DND Issues in Gnome (GTK3 regression)
by Leon Fauster 11 May '20

11 May '20

Does someone uses EL8 as a workstation (GUI) here? This bug is super annoying https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1808900 and it seems not to get addressed in the current branch. How could a developer work with a forced delay in the UI (since a year now). Solution maybe in 8.3 ETA end of the year? Seems that all RH employees uses OSX as workstation (my impression of the summit) :-) This bug is located in gtk3 and should also hit non-GNOME users. Am I the only one here? Is CentOS Stream the workplace to address this bug? -- Leon

Zoom....
by mark 10 May '20

10 May '20

Hi, folks, Updated CentOS 7 the other day. Updated zoom last night. Ancient (15 yr old) USB camera, Logitech QuickCam Express. If I run LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib64/libv4l/v4l2convert.so cheese, I get video. Zoom, with or without the LD_PRELOAD - no video. I've tried stracing zoom, and created a file /etc/ld.so.preload, with the contents of /usr/lib64/libv4l/v4l2convert.so, and in strace, I see it loading it, but still no video. Anyone got any clues? Being a free end user, all zoom offers is the knowledge base.... mark

discord: things to do to run it.
by mark 10 May '20

10 May '20

Hi, folks, Installed discord last night, everything, including video worked, but not voice. As usual, I logged out last night before bed, and voice seems to work. Used the tgz, of course. HOWEVER, note that you *do* need to install libatomic for it to work properly, otherwise when it comes up, it says "the installation is corrupt", and the only button there, for help, is *ONLY* for Windows. I found through searching that it did need this. Install that, and no error message. mark

CentOS 8 and xvidtune and Nouveau
by Jerry Geis 09 May '20

09 May '20

I have an old laptop W530 I put CentOS 8 on. I was trying to install xvidtune - seems to not be available ? Thought that was part of X. Also trying to get Nouveau to be a higher resolution than 1024x768. I found the wiki, but adding video= to the kernel command line and regen grub did not do anything. Other documentation there seemed OLD. Anyone know how to correctly get Nouveau in 1920x1080? Thanks, Jerry

CentOS 8 installation
by isdtor 08 May '20

08 May '20

Are there still a lot of rough edges in this area? There are some things I simply can't get to work. This is about kickstart installations. Finding the right stuff for the %packages sections is lucky dip at best. The RHEL manual points to the comps file, really? This file isn't meant to be parsed by humans. Specifying an environment - the example "Infrastructure Server" doesn't exist. Is this one of the areas where CentOS deviates from RHEL? I did find server-product-environment, custom-environment, minimal-environment. I followed the link in the documentation to the kickstart file generator. The generated file isn't usable as is, specifically the %packages section - anaconda says there is no group dns-server, for instance. Which dnf later confirms. The group list in dnf also seems to be a lot shorter than it used to be under 7? Specifying %packages --multilib, this is where it breaks down completely. For the chosen group/package mix, which works perfectly without multilib, anaconda complains about conflicts for files provided by both the i686 and the x86_64 version of, in this case, gdb-headless and sssd-common. Attempting to fix this with -gdb-headless.i686 -sssd-common.i686 fails, these lines are being ignored. Excluding gdb-headless altogether fails also because the main gdb package pulls it in. Honestly, I'm not sure where to go from here.

libQt5Core.so ver 5.12
by cristiantorres110＠hotmail.com 08 May '20

08 May '20

Hello, For the last few days, 'dnf upgrade' on my Centos 8 installation has been showing problems saying that it cannot install the best update candidates for packages (kf5-*) because nothing provides libQtCore.so.5(Qt_5.12). My system shows that it presently has libQtCore.so.5(Qt_5.11). I've been keeping the system up to date using the --nobest option in dnf. I could download 'libqt5-core-5.12.8-alt3.x86_64.rpm ' from here and install it but I haven't dared to try. Is there an expectation for when version Qt_5.12 will be in the official repos? BR --Cristian
