AlmaLinux 9 and XFCE sound problem
by Alessandro Baggi 29 Nov '25

29 Nov '25

Hey there, I installed Almalinux OS 9 on my notebook. I installed XFCE but I'm getting problem with audio because xfce4-pulseaudio plugin is missing and I can't change sound volume except on the specific program that play the music (In my case audacious and firefox). Currently I don't know if I must open a "please build xfce4-pulseaudio-plugin" on epel or if I should use something due to pipewire. I enabled also epel-testing to check if the package was in testing but seems missing. Someone has the same problem? Thank you in advance.

AlmaLinux 9.1 Problem on MDADM raid1
by Alessandro Baggi 17 Feb '24

17 Feb '24

Hi Jack, I'm sorry to bother you during holidays. I encountered a strange problem installing AlmaLinux 9.1 on a RAID1 (MDADM) with the current configuration: - /boot/efi on md125 - swap on md126 - / on md127 disks are 2 SSD MLC Type. After the installation, if I reboot the system I get: "md: md125 stopped" (it is printed many times like in a loop) alternated with: "systemd-shutdown[1]: Not all MD devices stopped, 1 left Stopping MD Devices Stopping MD /dev/md125 (9:125)" and the system hangs on this loop until I cut the power. I encountered this issue on my Workstation with Asus Prime Z490-A / i9-10850k. I tried with another workstation that runs on Asus Prime Z370-A / i7 8700K, to exclude bad SATA controller and bad cables. Also on the second workstation the problem is found. I tried to replicate this using 9.0 ISO. The problem does not occur until I update to 9.1 I tried also with 8.7. No problem here. I tried also RockyLinux 9.1 and got the same problem but with different messages: "block device autoconfig is deprecated and will removed" alternated with: "blkdev_get_no_open: 270 callbacks suppressed." To stop the machine I need to cut the power. I tried also Debian 11.5 without problems. So seems that the problem is 9.1 related. Actually I can't test the same with RHEL 9.1 but probably the problem will occour also on RHEL 9.1 There is a way to fix this or I should wait an upgrade? Thank you in advance.

