Modern laptop batteries are anything but dumb devices. Most of them got an SMBus interface, a bus derived from (and very similar to) I²C.

My guess is that either the firmware on this specific battery is bad, your host driver doesn't like the battery or you just had some dirty contacts and the host just couldn't talk to the battery.

@black3dynamite said in Mouse Issues on Windows 2019 on KVM Through Virt-Manager:

EvTouch USB Graphics Tablet is the default when selecting Server 2019 config template.

That's the one.

And the template didn't load properly when we selected it! It kept going back to Alpine!

So no idea what the exact fail combo is, but I am fully updated, and working, on a clean install.

Installed Fedora 31 Cinnamon from USB. Rebooted, I have only kernel 5.3.7-301 Removed dnf dragora GUI sudo dnf remove dnfdragora* -y Rebooted. Upgraded all but grub2 sudo dnf upgrade --refresh -y --exclude grub2* Rebooted, not I now have kernel 5.3.13-300 available and default. Upgraded grub2 sudo dnf upgrade --refresh -y, I did receive the above SELinux errors again, they may be normal? Rebooted, system working normally.

@black3dynamite said in Converting VMware VMs to KVM:

I haven't been keeping up with Windows Admin Center for awhile. Was that an option to manage Hyper-V?

It will be, but I'm not sure that it is yet. We've tried and not been able to get it working even internally anywhere, let alone externally. Once they figure out stability and authentication, I assume that it will be great for that. Being that this is 2016, it's going to suck hard. And if there is a Hyper-V issue, WAC would be down which is a problem in a small environment like this.

@scottalanmiller said in Installing Hugo Static Website Generator on Linux:

However, they don't have any standard Linux install documentation on their website and only show using Homebrew, a MacOS package that essentially no one on Linux uses. Very odd.

I just looked. I'm not sure what you're talking about. The page clearly shows snaps, dnf, apt, pacman, eopgk, and pkg_add for OpenBSD.

Completely different than what I got from the same link this morning. I went to that page, clicked on Linux, and they only showed Brewlinux, which isn't even the current name of the system.

Way back machine shows it's been there since at least the 13th.

Very weird. I wonder if it was a cache somewhere? I definitely poked around this morning and Linuxbrew was the only thing that it had and had it from every link that I tried on their site.

I am using fedora 22.

Fedora 31 is current. F22 is insanely ancient.

@wrx7m said in Fedora - Automating Config File Modifications:

Without using a CM tool, what is the easiest way to automate modifications to several config files across 7-8 servers? I was looking at sed, but am not sure if there is a better tool that isn't a CM.

More specifically, I have several Fedora servers running squid proxy. From time to time, I need to modify the config file to whitelist a particular domain. Because I will soon have a few more servers, I would like to automate these type of file updates so I don't have to manually go into each server's config and copy and paste stuff in to certain sections; some information is specific to a particular server, where as this section would be universally necessary on all servers. So, I would be inserting lines in specific sections.

I intend to move to some sort of CM for this stuff in the future, but I need to get these going sooner than I could learn the CM tool.

Sync with a s3 bucket hourly. Then you only need to update on s3

@Pete-S said in HFSPlus Read Write access on Fedora:

Why not Paragon drivers on Windows instead?

Virtualize and pass through to the VM.

Because I am operating this from fedora to sync the data to cloud.

Plus I need my work laptop portable.

@scottalanmiller said in Blank Screen After Fedora 30 Update to 5.3.5 Kernel on Dell Inspiron Laptop:

Issue returned for the last two weeks even on Fedora 31. Luckily the old F30 kernel was still there because of the lock and continued to work. But the 5.4 kernel came out today and it works again.

I've had no issues again

@dafyre said in PATH Error with TimeScaleDB-Tune on Fedora 30:

then why are you even using it?

Capacity Planning, for example.

@wrx7m said in Configure Nginx as Reverse Proxy for ScreenConnect to Enable Lets Encrypt:

Less to that than I thought there would be.

It's surprisingly simple and basic. It's really just passing one port to another, and using SSL. About the most basic setup you can have.

Variation for Debian 10 + Dovecot 2.3.4.1:

cat /var/log/dovecot/dovecot.log | grep imap-login:\ Info:\ Login | sed -e 's/.*Login: user=<\(.*\)>, m ethod=.*/\1/g' | sort | uniq | wc -l

I've been using Duplicati where I need a standalone backup of a thing. Web based management interface makes it super simple to manage.

Vultr got back to me last week with an email -

"Hello,

We are continuing to review our OS template and application images, and should be applying comprehensive changes across all available deploy images in the near future.

Your continued patience and understanding is appreciated in the meantime.

If you have any followup questions or concerns, please feel free to reach out."

@DustinB3403 said in Need video recording software for Fedora:

I assume you're going to be looking to do production quality work with this then?

Meh, down the road, sure. Right now, I feel it is more important to get content created in order to even get an idea on how well it will work for our goal.

Production quality can be hired if it is found to be worth that cost.

@DustinB3403 said in KVM networking & teaming:

@fuznutz04 no he's saying you can only assign it in VM or via CLI. You still create your team.

I think he is actually saying, you can create the NIC team in Cockpit. (You can, I did it already), but you then just assign that team, via the VM Guest settings. ...I think.

For what's it's worth, that is what I said.

@JaredBusch I have a couple clients using Synology for their auth needs and it's been working extremely well.

Dont' use bullet/number lists in instructions and guides like this. it makes it annoying for those that want to copy and paste.

This guide is assuming that you are running as root. If not prepend everything here with sudo.
