Disabling automatic updates
by Patrick Begou 09 Jan '24

09 Jan '24

Hi, I have several Alma Linux 8 and Alma Linux 9 boxes. Some of them (strangely not all) are running automatic updates: - some boxes at boot time - other with a pop-up in a user session (requesting also to reboot). These session are using Gnome or KDE I've done some investigation with google, disabling automatic download for dnf, but automatic updates still occur and I do not found where I can disable this. That looks strange for me is that deployment is kickstarted based with similar kickstart file with the same initial rpm base (then I update all the rpms with dnf) This behaviour is not correct in a professional environment as we must have stable libraries versions and run updates intentionally. Thanks for your help Patrick

Notification for insert of optical disk
by Gerhard Sporer 27 Nov '23

27 Nov '23

Hi there, we did make an upgrade of our headless appliance (a DVD read-roboter) from CentOs 6.9 to AlmaLinux 8.8. CentOS 6.9 did fire a UDEV-notification every time the DVD-Tray did something (insert cd, read CD, eject,...) and we could react on that. AlmaLinux 8.8 now uses systemd, therefore the UDEV-notifications only happen, if the filesystem of the media is correctly identified - which does not happen if for example the media is scratched and therefore not readable. Now there is a CD inside the tray - and we do have no clue. If we use a vanilla AlmaLinux 8.8 with KDE and insert a scratched CD - after some time the CD gets ejected - and we have not found out, which service does this. Is there a possibility to get notified, when a CD is inserted - regardless of the readability. Thanks Gerhard PS: i did post this question in the german-list as well: https://lists.almalinux.org/hyperkitty/list/users-de@lists.almalinux.org/th…

Support for Mono vbc.exe
by TTT 21 Aug '23

21 Aug '23

I have installed a variety of mono packages from the repo (as shown below), as well as mono-basic which was part of FC38 repo (to get vbnc.exe). While overall working well, I still need the vbc.exe program. This is part of mono-complete in other distros, but it seem FC/RH family of RPM's don't offer this. Would anyone know how to get vbc.exe into a AlmaLinux 9 system? I'm hoping NOT to recompile the entire mono project just to get that one executable. mono-data-sqlite-6.12.0-5.el9.x86_64 mono-extras-6.12.0-5.el9.x86_64 mono-data-6.12.0-5.el9.x86_64 mono-mvc-6.12.0-5.el9.x86_64 mono-wcf-6.12.0-5.el9.x86_64 mono-web-6.12.0-5.el9.x86_64 mono-core-6.12.0-5.el9.x86_64 mono-winforms-6.12.0-5.el9.x86_64 monodoc-6.12.0-5.el9.x86_64 mono-devel-6.12.0-5.el9.x86_64 mono-basic-4.7-11.fc38.x86_64 mono-winfx-6.12.0-5.el9.x86_64 mono-reactive-6.12.0-5.el9.x86_64 mono-locale-extras-6.12.0-5.el9.x86_64 mono-data-oracle-6.12.0-5.el9.x86_64 mono-complete-6.12.0-5.el9.x86_64

24 Jul '23

Use your computer to play Rally Racer EVO. Getting your driver's license is a must before joining any group or even driving a car or other vehicle. Similarly, in Rally Racer EVO, you will need to do the same. Getting your driver's license is Step One on the Road to the Ultimate Rally Racing Experience. If you want to get into the exciting world of rally racing, you'll need to enroll in one of 32 different licensing classes. If you want to be a genuine driver, you need to finish them as quickly as possible. Once you've obtained your driver's license, you may enter Events Mode and compete in over eighty-five different races. Compete in six different races to prove your mettle as a rally racer. Rally racing prowess may also be shown in the game's Arena Mode. You'll want to practice your drifting talents in this mode. There are four different game modes to try out, and no matter which one you choose, you'll have a great time showing off your driving talents. Supercars That Feel Like the Real Thing Rally Racer EVO has not just many game modes, but also a garage full of actual supercars from which to choose. Additionally, these automobiles may be made even more potent by upgrading and experimenting with the available modification choices. Your supercar may be customized to reflect your own taste. This racing game is already fantastic, but it's much better since it has 12 beautiful circuits that can be customized for different weather and lighting circumstances. Realistic physics and handling, like you'd experience in a physical automobile, are also readily apparent. The visuals and audio in this game have been finely tuned to enhance the realism of the experience. Connect: https://backroomsgame.io

