Hello all,

I have installed Fedora Workstation onto my Framework 13 and plan to use this as my sole OS for University ( Studying Education). There are a few major hurdles to jump, not being able to use Microsoft programs like word or teams. i have started using Obsidian for my note taking and i have the libreoffice apps is there any advice for things to do to make this experience even better?

It works, it runs almost all of my steam games flawlessly, everything feels snappy and fairly intuitive.

I used to use Arch Linux and it took like 40 seconds to boot and was unstable so I switched to fedora, which still takes long to boot. Once booted though it works fine but I’m just sick of the loading times. For reference my boot loader is grub and I don’t have any other operating systems that I use on that drive

I just spent an hour trying to set a standard 2560x1440 OEM Lenovo ThinkPad wallpaper as my GDM login image.

• Tried GDM settings

• Tried scripts (URL and compilation errors)

• Tried manually editing /etc/dconf/db/gdm.d/01-background using org/gnome/desktop/background and screensaver schemas.

All it did was change my user desktop to a solid fallback color and completely ignored the login greeter image. Why does GNOME make customizing a login background an absolute nightmare?

fedora with 2 extensions

Hi everyone.

I'm glad that I found fedora workstation to be my favorite of all the distros I tried since last month.

It all started with Windows 11 not launching a game which was perfectly working on older version (22H2) of it but not after I updated. No matter what I did. I have been windows user since Windows 95 but 11 is getting very annoying lately.

So just for sake of trying I installed linux mint and set up lutris/wine and game launched immediately. And thus began my journey to move away from Windows to Linux. I always had like MacOS design and wanted something similar so I tried shaping mint as MacOS which was good but It still felt lacking.

I switched to cachyos with kde plasma. Customised it so much and finally got the look i wanted but turned out rolling releases were not my thing as i wanted something which require less maintenance.

So here i am with gnome and only two extensions, blur my shell and dash to dock. I like tinkering but now i feel like my primary OS should be minimal and just let me focus on my work. End of distrohopping for me.

Hoping to learn linux fast.

Is there a reason NOT to opt for Atomic Fedora? Currently using Mint but I am looking at Fedora instead, just curious what the opinions are.

Earlier this week, there was a Phoronix article that claimed good performance improvement by swapping the Fedora default power profile on Fedora to standard profile: https://www.phoronix.com/review/fedora-pantherlake-thermald-tuned

From my own research, I found the standard profile is designed for desktop OS and the Fedora tuned version is better for server. It is no surprise to me because Fedora trademark is owned by Red Hat/IBM.

So I decided to give my laptop (Fedora Workstation) a try by swapping the power profile. My laptop is a Lenovo Yoga Aura Edition with Intel Luna Lake 258v CPU and 32GB RAM. The multi-core performance improvement is quite impressive. See numbers below and links:

Before: single, 2,566; multi, 10,929

After: single, 2,581; multi, 11,962

Links:

Before: https://browser.geekbench.com/v7/cpu/70433

After: https://browser.geekbench.com/v7/cpu/131715

Both of my desktop PCs run Rocky Linux. I checked their power profiles and surely they run the tuned version. If you have swapped the Fedora profile as well, please do a benchmark of your choice and share the results.

Total n00b post.

Been running 44 KDE for a few months now. Anyway, today I though I'd create a shortcut for konsole. Super+T makes sense to me, t for terminal.

To my surprise I get this window manager thing and I can configure it. Then I figured out how to snap windows to my configured layout! omg I've been missing out. On most days, if I had shut down things or rebooted the computer, I'd fire up my apps and then organize them the way I want. But the window manager is so cool.

Then I went to adjust the size of something only to notice that the other windows follow along! Shrinking one window automatically expands another to fill the space. Incredible and I wish I had known this even existing weeks ago! I know it's likely something trivial to everyone else, but to me it's an unexpected discovery and a bit of a quality of life game changer for day to day.

Through all of this I learned there's already a shortcut for konsole, it's ctrl+alt+t.
