Ask Fedora

Common Issues Commonly-encountered problems for current releases of Fedora Linux, and (if available) fixes or workarounds for these issues. Look at these first, before filing a bug. Use the tags to narrow down the list to a particular Fedora version or some specific area. Ask in Other Languages For discussions and troubleshooting issues in any non-English language. Tag questions with the appropriate language. You can subscribe to language tags you are interested in, and mute language tags for those you don’t speak or don’t want to follow. Start Here Have questions? Get answers here! Ask anything about installing, using, troubleshooting, customizing, or upgrading any variant of Fedora Linux.
