I just installed fedora 41 and my nothing earbuds do not show up. Is there a certain package I need to install? Thanks.

So I just got on Fedora and pretty much have "setteled in" but I'm still not sure about few things.

- How to best utilize the terminal?
I don't quite know what to use it for or how I should use it.

- How do I download stuff?
I've downloaded things like steam and spotify but they were either luck or guides I really didn't learn anything from.
And more spesifically I'd like to get fl studio but I don't know how.

- Is there a way I can get shortcuts like ctrl + v/c/x back?
My muscle memory keeps doing it with my keyboard.

I'm exploring Terminal emulators that supports plugins so I can implement some custom features. I have a few features in mind and wanted to brainstorm a bit on what other features could make a Terminal really awesome.

Some ideas I'm exploring:

1. Change background color based on the SSH server I'm connecting to. I could have a predefined list of servers as staging, production, etc. and if I connect via SSH to one of these servers, the background should automatically change.

2. AI Assistant - There are some already but these are applications that need to be installed on every system. Instead, I am looking to implement this as a Terminal plugin so it does not matter which server I SSH into. It basically parses text from the Vte object underneat for some context, and then takes my prompt to generate a command, and then types the command for me to decide whether I want to run it or not.

3. Select from a list of Ansible playbooks. Very often I might spin up a VM, and the first thing I do is SSH into it and install some packages. So I thought, won't it be nice if I could just right click on the Terminal, choose an Ansible playbook and have it execute more complex tasks?

What ideas do you have to make the terminal more featureful?

easy problem, but cant seem to figure out a solution.

my laptop has a simcard for internet, and in fedora 41 there is this quick action menu in the top right. if i start the laptop there is no button to enable mobile broadband, i need to head into settings, and press the button there to enable the adapter. after that, the button shows up! i can press on it to deactivate it, activate it again. no problem.

but when i go into standby or restart the laptop, the button is gone again!

i dont want to auto-enable the mobile internet, i just want the button to be there, so i can simply press it!

do you have a solution for that?

In Fedora 41, the new terminal Ptyxis is absolutely fantastic! However, after switching from Bash to Zsh (with Powerlevel10k), I noticed that I lost the notification feature of Ptyxis when a command finishes execution.

Does anyone know how to enable this notification feature in Zsh? It’s incredibly useful, as it saves me from constantly checking if a command has completed.

Thanks in advance!

tried key combinations, but doesnt seems to work, i feel like its related to my gpu card, i got amd radeon integrated and nvidia rtx 3060 dedicated gpu in my laptop

Apparently, the command --no-install-recommends plasma-desktop is for Debian/Ubuntu (apt) users. What is the command for Fedora ?

So I know there are plenty of threads about this issue already, however, none of them have helped me solve mine. Bambu Studio will work perfectly after a fresh install as long as I don't select my "off-brand" printer. After I select it, BS will crash immediately and will forever thereafter crash immediately after launch.

I've tried the typical libwebkit installs to no avail. Dmesg shows libwebkit is the issue. I tried older releases and they all behave the same way. I tried Orca and it won't ever launch even after fresh install.

Any more ideas? I'm all out.

Hi. Im using Fedora 41 on my ThinkPad T480S.

Recently, im getting this problem when suspending the system. First, the system suspends, but wakeup immidiately and hang up. When i hold the power button to force shutdown, it shows the error in the picture i attach here. Then the system refuse to boot (doesnt show grub menu) in about 15-20mins later.

Help me. Thank you all.

hi guys i'm on fedora 41 with KDE and i would like to use my switch pro controller, do you have any idea of how to do that? i didn't find anything on internet for this specific controller and version.

since new version of fedora comes out but my internal display died should i upgrade i mean it doesnt involve doing anything in bios right. Also worth mentioning I have nvidia discrete gpu and xfce de. Is there anything nvidia would do to mess up the upgrade

My system;

Fedora 41, GNOME 47, Linux 6.11.10-300.fc41.x86_64.

Yesterday after some update including Kernel update, Evolution mail applicaiton does not starting up.

Any idea to help me?

Hello everyone. I apologize in advance for my bad English. But I have a question about drivers for old Nvidia video cards.

The first question is that after the first installation, I get the NVCF driver. Since I did not find specific information about it, I would like to ask here. Is there any point in installing something to replace it?

And the second question is that after installing the driver, in my case it is 390xx. Then when the system boots, I get a black screen. How can I fix this?

I am using Fedora 41 Workstation with a GTS 450 video card. Thank you in advance for your answers.

[SOLVED]

TL;DR

libvirt net-start default fail after installing pi-hole, dnsmasq report address already in use but none listed in "ip address".

Hello everyone!

I have F40 Server Edition with libvirt and pi-hole. 2 instances of VM has been created and working fine before I installed pi-hole. After installing pi-hole and restart, VM won't fire up, and spit out error that the "default network" is not initiated.

