Fedora Linux

So I have a bequiet keyboard with lights. When I open up the web-based settings it says following:

Hey everyone, I’m running into a weird problem with Fedora Workstation. Basically whenever my computer starts up, GRUB freezes (sometimes with the menu displaying, sometimes without it). It works fine when, while starting up, I go into the select bootloader menu (for me by pressing F9), select Fedora, and then GRUB works great. I don’t have another OS installed, but I think the windows bootloader is still on the device, though Fedora and GRUB are the default bootloader. I do have secure boot on if that changes anything. Any advice on how to fix?

On the face of it, my old work laptop should be perfect for Linux. It’s Intel based, drivers are very mature, it has a hefty CPU, 16 GB RAM and a zippy SSD. It was a beast in its day, and it should be able to re-live its glory days as a Fedora box.

I have installed CUDA Toolkit, which comes with its own Nvidia drivers etc. However, since the Nvidia drivers and tools from rpmfusion-nonfree-updates are slightly newer, Fedora tries to install those instead, which fails due to conflicts.

How does hardware video acceleration work on ARM? I would like to install Fedora on a Raspberry Pi, but first I would like to make sure I can take advantage of hardware video acceleration. Most likely ARM GPUs don’t support VAAPI and I don’t think there are tools equivalent to vainfo and intel_gpu_top. I’m looking for someone who can provide me with information on this topic 🙂 Thanks

So keyboard works fine and all at first. When i flip the laptop to draw fedora shows the keyboard disabled icon. But when i flip the keyboard back it fedora doesnt turn on the keyboard. Only when i suspend/close lid, does the keyboard start working again..

EDIT: I'm rephrasing some sentences Edit2: I gave up.

Ok, first off KDE Connect is a killer app. It's so slick and convenient. Love it.

I’ve toyed around with Fedora a couple times in the past but never daily drove it. Pretty much a Debian guy (gnome desktop, headless servers and raspbian) but I had to scratch that immutable itch.

I'm getting a noticeable delay. It used to only happen when I opened something old I rarely accessed, but now it happens in most Gnome apps. They are fast once they load. I don't know if there is something happening with encryption or compression, or if it is my drive's wear. I'm not really sure how to diagnose this one in a meaningful way. On Workstation 42 mostly defaults and from an upgrade path since 36 on this machine IIRC.

For instance I want to install neovim-0.11.0-1.fc42 which is currently labeled testing > stable on the top right.

First I tried installing CUDA for blender cycles renderer. That broke my driver installation.

TLDR: I want to be able to set specific window sizes and positions of the current window with hotkeys, as well as focus on specific apps with hotkeys, but I'm overwhelmed.

I need MySql Workbench on my daily driver OS, which is Fedora 41. But I can't seem to find a way to install it.

Had some fairly bad glitches on the previous version with Wayland, and the 570 drivers are supposed to fix them. Is anyone already rocking 570 from rpm fusion, or is it still in beta?

Hey all,

I am currently using this travel router as a way for me to connect numerous devices (Android TV, Work Laptop, etc.) back to my home network so I can access my home server running Jellyfin/NAS/etc. while traveling.

I've just upgraded to Fedora Workstation 42 and am now unable to activate any GNOME extensions. The little switches in the GUI do not respond. It's the same for all extensions. The Extensions and Extensions Manager apps are both installed as flatpaks - do I need to adjust their permissions in Flatseal? Is the problem due to something else? Thanks!

Fedora 40 running on Dell laptop with KDE spin has done it twice on separate occasions: after rebooting for updates it just hangs after applying them. Is this something known? I've looked on google but could find only similar queries in other places with no answers or "just hard reset it" answers. I've been running Fedora for over a decade now and haven't seen such behaviour until recent releases. Some config drift? something else?

I'm running Fedora 41 KDE and had what appeared to be an issue with the system not loading to desktop from the GUI login screen. I am getting a black screen with just the cursor and nothing else. I can get a terminal window going on TTY3-6 to reboot and doing so would load into the desktop pretty much instantly.

Hello all, can anyone help me figure out what permissions/ownership settings and/or configuration changes I need to make to fix logrotate.service on my Fedora 41 host?

I've been trying for days and have been impossible.

Does it make sense to snapshot the home subvolume? I wonder if taking snapshots of the home subvolume is a huge waste of disk space, since all the important files are already backed up through different and more secure methods. How is your setup? Open survey ✌🏻

Hi.

Hi! I'm a flutter developer and I've recently switched from Ubuntu to Bluefin (based on Fedora Silverblue) I was trying to install flutter and all the dependencies it asks for when running flutter doctor and while for clang++, cmake and ninja I have been able to install them with Homebrew (brew install llvm cmake ninja) and the warning went away, flutter seems not to detect GTK 3.0 development libraries when installed through homebrew (brew install gtk+3)

I need to use a Windows VM to do a few things - I'm on Fedora and my Xbox controller has been glitching out a lot and I need to try updating the firmware. Also, I got a new RGB keyboard and I'm not able to use the proprietary software using Wine and OpenRGB does not support my keyboard (Cosmic Byte GK34 Firefly).

Does anyone else experience "avalanche" of app crashes on each thunderbolt dock unplug with Fedora 41 KDE edition?
