Hi Kevin,
Do you or anyone know if gpm works on these rpi touchscreens in console-tty?
Not currently.
And/Or question 2:
F29 aarch are .xz, need I have fedora installed say x86-64, to have dnf (?) to write the
aarch image for rpi 3 B+?
Or, is there a writable .iso available instead of the f29.aarch.xz?
Please read the docs and start a new thread if they don't answer your questions.
