The planned fix for that is a new shim build that is signed with a key that will not be revoked, but we're still waiting on that to be built and signed. We wanted to give FESCo the option at Thursday's go/no-go of deciding not to block on the re-signed shim any more, so we did this compose. The plan is to do full testing on it, and if that doesn't turn up any other blockers, we'll decide whether to ship it on Thursday. So if folks can please try to help get complete test results on this candidate, that'd be great. Thanks very much! -- Adam Williamson Fedora QA Community Monkey IRC: adamw | Twitter: AdamW_Fedora | XMPP: adamw AT happyassassin . net http://www.happyassassin.net

I see kwinft is available here: Repository : copr:copr.fedorainfracloud.org:zawertun:kde I guess this is an alternative to kwin. How can I try it out? Thanks, Neal -- *Those who don't understand recursion are doomed to repeat it*

force use of X11 on wayland?
by Neal Becker 15 Oct '20

15 Oct '20

I've been trying wayland but I've run into one problem. Working from home, I need to share presentations, and I prefer to share a window. If I'm running chrome, it is using Xwayland (shows under xlsclients). I can't share a window from a wayland client this way. As a workaround, is there some way to force a client, such as okular, to use X11 instead of wayland, so that it would be able to be shared in this way? Thanks, Neal -- *Those who don't understand recursion are doomed to repeat it*

Comments on fedora/kde on an HP Pro x2 612 G2
by Enrique Artal 08 Oct '20

Dear members of the list, I have been using for a while the laptop in the subject and I would like to write something about my experience in case it may be useful for other users, and to ask for some advice for some small issues. This laptop is a 2-in-1 laptop with touch and detachable screen. At the beginning it was quite difficult to use it with KDE, and quite usable with GNOME, fortunately for me, it is now more usable in KDE. Most of the hardware works, besides fingerprint reader (not really needed) and webcam (this is worse, but there are ways to use a cellphone as webcam). The rotation of the screen worked very well in gnome. In order to work with KDE, one can use https://github.com/dos1/kded_rotation. I wonder if it can be included in Fedora. The qt virtual keyboard is not really very usable (much better in KDE), but OnBoard is useful enough. Sometimes the physical keyboard stop working but detaching-and-attaching solves the issue. Thanks for reading, Enrique.