I tried sudo virsh net-start default and the error is:

dnsmasq: failed to create listening socket for 192.168.122.1: Address already in use

the IP in question doesn't show

#ip address

I also check Pi-hole setting files at /etc/pihole/* and found no traces that it uses 122.1. I also search for Pi-hole documentation regarding dnsmasq but unfortunately unable to find one related to my problem, or maybe I overlooked it.

appreciate any help or direction to the right documentation! Thanks.

I installed neofetch on another device and started tweaking with the config files and thought I would do the same thing with Fedora. I installed Fastfetch, but where are the files for it? I can't the config.conf file in bash folder and the default Gnome file manager doesn't even have a root folder. Am i stupid?

I want to switch from x11 to wayland but I couldn't find an alternative to my 2 finger gestures setup using syngestures.

libinput-gestures, wzmach and any other software I found is using libinput and thereby is limited to a minimum of 3 fingers per swipe. I believe libinput interprets 2 fingers as scrolling and by that is unable to recognize the gesture.

did anybody find a workaround ?

I use F41 with LXDE. Under Preferences --> Monitor Settings there always was a second HDMI monitor that I could use from my laptop. Today I boot and I can't get it, there is only line for the laptop display. Is there some "rescan" or "find monitors" function?

Hello guys, I'm switching to Linux and i would really not dual boot but the thing is i do phone repairs and i use a lot this digital microscope i linked. It uses the software i screenshotted but the one i really need is Vimicrocam that makes it display on the pc.

Would it work with some other Linux cam software? I get no image on VLC, the Windows cam and OBS. Ive managed to get image only using AMcap.

The device is called H1600 cam in all of them, if it helps.
Thank you for your time and have a nice day.

I have a Fiio K3 USB-DAC that makes a pop sound when doesn't receive any sound (after a few seconds) and then makes it again when i play music, system sounds, whatever.

This issue exists in Windows too, but can be solved by changing the "Streaming" option to "Always on" (By default is in "On when needed"...

I've tried using TPL to prevent this usb device to suspend itself, but didn't work

Any ideas

hello, i'm new to linux and as my first distro i chose fedora, and i find it amazing. i have a problem connecting my xbox one controller via wireless (with its dongle).

i wanna switch from workstation to just fedora sway.

A screenshot that shows Visual Studio Code with icons. These icons are too thick because of the stem darkening, but the non-icon fonts have good results.

Like many I'm using the Freetype2 option called Stem Darkening:

no-stem-darkening

All glyphs that pass through the auto-hinter will be emboldened unless this property is set to TRUE. The same is true for the CFF, Type 1, and CID font modules if the ‘Adobe’ engine is selected (which is the default).

Stem darkening emboldens glyphs at smaller sizes to make them more readable on common low-DPI screens when using linear alpha blending and gamma correction, see FT_Render_Glyph. When not using linear alpha blending and gamma correction, glyphs will appear heavy and fuzzy!

[ ... ]

For the auto-hinter, stem-darkening is experimental currently and thus switched off by default (that is, no-stem-darkening is set to TRUE by default). Total consistency with the CFF driver is not achieved right now because the emboldening method differs and glyphs must be scaled down on the Y-axis to keep outline points inside their precomputed blue zones. The smaller the size (especially 9ppem and down), the higher the loss of emboldening versus the CFF driver.no-stem-darkening.

Source: https://freetype.org/freetype2/docs/reference/ft2-properties.html#no-stem-darkening

This is accomplished by modifying `/etc/environment` or similar to include:

FREETYPE_PROPERTIES="cff:no-stem-darkening=0 autofitter:no-stem-darkening=0"

This produces the results you see in the screenshot. On the left (in red) is with this configuration enabled, and you can see the text is thicker. However, this also includes the icons. Many icons are too thick, but also some icons have been degraded such as the 4th icon down.

Overall it would be ideal to control this setting and apply it to all fonts except those that are likely icon families. My plan here was to leverage fontconfig and match against those with "Icon" in their name.

In theory, that would yield an XML file like this:

https://gist.github.com/krisives/5ab6ff4d8abcdf338f24ba49f6821b30

However, it appears that there is no way to set this specific of a Freetype setting from within fontconfig? Sure, we can control the hinter and a few other things, but this setting is pretty specific.

Do any fontconfig gurus know how to create such a rule? Is there a different system that can be used to accomplish this? Do fontconfig gurus even exist? 🤔

Hiii,, i don't know if this is the right thread, but i need some help, my boyfriend installed fedora on my computer bc it was kinda slow with windows, well, i don't knwo much of fedora or linux at all, and the problem is that when i "take off" the screen i can't use it properly bc it contstantly move, the only thing that i noticed is that when i put it back, in the settings says that is fliped horizontally , what can i do? (sorry if my english is bad, is not my first lenguaje)

I really hope Fedora actually moves forward with making the KDE spin an official Edition instead of just a spin. I've used basically all the major desktop environments, and KDE is second to none. The customization options are great and all the bugs and kwin crashes of the past have been fixed.

I have to put selinux into permissive mode to run my php application / website.

I have tried following some guides online with some success but the php application itself refuses to work.

What are the proper steps to fix this? I am using php-fpm.
