Maybe they could make a theme pack or something for Fedora users to get the Korora style and setup on Fedora.

I don't know what their goals were, as I'm not too familiar with the project, but why didn't they just choose to do this from the start?

Edit: I guess I could not be lazy and read their "about" page myself :smiling_face_with_halo: looks like they wanted to add packages to make the software more user-friendly "out of the box." Codecs, media players, third-party repos, etc.

Right basically things that Fedora will never do natively because of licensing.

@scottalanmiller I am on 6.4.something and it works for me on Fedora.

No Korora instance to test on

That I like.

Shows Firefox using about 15%MEM

How often are you restarting FF? On Korora I found that it could not be left on for more than one day.

The system as a whole has only been running 1:4:3:00 - I restarted FF this morning after @dafyre made mention of it.

I mentioned the other day that you needed to restart it regularly 😉

My vote on this topic is Fedora. Just so few problems that i don't cause myself. Its made for Gnome.

Fedora Desktop has an awesome one baked in too. It's my favorite one. Forget the name without looking.

Its called Fedora Media Writer and it is awesome.

Yes that's it. I use it on Windows too.

The test with Gecko Linux is working great. No issues like before, sleep works fine. Fingers crossed, but it looks good.

It's looking so good, I might switch my desktop!

Are you using static or rolling version?
Have you tried the cinnamon version?

Rolling (based on Tumbleweed), and no, not in this case.

Really like Fedora with KDE Plasma atm. Trying Deepin on my laptop too

Deepin is surprisingly good.

Love the look of it and my touchpad feels pretty good on it. Nextcloud client isn't proving very stable atm though, having to configure it again. Followed your guide setting that up (top result on Google!)

NC has been totally stable for me on Deepin.

Dolphin does not see it.

Nemo sees it,.. 100GB device.

@JaredBusch said in Anyone put Korora/Fedora on an Inspiron 2 in 1:

Well I had to buy the Inspiron, because it was in stock and available now. My MBP officially has no reliable wifi.

That sucks, on two counts!

And now I wait. 🙂

Awesome

About the laptop, not the waiting.

Fedora or Korora? Korora is probably a little nicer for a non-power user.

Either or. I've not set on a certain distro yet, as long as it's a fedora derived.

Korora has a lot of spit and shine.

Actually, I got it working with bumblebee-project installed. It did not work in Korora 25, but seems to be working in 26.

I prefixed the wow-64.exe with optirun and it just worked. Great framerate too. I just need to work out the mouse capture part yet. But that's not a big deal since I don't play that game much anyways. It was just easy to test with because it's on an external drive. Hopefully it's not like that in NMS.

My cpu fan is still running full speed from the glxgear test, even though it's way cooled down by now. A reboot may fix that, though.

I hope Fedora 26 stays just as it is. "Works" great so far. More so than 25.

@JaredBusch said in Korora - what do you do with the desktop experience:

Looks like I have KDE.

I did not actually pick one. I simply clicked download, so I randomly got KDE.

Now to switch to Cinnamon.

Oh. I respect the KDE team a lot but I've not been comfortable with their desktop post version 3. It's solid and loaded with features but the Plasma stuff is weird and not intuitive. If you go "power user" on it I'm sure it's great. But for me, I left it as I'm a more casual style desktop user and it just didn't fit with me.

I think that they decided that the market was full and that they needed to really innovate to be relevant, which they did. It's interesting and someday I hope to have time to dig into it more.

Ya I don't see the use of the plasma workspaces. I use the traditional workspaces a ton in Gnome 3, but I don't see the value to what plasma does with them. I tried having a separate "business" vs "personal" workspace a while ago and just couldn't wrap my head around the use case.

Same here. The old style desktops I used and liked. Plasma I just can't figure out.

@scottalanmiller Also, using just using the root domain name for the conf file name is potentially confusing depending on how much you are hosting.

Even for my gaming website, I have a bunch of sub domains setup.

www.daerma.com.conf goes to the root and www.
oc.daerma.com.conf is owncloud
obelisk.daerma.com.conf is my nodeBB forum

That does not even get into what do you do about the ones that you have multiple TLD names for such as .it, .com, .org, etc.

That's an easy fix 🙂

Sweet laptop, post a review when you get it.

Good idea I will.

Solydx is another Xfce distro too.
