And thats why i will not recommend changing the design of plymouth, login managers and co.

It wasn't Plymouth, it was SDDM. Normally it works fine, and @hellbanger (I think) is using that theme without problems. But for some reason it died in my laptop. Now I have another one, quite nice as well, and works as expected.

There is a rescue mode option every time you boot up. You can login with commnd line then change the file

Well, I tried booting from the rescue option and couldn't do anything, so I used the live USB that was the fastest way.

9 more days (hopefully) for the F29 release.

I'm really really waiting for the GNOME 3.30 release.

XD

"login manager"

Just 9 days? Wow! Time passes quickly!

Hope the upgrades aren't too killing on my connection ?

"login manager"

Okay, yeah.

But I have changing themes since KDE4 & KDM

And yes, sometimes a theme doesn't work, but usually it happened to me when they weren't compatible or too old. Normally the "Get new stuff" thing will rule those out.

BTW Do you intstall themes through kde settings? I often get errors while downloading new themes.

Yeah, I used to get errors as well, but right now is working fine for me.

Are all fedora blockers cleared yet?

I am waiting for silverblue

Already updated to F29 beta on my laptop. Works fine.

I agree 100% on this.

Whether it is the official compiled version or the rpmfusion version of Telegram Desktop 1.4.3, when you click on the image to enter the full screen state, the desktop system's taskbar will still be displayed at the front end, but not like the 1.3.x version, behind the image.

Btw @xvitaly Is it possible to add more languages to telegram?

I have not a github ID....

No. Telegram Deskop automatically fetch available language files on it's first launch from Telegram Cloud.

Just register. It's free.

Oh I was about to fork their repo and add few languages that I know. Anyways thanks.

If you want to add more languages, you should contact @preston (author of Telegram Desktop) to get invite to Transifex: https://www.transifex.com/telegram/telegram-desktop/

Bengali?

Yup

Windows kernel is hybrid? Really? Well, indeed Windows error messages are most unhelpful but I think that's on purpose. You're not suppose to understand anything.

Nvm. Will do it next week. Thanks @xvitaly

Windows kernel is hybrid since windows NT IIRC

Ah. Okay.

how to cleanup unnecessary and orphan packages

sudo dnf autoremove

what about dnf clean packages

how to cleanup unnecessary and orphan packages

sudo dnf upgrade --best --allowerasing --refresh sudo dnf autoremove sudo dnf distro-sync

what about dnf clean packages

That cleans the package cache

Not the actual packages.,

sudo dnf upgrade --best --allowerasing --refresh sudo dnf autoremove sudo dnf distro-sync

this will remove the packages as well?

this will remove the packages as well?

upgrade --best will enforce upgrading to the very last of the best packages and tell you if that would remove any packages.

the thing is I installed few packages to build some tools, I installed the tools and now I want to remove those packages needed only for building

autoremove will then look for packages not needed anymore

and distro-sync will sync packages with the very last upstream, and remove all packages without repo sources.

Oh alright then

I will try this one thanks :)

is not there a graphical option to install the video card's proprietary drivers? I only found this guide from rpmfusion -> https://rpmfusion.org/Howto/NVIDIA

AFAIK, no, there isn't. You install them using DNF. It might work with Dnfdragora. But if you mean a separated app specific to install drivers, no, I'm not aware of that.

Why would you need it however? Just copypaste the proper given command to the terminal.

You can very very likely use the one for the newest gpus, the other ones are downright ancient.

what a pity .. it almost makes me angry to see that ubuntu has these drivers installed by gui

I can very well use the terminal, but for someone who does not understand it, it frightens ?

Those shouldnt use the nvidia driver then, because nvidia is known to have huge problems every so often on new kernels because nvidia isnt fast or caring really about supporting newer linux kernels.

what a pity .. it almost makes me angry to see that ubuntu has these drivers installed by gui

Dnfdragora, Discover and Software are all GUI programs and will offer the drivers. What a dedicated app for?

If you have nov*deo and want to use it for 3d under fedora (that is, not running noveau) you'll likely be better off with a distro that is way more "lts".

Besides, those dedicated apps from Ubuntu never worked for me. Drivers, codecs, etc., they would keep offering to install the missing stuff without doing effectively anything-

"Its"? Frankly Tobias, this is not useful.

Also ontop, what is your gpu? Nouveau has experimental reclocking support for lots of modern gpus from nivida, making the installation of blobs fully uneeded!

"Its"? Frankly Tobias, this is not useful.

Long Term Support. Hugely outdated and unmaintained packages (for most lts distros that arent commercial) but less often changing kernels.

ERROR: S client not available

I think what he wants a dedicated app. That's his complain. Not exactly what kind of video drivers to install.

Ah, it's an L

I think what he wants a dedicated app. That's his complain. Not exactly what kind of video drivers to install.

Yeah, but a dedicated app might wrongly suggest support and stability testing against these.

Write properly. I thought it was an i

And fedora definitely doesnt test, recommend or even support the external drivers.

Write properly. I thought it was an i

Use a proper font that can distinguish I l L i :P

hahaha

what

Yeah, but a dedicated app might wrongly suggest support and stability testing against these.

Personally I never found Ubuntu stuff very helpful. It never worked for me. I don't see any reason not to use the GUI stuff that already exists like Dnfdragora or Discover.

You can easily install drivers from there.

Not the default Telegram Linux for sure. Sans Serif often suffer of that issue.

Personally I never found Ubuntu stuff very helpful. It never worked for me. I don't see any reason not to use the GUI stuff that already exists like Dnfdragora or Discover.

Ubuntu has a dedicated gui that lists all devices and offers to install their blobs. But fedora at most offers dragora to show the nvidia package.

Besides it's initials so it should be LTS, all capitals.

But as said, most beginners shouldnt tweak the drivers in their system anyway, because of hoe much can go wrong and them needing to be able to recover from an update.

I know

But is such a common term most in IT should ve able to distinguish it.

How could I? I read it as an i

If you don't write properly, it's not my fault if it gets confusing.

But as said, most beginners shouldnt tweak the drivers in their system anyway, because of hoe much can go wrong and them needing to be able to recover from an update.

Yes, of course, tweaking is out of question. But I think he means that little app that pops up in Ubuntu saying "It seems that are some drivers missing, would you like to install them?" followed by a list of the drivers that are missing. It's similar to what Ubuntu does with Codecs.

I understand that it can be nice for an absolute noob, but I don't see it as a must. It's possible to do the same from any of the GUI apps provided to install stuff in Fedora.

There is, but again that'd suggest support for these.

Ontop of such an app requiring rpmfusion.

So two reasons it'd not make the cut.

And on top of that, it might not work at all. It never worked for me in Ubuntu, no matter what.

For someone not into that tell them to get an amd instead really. The open source drivers are top notch and come packaged out of the box.

You need to do nothing to get full gpu acceleration, at all.

If they have a desktop and want to run fedora they can plan ahead.

That's very German

Planning?

But normal people have computers and install stuff without much thinking

Planning?

Yeah. Planning ahead.
