I wrote a tutorial about the remote connection in LibreOffice, see this article.
The main problem with LibreOffice development is the changes.
Now the feature Open remote is not working.
The bug is officially recognized and represented, see the page.
They inform us, see comment 31:
John R Mead 2017-12-17 22:43:03 UTC
Well, it still doesn't work with LibreOffice Version: 6.0.0.0.beta1 (x64); I'm not providing screenshots this time since it's identical in everyway to my previous attempts. At the end of all the copy/pasting between LibreOffice and my browser to get all the relevant permissions, when I finally make the attempt to connect, I get the same message: The specified device is invalid.
Current system configuration of potentially relevant software:
Windows 10 Professional (x64) Version 1709 (build 16299.125)
Java 9.0.1
Microsoft - OneDrive version 17.25.1.0 (x64)
LibreOffice Version: 6.0.0.0.beta1 (x64)
It's a common practice to see open-source software with bugs, most bugs are already available to users to avoid problems.
Most backup bugs are authentication and changes in development.

Fedora 28 : The Revel framework with golang.
The development team has a very effective text:
A high productivity, full-stack web framework for the Go language.
They used this words:
Revel provides routing, parameter parsing, validation, session/flash, templating, caching, job running, a testing framework, and even internationalization. I tested it yesterday and today I will show you how effective it is.
This framework is very easy to install and use it with Fedora 28.
I could say this is like django framework with the temptation style.
Let's start with a simple example into a folder created by me and named gocode:
Let's add a golang variable named greeting to app.go and Index.html files:
This is result of two screenshots from start install and after I change with the variable greeting.

[mythcat@desk ~]$ mkdir ~/gocode
[mythcat@desk ~]$ export GOPATH=~/gocode
[mythcat@desk ~]$ echo export GOPATH=$GOPATH >> ~/.bash_profile
[mythcat@desk ~]$ cd gocode/

[mythcat@desk gocode]$ revel helpDEBUG 19:24:09 revel server.go:27: arguments by adding nil

usage: revel command [arguments]
The commands are:
new create a skeleton Revel application
run run a Revel application
build build a Revel application (e.g. for deployment)
package package a Revel application (e.g. for deployment)
clean clean a Revel application's temp files
test run all tests from the command-line
version displays the Revel Framework and Go version
Use "revel help [command]" for more information.
[mythcat@desk gocode]$ ls
bin pkg src
[mythcat@desk gocode]$ revel new myapp

Your application is ready:
/home/mythcat/gocode/src/myapp
You can run it with:
revel run myapp
[mythcat@desk gocode]$ revel run myapp

...
Let's see the source code - in this case the default files: app.go and Index.html .[mythcat@desk gocode]$ cd src/myapp/app/
[mythcat@desk app]$ ls
controllers init.go routes tmp views
[mythcat@desk app]$ cd controllers/
[mythcat@desk controllers]$ ls
app.go
[mythcat@desk controllers]$ cat app.go
package controllers
import (
"github.com/revel/revel"
)
type App struct {
*revel.Controller
}
func (c App) Index() revel.Result {
return c.Render()
}
[mythcat@desk App]$ cat Index.html
The cat command will show the source code of Index.html file.Let's add a golang variable named greeting to app.go and Index.html files:
[mythcat@desk controllers]$ cat app.go
package controllers
import (
"github.com/revel/revel"
)
type App struct {
*revel.Controller
}
func (c App) Index() revel.Result {
greeting := "Fedora and revel framework !"
return c.Render(greeting)
}
This variable greeting will will be add into file Index.html with tag p after It works!This is result of two screenshots from start install and after I change with the variable greeting.

Fedora 28 : Godot example with linux .
Today I tested a simple example with the game engine named Godot version 3.0.6.
It was created on a Windows 8.1 operating system and exported as a linux application.
I moved the two files to the Fedora 28 operating system.

Fedora 28 : Unusual arguments for the dnf command.
Today I will introduce you in this tutorial some more unusual arguments for the dnf command.
get detailed information of a package can be viewed with the ‘info’ argument;
allows us to see what has happened to our Linux system over time, and even undo, redo, or roll back a transaction;
take actions will be quicker with the ‘makecache’ argument
list all packages that are currently installed on your Linux system;
- first is check which package provides that file;

Fedora 28 : Using the python module sh .
Today I test another python module named sh with python version 3.6.5 and Fedora 28.

