NFS mount lockups since about a month ago
by Terry Barnaby
Hi,
I use NFS mount (defaults so V4) /home directories with a simple server
over Gigabit Ethernet all running Fedora33. This has been working fine
for 25+ years through various Fedora versions. However in the last month
or so all of the client computers are getting KDE GUI lockups every few
hours that last for around 40 secs. /home is not accessible during this
time and it feels/looks to be an NFS lockup issue. There are no "NFS
server no responding" or such like messages in either the servers or
clients /var/log/messages and the network communications seems fine.
1. Have there been some changes to NFS recently in the kernel ?
2. Any idea where to begin to try and debug this ?

Cockpit login fails

Unfortunately I did not find anything regarding the
json_object_get_string_member: assertion 'node != NULL' failed
issue. /etc/pam.d/cockpit exists and there is also no customized pam
configuration.
Any ideas?
Best Regards

Where are the launchers?
by ToddAndMargo
Hi All,
Xfce 4.14
When I right click on the desktop and select
"Create Launcher", Xfce lists various launchers
already installed in the system. Where are these
launchers located? .config? .local?
Many thanks,

USB ports frequently disconnecting
by Patrick O'Callaghan
I have a whole slew of these messages in the journal:
00:00:11 Bree upowerd[2067]: treating change event as add on /sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:14.0/usb3/3-0:1.0
The specific usb hub changes from time to time, i.e. it's not always
the same device, (and doesn't seem to be related to my external powered
hub). A Google search turned up this:
https://forums.linuxmint.com/viewtopic.php?t=345031
Before I start messing around with my BIOS, has anyone seen something
similar?

How do I set foreground and background in mate terminal?
by ToddAndMargo
Hi All,
In xfce-terminal, in Edit--> preferences, I can set
my forgoudnand background colros anas well as font
size.
In mate-terminal, I have edit profiles, etc. Seems like
it would affect other things than just mate-terminal.
Also, is there a generic terminal I can install similar
to xfce-terminal?
Many thanks,
