There has been 4.3 final built for f24, maybe it's worth a try ? http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/packageinfo?packageID=8 -- users mailing list users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?

I updated one system and switched from the nVidia drivers back to nouveau. Basically things run well, that is unless you want to view mp4 videos using things like vlc or mplayer. Those packages are available from updates-testing of rpmfusion but when you run them you get only audio and this error message. Failed to open VDPAU backend libvdpau_nouveau.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory [vdpau] Error when calling vdp_device_create_x11: 1 That system is pretty much a test system. At the moment I've no plans to upgrade my "work" to F23 unless things get resolved or I decide to go through the exercise of downgrading Xorg server. -- In reality, some people should stick to running Windows and others should stay away from computers altogether. -- users mailing list users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?

With my old Lenovo R60 laptop with Fedora 22, it has been working with the 4.2.3 kernel, but the new 4.2.5 has the boot menu come up, but after selecting it, a couple of lines flash on the screen, and then the screen goes out completely black. Can select the previous kernel. Currently in PI, was suppose to be in Bali for Harley Davidson conventions but got on plane, and had to get off after volcano, so stuck in an unplanned hotel with 10 others from Guam making the trip. Internet is ok, but just haven't had time to read all the fedora list messages, Not getting updates on what status is, but latest is the airport will be opned today finally, and we will get out tonight to get the last day of convention. > I can work around this by using the old 4.1 kernel > in fedora 22, but there is no 4.1 kernel for > fedora 23. > > Then in Fedora 23 at work, I can't use the nvidia > binary drivers because fedora shipped a beta > version of the X server, and I can't use nouveau > because it will only work on maxwell cards when > nvidia gives nouveau some way to distribute and > load the firmware required.

Fedora is killing me with video
First this stupid bug crops up in 4.2 kernels and pulls a gauze film over my screen at home where I use Intel graphics and a Samsung TV as a display: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=92206 I can work around this by using the old 4.1 kernel in fedora 22, but there is no 4.1 kernel for fedora 23. Then in Fedora 23 at work, I can't use the nvidia binary drivers because fedora shipped a beta version of the X server, and I can't use nouveau because it will only work on maxwell cards when nvidia gives nouveau some way to distribute and load the firmware required. So I have to force vesa mode (which is not very useful on a UHD monitor :-). It is looking like it will be a long time before I can actually run fedora 23 by default both at home and at work... -- users mailing list users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
