lol if my package is a quality package , tested , works fine and complies with the guidelines , who cares on what it is packaged on ?

You can but it's not advised by Fedora Devs. I can't tell about Arch because I don't use it.

Because usually the lib versions are borked. Fedora has point releases. So if, let's say, F28 does not yet have the a specific lib of version "x" and instead has "y", things might go a bit haywire.

yo guys who can help me with sound problem :?

Sure. What's the problem?

Seems like it's about pulse audio, i don't have sound, tried to reinstall n stuff. if i type pulseaudio here what i get: E: [pulseaudio] pid.c: Daemon already running. E: [pulseaudio] main.c: pa_pid_file_create() failed.

tried to add some stuff to alsa.conf aswell

Uhm. Weird. But yeah, reinstalling seldom solves anything.

What desktop are you using? Are you sure is not an issue in your user only?

i tried with livecd

and it was fine

even took the files from it but it didn't help

So the hardware is fine, and in theory you have the drivers.

You need to install rpmfusion-nonfree-appstream-data

do you mean this? https://rpmfusion.org/Configuration

then look in gnome-software—>addons—> drivers

Where is "addons" in gnome-software?

Where is "addons" in gnome-software?

In tha package repo?

In tha package repo?

No, in the program.

Where is "addons" in gnome-software?

Maybe extensions? I vaguely remember a tab named like that, but I don't use Gnome so I can't tell exactly.

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

Me nods.

Destroy your setups. Many many times in your life. Play around with them, break them, get a feeling for why something breaks when it does, learn to fix it, etc. - you won't understand complex systems considering them untouchable.

And no, customizing the login manager is something about personal customization and should by all means be something the user wants to do with their Linux computer.

What's next? "Don't change to dark theme! It breaks things!"?

I'd never recommend something that will break a setup?

I break things. For science.

If you want, it's okay

I will support anyone in this chat who wants to customize their login manager appearance by the way, if people here won't want to help feel free to PM me.

What's next? "Don't change to dark theme! It breaks things!"?

If a dark theme breaks things, I wouldn't recommend it either

I wouldn't recommend anything to someone that I know breaks their computer.

I still recommend to customize and see where bugs in the software are, yes.

As long as I consider them competent enough to run a console IRC client to ask me how to fix their X not starting up at all, yes.

I won't consider users dumb. That's what Microsoft does.

If you break your SDDM setup while apllying a different SDDM theme, you clearly do something wrong. That's supported in SDDM since years and doesn't cause much problems.

And no, customizing the login manager is something about personal customization and should by all means be something the user wants to do with their Linux computer.

However, if a user wants the maximum stability and not end up with a broken computer just because butterflies on the login manager were more important than system stability...

However updates may render themes incompatible. Worse so for gdm.

body know how install peek in fedora 28?

I had found and don't nothing

i'll bet you'll come back to arch ,,,, because AUR!

You do realise that this is a Fedora group, yes?

Unsolicited advertising is against the rules, @abhishek_0

You do realise that this is a Fedora group, yes?

Out of curiosity: it's advertising even if different distributions aren't exactly concurrent or profit orientated? Most users use different distributions anyways. Shouldn't we at least tolerate love for other distributions?

Well, this is still a group for Fedora.. So you'll excuse us that we try to focus on said distro :P

The advertising warn was for his linking to another group

Hello! I put my laptop in "hibernate" last night and all I get now when I attempt to boot back up is "error: unknown filesystem" in GRUB rescue mode

Does anybody know how I can get back into Fedora?

Hello! I put my laptop in "hibernate" last night and all I get now when I attempt to boot back up is "error: unknown filesystem" in GRUB rescue mode

Are you dual-booting with Windows?

No. This was a fresh install in a laptop that previously ran Windows, however

did you remove all Windows system's reserved partitions though?

AFAIK, yes. I used gparted to delete everything on sda1

AFAIK, yes. I used gparted to delete everything on sda1

as far as I remember, these problems had to do with the bios looking for a windows partition or something. I might be wrong.

I might just reinstall completely since it was a fairly fresh installation and I didn't have many files on it

Why people is still doing that? Just turn it off if you are not using it.

This.

I was just curious what it would do. Having said that, there are many reasons why somebody would not want to completely shut down all running programs when they are done for the night.

what's wrong with people wanting to keep their work open while their computer is off?

On the devel mailing list I saw a kind of poll on people having issues on their hardware, Dells were the only ones without issues when it comes to suspending and hibernation.

wait that sounds weird

what's wrong with people wanting to keep their work open while their computer is off?

Hibernation != Turning off. What are you talking about?

Funny enough, mine is a Dell Inspiron laptop

yeah, that was stupid

hey guys! I have some warnings when I wanna update my system. What I can do to fix that? Thank you. https://paste.fedoraproject.org/paste/lKygQJ6Mgy3XZpvw9BlWEQ

you have no new updates, probably

yeah, that was stupid

Anyways, I don't think you are stupid. I learned hibernation or suspention is not always reliable as Turning on and off again. Even when having an SSD, it is preferable to just turn off the laptop and on againg when needed.

I see then

gotta do some research on that later

Hahaha it is easy to find that kind of post like: "My system does not boot anymore after suspending" "My system does not recover accordinly after hibernation, I have to do a hard poweroff" and like.

I'm not saying it never works.

I had some of those problems myself, and are a pain in the ass to troubleshoot them, I'd rather shut down completely now

ok thank you =)

what's wrong with people wanting to keep their work open while their computer is off?

Mainly that hibernation is a really fickle beast and that users dont want to accept that linux cant test on every single system on the world what the manufacturers did wrong this time

Thinking on purchasing a ThinkCentre Edge 72. Any thoughts about it on linux/fedora?

My main concern is the Intel HD Graphics 2500, is it well supported?

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

Well, they should make better login screens then. The default ones are quite dull when not outright ugly.

And no, customizing the login manager is something about personal customization and should by all means be something the user wants to do with their Linux computer.

I agree. I should have written the process, so I knew for the next time. But changing the login screen in KDE is no rocket science, it's just as simple as installing a QT theme or a set of icons. Actually I have another theme installed from Store and works fine.

Intel is always well supported, it's probably the brand that gets better support in Linux.

It's not meant to. SDDM configuration, GUI configuration in Settings has a button to install themes.