Tips and tricks to master in 1v1 lol
by noteminnow＠gmail.com 27 Jun '23

27 Jun '23

Tip 1 It's simply how to fire without using your crosshairs. Just shooting near your opponent will ensure that your bullets strike them. It doesn't even have to be turned on, and your crosshair may be close to them. You don't have to aim at them for it to strike them perfectly. This will come in handy if you shock them once and then use your AR. Larger bullets spread so that even if you miss a little bit, you still strike them, and it's a strong technique to achieve this, so take use of it. Tip 2 So, essentially, you have to create a floor then spam leap if you're building up and your opponent puts a ramp above you. Tip 3 To begin, ensure that school is turned on, then construct a wall, go to the opposite side of the wall, and scroll. We'll simply scroll the wheel and you'll walk right through the wall, so when you approach it, just scroll the wheel up or down and you'll walk right through it. This is similar to breaking past barriers in a competitive game. Tip 4 There are several methods to personalize your name, and most of them are simple. To begin, how do you alter the color of your name? You will put "color= + "name of color you want" + >" + "your name" (Example: color=red> Pete). Second, change the size. Write "size= + "a number you want" + >" + your name" (Example: size=15> Pete). The next step is to make this form bold: "b> + your name". You can also make your name italics and underlined by typing I + your name" and "u> + your name" in the appropriate fields. Tip 5 It's extremely simple to float in 1v1 lol, but not everyone knows how. All you have to do is left-click and spam G! The material shown here has been gathered and compiled to provide you with a general knowledge of the game. https://1v1-lol.io

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>

AlmaLinux 9.1 and rsync problem
by Alessandro Baggi 13 Apr '23

13 Apr '23

Hey there, I'm using AlmaLinux 9.1 as my backup server using a script. I noticed that if I run: rsync --cc=xxh128.... it reports: unknown checksum name: xxh128 while inside the rsync manual page this checksum is documented. Running rsync --version I get: Checksum list: md5 md4 none Seems that other checksum type where disabled on compilation but reported on documentation. The absence of xxh128/xxh64 is a bug or them are disabled by default on compilation? Thank you in advance.

What is syncthing in alma linux

Syncthing is installed automaticaly but what does this process with the remote server ? (base) bash-4.4$ netstat -puta |grep syncthing tcp 0 0 0.0.0.0:35533 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN 4902/syncthing tcp 0 0 localhost:38257 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN 4902/syncthing tcp 0 0 xxxxxxxx.legi:kitim 195.219.124.44:https ESTABLISHED 4902/syncthing udp 0 0 0.0.0.0:32779 0.0.0.0:* 4902/syncthing udp 0 0 0.0.0.0:35533 0.0.0.0:* 4902/syncthing udp 0 0 0.0.0.0:21027 0.0.0.0:* 4902/syncthing I read it that “Syncthing replaces proprietary sync and cloud services with something open, trustworthy and decentralized. Your data is your data alone and you deserve to choose where it is stored, if it is shared with some third party and how it's transmitted over the Internet." But I do not want to share my datas!

Alma 9 keep server up and running.

How do I keep my server from "sleeping". It shuts down, but power light is still on and nothing will bring it back except power cycling. I've tried everything I can find on disabling sleep and hibernation but it still keeps "sleeping". What good is a web server that doesn't stay up and running?

AlmaLinux on WSL initscripts
by Travis Newton 24 Feb '23

24 Feb '23

Hello, I’m having an issue with Windows 10, WSL, and AlmaLinux 8. WSL is at version 1.0.3.0 so what I am trying to do should work. But since it’s easy to blame Microsoft, I am going to do that for the time being. 😊 I am trying to use systemd within WSL running AlmaLinux. AlmaLinux is fully updated on 8.7. I edited /etc/wsl.conf to include [boot] and setting systemd as true. I’ve restarted WSL (and the Windows computer), and still for the life of me, I cannot get AlmaLinux to load systemd. The fallback should be using initscripts. Obviously, RHEL (so AlmaLinux), have moved to systemd but there is an initscripts package. I installed that and even restarted WSL for good measure, but unfortunately it redirects service to systemctl and then it complains that the system was booted as init and not systemd and it can’t operate. So my question is, has anyone either got systemd working on AlmaLinux under WSL or has anyone got initscripts working? I’ve been Googling this like mad but all I’ve been able to find are articles regarding Ubuntu. Thanks in advance if anyone can provide some insight!

Wine 32bit
by John Thompson 14 Feb '23

Has anybody gotten wine to work in Almalinux-9.1 with 32bit PE executables? I can compile wine-8 for 64bit executable support, but I haven't been able to install a 32-bit development environment for 32-bit support. -- -John (JohnDThompson(a)gmail.com) Appleton, WI USA
