Fedora 32 : Can be better? part 016.

Today I tested the Unity 3D version 2020 on Linux Fedora 32.
Maybe it would be better to integrate Unity 3D or Unity Hub in Fedora repo just like other useful software like Blender 3D, GIMP.
It will improve the user experience and attract new users and developers for this distro.
I download the AppImage from Unity website and I run with these commands:
[mythcat@desk Downloads]$ chmod a+x UnityHub.AppImage 
[mythcat@desk Downloads]$ ./UnityHub.AppImage 
r: 0

Fedora 32 : About positive and negative lookahead with Bash commands.

Today I will talk about something more complex in Linux commands called: positive and negative lookahead.
This solution can be found in several programming languages including Bash
The lookahead process is part of regular expressions.
The lookahead process looks ahead in the string and sees if it matches the given pattern, but then disregard it and move on.
It is very useful when we want to go through the strings.
The lookahead process can be both positive and negative depending on the purpose.
Negative lookahead is indispensable if you want to match something not followed by something else and looks like this:
q(?!s).
The string is the question q is analyzed and if it does not match and is not followed by s returns the result.
The positive lookahead it works the same way only now it is parsed if it corresponds to s.
The positive lookahead looks like this:
q(?=s)
Let's look at a simple example of detecting the PAE option for the processor.
We can use this command but we will find a lot of information ...
[root@desk mythcat]# cat /proc/cpuinfo
processor	: 0
vendor_id	: GenuineIntel
cpu family	: 6
model		: 58
model name	: Intel(R) Celeron(R) CPU G1620 @ 2.70GHz
stepping	: 9
...
In some cases, the resulting information can be taken using pipe and grep but they will be increasingly fragmented.
I will use the same command cpuinfo and we will look for the pae information in the flags.
All CPU flags can be found here.
Let's prove with internal lookahead to find the pae flag.
[root@desk mythcat]# cat /proc/cpuinfo | grep -oP '(?='pae')...' 
pae
pae
This result gives me additional information, namely that there are two cores.
Do you have a question?

Fedora 32 : Can be better? part 015.

In the evening I can spend my time with Fedora 32.

In the last few days I studied GTK # a bit.

I thought it would be useful for Linux users and those who use the language of the FASM assembler to have an editor.

Tonight I created this simple project this simple project named fasm_editor.

The objectives of this project are:

  • creating a functional editor;
  • implementation of running and compilation requirements;
  • settings specific to the Linux operating system;

I believe that this way Fedora Linux can be improved and become better.

Fedora 32 : Can be better? part 014.

The GTK documentation for C # is not very up to date, I tried to use a button to change a label and I failed first time. The Fedora team could improve this to develop the development side. Here's what I've managed to do so far with GTK.

I fixed the source code with this, but I would have preferred a better method:

my_Button.Clicked += delegate {
my_Label.Text = "Use delegate!";
};

Mono is a free and open source implementation of the .NET Framework.

The most popular build tool for Mono is NAnt.

NUnit is very useful for test driven development.

Let's start with a GTK project using the MonoDevelop I.D.E.

[mythcat@desk ProjectsCSharp]$ monodevelop 
I use a new solution from .NET with GTK# 2.0 Project template. The default source code is this:
using System;
using Gtk;

namespace MonoDevelopGTK_001
{
	class MainClass
	{
		public static void Main (string[] args)
		{
			Application.Init ();
			MainWindow win = new MainWindow ();
			win.Show ();
			Application.Run ();
		}
	}
}
The result is an simple window form. For a complex form with entry ,label and one button, you can see the next example:
using System;
using Gtk;

namespace MonoDevelopGTK_001
{
	
	class MainClass
	{
		public static void Main (string[] args)
		{
			// define here Entry and Button 
			Entry name;
			Button my_Button;

			Application.Init ();
			MainWindow win = new MainWindow ();
			// change the size of window
			win.SetDefaultSize (640, 480);
			// this will close application
			win.DeleteEvent += new DeleteEventHandler (Window_Delete);

			// use of VBox or HBox
			VBox global_vbox = new VBox();
			win.Add(global_vbox);
			name = new Entry();
			global_vbox.PackStart(name, false, false, 0);
			win.Add(name);

			VBox label_vbox = new VBox();
			global_vbox.Add (label_vbox);
			//Define here a label and put some text in it.
			Label my_Label = new Label();
			my_Label.Text = "Hello World!";
			label_vbox.PackStart(my_Label, false, false, 0);
			//Add the label to the form
			win.Add(my_Label);

			VBox button_vbox = new VBox();
			global_vbox.Add (button_vbox);
			my_Button = new Button("Ok!");
			my_Button.Clicked += OnButtonClicked;
			button_vbox.PackStart(my_Button, false, false, 0);
			win.Add(my_Button);
			// ShowAll is used to see all labels, buttons
			win.ShowAll();
			//win.Show ();
			Application.Run ();

		}

		public static void OnButtonClicked (object obj, EventArgs args)
		{
			//Label my_Label = obj as Gtk.Label;
			Console.WriteLine ("Button Clicked !");

		}

		static void Window_Delete (object obj, DeleteEventArgs args)
		{
			Application.Quit ();
			args.RetVal = true;
		}
	}
}

Fedora 32 : Can be better? part 013.

