I know this belongs in bugzilla, but I don't really understand which component is the problem. I'm running from the live iso. When attempting to run dnfdragora from System->Administration->dnfdragora on the panel , nothing appears to happen. When run from a terminal, I get the following:

Your assumption is correct. My desktop PC is an HP EliteDesk G2 Mini with two USB drives (one HDD, one SSD) typically hanging off of it. Both external drives as well as the internal drive are bootable. Each drive has its own ESP. No problem booting one of the external drives on any of my

In the Mate DE, selecting Startup Applications in the Control Center and checking Login sound brings up the Edit Startup Programs window. In the command window I've entered "mpv /home/a/.config/autostart/login.mp3" (without the quotes) where /home/a/.config/autostart/login.mp3 is the sound file

Although I haven't entirely given up looking at different distros, I don't do nearly as much sampling as I used to. My current desktop hardware is well-supported by Fedora. Except for Waterfox Classic, if it's not in the Fedora or RPM Fusion repo, I typically don't want or need it.

You can't compare Mageia 8 to Fedora 34 yet at distrowatch, but you can compare M8 to Rawhide (or F33) https://distrowatch.com/dwres.php?firstlist=mageia=fedora=1=compare-packages=0 ___ users mailing list -- users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe

It's a binary ready to go once unpacked. WC is a FF-57 type browser, and uses the old FF add-ons. User-agent-switcher doesn't satisfy my bank, even when I disable or remove uBlockOrigin and NoScript, although it helps with many other sites. Speed-wise, I don't notice any obvious speed

I've been using Waterfox-Classic as my main browser for a few years now, but keep Falkon around for those times when WC just won't cut it. My bank's website doesn't like WC, but most random sites seem to accept it. No rpm, but no problem with dependencies.
