Hi all,
Playing with Fedora 25. I'm shocked to see the terminal is still hidden
away in the utilities group.
I'm pretty sure near 100% of users add Terminal to the favorites
immediately after install.
Surely the #1 use case of Fedora on the desktop IS the terminal?

I find the attitude of many of the senior fedora people quite

It's a dictatorship.
My observations are that the systemd people are not the best people for the

One really great reason to install Fedora server is that logging, using
rsyslog, works out of the box.
After learning this (this list, last week), I will be avoiding any desktop
type installers, preferring the server image for workstation and laptop
installs.

Hi all,
What kind of secret voodoo does one need to use rsyslog on a systemd

Hi all,
I just ran authconfig-tui to configure my F21 system for kerberos and ldap.
When I reboot, Fedora gives me the firstboot screen EVERY TIME now.
Prior to running authconfig-tui, my system was working fine, and had been
for weeks.
If i attempt to setup a new account, it hangs indefinetly.
Personally, I'm somewhat amused.
So the iptables scripts were broken. We all know that.
Instead of fixing them, let's make a whole new firewalld thing!

So my 2013 dell can't quite drive my new 4k display. It's missing DP1.2 on

won't drive a second sub-hd display i have laying about)

Hi all,
It seems libreoffice depends on libcmis-0.4.so.4()(64bit), yet there is no
libcmis-0.4.so.4()(64bit) in any fedora repo.
I do see libcmis-0.3.1-8.fc20.x86_64, but this is in the os repo, and not
