qt5-qtwebengine available
by Dan Horák 04 Oct '22

04 Oct '22

Hi all, thanks to the work the community does on porting the Chromium browser to ppc64le, we can have also the qt5-qtwebengine library available. Currently there are ~20 packages that are excluded on ppc64le due the unavailability of the webengine. My "talos" COPR repository [1] contains now the main qt5-qtwebengine package, pyqtwebengine bindings for Python and also the qmapshack app. Building calibre fails in a test, investigating now. If there are other apps you would like to be made available, let me know. The plan is to merge the ppc64le support into the official Fedora rpms, but it can take some time and depends on support from the maintainers of the QT stack.

by Karl 02 Sep '20

Hello Dan, since Gradio (I can't listen to radio stations anymore) has been discontinued I would like to suggest Shortwave as a replacement: https://gitlab.gnome.org/World/Shortwave I tried to compile it myself, but unfortunately I get this error: https://pastebin.com/iHuhYz4L sqlite-3.33.0-1.fc32.ppc64le is already installed.

Crackling sound since Kernel 5.6.x
by Karl 01 Sep '20

01 Sep '20

Hello to all, I have this hardware: https://wiki.raptorcs.com/wiki/User:MPC7500 Since Kernel 5.6.x I have crackling sound (I’m using the Radeon for sound output). It sounds similar when the speech-dispatcher is active. On Kernel 5.4 I have to remove the speech-dispatcher (this pops-up from time to time) to get a crystal clear sound. See link to the Kernel 5.4 alsa-info.sh output and Kernel 5.6 alsa-info.sh output: Kernel 5.4: http://alsa-project.org/db/?f=a51d43c18273c3c79d4341e251a32542e2ee3714 Kernel 5.6: https://alsa-project.org/db/?f=97cd639a2a416f2a5875b7534dd39ce38c36bd93 Maybe it has something to do with this? https://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=news_item&px=Linux-5.6-Sound This problem I have also an F32. Everything is fine with 5.4. How can I localize the problem? Any help is appreciated Karl P. S. I’m new to Linux so I sadly can’t bisecting a bug til now.

Kernel 5.7.X Fedora 32 with Navi 10
by Maurizio M 29 Aug '20

29 Aug '20

Good morning guys, I didn't write to you until now because I thought that in the end the problem would be solved because it was known for a long time but I see that unfortunately still today it was not. I'm referring to the Kernel in version 5.7 that since it came out, for us users of AMD RAdeon 5700/5700 XT Navi 10, has never worked. This time I'm not the one making the mistake because I also saw on Twitter, that other users complain about the same problem. Even sometimes it doesn't even load but it freezes first. Until now that we are at version 5.7.15, unfortunately the problem remains, what should we do at this point? Wait for 5.8 to arrive or will you be able to solve this problem first, which I think you know well because they will have informed you before me? Thank you