I would say that I always have a problem with accessing the knowledge base related to errors, errors and configurations in Linux and Fedora distro.

I think it would be very necessary to have as up-to-date documentation as possible in the Fedora distribution system and possibly a database based on questions and answers.

That makes me think of the pilots' manuals ... where all the possible problems are listed.

It would be useful for anyone and especially saves users' memory.

In the age of artificial intelligence, a flow chart for each possible problem generated by Xorg, Network, services that indicate the areas of interaction and possibly the basic checks that a user should make, possible settings depending on the problem or the desired change would be a fantastic map for both a beginner and an advanced user.

After doing some SELinux configurations, my browser did not want to access the internet.

Until the deactivation, the number of SELinux alerts increased dramatically.

The written SELinux policies were not exactly correct.

Obviously I tried to fix the problem by disabling SELinux.

The ping utility sent and received packets to the internet, my browser does not connect to it.

Sometimes a symbolic link or incorrect setting can block your internet access.

I think the problem was generated when disabling SELinux by restarting and shutting down a useful service.

ln -s /run/systemd/resolve/resolv.conf /etc/resolv.conf
Although attention was paid to the possibility of incorrect SELinux settings, a simple check and a restart of the systemd-resolved.service service solved the problem.
[root@desk mythcat]# systemctl status systemd-resolved.service 
● systemd-resolved.service - Network Name Resolution
     Loaded: loaded (/usr/lib/systemd/system/systemd-resolved.service; disabled

     Active: active (running) since Tue 2020-09-29 22:25:32 EEST; 8s ago

Now I've fixed it.

Fedora 32 : Can be better? part 012.

Pidgin is a chat program that lets you log in to accounts on multiple chat networks simultaneously. 
Pidgin can be installed on multiple operating systems and platforms. 
Pidgin is compatible with the following chat networks out of the box: I.R.C., Jabber/XMPP, Bonjour, Gadu-Gadu, IRC, Novell GroupWise Messenger, Lotus Sametime, SILC, SIMPLE, and Zephyr. Can it be better? 
The only problem a user in need of help may have been in the command line environment. Obviously, in this case, this application cannot be used. I would suggest building a terminal application like WeeChat dedicated to Fedora users and including I.R.C channels. 
Now, let's install this application.

Fedora 32 : Can be better? part 011.

Four days ago, the well-known Gnome environment came with a new release.

I guess it will be implemented in Fedora distro soon. 

Sunday, September 20, 2020

Fedora 32 : Can be better? part 010.

In this tutorial I will show you how can easy learn with a simple example to have a better Fedora distro with SELinux. 

SELinux uses a policy store to keep track of its loaded policy modules and related settings. 

You can see my active policy store name is MLS.

[root@desk mythcat]# sestatus | grep Loaded
Loaded policy name:             mls

I want to create policy in the most easy way to denny memory. 

I can use many way to do that or find it on SELinux. 

If you want to deny user domains applications to map a memory region as both executable and writable you can use deny_execmem

This is dangerous and the executable should be reported in bugzilla and is is enabled by default. 

You must turn on the deny_execmem boolean.

setsebool -P deny_execmem 1
Let's use it:
[root@desk mythcat]# setsebool -P deny_execmem 1
[root@desk mythcat]# ausearch -c 'Web Content' --raw | audit2allow -M my-WebContent
******************** IMPORTANT ***********************
To make this policy package active, execute:

semodule -i my-WebContent.pp

[root@desk mythcat]# semodule -X 300 -i my-WebContent.pp
Let's see if this SELinux is currently loaded:
[root@desk mythcat]# semodule -l | grep Web
my-WebContent

Fedora 32 : Can be better? part 008.

The Fedora development is not very active in the last programming language.
The main reason is the build new packages and put on the repository.
I think this can be improved with a good tool to solve all dependencies and link all into a good package.
Today I tested the new Python version 3.5.10 released on September 5th, 2020.
I download an unzip the archive and I use these commands to build this python version
[mythcat@desk ~]$ cd Python-3.5.10/
[mythcat@desk Python-3.5.10]$ ./configure
checking build system type... x86_64-pc-linux-gnu
checking host system type... x86_64-pc-linux-gnu
checking for python3.5... no
checking for python3... python3
checking for --enable-universalsdk... no
...
The next command is make:
[mythcat@desk Python-3.5.10]$ make
gcc -pthread -c -Wno-unused-result -Wsign-compare -DNDEBUG -g -fwrapv -O3 -Wall -Wstrict-prototypes
   -Werror=declaration-after-statement   -I. -I./Include    -DPy_BUILD_CORE -o Programs/python.o 
./Programs/python.c
...
# On Darwin, always use the python version of the script, the shell
# version doesn't use the compiler customizations that are provided
# in python (_osx_support.py).
if test `uname -s` = Darwin; then \
 cp python-config.py python-config; \
fi
Then I used make test.
[mythcat@desk Python-3.5.10]$ make test
running build
running build_ext
INFO: Can't locate Tcl/Tk libs and/or headers

Python build finished successfully!
...
For the last part I used this command:
[mythcat@desk Python-3.5.10]$ sudo make install

Fedora 32 : Can be better? part 009.

