    Red Hat's Relationship With Fedora

  • OpenSUSE seeks a Leap replacement, but will distro community rise to the challenge?

    Jump

  • So, is SUSE not doing a traditional Linux distro anymore? I'm not really understanding this ALP move.

  • Reccomend applications that don't need a display server?

    Jump

  • You could include pass. It is a password manager that is primarily terminal-based, but because it uses standard GPG encrypted files to do so, they are viewable in your file browser and there are graphical extensions for your web browser.

    It also uses Git so you can sync it to a remote repository, and Git can be seen as another application that works in a similar manner. It is terminal-based, but there are graphical front ends like gitg.

    Fedora Workstation 39 Planning To Drop Custom Qt Theming

  • Looking for a better HTPC setup

    Jump

  • I have the same Logitech keyboard, but I don't recommend it. The touchpad has no multitouch and scrolls terribly. For what we paid for it, you'd think it would be better than that. Beautiful design and solid feel otherwise though.

    How Columbia University Uses Fedora CoreOS

  • Game ad notification on Windows...

    Jump

  • The fact that you need a group policy to turn this kind of garbage off is ridiculous.

  • Are there any advantages of using Rust instead of C in the Linux kernel?

    Jump

  • It just depends on how isolated that part of the kernel is. Unsafe code should be done only in interop, and so it still theoretically has a memory safety benefit over C in that sense.

    In terms of how much interop code needs to be written for Rust at this point is another discussion though.

  • Isn't it weird that we put credentials in the environment?

    Jump

  • You could decrypt a GPG key-based file to do that.

  • I can attest that this also helped me as well. Thank you!

  • How does Fedora's package update scheme work?

    Jump

  • Well, there are limits to the updates. It's not quite like a rolling release in that some software will get minor release updates, but not major ones (like GNOME is frozen on version 43 for Fedora 37 and 44 on 38 respectively). The software that typically gets major updates are the kernel and applications. So it's basically a range of updates.

    Once the release goes out of support, it won't get any updates either. In a rolling release, you have no actual versioning of the distro itself, and it can perpetually go on with updates forever. That's not going to happen in Fedora Linux. You still have major point releases of the distro itself.

  • How does Fedora's package update scheme work?

    Jump

  • Yep. Packages get backported for supported versions. So basically right now, it's Fedora Linux 37 and 38. Our "testing branch" is Fedora Rawhide.

  • Red Hat stops all upstream and downstream work on desktop Bluetooth, multimedia applications (namely totem, rhythmbox and sound-juicer) and libfprint/fprintd

    Jump

  • Didn't you see the slave labor clause in there? You're indebted for at least 3 decades when you start a new GPL project.
