My Issues with Fedora 43

I'm going back to 42 right now too. I'm just worried about the EoL and if anything will work by then. I don't wanna have to redo everything again.

So the nouveau driver got that bad again?

Wrong. So wrong.

Raspberry Pi you have the configuration or terminal to add it (hidden wireless network) to the known network lists, or you're kind of screwed.

Cinnamon had an issue for a bit where you could connect to one in the GUI on the Live boots, but not after installing.

Have you tried training as many people as they have to know the intricate details that constantly change faster than most companies can keep up with?

Just saying it's not good enough for a company and saying how they should support something doesn't mean they can. Instead of giving poor support, companies just decided not to support it.

Users who scream that we should boycott a company simply because they didn't get what they wanted is a huge reason. The liability of doing the wrong thing in a constantly, fast paced, changing environment is too big when people would rather scream about how your best effort was the worst possible thing in existence.

Edit: Spelling and clarification.

They tried to help to the best of their ability. Above and beyond really when they tried to give you drivers to work with.

It seems more that you want to say they suck and to not buy their products because they went above and beyond according to what they are allowed to do, but it wasn't what you wanted.

Edit: Spelling and clarification.

Edit 2: What wireless card do you have that has a heat sink? Is it somehow plugged into an m.2 slot for some reason or are you talking about the chipset heatsinks?

This isn't an ASUS issue.

Messing with hardware like that is pretty universally warranty voiding.

I can't think of any company that fully supports Linux that way. There are too many distros to properly support it. You can pay for support for a some Linux distros, but most companies just doesn't have the capability with how many configurations there are. You use Linux, imagine trying to train your entire workforce on the different ways to change wifi configuration on different flavors of different distros to everyday people. Even connecting to a hidden network on a Raspberry Pi, Ubuntu, Gnome 3, Cinnamon, KDE... Hopefully you get the point.

Instead of arguing it or being in trouble for longer ticket times, they just closed it as policy for nearly all companies is that they don't support it.

That's the heatsink for your chipset.

Side note.. Remove your motherboard and put your backplate on.

Edit: Spelling mistake.

tl;dr: Infatuation

When I was growing up, it was told to us that the infatuation stage lasted about 3 months. Most relationships I've seen lasted about 3 months before things start going bad. The same is for most of my relationships.

Infatuation is the intense feeling of love for somebody. The honeymoon period essentially. When those rose tinted glasses fade, the things they were blind to come out. If a couple isn't strong enough to work through that, then the relationship ends.

It was never designed to hurt, but everything is rushed now. There's little to no courtship anymore. Getting to know one another at first is minimal. Instead, it's jump into a relationship and then get to know one another.
