Today I'll probably be posting a bit more from the #OpenAlt conference. If you're not interested in it, use that great feature of Mastodon and mute me for the weekend. I'll be giving two talks at OpenAlt: Fedora Asahi Remix: Linux on Apple Silicon Fediverse: Mastodon and Others
I'll be happy to meet you at the #Fedora booth or at my talks. If you cannot come, you can watch the talks online (they're in Czech though): openalt.cz/2023/program/
I letos nás najdete na #OpenAlt. Jako již tradičně budeme mít #Fedora stánek a můžete si taky poslechnout přednášky @sesivany o Fedoře na Apple Siliconu a @lzap o instalaci Fedory z obrazu disku pomocí projektu #Forester.
Dnes a zítra nás najdete na #LinuxDays. Zastavte se na kus řeči, vzít si nějaký #Fedora swag nebo se podívat, jak Fedora běží na Macbooku s procesorem od Applu. #RedHat #Linux
Zajímá vás, jak běží #Fedora a #Linux obecně na počítačích s procesory od Applu? Zastavte se tento víkend na našem stánku na @linuxdays. Budeme tam mít Macbook Pro s Fedora Asahi Remixem. #LinuxDays
Thanks! (Can I claim a third pack by reporting a bug my patch introduced? :D)
I think Month of LibreOffice & the sticker packs are a great way to get more people involved long-term - after all the first patch/translation/bug report is often the most cumbersome one due to all the setup overhead.
I always try to lower the barriers I bump into along the way, eg. submitted this patch to #fedora to include all build debs ootb: src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/lib…
Fedora Linux 38 will release on Tuesday, April 18!
We've hit the early target dates for our beta and stable releases, so props to the Fedora community. And thanks to all who helped with testing! #Fedora #Linux
Here’s your weekly Fedora report. Read what happened this week and what’s coming up. Your contributions are welcome (see the end of the post)! Fedora Linux 38 will be released on Tuesday — the early target date! I have weekly office hours most Wednes…
Found this on other account. Please boost for reach: Fedora Linux is focusing on accessibility for the next five years. I'd love to see people with disabilities, very much including blind people, comment on this. If you're interested in Linux, or free and open source software, your voices are valuable. I hope Fedora finds our voices valuable too.
Hello. Yes, sometimes, setting things up is a challenge, however, things are improving. The QT environment variables are definitely not needed for QT 6, and likely 5. Same can be said about GTK_MODULES, which are not needed at least from GTK 3.
Just a note for people hesitating to try #DNF5 - I have been trying it for more than half a year. And in the past few months, I have not found any issues. So I use it as a default. And it is much faster. DNF5 is present in #Fedora 38, and for older Fedoras, there is #Copr repository fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes…
If you're interested in talking or collaborating with contributors to the Fedora Project, this is how you can join the conversation!
We have @matrix channels bridged to IRC for real time chat. We have the Fedora Discussion forum for long form conversations.
Both can be accessed with a Fedora account you can create, but Matrix is also available from other accounts since it is federated. #Fedora #Matrix #Discourse
I am profiling #GNOME Shell (MASSIVE thanks to #fedora enabling frame pointers for all packages in 38 making this possible) and noticed clock_gettime() taking up a huge chunk. Turns out I hit bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.c…: many #AMD laptops are forced to use a very slow clock source (HPET instead of TSC). #Lenovo fixed it with a BIOS update for some laptops but not mine. Kernel param tsc=reliable results in big speedups (up to 30% in browser benchmarks) but unsure if it impacts stability :/
@pvagner Jsem také uživatelem Woken od jejich vzniku nad M$ DOS, který jsem používal též 🫡. Nyní je ale používám jen v práci jako poučený uživatel 😊, tam to bohužel nejde jinak 😕. Ale většinou jako terminál 😎 a pak využití místních Office🙄 O #powershell proto slyším poprvé 😳, nevím, jestli mi k něčemu bude 🤔. No prostě #lama 😁. Koncem 90. let jsem chtěl použít #RedHat, ale nerozběhl jsem tehdy jejich X Window 😬 Na hracím notebooku mám nově #fedora😜
Unfiltered Flathub is approved to be provided as a third party repo you can enable for Fedora 38! In the next release, if you enable Flathub as a third party repo, you will get everything on Flathub and not just the Fedora Flatpaks. #Fedora #Flatpak #Linux
Super interesting blog post from Allan Day going through the results of the GNOME user survey. Glad to see Fedora Workstation being so well represented. blogs.gnome.org/aday/2023/01/1… #gnome #fedora #linux
I know it is not going to resonate much with people in English speaking countries, but this has been a major issue for people who use alphabets with special characters (my native Czech included).
For years #PDF viewers on #Linux such as #Evince couldn't save characters outside the basic charsets in PDF forms. It turned out to be a complex problem and multi-year effort, but it's finally done and you can use unicode in PDF forms. First available in #Fedora 37 where we've already backported it.
You're invited to talk on Matrix. If you don't already have a client this link will help you pick one, and join the conversation. If you already have one, this link will help you join the conversation
I’m not going to use bloody bugzilla, so if anyone from Mozilla sees this, your enterprise flow for adding certificate authorities (CAs) to Firefox on Linux fails on Fedora Silverblue.
Since Fedora Silverblue is seen as the possible future of Fedora/Red Hat, you folks might want to talk to the Fedora folks about it and come up with a solution.
In Firefox version 64+, you can add your custom certificate authorities to Firefox using an enterprise policy file and by copying your certificates to /usr/lib/mozilla/certificates or /usr64/lib/mo...
The only dealbreaker is that the container does not receive kernel uevents, i.e. it does not see any kind of hw change. It already uses --network=host and bind-mounts /dev.This is also broken in standard #toolbx. Does anybody know a trick to get that?
@signalapp does not support #linux on #aarch64 #arm, however, there is more than a project to support that unofficially, one of them is via #flatpak, which can be used with almost any linux distros, you can follow the link elagost.com/flatpak/ I am using it on #fedora @Raspberry_Pi
It's wild that I'm still the #3 contributor to the Anaconda OS installer used by #Fedora, #RHEL, and countless other #Linux distributions, at least according to Github stats. Love how the #OpenSource stuff you worked on can live on, and you can see it grow after you leave it behind.
Mouse cursor was totally wonky after this Saturday's #Fedora 37 upgrade. Some package bisecting led me to #GTK 3 apparently a discontinued cursor theme, and me having ancient settings in dconf. #regression
Tak už máme oznámení o vydání #Fedora 37 venku i my. Pokud si chcete všechny informace přečíst pěkně pohromadě a v češtině, miřte sem: mojefedora.cz/vysla-fedora-37/
Today I’m excited to share the results of the hard work of thousands of Fedora Project contributors: the Fedora Linux 37 release is here! Let’s see what the latest release brings you.
Dnes se koná pražská #Fedora 37 (pre)release party. Dojděte s námi oslavit nové vydání a podívat se, jak používá Národní technická knihovna Fedoru na veřejných počítačích. mojefedora.cz/fedora-37-prerel…
