Shortcuts using Super key not working and I am sad
by Ranbir
Hi All,
My Super (i.e. Windows) key no longer works for any of the Super key
based shortcuts. I don't know why. The shortcut hasn't been changed
(it's the same).
Has anyone else run into this? Which area of the keyboard do I pound
with a hammer to resovle this?
I'm running an updated Fedora 36.

strange ip address reported by nftables
by François Patte
Bonjour,
This morning, logwatch reported this in the iptables section:
Logged 99 packets on interface enp3s0
.........
From 10.91.96.218 - 6 packets to udp(54366)
How, this IP address could be logged on my private network (which is
192.168.1.0)?
I miss something....
Thank you for clarification.

unremovable gnome packages
by Adrian Sevcenco
Hi! I was trying to remove the gnome packages and because of gnome-shell
i'm stuck with this list:
gnome-autoar-0.4.3-1.fc36.x86_64
gnome-bluetooth-42.2-1.fc36.x86_64
gnome-bluetooth-libs-42.2-1.fc36.x86_64
gnome-control-center-42.3-1.fc36.x86_64
gnome-control-center-filesystem-42.3-1.fc36.noarch
gnome-desktop3-42.3-1.fc36.x86_64
gnome-desktop4-42.3-1.fc36.x86_64
gnome-keyring-42.1-1.fc36.x86_64
gnome-keyring-pam-42.1-1.fc36.x86_64
gnome-online-accounts-3.44.0-1.fc36.x86_64
gnome-session-42.0-1.fc36.x86_64
gnome-session-wayland-session-42.0-1.fc36.x86_64
gnome-settings-daemon-42.2-1.fc36.x86_64
gnome-shell-42.3.1-1.fc36.x86_64
So, why is gnome-shell not-removable??? is it not a desktop application??
Is there a way to solve this __nicely__ ?
Thanks a lot!

opinions: backups
by Bill Cunningham
I just thought I would ask for opinions on backups that people use.
I have thought about the old fashioned dump/restore; IDK if that would
be good for modern use or not. My system isn't really that big. My
allotted size is 30 Gig, and it's not full. There's dar and xar and
fsarchiver. There's backing up with btrfs too.
I am thinking about back ups of the whole system and rpms I have
installed. And maybe not backing up logs, old settings like are stored
in the root directory of the user(s) and root account.
Does anyone use any of these or other backups? I just want to save
my rpms and not have to download all from scratch. IDK if dar or dump
would backup things like /sys or other system directories. I have
created dump backups but not really restored from scratch.

This command is an Intel NUC on the local network, and /srv/backups is a Btrfs formatted volume.
$ sudo btrfs send -p home.20220810 home.20220815 | ssh chris(a)fnuc.local "sudo btrfs receive /srv/backups/fovo/"
Although when I'm traveling it looks a bit differently because I'll use a locally attached USB stick:
$ sudo btrfs send -p home.20220810 home.20220815 | sudo btrfs receive /run/chris/backups/fovo/
Because the "root" subvolume contains everything, including logs and VM images if you use virt-manager, databases, it can actually go through quite a bit of churn. Probably more than the typical "home".
