I noticed existence of /efi/ shortly after last dnf upgrade, looked at its content, thought it must have been an errant backup of some kind, moved the content elsewhere as just-in-case before removing it all, and sure enough, no more booting possible from NVME until after restoring from the backup and recreating the required EFI boot entry. Why was/is the ESP mounted anywhere when there is/was no fstab entry for it? Why does /efi/ exist? I added a new noauto fstab entry for the ESP to a unique location not within /boot/ and deleted /efi/, with the result that it stays unmounted, and /efi/ stays absent. -- Evolution as taught in public schools is, like religion, based on faith, not based on science.

by Sumantro Mukherjee 09 Oct '23

Hey All, We are going to test all forms of virtualization possible in Fedora. The test day [0] will focus on testing Fedora or your favourite distro inside a bare-metal implementation of Fedora running Boxes, KVM, VirtualBox, and whatever you have. The general features of installing the OS and working with it are outlined in the test cases which you will find on the results page [1].

The kernel patches seem to finally be getting merged upstream, but it may be just too late for F39, unfortunately - if so, we'll have to waive it one more time. It'd be good if Gerd / Peter / Justin can clarify the outlook here. 11. uboot-tools - https://bugzilla.redhat.com/2241252 - ASSIGNED Fedora-Workstation-39_Beta-1.1 boots to a black screen on Raspberry Pi 4 We need the maintainers to work out a fix for this one, Peter says he's working on it. 12. xdg-desktop-portal - https://bugzilla.redhat.com/2240211 - VERIFIED Fonts, maximize buttons, cursor size settings not applied in "GTK" Flatpaks Update is in testing - https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2023-a34ccfc45b . Just needs testing and karma. Proposed blockers ----------------- 1. blivet-gui - https://bugzilla.redhat.com/2241761 - MODIFIED cancelling partition editing by Esc doesn't cancel, but CONFIRMS the dialog We have a fix for this lined up and it's already accepted as an FE, so with testing and karma of https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2023-e9198d932d this should go away. 2. kbd - https://bugzilla.redhat.com/2242287 - MODIFIED loadkeys from kbd 2.6.1 triggers all mounts in the cwd Similarly to #1, this is already accepted as FE and https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2023-fa617966c7 is ready for testing. 3. kernel - https://bugzilla.redhat.com/2239807 - NEW Fedora 39 Wayland experiences regular screen blackouts at increasing intervals after login on amdgpu with kernel 6.5+ We need votes on this one at https://pagure.io/fedora-qa/blocker-review/issue/1359 , and it'd be great if kernel team can come up with a fix, of course. It's basically a judgment call about how commonly we think this bug is likely to come up based on the feedback so far. There's an outside chance 6.5.6 might happen to fix it, will ask the reporter. 4. librepo - https://bugzilla.redhat.com/2242115 - POST Binary PGP keys cannot be imported since librepo v1.16.0 We need votes on this one at https://pagure.io/fedora-qa/blocker-review/issue/1375 . So far I can't see a clear blocker justification, but take a look for yourself. A fix has been posted as an upstream PR, it would be great if the maintainer can build an update with it. -- Adam Williamson (he/him/his) Fedora QA Fedora Chat: @adamwill:fedora.im | Mastodon: @adamw@fosstodon.org https://www.happyassassin.net

Fedora 39 Upgrade Test Day is underway!
by Sumantro Mukherjee 05 Oct '23

05 Oct '23

Hey All, As we come closer to Fedora 39 release dates, it's time to test upgrades. Fedora 39 has a lot of changesets and it becomes essential that we test the graphical upgrade methods as well as the command line. As a part of this test day[0], we will test upgrading from a full updated, F37 and F38 to the F39 for all architectures(x86_64,ARM,aarch 64) and variants(WS,cloud,server,silverblue,IoT). We understand that upgrade takes time and testing if things work as expected, takes more. We will be accepting results throughout the weekend! The results can be submitted here[1] As usual, we hang out on the #fedora-test-day, should you have questions.

Good morning, Yesterday I got a new ISP. I have a new email address and I changed my email address in the Fedora Account System. I just checked it this morning and the new address is still there. However this morning the meeting announcements and test reports came to my old email address. Fortunately I haven't discontinued that ISP with it's associated email address yet. What else do I need to change for the QA related email to come to me new email address? Have a Great Day! tablepc Pat

Question to F39 who did a new install apart upgrade
by old sixpack13 03 Oct '23

03 Oct '23

since F38 it happens to me that the dir for the journals is filled up with a lot of small journals (~5 MB) and something regarding time Is this still the case with F39 *new* installs (explicit *NOT* upgrades, e.g. F38 => F39)