The Fedora distro will be better if the development team will come with useful, accurate, and up-to-date information. A very simple example is C and C ++ programming and more precisely how to build programs and packages. Let's take a simple example of creating interfaces with GTK. Let's take a simple example of creating interfaces with GTK that require knowledge of the GCC compiler. First I install gtk3-devel package:
dnf install gtk3-devel 
The Fedora team come with a group install with many feature.
#dnf -y groupinstall "Development Tools"
I test with these examples:
#include 

int main(int   argc,
     char *argv[])
{
  GtkWidget *window;
    
  gtk_init (&argc, &argv);
    
  window = gtk_window_new (GTK_WINDOW_TOPLEVEL);
  gtk_window_set_title (GTK_WINDOW (window), "Hello World");
  gtk_widget_show  (window);
    
  gtk_main ();
    
  return 0;
}
This create a simple window with Hello World title.
#include 

static void on_window_closed(GtkWidget * widget, gpointer data)
{
    gtk_main_quit();
}

int main(int argc, char * argv[])
{
    GtkWidget * window, * label;

    gtk_init(&argc, &argv);

    window = gtk_window_new(GTK_WINDOW_TOPLEVEL);

    g_signal_connect( window, "destroy", G_CALLBACK(on_window_closed), NULL);

    label = gtk_label_new("Hello, World!");

    gtk_container_add(GTK_CONTAINER(window), label);

    gtk_widget_show(label);
    gtk_widget_show(window);

    gtk_main();

    return 0;
}
This is the same example but you will see a label with te text Hello, World!.
The last example is more complex and involves the use of signals attached to the close button and the OK button.
The main window contains three labels with my name and an editbox in which you have to enter my nickname mythcat or something else.
#include 

const char *password = "mythcat";

// close the window application 
void closeApp(GtkWidget *widget, gpointer data)
{
    gtk_main_quit();
}

// show text when you click on button 
void button_clicked(GtkWidget *button, gpointer data)
{
    const char *password_text = gtk_entry_get_text(GTK_ENTRY((GtkWidget *)data));

    if(strcmp(password_text, password) == 0)
        printf("Access granted for user: \"%s\"\n",password);
    else
        printf("Access denied!\n");
 
}

int main( int argc, char *argv[])
{
    GtkWidget *window;
    GtkWidget *label1, *label2, *label3;
    GtkWidget *hbox;
    GtkWidget *vbox;
    GtkWidget *ok_button;
    GtkWidget *password_entry;

    gtk_init(&argc, &argv);

    window = gtk_window_new(GTK_WINDOW_TOPLEVEL);

    gtk_window_set_title(GTK_WINDOW(window), "Labels, password with one button and layout");
    gtk_window_set_position(GTK_WINDOW(window), GTK_WIN_POS_CENTER);
    gtk_window_set_default_size(GTK_WINDOW(window), 300, 200);

    g_signal_connect(G_OBJECT(window), "destroy", G_CALLBACK(closeApp), NULL);

    label1 = gtk_label_new("Catalin");
    label2 = gtk_label_new("George");
    label3 = gtk_label_new("Festila");

    password_entry = gtk_entry_new();
    gtk_entry_set_visibility(GTK_ENTRY(password_entry), FALSE);
    ok_button = gtk_button_new_with_label("OK");
    g_signal_connect(G_OBJECT(ok_button), "clicked", G_CALLBACK(button_clicked),password_entry);

    hbox = gtk_box_new(FALSE, 1);
    vbox = gtk_box_new(TRUE, 2);

    gtk_box_pack_start(GTK_BOX(vbox), label1, TRUE, FALSE, 5);
    gtk_box_pack_start(GTK_BOX(vbox), label2, TRUE, FALSE, 5);
    gtk_box_pack_start(GTK_BOX(hbox), vbox, FALSE, TRUE, 5);
    gtk_box_pack_start(GTK_BOX(hbox), label3, FALSE, FALSE, 5);
    gtk_box_pack_start(GTK_BOX(vbox), ok_button, FALSE, FALSE, 5);
    gtk_box_pack_start(GTK_BOX(hbox), password_entry, TRUE, FALSE, 5);
    gtk_container_add(GTK_CONTAINER(window), hbox);

    gtk_widget_show_all(window);

    gtk_main();

    return 0;
} 
The result can be seen in the following image:

I put the source code for the last example in a test.c file and compiled it like this:
[mythcat@desk ~]$ gcc test.c $(pkg-config --cflags --libs gtk+-3.0) -o test
[mythcat@desk ~]$ ./test