You can read bout this python module here.
I used dnf tool to search and install the pip tool :

Fedora 28 : Godot game engine.
Today I tested the new version of Godot game engine - version 3.0.3 .
You can download it from official webpage.
I used the 64 bit version.
After download and unzip you can run the binary file in your user terminal.
The Godot game engine start with a GUI.
Into the right area of screen into Scene tab two objects: Spatial and Camera.
You need to select or add a WoldEnvironment node.
Take a look to the Inspector and use with New Environment .
Run this with the play icon.
If is all right you can see something like this:
Create e new folder into your project and name it Export.
Copy the mscorelib.dll into this folder.
Go to main menu and select Project - Export and you will see this GUI for export your game.
Press Add button to select Linux/X11 output:
Select Linux and press Export Project button.
Go to Export folder and run from your linux terminal your game.
This game engine working well with Fedora 28 and the export running without errors.
You can download it from official webpage.

Fedora 28 : ARM programming and testing .
This is a simple tutorial about ARM programming and QEMU:
The test.c program is this :
Using volatile keyword is necessary to instruct the compiler that the memory pointed.
The unsigned int type enforces 32-bits read and write access.
The QEMU model like in a real system on chip the Transmit FIFO Full flag must be checked in the UARTFR register before writing on the UARTDR register.
Create the startup.s assembler file:
The test.c program is this :
volatile unsigned int * const UART0DR = (unsigned int *)0x101f1000;
void print_uart0(const char *s) {
while(*s != '\0') { /* Loop until end of string */
*UART0DR = (unsigned int)(*s); /* Transmit char */
s++; /* Next char */
}
}
void c_entry() {
print_uart0("Hello world!\n");
}

The unsigned int type enforces 32-bits read and write access.
The QEMU model like in a real system on chip the Transmit FIFO Full flag must be checked in the UARTFR register before writing on the UARTDR register.
Create the startup.s assembler file:
.global _Reset
_Reset:
LDR sp, =stack_top
BL c_entry
B .
Create the script linker named test.ld:
ENTRY(_Reset)
SECTIONS
{
. = 0x10000;
.startup . : { startup.o(.text) }
.text : { *(.text) }
.data : { *(.data) }
.bss : { *(.bss COMMON) }
. = ALIGN(8);
. = . + 0x1000; /* 4kB of stack memory */
stack_top = .;
}

Fedora 28 : Using python to create old GUI.
The asciimatics python module provides a widgets sub-package that allows you to create interactive text user interfaces.
This python module lets you create full-screen text UIs and interactive forms to ASCII animations. The python module was created to working with any platform and python version 2 and 3.
It is licensed under the Apache Software Foundation License 2.0, see this license here.
Let see the installation process using the Fedora 28 and python version 3.6:
Some samples require some extra python module and you will need to install them.

Fedora 28 : The Lynis and system security .
Lynis is a lightweight and easy open source auditing tool to evaluate current system security.
The official webpage can be found here.
I tested the version 263 and now the Fedora development team test the 264 version.
This tool will show you a detailed report of each and every aspect of system :

- Boot and services
- Kernel
- Memory and processes
- Users, groups, and authentication
- File systems
- Home directories
- File permissions
- Software: Malware
- Security frameworks
- Logging and files
- SSH support
# dnf install lynis
# lynis audit system >> lynix_out.txt
The result is a text file ( 27 Kb sized for my system ) with all infos about your current system security.

Fedora 28 : Can you fix your Fedora !?
Fedora Packages have a different installation and development process thanks to testing and development teams.
Note: The common user may have networking problems and these will still lead to further errors.
A common error that should be more documented and constrained is:
Error: Failed to synchronize cache for repo 'updates'.
If you did not have intruders in the computer or provider changes to modify this process, then here are some elements that help you understand how it works.
The process of cleanup of temporary files kept for repositories and update / upgrade is still a testing and development process.
This includes any such data left behind from disabled or removed repositories as well as for different distribution release versions.

- dnf clean dbcache : this removes cache files generated from the repository metadata and forces DNF to regenerate the cache files the next time it is run.
- dnf clean expire-cache : this marks the repository metadata expired and will re-validate the cache for each repo the next time it is used.
- dnf clean metadata : just removes repository metadata files which is uses to determine the remote availability of packages and will make to download all the metadata the next time it is run.
- dnf clean packages : removes any cached packages from the system.
- dnf clean all : does all of the above.
dnf update --refresh
This will make a update but with this feature:
--refresh will set metadata as expired before running the command.
