udisks2 configuration
by François Patte 08 Jun '18

08 Jun '18

Bonjour, I want to be able to open a crypted device as a non-root user and I modified the file /usr/share/polkit-1/actions/org.freedesktop.UDisks2.policy in order to do that. That works, but it is not a good thing to modify a file from the distrib to create a local configuration. There is an empty directory /etc/udisks2/modules.conf.d where I tried to guess what I could put inside for my purpose, but everything failed. I did not find a clear doc about the udisks2 configuration. Does anyone knows how to proceed? Thank you. -- François Patte UFR de mathématiques et informatique Laboratoire CNRS MAP5, UMR 8145 Université Paris Descartes 45, rue des Saints Pères F-75270 Paris Cedex 06 Tél. +33 (0)6 7892 5822 http://www.math-info.univ-paris5.fr/~patte

Google Maps WebGL issue w/ Radeon card
by Ian Pilcher 07 Jun '18

07 Jun '18

Google Maps reliably crashes its tab in both Firefox and Google Chrome on my Radeon-based system (FirePro V4900). The only workaround seem to be to completely disable WebGL in one or both browsers. I don't see this on my Intel GPU-based laptop. Anyone else? -- ======================================================================== Ian Pilcher arequipeno(a)gmail.com -------- "I grew up before Mark Zuckerberg invented friendship" -------- ========================================================================

[OT] HP EX920
by Mike Wright 05 Jun '18

05 Jun '18

Hi all, newegg has a good price on the 512G HP EX920 M.2 ($180US) NVMe SSD drives this weekend. I can find no references to this part and Linux. Everything refers to Windows (and the problems they're having with it). This is supposed to be the latest, greatest, fastest, blabla, etc. Anybody familiar with this re: Linux? TIA, Mike Wright

4% battery; dpesn't suspend
by Dave Mitchell 03 Jun '18

03 Jun '18

F27. I ran a new laptop battery down to 4% (as claimed by gnome) and my laptop didn't auto-suspend, nor hibernate. In settings / power, the only option for battery power these days seems to be to automatically suspend after a set time period; not at a certain battery level. So a) did I imagine it that earlier fedoras used to have this feature? b) any way I can enable auto-suspect on low battery for F27? -- print+qq&$}$"$/$s$,$a$d$g$s$@$.$q$,$:$.$q$^$,$@$a$~$;$.$q$m&if+map{m,^\d{0\,},,${$::{$'}}=chr($"+=$&||1)}q&10m22,42}6:17a2~2.3@3;^2dg3q/s"&=~m*\d\*.*g

tip: star tech PEXUSB311AC2
by ToddAndMargo 01 Jun '18

01 Jun '18

Also, a bit off topic, but the Star Tech PEXUSB311AC2 StarTech.com Dual Port USB 3.1 Card – 1x USB-C – 1x USB-A – 10Gbps per port – Expansion Card – USB 3.1 PCI-E Card – USB 3 PCI Crashes your file system on large file transfers and crashes your boot if anything is plugged into it when you boot. Anyone know of a card that works right? How about Siig?

F28 Backlight does not turn off
by Robert Moskowitz 01 Jun '18

01 Jun '18

This is Fedora 28 with Xfce. I have set power manager to blank and lock the screen after 15 min. This is a change from the default 10min. Now the screen is black, but staying on. It is no longer turning off. What do I need to set so that the screen turns off? thanks

Pan still crashes

31 May '18

Followups set to gmane.linux.redhat.fedora.general Pan on F28, which I update at least once daily, still crashes instead of launching. From the command line with ampersand: $ /usr/include/c++/8/bits/stl_vector.h:1021: std::vector<_Tp, _Alloc>::const_reference std::vector<_Tp, _Alloc>::front() const [with _Tp = const pan::Article*; _Alloc = std::allocator<const pan::Article*>; std::vector<_Tp, _Alloc>::const_reference = const pan::Article* const&]: Assertion '__builtin_expect(!this->empty(), true)' failed. Alas! That is Geek to me. What should I do?? -- Beartooth Staffwright, Not Quite Clueless Power User Remember I know little (precious little!) of where up is.

md5 files - how to use them ?
by Angelo Moreschini 31 May '18

31 May '18

Hi I got the eclipse plugin "WB_v1.8.0_UpdateSite_for_Eclipse4.5.zip.md5" (plugin windowbuilder). The suffix md5 is for checking the integrity of the file... But I cannot use this file (I cannot to install it on eclipse..) Nautilus doesn't unzip it, and also not the command ;ine tar -xzf. If I rename the file (in .zip), nothing change.. and also I didn't find some program that can help me... Some advice will be welcome Tank you Angelo
