-* Fedora xfce
- :PROPERTIES:
- :CUSTOM_ID: fedora-xfce
- :END:
-Fedora been my go to for quite a while though I sometimes switch
-desktops lmao. I have tried the gnome version but it doesn't really fit
-me so most of the time I have used the kde spin though recently kde just
-haven't been feeling the same. It has been feeling buggy and have been
-fighting with nvidia drivers. After running xfce on my second computer
-for a while I grew to really like it and started using it on my main and
-it have been running much better then kde.\\
-\\
-Fedora xfce can be downloaded
-[[https://fedoraproject.org/spins/xfce][here]].

-Fedora has a little extra setup you wouldn't see in something like linux
-mint though it isn't that bad.

-You can speed up dnf by adding these to /etc/dnf/dnf.conf\\

-The default repos have lots of stuff but you might want an app that
-isn't in it like steam. I know the gnome version has a enable 3rd party
-repos button that does everything I listed here but I am on the xfce
-version and also had to do this on the kde verison.

-- Setup rpm fusion to get more packages in dnf with the
- [[https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/quick-docs/rpmfusion-setup/][resources
- here]]
-- Install flatpak if not already there using "sudo dnf install flatpak"
- then add [[https://flathub.org/setup/Fedora][flathub]] to get some
- cool apps!
-
-*** Multimedia
- :PROPERTIES:
- :CUSTOM_ID: multimedia
- :END:
-By default fedora doesn't have many codecs and you need to install them
-yourself. Without them many media files will not work and lots of
-youtube videos will not be able to play. The fedora docs use to show how
-to install them but they removed it from their page and instead shows a
-new version which installs some stuff but not everything. I do both of
-them to make sure I get all the codecs I need.
-
-- Update your system with =sudo dnf upgrade=
-- Install the new packages with =sudo dnf group install multimedia=
-- Install the old ones with these three commands in a row:
- - =sudo dnf install gstreamer1-plugins-{bad-\*,good-\*,base} gstreamer1-plugin-openh264 gstreamer1-libav --exclude=gstreamer1-plugins-bad-free-devel=
- - =sudo dnf install lame\* --exclude=lame-devel=
- - =sudo dnf swap ffmpeg-free ffmpeg --allowerasing=

-** Nvidia drivers
- :PROPERTIES:
- :CUSTOM_ID: nvidia
- :END:
-Nvidia isn't the best on linux and I like AMD much more though I am
-stuck with nvidia for now. For xfce there are some extra settings to
-enable it but it works great once that is done. You will need rpm fusion
-first before you can install the drivers.
-
-- Follow the fedora docs on nvidia
- [[https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/quick-docs/set-nvidia-as-primary-gpu-on-optimus-based-laptops][here]]
-- Also look at the rpmfusion docs on nvidia
- [[https://rpmfusion.org/Howto/NVIDIA][here]]
-- Follow the archwiki on nvidia in lightdm
- [[https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/NVIDIA_Optimus#LightDM][here]].
-- For multi monitor refresh rate issues add these to your
- /etc/environment\\
- =CLUTTER_DEFAULT_FPS=<refresh rate of your sync monitor> __GL_SYNC_DISPLAY_DEVICE=<monitor to sync to>=\\
- Then open your nvidia settings, go to OpenGL Settings and turn off
- "Allow Flipping".

-Fedora doesn't have "update-grub" so instead you have to use these:\\
