- Various issues with Fedora 40 KDE spin
Hi all,
Edit: I use the KDE spin of Fedora 40 (updated after I posted this) and have a Windows 10 partition. However, I am not able to boot into Windows as it doesn't show up in GRUB.
I've been encountering some frustrating issues with my Fedora Linux installation and I'm hoping someone here might be able to offer some guidance or solutions. I'm gonna post them all in this thread - please tell me if I should break each issue into individual
-
Time Setting: I've noticed that my system time doesn't seem to be setting correctly, even when I have automatic time synchronization enabled. The time in my BIOS is correct. Even when I try to set the time manually, it reverts back to the wrong settings.
-
Persistent Wi-Fi Password Prompts: Despite having saved my Wi-Fi password in the connection settings within KDE, I'm constantly being asked to re-enter it every time I connect. It's a bit of a hassle, My credentials are saved.
-
Browser Rendering Issues: When using both Chrome and Firefox on Fedora, I've noticed that certain websites, like Arduino.cc, don't load images or schematics properly. For example, when I try to access https://docs.arduino.cc/built-in-examples/basics/Blink/ the images fail to load. Strangely, I don't encounter this problem when using the same browsers on my Windows desktop. I have also tried to start Firefox in "fail safe" mode without addons enable but it does not make solve the issue.
-
Dual Boot Trouble: During the installation process, I managed to break my dual boot to Windows, which didn't happen when I initially tried out Linux Mint. The Linux Mint installer automatically managed to make my system dual boot through GRUB. However, I probably messed up in the Fedora installation process, and now I don't know how to fix it.
-
Driver Discovery: Despite enabling RPM Fusion for the Nvidia Driver, I cannot find the driver in the Discover app. Is there a step I might be missing, or a different approach I should take to locate and install the Nvidia driver?
My hwinfo, using hwinfo --short:, removed keyboard, mouse etc.

I've been using Arch as a daily driver for years and love it's customization level, then I realized I just want an OS that works. I need tips, advice, or even warnings before moving.
- A meta-package to prevent out-of-sync mesa-freeworld
Maybe some of you already had the problem: mesa-freeworld from RPM-Fusion can be out of sync with the standard mesa packages. Once this led to a black screen after reboot for me.
So, I decided to create a metapackage which pins the versions of all mesa dependencies to be compatible with mesa-freeworld. I published a Copr Repo with it, in case others think it is useful.
- Problem simulating Fedora Sway (SPIN on VirtualBox

Does anyone have any tips on how to proceed in this case?
Any tip is welcome.
- Fedora boot error after changing btrfs root subvolume name
Title says it all. I changed my btrfs subvol names so I could use timeshift to manage my snapshots, after regenerating the initramfs and editing grub to point to the new subvol names all was fine however after I got a kernel upgrade recently, the latest grub entry for the kernel specifies the old subvol name, resulting in a failed boot. I dont know grub well enough to know what options to add to /etc/default/grub, or even if thats where I need to add it. After editing the entry manually it boots perfectly fine so theres my question. Is there a grub config option to specify the name for a subvolume to boot? I'd rather not manually edit grub.cfg every time theres a kernel update lol.

Does Silverblue being immutable has an effect on security, or is it more about stability and reliability?

I really enjoy the "This Week in" style of weekly reports on all the work that is being done, so I'm looking forwards to sharing it like that! > > I'm also pushing to get this officially in the project (for more teams to do this weekly/monthly report) so we can actually create a project-wide newsletter, something at least akin to a This Week in Fedora, and I'd really appreciate your feedback.
- .local resolution not working on fedora minimal install
I can't resolve (ping, ssh) any computer on my network from a newly installed minimal Gnome Desktop F39 on a laptop; since it's minimal, it's possible something's missing from the installation.
trying from the laptop gives:
$ ping server.local ping: server.local: Temporary failure in name resolution
pinging .box static DNS entries as well as IP addresses works. all other computers can resolve each other and the new laptop (1 debian, 1 fedora, 1 macOS), some have static, some dynamic IPs. they all get the DNS IP of my pi-hole, which resolves everything fine. resolve.conf and all other relevant files are stock. avahi and systemd-resolve are running and report no issues. same behaviour with WiFi and LAN.
I could switch to static IPs and assign e.g. .box suffixes all around via local DNS but I don't want to do that, this setup is/was working on every other PC.
any ideas what I'm missing?
edit: just booted off of a live USB with F39, resolves server.local just fine. so I'm missing something in my installation, right?
edit II: installed it (minimal) on another laptop, same deal - no .local resolution.

