@stacksofplates said in Shuter issue on Fedora 27 Cinnamon:

Are you using Xorg? It doesn’t work with Wayland (at least the last time I tried it).

Cinnamon Desktop still uses Xorg.

Ah ok.

Well crap, I never added pictures to step 2.
I will try to get to that later this afternoon.

@black3dynamite said in How to run JNLP files on Fedora Cinnamon with Firefox:

In Chrome, selecting "Always Open Files of This Type" doesn't work?

You are not allowed to select that for JNLP files in Chrome.

Google and Oracle bickering takes a toll on end users 😞

Chrome is easy to install but isn't included in Fedora. Here is the quick and effective way to do it.

WTF?

sudo dnf install -y https://dl.google.com/linux/direct/google-chrome-stable_current_x86_64.rpm

That doesn't include the repo so it can easily update via dnf does it? Although chrome generally updated by itself so you may not need that functionality.

@NerdyDad said in Updating Fedora 26 to Fedora 27 with DNF:

How often to you upgrade versus fresh install? Fresh install every other release? Any kind of best practice on this?

You can avoid compatibility with packages by using more flatpak apps instead.

Flatpak is not ready for prime time.

Why not?

And that's funny that you said prime time.

There's a post from Flatpak with prime time in the title.

Flatpak 1.0 Released, Ready for Prime Time
https://www.flatpak.org/press/2018-08-20-flatpak-1.0/

And @scottalanmiller coukd say sodiumsuite is awesome and ready for the masses. Still doesn’t make it true.

Kind of interesting, handy to have a simple way to get real RHEL, I guess.

After a few days, Fedora 27 is running nice & smooth...no crashes yet.
Everything I used on F26 is working fine.

There have been a few F27 updates.
Gnome is now v3.26.1
Kernel is 4.13.9-300
Firefox is Quantum v57.0b11
