To enable menu icons in gnome-shell this command does the trick:
gsettings set org.gnome.settings-daemon.plugins.xsettings overrides "{'Gtk/ButtonImages': <1>, 'Gtk/MenuImages': <1>}"
Tested under Fedora 22 and 23.
See https://docs.docker.com/v1.6/installation/fedora/
“The docker command line tool contacts the docker daemon process via a socket file /var/run/docker.sock owned by root:root. Though it’s recommended to use sudo for docker commands, if users wish to avoid it, an administrator can create a docker group, have it own /var/run/docker.sock, and add users to this group.”
sudo groupadd docker sudo chown root:docker /var/run/docker.sock sudo usermod -a -G docker $USERNAME
Don’t forget to relogin to make this change take effect.
Recently I had a problem on Fedora 23 with android tools:
./fastboot devices
bash: ./fastboot: /lib/ld-linux.so.2: bad ELF interpreter: No such file or directory
This resolved this issue:
sudo dnf install libstdc++.i686
I found a good and working tutorial unter http://www.if-not-true-then-false.com/2015/fedora-nvidia-guide/.
Here my notes for Fedora 23 and my GTX980:
# all commands have to be run as root # remove nouceau driver dnf clean all dnf update dnf install kernel-devel kernel-headers gcc dkms acpid echo "blacklist nouveau" >> /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf # append rd.driver.blacklist=nouveau to GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX in /etc/sysconfig/grub grub2-mkconfig -o /boot/grub2/grub.cfg grub2-mkconfig -o /boot/efi/EFI/fedora/grub.cfg dnf remove xorg-x11-drv-nouveau mv /boot/initramfs-$(uname -r).img /boot/initramfs-$(uname -r)-nouveau.img dracut /boot/initramfs-$(uname -r).img $(uname -r) # reboot to command line systemctl set-default multi-user.target reboot # install driver bash NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-358.16.run # follow instructions and choose yes if aksed questions # reboot to gui systemctl set-default graphical.target reboot # install some extra packages dnf install vdpauinfo libva-vdpau-driver libva-utils
To mount an nfs filesystem under fedora 17 I had to take the following steps:
The first step installs the needed libraries to be able to mount nfs. This is like nfs-common under debian based distris. The second step eliminates the following error:
mount.nfs: rpc.statd is not running but is required for remote locking.
mount.nfs: Either use ‘-o nolock’ to keep locks local, or start statd.
mount.nfs: an incorrect mount option was specified