So happy to announce that finally, Swayora reached a usable state. Keep in mind, that I was working on the installer more than the sway configuration itself. So, keep checking it out for updates 😉 https://gitlab.com/DeaDSouL/swayora

I'm on fedora Silverblue and just saw that firefox is still on 118 whereas 120 is about to be released.

You may encounter that your preinstalled Firefox, or the Fedora Flatpak one (no fix currently afaik), can’t play videos. This is due to missing nonfree codecs, that the Fedora Project would need to pay an enormous amount of money for, thus they can’t possibly preinstall it. There is rpmfusion [rpmfu...
- Issue with Dark Style on 39 (Workstation Prerelease, Gnome 45.rc)
Hey, everyone! I'm what you might call an "intermediate user" I guess, and I usually manage to track down problem on my own, but here goes...
I'm using the Fedora Workstation 39 Beta 1.1, Just installed it and am up and running, Everything is working well, but I have a weird issue in that most (but not all) GTK4 apps are ignoring my Dark Style settings. Nautilus is light, for instance, but Console is not. The Wallpaper follows the light/dark setting, and once I tweaked it, so do the GTK3 apps.
I'm not sure how to provide more info. I have tried
gtk-application-prefer-dark-theme=1
in~/.config/gtk-4.0/settings.ini
which seems to do nothing, I can't find a dbus entry, and I haven't really installed much, other than the adw-gtk3 theme, Gnome Console, and some flatpaks.Any ideas?
ETA: TUrns out I'm not the only one; it may be a problem with the update: https://discussion.fedoraproject.org/t/dark-mode-broke-after-last-update-on-fedora-39/89965
Part of the problem with playing with a beta, I guess...
- [Noob question] Why journald isn't auto completing my user .service?
Hello!, so i have 2 services in my
.config/systemd/user
one of them is namedflatpak-update.service
, and the otherfind-and-delete.service
. When i writejournalctl --user-unit flatpak
it autocomplete like any other command in bash, but if i try the same withjournalctl --user-unit find
it don't autocomplete, as the service didn't exist, but if i typejournalctl --user-unit find-and-delete.service
i list the service logs as normal, why it isn't autocompleting the name?, thank for any answer or suggestion - Wordpress with NGINX on Fedora Server (questions about SELinux)
Why should we install wordpress using
dnf install wordpress
rather than just downloading the files? is it because those PHP file won't work due to SELinux, or is it something else?Also, if I am importing NGINX config files and database backups (made using
msqldump
) from another server, do I have to do something with them before they can work?Another thing that I have seen is that in the nginx.conf file in Fedora, the user is set to nginx, while on other operating systems it is set to www-data by default. Why is that?
I am asking this because I want to migrate from a Debian server to a Fedora Server (preferably on ARM).

- Is it possible to run the DKMS Nvidia driver with nvcc and the CUDA toolkit?
I need CUDA on Workstation for an offline open source AI training tool. Running the Nvidia bin blob is trash with how often fedora updates the kernel. The automated kernel module build is awesome, but now I need CUDA and the documentation is all over the place and outdated. I know it is because it is shitvidia. AMD doesn't make competitive laptop hardware with 16GB of GPU memory or more and nothing with full CUDA compatibility with HIPS yet. I'm disabled where a laptop is the only option for ergonomics. Does anyone here know a proven path for sustainable CUDA on Fedora?
