The #Fedora 40 Release Party just ended and it was great as usual to connect with familiar faces and get updates on current and upcoming things for the project. Fedora is alive and well with a thriving global community!
Whoops! Flathub wasn't enabled in our UM40 builds from yesterday!
New images have since been pushed, and this should be fixed in any new installs. If you're still having this issue, you can try this to fix it sudo dnf install ultramarine-repos-extras
If the issue persists, let us know in one of our chats, or file an issue
A virtual social starts in less than an hour if you're in the Matrix room (8:30am EDT, 12:30pm UTC). You can still register to join the chat. https://pretix.eu/fedora/f40-party/
Opening remarks start at 9am EDT (1pm UTC), which you can watch with just the stream on YouTube - no chat because that's what we're using Matrix for. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NxMzWuHhyAY
New account, migrated from old. I guess I should do an #introduction post for the #fediverse.
Hello! I'm a father, husband, and DevOps Engineer by trade. I build award-winning custom motorcycles in my down time.
I've had the fortune of messing with tech since the TRS-80. My dad helped successfully steer us clear of Microsoft product offerings my whole life. From Deskmate > GeoWorks > OS/2. Then from there, Linux > BeOS > MacOS > Linux. I really enjoy #elementaryos and #fedora.
I'm running for the EPEL Steering Committee. If I've ever helped you with EPEL, or you've enjoyed my conference presentations about EPEL, please consider voting for me.
This release party we will be joined by our downstream friends from @UniversalBlue and @ultramarine! Contributors from each will be sharing updates from their projects. Happy to have them here as we try to be intentional with our downstreams. :)
We're excited to hear about the community updates that will be presented at the Fedora 40 Release Party. 😬 We'll learn about the Mentored Projects initiative, the git forge investigation, EPEL 10, and Week of Diversity!
Audio on #Linux was long the butt of many joke. My goodness, has #pipewire delivered. I love how well my A/V IO works and behaves out of box on #Fedora these days.
sudo dnf up
then sudo dnf system-upgrade download releasever=40
(you can also do 39 if you'd prefer)
then finally sudo dnf system-upgrade reboot
then wait and you're done!
Installed #Waydroid on my #Fedora Linux PC today. Took a while until I understood how to add some ARM emulation support. Followed instructions for adding Google PlayStore, hooked up the Xbox 360 controller and fired up #AmongUs where the little one immediately started to show me the ropes.
