Re: shrinking Windows C: drive to make room for Linux
None of the hits I got from search made explicit that one could shrink the C: partition even while it was in use. They focused on getting around Windows shrink's liomitations. From the list responses, I gather that one can indeed srink the C: partition while it is in use. -- Michael henne...@mail.cs.ndsu.nodak.edu "Occasionally irrational explanations are required" -- Luke Roman ___ users mailing list -- users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to users-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/users@lists.fedoraproject.org Do not reply to spam, report it: https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure/new_issue

Re: Help needed: disabling system wide the Caps lock key in GNOME/Xwayland
Gnome tweaks has a simple solution to this. Install Tweaks through "Software" or dnf install gnome-tweaks Run Tweaks and go to the "Keyboard and Mouse" section. The 4th option down is an "Additional Layout options" button. There are many things you can remap the CapsLock key to, like Esc, ctrl, or my preference a Super key, since I usually use an IBM model M keyboard which does not have one. No need to revert back to X11, or any kind of hardware solution.

As near as I can tell (the last time I looked, anyway), wayland has completely eviscerated all the ability to tweak keys and mouse buttons.
