Hi All,
Is it possible to upgrade FC25 to FC31?
Any special instructions? Or just the usual?
Many thanks,

odd screen behavior during screen saver / idle
by S.Bob
All;
I have a new Lenovo P73 laptop, have had it for about 2 weeks so It's
the latest model / hardware specs are below:
I've noticed every once in awhile, very inconsistently I return to the
laptop, move the mouse to unlock the screen saver and find that the main
laptop screen is all scrunched onto 1/2 of the screen, split vertically
and the right half of the screen is black. The full desktop is shown but
it's all squished into the left half of the screen. Only a reboot seems
to fix it.
Thanks in advance for any help

Fedora 30, vagrant and VirtualBox
by Martín Marqués
Hi,
I just noticed that there's some mismatch with the version of vagrant for
my Fedora 30 and the version of VirtualBox I have:
```
The provider 'virtualbox' that was requested to back the machine
'ironman' is reporting that it isn't usable on this system. The
reason is shown below:
Vagrant has detected that you have a version of VirtualBox installed
that is not supported by this version of Vagrant. Please install one of
the supported versions listed below to use Vagrant:
4.0, 4.1, 4.2, 4.3, 5.0, 5.1, 5.2, 6.0
A Vagrant update may also be available that adds support for the version
you specified. Please check www.vagrantup.com/downloads.html to download
the latest version.
```
I don't see any updated in the *testing repos. Ahi idea why we got this
mismatch?

how to reconfigure gnome from scratch
by Jon LaBadie
I've been using mate as my DM on Fedora for years.
For about the same number of I've been unable to
login to a gnome session. I've go no need except
curiosity. But everytime I select gnome (Xorg,
classic, Wayland, ...) the screen blanks and I
get a full screen literally saying "Opps,
something went wrong".
I can create a new user and login to a gnome
session, so the software is there and functional.
I'm assuming it is something in my configuration
files. But I've been unable to delete the correct
combination of .dirs and files.
The situation has persisted from about F23 or F24
through F31. Across 2 new computers where I copied
my home directory to the new systems.
What must I delete to make my user look like a first
time gnome user?
Thanks, stay well,
Jon

Is distrowatch.com giving a good and reliable ranking of all the Linux
distros in the world?
NO.
It only counts the times THEY refer tot he DL-site.
If you go directly (or via any search engine) to the distro-DL-site, it won't take it into acoount
Neither if an image is redistributed in any form.
It is a nice indicator, but ONLY for the users of distrowatch, no more and no less,

gnucash / flatpak / flathub related
by David
I subtly mentioned in my last post, that I did not have the new version of
gnucash
installed natively, but instead as a flatpak from flathub.
However, I just tested the gnucash flatpak version, and it did not work, so
I removed the flatpak of gnucash.
I natively installed the new gnucash, and it seems to work nominally.

Thanks to you and Samuel for pointing me to it.
Now that I know where it is, I was able to come up with the appropriate
keywords to allow Google to find it for me.
And/or, now that I've found it, Google 'knows' that's what I've been looking
for all along and now and gives it to me again.
Either way... thanks!
