Issues with HP mini and F27 Workstation
by Silvia Sánchez 16 Jan '18

16 Jan '18

Hello everyone, I have a small HP notebook and I thought of installing Fedora 27 Workstation on it. I tried it live but it turned out that all input are off or frozen. No touchpad, mouse, trackpad or keyboard will get a response from the system as soon as it loads Gnome Shell. It had Manjaro installed and worked fine. I tried Fedora 25 and worked fine so I installed it and updated it. I'm going to upgrade to 26 and then 27 and see if breaks at some moment. My questions are: 1) Is this a known issue? 2) Where should report this? Well, that's all for now. Kind regards, Silvia FAS: Lailah

fedora-workstation-repositories not installed by default?
by Elad Alfassa 15 Jan '18

15 Jan '18

Hi, I've noticed that 1) fedora-workstation-repositories is not installed by default on F27 2) After installing this package, there's no indication it's there in the gnome-software UI (even after killing the process and running pkcon refresh) My understanding is that this is supposed to enable user to install 3rd party stuff easily, currently just PyCharm or Google Chrome, and that gnome-software is supposed to display these (when the package is installed) and allow the user to install them with just a click (warning them that this is 3rd party software not supported by Fedora). Did I understand the feature correctly? Is the reason it's not installed by default is because the UI doesn't know how to deal with it, or is this a bug? Thanks, -- -Elad.

2018-01-08 @ 17:00 UTC - Fedora 28 Blocker Review Meeting
by Adam Williamson 05 Jan '18

05 Jan '18

# F28 Blocker Review meeting # Date: 2018-01-08 # Time: 17:00 UTC # Location: #fedora-blocker-review on irc.freenode.net Hi folks! We have six proposed blockers for Fedora 28 Beta, so let's have a review meeting on Monday. If you have time over the weekend, you can take a look at the proposed or accepted blockers before the meeting - the full lists can be found here: https://qa.fedoraproject.org/blockerbugs/ . We'll be evaluating these bugs to see if they violate any of the Release Criteria and warrant the blocking of a release if they're not fixed. Information on the release criteria for F28 can be found on the wiki [0]. For more information about the Blocker and Freeze exception process, check out these links: - https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/QA:SOP_blocker_bug_process - https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/QA:SOP_freeze_exception_bug_process And for those of you who are curious how a Blocker Review Meeting works - or how it's supposed to go and you want to run one - check out the SOP on the wiki: - https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/QA:SOP_Blocker_Bug_Meeting Have a good weekend and see you on Monday!
