If it’s too much of a headache, I can just wipe the partition and install something else, or just reinstall fedora I guess.

Correct me if I’m wrong but I think Newton had stated that his chastity was a result of him attempting to emulate his biggest role model – Jesus Christ. (Could’ve also been a safe excuse)
It would be cool as hell if he was actually gay though… I’ll just imagine he was :P

I’m specifying the release server manually as directed in the fedora docs for upgrading editions. That’s what I followed

Totally understandable, just look at that god damn jaw 🥵

1·2 months agoWell the thing is, I’ve done this exact same operation on my own machine. It has managed to hold stable from F38 to F42.
But I’ve had to deal with similar annoyances since when I installed it on this particular laptop.

3·2 months agoI decided Fedora since I use it myself, so I figured it’d be easier to debug. I think I’ll pave the install and replace it with debian based mint if nothing works (I’ve made a separate partition for critical files)
When you say you did it manually, what do you mean exactly?
I meant that instead of doing it the “safe” GUI way, I simply did it by CLI, with the instructions available at the fedora docs
Huh, that’s a neater way to look at it!

Huh. I should check again
It doesn’t work for me on SwayWM, maybe KDE does something else under the hood?
Edit: lol Sorry, I mistook xrandr for brightnessctl. (I had aliased xrandr brightness change commands to “brightness” in my shell)
