Fedora services integration on Gnome shell?
by Zoltan Hoppar
Hi
As we are advancing toward to Fedora Hubs, and more great services are
appearing in Fedora infra, I really wonder why don't we have more
accessible services in Gnome Online Accounts, and how can I add more Fedora
infra access points, and fetch data to my gnome shell, and/or use services.
When I think to my FAS registration, and subscriptions - would be awesome
to manage my fedora feed subscriptions from my gnome control center,
through gnome online accounts.
Same would be awesome to Fedora hosted git projects (pagure), fetching
dates, meetings, and events to be populated on my Gnome shell desktop -
similarly as adding a google account in online accounts - gives to me
access to calendar, photos, documents, files. If I would be able to use an
SSO service for Fedora infra services, and get messages, and data to
desktop - that would be more effective to turn people to developers, as we
message it always to our users.
I know that many coders are doesn't care about desktop integration, but
having this option IMHO would be beneficial to everyone in the community. I
also noticed, that many people doesn't want deeply integrated services
(because everything is in browser)... But what are you think? How do you
see this? Every user can be potential developer, but do we only target the
web with HUBs?
Thanks,
Zoltan

How to get rid of firewalld
by Stephen Davies
For as long as I can remember (20 years plus) , I have used a customised
iptables (or predecessors) to manage my firewall.
In recent Fedora releases, firewalld has become a default component.
I wish to totally remove firewalld from my F24 and to retain my original
iptables setup.
I have tried using systemd disable firewalld but every time I reboot,
firewalld still re-emerges and I have to stop it and reload my iptables
configuration.
How can I get rid of this beast??
Cheers and thanks,
Stephen

Can't start sm-client with systemctl
by Stephen Davies
If I try to start sm-client with systemctl, I get:
Dec 12 13:32:04 mustang.sdc.com.au sm-msp-queue2[5951]: starting daemon
(8.15.1): queueing@01:00:00
Dec 12 13:32:04 mustang.sdc.com.au sm-msp-queue2[5951]: unable to write pid to
/var/spool/clientmqueue/sm-client.pid: Permission denied
Dec 12 13:33:34 mustang.sdc.com.au systemd[1]: sm-client.service: Start
operation timed out. Terminating.
Dec 12 13:33:34 mustang.sdc.com.au systemd[1]: Failed to start Sendmail Mail
Transport Client.
Dec 12 13:33:34 mustang.sdc.com.au systemd[1]: sm-client.service: Unit entered
failed state.
Dec 12 13:33:34 mustang.sdc.com.au systemd[1]: sm-client.service: Failed with
result 'timeout'.
However, if I use:
/usr/sbin/sendmail -L sm-msp-queue2 -Ac -q1h
the queue manager starts and runs as expected.
I am 99.99% sure that all my directory permissions are correct and give smmsp
write access to the relevant directories. Certainly /var/spool/clientmqueue.
My sm-client.service is:
[Unit]
Description=Sendmail Mail Transport Client
After=syslog.target network.target sendmail.service
Conflicts=postfix.service exim.service
BindTo=sendmail.service
[Service]
Type=forking

GDM and Wayland on iMac
by Hugh Caley
I'm running Fedora 25 on an iMac.
01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. [AMD/ATI] Whistler [Radeon HD 6730M/6770M/7690M XT]
After a recent update, GDM will no longer come up. On bootup, I get a list of activities, which ends at Gnome Display Manager, and then the screen just sits there blinking every couple of seconds, but the GUI never starts.
There's no log in /var/log/gdm, and no interesting errors in Xorg.0.log.
I can boot into multi-user.target, and then just run startx and my GUI runs fine.
Finally, I just edited /etc/gdm/custom.conf and set WaylandEnable=false, and now the machine boots into graphical.target fine.
Anything else I can do?
Hugh

Terminal scroll bar -
by Bob Goodwin
I have two essentially identically
configured Fedora-25 workstation [fresh]
installations. One has a scroll bar on
the right side of the xfce4-terminal
display, the other does not. This one
that does not have the scroll bar began
as F-25 alpha/beta and was upgraded from
there.
I just tried a Dell Latitude upgraded
directly from F-23 to F-25, it HAS the
terminal scroll bar.
I have gone through the various menu
items but have not been able to see
anything different there. I find this
inconvenient.
Any suggestion on fixing this will be
appreciated.
