Thanks systemd folks!

I have a small computer setup at home. I have three laptops one of which is my "server". Nothing fancy - just runs owncloud and mediawiki for my use around the house. The "server" runs RHEL-7 while my other two laptops run Fedora 21 Xfce

The reason for this post is - ever since I setup my little server, my appreciation for systemd has gone up significantly. It has been incredibly easy to setup everything I wanted, as I wanted. I have no idea about large enterprise level networks - for my setup - it's hands down amazing!

One thing I have done ever since I started using Linux (not very long ago) was look at system logs. With journalctl, I feel, monitoring logs is much easier. The man page is easy to read, fairly clear and very easy to filter the logs!

Long story short - Thanks folks for a quality product! Kudos!

Xfce 4.12 COPR availbale for Fedora 20 and 21

A COPR repo for Xfce 4.12 is now ready for Fedora 21 and 20. The link to the COPR repo is https://copr.fedoraproject.org/coprs/nonamedotc/xfce412/ If you are one of those using dnf on Fedora 21, the repo can be enabled using dnf copr enable nonamedotc/xfce412 Alternatively, visit the link above and download the .repo file and add it to /etc/yum.repos.d . New package : xfce4-pulseaudio-plugin is a new panel plugin that is available in this repo. Important:    If you have my xfce411 COPR repo enabled, disable it. That repo will go away very soon.     xfce4-mixer in xfce411 COPR repo is version 4.11 whereas one in xfce412 repo is xfce4-mixer-4.10.x. This might need uninstalling the 4.11 version followed by installing the older version from 412 repo. Please report all bug reports related to packages in this COPR repo directly to me. Please do NOT bugzilla for these packages. Alternatively, use Fedoraforums (this link) - http://for...

Xfce 4.11 (development version) repo

Xfce 4.11, the development release in the journey towards the next stable 4.12, was released recently. I have built some Xfce 4.11 components for Fedora 20 and rawhide in COPR. It is not complete yet - xfce4-session is missing for one. I have not seen any problems in my test virtual machines or on my laptop - but that's no assurance. For those who want to try, repository links are below. But first, ** Do not use bugzilla for reporting bugs for this COPR package ** Here is the link to my Xfce - 4.11 repo - https://copr.fedoraproject.org/coprs/nonamedotc/xfce411/ Although, page shows Fedora 19 repo, do NOT try these packages on Fedora 19. Good luck! :)
