Are you running 32-bit or 64-bit rawhide?  I am running 64-bit rawhide (Fedora-Workstation-Rawhide-20200110.n.0.aarch64.raw.xz) on my RPi4.

It works well - mouse, keyboard, sd card, ethernet, basic HDMI are all good.  I did have to add one line to /boot/efi/config.txt:

disable_overscan=1

Without that, I had a black border on my monitor.  Once I added the above line and rebooted, the display looked good.  No accelerated graphics, but that is ok for me right now.

I only want to use the RPI4 as a server with UBI (and this aarch). Are you having 4 GB of usable memory (as a lot of people only get 3 GB)?

I also just read RPI4 HW support is in the just released 5.5 kernel. Wonder if 5.5 will be in rawhide..
