Re: Backing up system
by gmspro
Hi,
http://www.sysresccd.org/Download
With the SystemRescueCd I backed up the /dev/sda6 partition in /mnt/backup/ naming "diskimage"
After backing up operation the file has the automatic extension like "diskimage.000".
Is this file ok to restore?
If I name it "diskimage.gz" then it is automatically renamed with this extension "diskimage.gz.000"
But here below
http://www.sysresccd.org/Screenshots
the file is name like this:
"diskimage.pimg"
Do I have to name with the .pimg extension during backup to restore correctly?
And how can I restore it?

by Ranjan Maitra
Hi,
I upgraded to F31 late last week and I am missing the MiscFixed 16 font that I prefer using. Where would I find it?
Many thanks,

how to install zoom client.
by home user
Good morning,
(f-29)
(background)
Last week, I was to participate in a "Zoom" meeting for a charity that
I'm involved in. I have the needed software on my rarely-used windows-7
box. But I could not complete the windows-7 login (some problem with a
windows-7 service). I've since found there is a "Zoom" client for
Fedora. "dnfdragora" does not find anything for it. But I found a web
page that I hope has what I need. I've downloaded the package
("zoom_x86_64.rpm"), and I've downloaded a "Public Key"
("package-signing-key.pub"). The web site from which I've downloaded
these also has a line:
Key fingerprint: [some 40 hex digit number]
(4 questions)
1. Do the 2 files need to be in a specific place to do the install? If
yes, where?
2. Do I need to be "root" to do the install?
3. What do I do with the "Key fingerprint"?
4. How do I do the install (preferably using "dnf")?
thanks,
Bill.

What do you open .mobi files with??
by Beartooth
Something on sourceforge has been recommended to me, but I try to
stick to things that dnf can install. Surely there must be some Fedora-
native ebook reader!

F30 Lenovo x140e - no wifi
by Robert Moskowitz
I have been using ethernet up to now. I went to enable the wifi, to see
no wifi listed.
It has been too long since I have had to do this troubleshooting. Can
some point me to what I need to look at to find what the Fedora thinks
is the wifi?
thanks

Fc30 -> FC31 : Can't rename interfaces. FC30 worked.
by Sean Darcy
Just upgraded to FC31. It's a multihomed machine used as a router. One
interface "external" goes to the cable modem. The other interface
"internal" goes to a switch.
cat /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-external | grep -v \#
TYPE=Ethernet
BOOTPROTO=dhcp
DEVICE=external
ONBOOT=yes
DEFROUTE=yes
IPV4_FAILURE_FATAL=no
IPV6INIT=no

cat /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-internal | grep -v \#

BOOTPROTO=none
ONBOOT=yes
IPADDR=10.10.11.251

HWADDR=00:0e:c6:dc:01:aa
But neither interface is found on boot:

even though the MAC adresses match. As do the UUID's:

System internal ef5b0746-2604-b21f-c03e-00556aef68fc ethernet --
enp0s20u3 is a USB interface that should be internal. If I unplug and
replug, naming works.
On boot:
kernel: asix 2-3:1.0 eth0: register 'asix' at usb-0000:00:14.0-3, ASIX
AX88772 USB 2.0 Ethernet, 00:0e:c6:dc:01:aa
kernel: usbcore: registered new interface driver asix
kernel: asix 2-3:1.0 enp0s20u3: renamed from eth0
then I unplug and plug:
kernel: asix 2-3:1.0 internal: renamed from enp0s20u3
kernel: asix 2-3:1.0 internal: link up, 100Mbps, full-duplex, lpa 0x45E1
That does not happen if I plug and unplug external, an ethernet cable.
BUT, what's really odd. I'm booting the Fc31 kernel:
kernel-5.3.11-300.fc31.x86_64
if I boot the same kernel, but FC30:
kernel-5.3.11-200.fc30.x86_64
IT WORKS !!
Any help appreciated.

Updated info about disabling tracker related processes?
by Gianluca Cecchi
Hello,
I have recently begun to use again gnome session and I have reinstalled
nautilus.
I see that nautilus depends on tracker and so the reinstall put in tracker
and its things
And this morning in my F28 system with SSD disk (I don't imagine on a
normal sata based environment) I had to kill tracker-extract and
tacker-miner processes because they hogged my cpu for several minutes..
Searching with google I found different info about disabling (or at least
calm down) tracker, but they all seem not updated, in the sense that
several commands/services are not present in my f28 environment.
Any pointer about configuring and/or disabling it?
Thanks in advance,
Gianluca

Anyone using Anydesk or could test it ?
by sixpack13
Hallo
is anyone using Anydesk or could test it ?
https://anydesk.com/en/downloads/linux
since the F31-updates during the last week I'm unable to work with anydesk anymore.
I'm using Xorg not wayland.
Problem:
During the start of an connection a completely blank dialog box pops up.
Usually it's an dialog to allow the connection attempt on the remote box.
Connection between F31 => Windows works.
Connection between F31 <= Windows does not !
Connections between F31 <=> F31 do not !
It is sufficing to try a F31 connection to the *same* machine to see to empty dialog box.
Does anyone know to debug this ?
Against which component should I fill a bug report ?
P.S.
This comment may appear twice in this list, so please ignore.
The first one somehow seems to be got lost ?!
it was created and send from thunderbird to users(a)lists.fedoraproject.org

gnome frozen when ssfhs stall
by Patrick Dupre
Hello,
I already complained about the following issue, and I submitted the bug to bugzilla
without feedback.
If I have an open gnome session which turns to sleep because of a lack of
activity. Then, if a sshfs connection stalls, there is no way to relogin
through the gnome-session.
The only option that I have is to kill -9 -1 through a terminal tty
the gnome session, but I lost all the session.
Other options?