Introducing AlmaLinux Accounts
by Jonathan Wright 04 May '23

04 May '23

Over the past few months, our infrastructure team <https://wiki.almalinux.org/sigs/Infrastructure.html> has been hard at work preparing our single sign-on system that will provide a unified login experience to nearly all AlmaLinux websites and properties. We are happy to announce the launch of https://accounts.almalinux.org! AlmaLinux Accounts <https://accounts.almalinux.org> will give you a single account to use across the array of sites and services offered by AlmaLinux! In addition it eases the process of onboarding new contributors through centralized groups and permissions. Why? Introducing our Single Sign-On (SSO) system offers numerous benefits for both users and the AlmaLinux OS Foundation. SSO enhances security, streamlines access, and simplifies user management across our ecosystem. With a single set of credentials, users can seamlessly navigate all AlmaLinux websites and services. This unified login experience ultimately boosts productivity, fosters collaboration, and provides a more cohesive and personalized experience for our community. Software Stack In the spirit of FOSS, it was only natural for us to stick with a free and open-source software stack. The chosen components should be familiar to anyone who has dealt with directory management or SSO in the Enterprise Linux space. We took inspiration from Fedora’s account system for some components. We have chosen the following FOSS components to power our SSO: - FreeIPA <https://www.freeipa.org> for directory and user management. - Noggin <https://github.com/fedora-infra/noggin>, a web front-end for user self-service. We’ve been doing work in the Fedora project to get noggin and its dependencies added to EPEL 9. This will benefit anyone looking to deploy noggin on RHEL 9 or RHEL 9 compatible distros. 1 - Keycloak <https://www.keycloak.org/>, an OpenID Connect system to sit between applications and LDAP. We’ve started contributing to a playbook mostly maintained by RHEL engineers to help ease the deployment of Keycloak on EL distros. 2 What About My Existing Account(s)? We have a transition plan for the next few weeks to get all systems fully supporting our AlmaLinux Accounts <https://accounts.almalinux.org> and all existing accounts transitioned into the system, or otherwise integrated. chat.almalinux.org (Mattermost) chat.almalinux.org is the single largest standalone user database we have to transition. Luckily this is a very easy and painless task for us as well as users. After you’ve created your AlmaLinux Account <https://accounts.almalinux.org>, navigate to the Profile -> Security section in Mattermost. [image: Step 1 of converting MatterMost account to use AlmaLinux Accounts] From here click on Edit next to Sign-in Method and then Switch to Using OpenID SSO and you can link your new AlmaLinux account. *Keep in mind that once you link your account you will always use your AlmaLinux account to sign in to chat.almalinux.org <http://chat.almalinux.org>.* [image: Step 2 of associating chat.almalinux.org account with AlmaLinux Accounts] On the next screen enter your current chat.almalinux.org (Mattermost) password. [image: Step 3 of associating chat.almalinux.org account with AlmaLinux Accounts]) Finally, log in using your AlmaLinux Account details. [image: Step 4 of associating chat.almalinux.org account with AlmaLinux Accounts] From now on when you log in to chat.almalinux.org you will use your AlmaLinux Account via the dedicated login button: [image: How to log in to chat.almalinux.org/Mattermost with AlmaLinux Accounts] bugs.almalinux.org All existing users on bugs.almalinux.org have been imported as AlmaLinux Accounts. You can gain access to the account by requesting a password reset at https://accounts.almalinux.org/forgot-password/ask using your username. git.almalinux.org git.almalinux.org was originally setup with only GitHub as an authentication source. This is now disabled and you must use your AlmaLinux Account to log in. If you wish to recover your previous git.almalinux.org account send an email to account-merge(a)almalinux.org from the address tied to your GitHub and AlmaLinux accounts and we can tie them together for you. lists.almalinux.org lists.almalinux.org has been tied into AlmaLinux Accounts <https://accounts.almalinux.org> for a few weeks now. Existing lists accounts can be linked to AlmaLinux Accounts seamlessly. Login option for new accounts: [image: Step 1 of associating lists.almalinux.org account with AlmaLinux Accounts] Tie your existing account to your AlmaLinux Account at https://lists.almalinux.org/accounts/social/connections/: [image: Step 2 of associating lists.almalinux.org account with AlmaLinux Accounts] pes.almalinux.org The Package Evolution Service (PES) will be updated with OIDC support, and subsequently AlmaLinux Account support soon. build.almalinux.org The AlmaLinux Build System (ALBS) will be updated with OIDC support, and subsequently AlmaLinux Account support soon. Other There are various other services used by contributors which are mostly tied into AlmaLinux Accounts already with a few to follow soon. Frequently Asked Questions *Q:* I configured 2FA/OTP at https://accounts.almalinux.org but *service/site XYZ* does not have a field for my OTP on the login page. *A:* All sites tied to AlmaLinux Accounts <https://accounts.almalinux.org> support your 2FA/OTP. Simply add it to the end of your password in the password field when logging in. For example if your password is hunter2 and your OTP is 123456 you would enter hunter2123456 into the password field. *Q:* Where should I go for help? *A:* The Infrastructure Channel on Mattermost <https://chat.almalinux.org/almalinux/channels/infrastructure>, IRC <https://web.libera.chat/#almalinux-infrastructure>, mailing list <https://lists.almalinux.org/mailman3/lists/infra.lists.almalinux.org/>. *Q:* Where can I use my AlmaLinux Account <https://accounts.almalinux.org>? *A: *See the table in the blog post <https://almalinux.org/blog/almalinux-accounts-launch/#frequently-asked-ques…> . ------------------------------ 1 *https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-EPEL-2023-b0e8a9d618 <https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-EPEL-2023-b0e8a9d618>* *https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-EPEL-2023-cfcb055a9f <https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-EPEL-2023-cfcb055a9f>* *https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-EPEL-2023-fdfb8a6342 <https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-EPEL-2023-fdfb8a6342>* *https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-EPEL-2023-3b54948adb <https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-EPEL-2023-3b54948adb>* *https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-EPEL-2023-46e518d693 <https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-EPEL-2023-46e518d693>* *https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-EPEL-2023-607e3d35c7 <https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-EPEL-2023-607e3d35c7>* *https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-EPEL-2023-6215554ad9 <https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-EPEL-2023-6215554ad9>* *https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2174923 <https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2174923>* 2 *https://github.com/ansible-middleware/keycloak/pull/73 <https://github.com/ansible-middleware/keycloak/pull/73>* --- Jonathan Wright AlmaLinux Foundation Mattermost: chat <https://chat.almalinux.org/almalinux/messages/@jonathan>
