It was a brief mention, but we're grateful for the positive feedback on our change proposal process from @thelinuxEXP :)

The Fedora change process is supposed to be open and transparent so that contributors and also users can discuss the finer points of Fedora. It's an invitation to see how we work and even engage yourself.

We're glad that folks see the value and participate!

My bluetooth keyboard now works on Fedora to enter the LUKS passphrase at boot-time YAY! 🙂

1st: Pair keyboard normally within the OS

2nd: add /etc/dracut.conf.d/bluetooth.conf :

add_drivers+="bluetooth btusb hid hidp bnep btbcm btintel"
install_items+="/var/lib/bluetooth/*"
add_dracutmodules+="bluetooth"

3rd: sudo dracut -fv

It worked 🙂

Auf meinem Desktoprechner habe ich ja den #Cinnamon Spin Out von #Fedora installiert. Ich habe mir dann auch mal #Gnome angesehen. Habe ich aber schnell verworfen. Die Bedienung finde ich gelinde gesagt ätzend. Seit einiger Zeit nutze ich jetzt #KDE #Plasma. Das gefällt mir recht gut. Läuft flüssig. Tendenziell bleibt es dabei.

Deshalb habe ich mich entschieden, dass ich auf dem #Laptop Fedora KDE Plasma installieren werde. Ist offiziell von Fedora supportet, kein Spin out.

Fun personal fact: First time I tried to install Linux, I downloaded and burned Fedora *source* isos which didn't work (5 discs, IIRC). I then successfully downloaded and installed DEBIAN (only 1 disc), but got a command line prompt. After testing every DOS/NT command I knew, I never got a GUI, so I went back and burned the proper Fedora Core installer (another 5 discs).

In an alternative reality, I would have been a Debian loyalist.

Reviews are coming out for the @frameworkcomputer Desktop! Lots of interesting takes to read, but we think there's a special one you don't want to miss.

Framework Desktop officially supports Fedora Linux! If you're looking for a desktop, consider the Linux support before you buy. That can make your purchase a dream or a headache. 👀

Adding "nomodeset" to the grub kernel commandline makes the Fedora bootscreen and the LUKS password prompt appear and work.

Interesting.
