum install kdenlive
it will want to install ffmpeg.
Any suggestions, ideas, pointers are welcome.
Thanks
Lorenzo.

the jack development files)

Problem installing Fedora 20 and 21 on notebook?
by Michael D. Setzer II
Have a student with a Toshiba Satellite L305 and tried to install Fedora 20
and 21 by using both DVD and Flash. In both cases it would come up with
the grub screen, but both the regular install and the basic video would result
in strange graphics and no response??
I use a fail-safe option with my disk imaging project, so tried adding its
options to the boot line.
noapic noacpi pnpbios=off acpi=off pci=noacpi
Installation went thru just fine, and machine is working fine.
In checking the grub.cfg file on the system, it only included these two options.
pci=noacpi acpi=off
Don't know how common this issue might be, but perhaps Fedora should add
a fail-safe option to the installations, so that if the regular ones don't work,
they could at least try this one.
Don't know why this caused the installation to fail, but it seems to be a simple
fix.
Not sure if the people that could change this are on the list, or where I could
report this?
Try to get students to check out Linux, and have an install fail for a reason
like this would probable stop a lot of users from continuing.
Thanks.

This is a good idea to RFE.

Keyboard sensitivity problem for particular user
by Juri Vrljicak
[Fedora 18]
For my regular user I have to strike hard the keyboard for it to work.
My root user works as always.
Looks like one of my kids just touched something but I haven't find a value
for that property in the keyboard configuration UI
(systemTools/systemSettings/hardware/keyboard) Any other idea?

Does KDE do offline software updates?
by Chris Murphy
OK I'm going to display some total KDE ignorance here, hopefully a KDE
user can answer this.
On GNOME, gnome-software + packagekit + systemd work together to make
the user aware of software updates. This includes any installed
applications, as well as OS + kernel updates. The user clicks on
Restart & Install in gnome-software, or chooses that option in the
reboot/poweroff panel. The system reboots, a special systemd offline
updates target is triggered, and packagekit installs all the
previously downloaded rpms with a progress indicator, then reboots
(again).
So I'm wondering what the equivalent is on KDE, with about that much detail.
Thanks,

checkboxes in f21 gnome apps
by Stuart McGraw
I just installed Fedora-21 and xfce. Install was from
the regular live x64 download, not the xfce spin.
I have an odd problem with checkboxes in gui dialogs:
they don't show any checkmarks. If I click on a
checkbox, a checkmark will appear for a fraction of
a second then disappear. From the program's behavior
I can tell that the setting got set but it is obviously
difficult if one can not see which boxes are checked
in a dialog and which aren't.
This problem seems to be limited to Gnome apps (the ones
with the new -- at least to someone coming from F15 --
and really unpleasant UI design). For example, brasero
exhibits the effect but k3b doesn't.
Does this problem ring a bell with anyone?
