So I had alot of time on my hands to tweak Fastfetch and Ghostty config to my liking.

No era Cool Retro Term sino Fedora 43

¿Usas Cool Retro Term sobre #Fedora43 y no puedes ver o escribir emojis?
En esta entrada explico por qué y cómo resolverlo.

I can't be able to figure out why my laptop touchpad keeps turnings itself off on Fedora 43 KDE plasma. Any Linux ninja that have any idea what it could be?

Happens when I shut the lid. Even before suspend

Seriously #gnome don't you test your new apps?
1. "Papers" the new PDF viewer prints a single landscape page blatantly horizontal on the piece of paper, cutting off half of the contents, wasting paper and ink. While I can fix that *manually* for each print in the print dialog this was *never* an issue with the older Evince.
2. "Loupe" the new image viewer supposedly can rotate images. Well, it has a nice rotation animation but then the image snaps right back. Opened in "Eye of Gnome" everything works just fine 🤦‍♂️
3. Nautilus also had smaller issues after big updates, sometimes not refreshing after file operations or getting stuck with cut and paste.

What happened to form follows function?

I'm done for today, don't even feel like reporting those bugs. (If anyone does: thank you, feel free to share the link ❤️ )

I'll switch back to evince&eog for now. They are still working fine thankfully.

Tips on #wineHQ integration with #KDE #Plasma? I successfully installed Send to Kindle, and can invoke it from a command line, but am at a loss as to how to get Windows "application links" to show up within the KDE launchers.

Upgrading Fedora on my home desktop PC last night was a bit more exciting than usual. It's a bit of a Ship of Theseus PC and has gone through several hardware upgrades and many, many incremental distro upgrades since the last clean install, which appears to have been Fedora 31 from way back in 2019. These upgrades have generally gone smoothly, but after running the upgrade from Fedora 42 to 43 I was left with a computer where GDM would crash on startup, leaving me with an unresponsive black screen instead of a login prompt.

Fortunately a bit of searching led me to the root cause and the fix, and I was able to SSH in and get the machine working again. It's a bit of a corner case that only affects machines that were originally running Fedora 35 or older, and somehow missed the migration to authselect that should have happened automatically when upgrading to Fedora 36: https://discussion.fedoraproject.org/t/gdm-crashes-after-upgrade-to-fedora-43-due-to-authselect-migration/171961
