There’s a long-standing bug in Fedora (also in Fedora 40), where the sign-in screen is displayed at the wrong resolution (it doesn’t use the settings you have set in the Settings app).

So, for example, if you have 4K@2x set in your settings for your monitor, the sign-in screen will still display at a tiny 4K@1x.

To fix, download an app called GDM Settings from the Software app and press Display → Apply current display settings → Apply.

I just installed COSMIC Desktop on Fedora 40. It works smoothly and is very fast. All apps open instantly with no glitches or hangs, and everything functions perfectly. Well Done, COSMIC team.

Ostatnio sporo bawię się 🙂 (dzięki Mordeczki za polecenie tego distro). Czy istnieje jakaś możliwość synchronizacji kalendarza z konta iCloud z kalendarzem systemowym w Fedorze? Niestety nie można dodać konta iCloud 😟 Jakieś Google czy inne Microsofty spoko, ale nie iCloud,

" beta is fastest operating system I've tested - and it's full of useful features.
If you think your operating system is fast, wait until you get a load of the latest release from Fedora."

Hello 40 ! :)
Finally upgraded my last machine (and my daily driver) to a release distro.

is a very great experience even in it's current pre-release state. Many thanks to all of the folks at Fedora for making this awesome distribution! :fedora:

Fedora Silverblue 40 is out today. If you have rpm-fusion layered so you can’t upgrade through GNOME Software, run these commands in Terminal:

  1. Pin current version:

sudo ostree admin pin 0

  1. Handle rpm-fusion nastiness:

rpm-ostree update --uninstall rpmfusion-free-release --uninstall rpmfusion-nonfree-release --install rpmfusion-free-release --install rpmfusion-nonfree-release

  1. Rebase to Fedora Silverblue 40:

rpm-ostree rebase fedora:fedora/40/x86_64/silverblue

Just rebooted and I’m up and running with Fedora Silverblue 40.

(Just tried reinstalling mozilla-openh264 – so videos work in Firefox – but it failed with the same error. Not a big deal, I’m using @Vivaldi as my main browser these days anyway and I guess the Fedora folks will fix this in time.)

More importantly, I wonder if the screen reader has been fixed yet. (Yes, Fedora ships with a broken screen reader.)

Just checked and yes, the screen reader is still broken in Fedora 40. (Cannot be controlled; keyboard shortcuts/modifier key doesn’t work.)

So this is yet another release where the screen reader is broken by default.

It’s amazing to me that this is not a showstopper.

If everything goes well, the update to Fedora Kinoite 40 will be available in Plasma Discover once you update to tomorrow's Fedora Kinoite 39 update.

Note that we currently don't have proper download progress reporting in Discover's interface so please be patient while the update downloads. You can check "progress" via the network traffic in the network widget.

Stay tuned for incoming improvements to rpm-ostree support in Discover 🙂.

Drugi raport z używania Jest dobrze, nawet bardzo dobrze nie licząc Nvidii... Fedora jest oficjalnie wspieraną dystrybucją przez cuda i nvcc. Strona Nvidii mówi wręcz, że wspierane są aktywnie wspierane majory. Więc wspierana jest też 40, której charmonogram premiery jest dość dobrze znany z wyprzedzeniem?

Otuż, nie. Okazuje się, że nvcc i gcc aktualnie są rozjechane wersjami i próba zbudowania jednego projektu kończy się klęską, nawet jeśli zignoruję wersję... Tak więc, jakbędę miał chwilę będę musiał sprawdzić podmana i jak działa z toolkitem od GPU Nvidii dla kontenerów...

Hmm. It seems I ran into an issue with Fedora 40 and KDE 6 after today's update. Am I the only person with this issue?

When I run systemsettings, I get the following error:

$ systemsettings
systemsettings: symbol lookup error: /lib64/libKF6KCMUtils.so.6: undefined symbol: _ZN32KCategorizedSortFilterProxyModel16staticMetaObjectE

I guess it could be related to the following?:

Problem 1: package telegram-desktop-4.16.8-1.fc40.x86_64 requires libQt6Core.so.6(Qt_6.6_PRIVATE_API)(64bit), but none of the providers can be installed

@Vivaldi Bug report:

  • OS: Fedora Linux 40.20240424.0 (Silverblue) x86_64
  • DE: GNOME 46.1 (Wayland)

After signing in after sleep, Vivaldi renders at @1x even though my screen is set to @2x.

(Moving the window around or resizing it, etc., re-renders it at the correct resolution.)
