Building local repository on Fedora 22.

0 votes
391 views

I am downloading (with rsync) the x86_64 os and updates, but noticed how little there is under the os directories, and that there is this 'everything' tree with all of the rpms for the os.

Can I rsync the everything packages and repodata directories on top of the os tree to make a complete setup, or do I have to have to keep the everything tree separate?

Best answer

Your question is ambigous, because there is a "os" directory in both the "Everything" repo and in each separate product tree.
Example:

Fedora 22 GNOME Workstation (x86_64) repo:
http://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/fedora/linux/releases/22/Workstation/x86_64/os/

Fedora 22 Everything (x86_64) repo:
http://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/fedora/linux/releases/22/Everything/x86_64/os/

The "Everything" repo contains all packages at the time of release. The other trees contains just the packages as used by the
individual product installation media.

So, yes, you can mirror "Everything", but think twice. How many of the packages in that huge collection do you really need? I would rather mirror the product repo you really use. The updates and updates-testing repos may grow a lot, too, and include many updates you don't need either.

How to set video resolution permanently in Fedora 22?

I want my Fedora 22 box to run at a video resolution of 1680x1050.

I added and selected that resolution by doing:

$ xrandr --newmode "1680x1050_60.00"  146.25  1680 1784 1960 2240  1050 1053 1059 1089 -hsync +vsync
$ xrandr --addmode VGA-0 1680x1050_60.00
$ xrandr --output VGA-0 --mode 1680x1050_60.00

That worked, but when I reboot the resolution reverts to 1280x1024.

I tried creating file:

/etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/40-monitor.conf

and putting in it:

Section "Monitor"
 Identifier "VGA-0"
 Option "PreferredMode" "1680x1050_60.00"
EndSection

but that had no effect (perhaps because the resolution was not found after the reboot).

How can I set the resolution to 1680x1050 permanently?

F22: where is the files hids-id.h in the Fedora22 kernels?

On the kernels from kernel.org, we have the file hid-ids.h in:

linux-4.0.5/drivers/hid/hid-ids.h

This kernel is however missing from my F22 installation (with the Fedora kernel).

Any pointer of the possible location.
