Is there any speech-to-text software usable in a Fedora Linux environment?
Much thanks,

Just last night I finished my re-installation of Fedora 37 specifically to run Whisper https://github.com/openai/whisper
Hardware:
- AMD Ryzen 7 1700 with 32GB RAM
- NVIDIA 1080 with 8GB
Software
- Fedora 37 installation with XFCE
- rpmFusion
- packages: ffmpeg, conda, python3.9, and nvidia X drivers (xorg-x11-
drv-nvidia-cuda.x86_64 xorg-x11-drv-nvidia-power)
Steps to configure
- Had to use a graphical target, even without a monitor attached to the
computer
- created a conda environment with python 3.9
- pytorch (https://pytorch.org/get-started/locally/) with cuda 11.7
- whisper setup: pip install -U openai-whisper
I am able to transcribe an hour program in about 30 minutes
I'll help where I can, but no promises. I've installed this only once.

Just curious, why did you have to reinstall F37 specifically to run Whisper?
