This is where I got answers about how to get the wifi working on my wifés 2012 MacBook Pro running Fedora

https://discussion.fedoraproject.org/t/macbook-pro-user-struggles-to-connect-to-wifi-on-fedora-35/75859/8

I don’t remember the steps but the answers are in there.

Thanks for the link.

I’ve created the request and you can vote for it https://ideas.joinpeertube.org/posts/285/allow-creators-to-make-their-channel-watcheable-only-with-financial-support

Yeah and the arrival of the mobile app with the ability to log into your account is a huge step.

The next step would be to be able to lock some content for people who are not supporting creators (to motivate creators to post on peertube and make money with it).

Wow what a surprise!

Let’s hope it takes off and remains there for a really long time with a bit more users.

Or having a Playstation 5 in the side to avoid Windows.

It’s what I’ll be doing with a Steam Deck/Playstation 5 combo.

For image backups I use Clonezilla.

It works well but I don’t know how easily you could take an image from one computer to a different one. I tried once and it didn’t work because of Legacy Bios issues…still I guess it works between two modern computers.

I’d love if something like this was implemented directly in a distribution for ease of use.

I have a Surface Go 1 and I’m really happy with it.

But, I have to admit it was tricky to boot Linux on it and the blutooth doesn’t always work. The cameras too, but I don’t care.

Still, it’s a great device that you can attach to a big screen to get the best of both worlds (easy to transport and useful at home).

It worked.

All I had to do:

sudo ls /boot | grep vmlinuz sudo grubby --set-default /boot/vmlinuz-6.12.11-200.fc41.x86_64 sudo dnf autoremove

Thanks a lot

Thanks, I’ll check it out👍

Thanks for the answer, but then how do I remove all of these packages?

I haven’t found a proper answer on the web.

Thanks for the info 👍

Is it something enabled by default or are you forced to go through a lot of customization to arrive to this result?

I love GNOME and the way you just open everything in a full screen window and just switch workspaces easily.

I find it so much better than just switching windows the way I have to do on Windows 10 at work.

I might be tempted to try to have the same workflow on KDE one day as personnalisation might a bit too limited on GNOME. Does anyone know if you can do it?

It makes me feel so nostalgic.

I still remember trying something alien called Linux on an old Dell Laptop (and also on my Playstation 3) I had inherited from my dad’s company. It was good that everything worked out of the box because I had not technical knowledge. I can’t know for sure but I guess it was a version of Ubuntu between 6.XX and 8.XX.

Then it was Linux all the time, until having a Windows dual boot in the mid-2010 before switching back to Linux fully at the beginning of the 2020’s.

No more Ubuntu though since I fell in love with Fedora.

Sorry as I’m struggling to express clearly.

SaveDesktop has the option to backup your home folder.

I was thinking that the save destination had to be outside of the home folder if I wanted to also backup my home folder. Otherwise it could end up in some kind of loop where the archive would contain itself and get bigger and bigger. That’s why I thought the SaveDesktop archive with the home folder shouldn’t be saved inside home.

I hope It nakes more sense 😅

I’ve managed to create an archive with SaveDesktop, but only on my internal disk drive as I think the external drive was what was creating the problem.

Do you know what would be the difference if I backup or don’t my home file? I’d have to find a way to back it up outside of home, but it’s complicated since it doesn’t work with an external drive.

I mean I don’t think I can backup home with Savedesktop inside home, so I’ll have to look at my file structure once I can get back in front of my computer.

But when you just copy one partition, do you need to do something special for the system to boot?

Oh well thanks for this information. I’ll see what I’ll do but I’m determined to keep using the Aspire for a few things.

Well I don’t distro hop so I don’t think it would be used more than once a year.

The only thing is that I would want the way I’ve configured Gnome, Joplin, Thunderbird, Gnome Calendar (only for the widget), my Gnome extensions, what program is automatically opened on what workspace, etc to be saved so that it could be reproduced on another computer easily.

My documents, pictures, etc are already taken care of so it ain’t a problem.

I know I could do the same thing by writing a tutorial and just spending a couple of hours every time I reinstall. But I would want to just be able to replicate my install/settings if possible.

Someone kindly mentioned SaveDesktop and for now it seems like the way to go since simply cloning with Clonezilla doesn’t seem to work. I just have to make it work.

I tried it normally but then it had another problem so that’s why I tried to gove it more access through Flatseal as recommended on the SaveDesktoo Github page.

I’ll have a deeper look when I get the time. Thanks
