anyone using kernel 5.19-rc7 ?
by old sixpack13
is anyone already using kernel 5.19-rc7 ?
if so:
are you also seeing higher idle CPU frequency compared to 5.18.xyz ?
on my Intel i5-11400 (freq. range 800-4400 MHz) I see idle freq.:
- with kernel 5.18: ~800 MHz
- with kernel 5.19: ~2600 MHz (what is the base freq.)

are there typical ways Fedora tends to break?
by Chris Murphy
Hi,
I have a request for list regulars.
The Fedora Workstation working group is curious if there's any pattern
or categorization how Fedora installations typically break. i.e. the
installation is successful, the system has been updated multiple times
successfully, and then for whatever reason it breaks.
Are most failures hardware related? This could be broken down into
hard failure (drive or logic board failed) and soft failure (some
hardware configuration change and reverting the change resolves the
problem).
What portion of the failures are early boot failures? (Defined as
bootloader, kernel, or early initramfs failures. But excludes being
landed at a dracut prompt.)
What portion of the failures land the user at a dracut shell?
What portion of the failures does the user get to a graphical shell
but can't login?
What portion of the failures can the user login but there's some sort
of anomalous behavior?
What portion of all failures are fixable without reinstalling?
Is the GRUB "rescue" menu entry ever useful in resolving problems?
Could everyone reading this try booting the "rescue" menu entry and
describe what happens? How does the actual behavior compare to what
you thought would happen?
The questions list is not complete, feel free to add your own
categorizations / failure patterns that you tend to see.
Thanks!

Wifi not Started at Boot and Networkmanager Wifi Last Used Stats
Wrong
by Stephen Morris
Hi,
I booted into Fedora this morning and had no network available
because wifi had not been started. Dmesg showed the following message:
iwlwifi: probe of 0000:05:00.0 failed with error -110
There is not an issue with the wifi router as my wife was using the
internet on her laptop at the time.
Also, when I looked at the wifi definition it said the wifi was
last used 3 hours ago, but it has been over 9 hours since I shutdown my
pc and that was from Windows, so where is networkmanager (assuming
Fedora is still using networkmanager) getting its information from? I am
using KDE for my desktop.
regards,
Steve

Major Problem with wine 7.12 update??
by Michael D. Setzer II
After the update of wine today, I've run into a major
problem. The primary wine app I use stopped working
correctly.
Program Pegasus Email loads fine and downloaded mail
fine, but then the panel to view it comes up with a little
spining icon and it just sit there tried accessing a number
of the emails, and doesn't matter which one I selected got
the same issue. Had to kill the program to clear the
locked screen. Had no issues with the 7.10 version..
Run dnf downgrade wine* and it install
wine-core-6.16-1.fc35.
Was expecting it to just go back to 7.10.
Have never done a downgrade before. Started with
Redhat 9 long long ago have have gone thru Fedora Core
1 up to the current Fedora 35 I have running.
That did fix the issue, since the program is running fine
again with the 6.16 version of wine..
So, questions.
1. Not seeing any messages that would tell me what is
causing the issue. Nothing in the window itself and
nothing from top or ps -ef that I can tell.
2. Is there a way to get it to upgrade to 7.10 rather than
going all the way to the 7.12 which has some issue.
3. Have it emulating at windows 10 level, but not sure if it
might have worked with some other level??
First time I've had any issues with wine running this app.
Don't know what I would report in a bug report, since it is
just showing the spining circle.
Thanks.

dnf update
by Patrick Dupre
Hello,
It seems that fc36 tries to run a dnf update automatically when the machine goes
to shutdown.
If I am correct, how can I avoid it?
