My first computer was Amstrad Schneider PC1512SD so it's understandable that I'm attached to that computer. I own two of them but since lately I don't have enough time to play with them I started to search for emulators to be able to try from time to time old software and games I've used. Since I lost some time to figure out how to emulate Amstrad, I decided to document everything in this| Everything about nothing
I had a seemingly simple problem, connect over SSH to remote computer and lock the screen. Simple Google search for "gnome lock screen" yielded a plenty of results all of which revolving about using command gnome-screensaver-command -l. First of, the package gnome-screensaver isn't installed by default on Fedora, meaning it isn't used there. Then, after installing it I got the| Everything about nothing
Well, after upgrading Fedora 25 which included kernel 4.9.5, VMWare Workstation stopped working again! The fix is easy, even though it annoying to constantly have to patch something in VMWare. Anyway, the procedure - taken from here - is: Switch to root account. Go to /usr/lib/vmware/modules/source. Make backup of files vmmon.tar and vmnet.tar. Unpack those files using 'tar xf' command.

I'm monitoring lot of sites using RSS so having a good RSS feed reader is mandatory for me. Once upon a time, I used Liferea but since I have a lots of RSS feeds with lots of posts I want to keep around, turned out that Liferea wasn't designed with scalability in mind. So, I decided to find another one. Web based readers are out of question, because I prefer desktop applications. Not to mention| Everything about nothing
As usual, when Fedora upgrades kernel to a new major version VMWare stops working. In this particular case my Fedora was upgraded to Linux kernel version 4.7.2. The fix I found is the following one: # cd /usr/lib/vmware/modules/source# tar xf vmnet.tar# mv vmnet.tar vmnet.old.tar# sed -i -e 's/dev->trans_start = jiffies/netif_trans_update\(dev\)/g' vmnet-only/netif.c# tar cf vmnet.tar| Everything about nothing
I just updated Fedora 24 from update-testing repository and that pulled Linux kernel 4.6. Well, as usual, VMWare Workstation needed some patching in order to work. Luckily, I quickly found a fix on VMWare forums. Note that at the end of the thread there is a script you can use to automatically patch necessary files. But, be careful, I didn't try it!
