I have finally found out the reason why logind is complaining, thanks to you. Dec 11 18:45:05 localhost.HPNotebook systemd-logind[1222]: Failed to open swap file /var/swap/fedora.swap to determine on-disk offset: Permission denied Dec 11 18:45:05 localhost.HPNotebook systemd-logind[1222]: Sent message type=method_return sender=n/a destination=:1.57 path=n/a interface=n/a member=n/a cookie=130 reply_cookie=49 signature=s error-name=n/a error-message=n/a Dec 11 18:45:05 localhost.HPNotebook systemd-logind[1222]: Got message type=method_call sender=:1.57 destination=org.freedesktop.login1 path=/org/freedesktop/login1 interface=org.freedesktop.login1.Manager member=CanHybridSleep cookie=50 reply_cookie=0 signature=n/a error-name=n/a error-message=n/a Dec 11 18:45:05 localhost.HPNotebook systemd-logind[1222]: Sleep mode "disk" is supported by the kernel.

IIRC, you were the one who suggested I mount in that directory. Not blaming you, but the question is what do I do now ? The bug that you have linked to is about /home not /var.

So I'm > betting this is not what you want. Yes, I have removed the nodatacow option from my mount in fstab as it clearly had no effect. I am now using the +C attribute. -- Regards, Sreyan Chakravarty _______________________________________________ users mailing list -- users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to users-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
