Fedora 41 Beta Upgrade - GNOME Settings and many default apps won't open

haukea · September 19, 2024, 3:59am

I upgraded from F40 to F41 (Workstation/GNOME) this evening and im getting the exact same issues as the user in Fedora 41 beta upgrade feedback - #15 by thephatlee, but I would rather avoid a clean ISO install in part because of a Windows installation I have on the side that I use very occasionally use and I don’t want to potentially hurt it.

Current Issues

Default apps including Software, Files, the new Terminal, and Settings refuse to open.
Save As/Open prompts don’t appear in apps that do work.
Optimus isn’t working (no performance profiles, no “Open with Discrete Graphics” option for apps.

When attempting to run default apps in the terminal this is the most common output:

** Message: 04:49:34.114: Connecting to org.freedesktop.Tracker3.Miner.Files
MESA-INTEL: warning: ../src/intel/vulkan/anv_formats.c:763: FINISHME: support YUV colorspace with DRM format modifiers
MESA-INTEL: warning: ../src/intel/vulkan/anv_formats.c:794: FINISHME: support more multi-planar formats with DRM modifiers
Gdk-Message: 04:49:34.365: Error 71 (Protocol error) dispatching to Wayland display.

Running Software under sudo will force it to run but it won’t respect the dark theme set (unsure if usual behaviour under sudo or not).

Attempting to run sudo gnome-control-center results in the following:
“Running gnome-control-center is only supported under GNOME and Unity, exiting”

Search results for these issues have yet to yield any useful fixes.

Other things tried:

Resetting GNOME config files
Reinstalling Mesa
Reinstalling gnome-control-center
The most obvious operations related to cleaning and updating packages that are provided by dnf.
Uninstalling NVIDIA drivers (other apps such as Obsidian, Steam and sudo gnome-software now refuse to launch)
Ensuring NVIDIA drivers are properly installed and that the drivers are signed (i’m using Secure Boot)

System Components:

Lenovo Legion 5 Pro (2022)
Intel i7-12700H
NVIDIA RTX 3070Ti Mobile
16GB RAM
Optimus Support

The upgrade was done following the Fedora guide on DNF system upgrades

Ill update this as I try more things and collect more data, any help would be greatly appreciated.

issue is NVIDIA related tested on Fedora Workstation 41, Silverblue 41 and each time i enable NVIDIA drivers apps are unusable when disabled NVIDIA everything works

haukea · September 19, 2024, 4:17am

I’m currently debugging so I can’t say for sure but I just tried uninstalling the NVIDIA drivers and it’s actually made things worse - a bunch of apps that used to run (Steam, Obsidian, GNOME Software using sudo gnome-software) now refuse to.

i didint uninstall anything just disabled nvidia from loading and using mesa/nouevue

Good to know, but it appears my computer is using nouveau:

thephatlee · September 19, 2024, 4:24am

did you try this

sudo rpm-ostree kargs --delete=rd.driver.blacklist=nouveau --delete=modprobe.blacklist=nouveau --delete=nvidia-drm.modeset=1

haukea · September 19, 2024, 4:25am

It says, “command not found” :S

thephatlee · September 19, 2024, 4:25am

my bad it is silverblue command use dnf

haukea · September 19, 2024, 4:28am

I appreciate the assistance, but swapping out for rm-ostree with dnf just reports ‘kargs’ as an unknown argument. I’m afraid I’m relatively new to Linux and don’t have a lot of familiarity with different sets of commands or their use cases, so i’d need the specific command for Workstation.

computersavvy · September 19, 2024, 3:39pm

sudo grubby --update-kernel=ALL --remove-args="rd.driver.blacklist=nouveau modprobe.blacklist=nouveau nvidia-drm.modeset=1" would be the equivalent command for a normal (non-atomic) system.

However, that should not necessarily be required. It is the equivalent of using a sledge hammer to drive a tack and should only be done after other troubleshooting has proven it to be required.

Please post the output of dnf list installed '*nvidia*', and sudo dmesg | grep -iE "nouveau|nvidia|secure"

haukea · September 19, 2024, 9:50pm

Thanks for the response.

I tried the following when the NVIDIA drivers were found and noticed the blacklist:

[    0.030874] Kernel command line: BOOT_IMAGE=(hd1,gpt7)/vmlinuz-6.11.0-63.fc41.x86_64 root=UUID=cb35d45e-476b-4db9-9417-a4f3b0e8796a ro rootflags=subvol=root rhgb quiet rd.driver.blacklist=nouveau modprobe.blacklist=nouveau

So i uninstalled the drivers and used the command you provided.

Once done I restarted the computer. The issue with opening default GNOME applications remains, though the dnf list command shows no installed NVIDIA packages and the second command shows no nouveau blacklist.

The second command results in the following )cut some of the recurring text at the end and middle due to post length limitations):

If dnf list installed '*nvidia*' showed no results then something was done incorrectly when removing the drivers.

For most nvidia gpus it is necessary to have the firmware installed so that command should have shown the nvidia-gpu-firmware package. It may be reinstalled using sudo dnf install nvidia-gpu-firmware

Without the firmware even the nouveau driver may not properly support the gpu and it seems from the messages you posted that might be the case.

You have secure boot enabled,
[ 0.000000] secureboot: Secure boot enabled
and in that situation the only way to enable the nvidia drivers for loading is to follow the steps in the file /usr/share/doc/akmods/README.secureboot. If that is completed before you install the nvidia drivers from rpmfusion then the modules will be properly signed when they are installed and rebooting should allow them to load.

My suggestion is simple.

follow the steps in /usr/share/doc/akmods/README.secureboot to enroll the local signing key into bios
install both the missing firmware package and the nvidia driver packages
sudo dnf install nvidia-gpu-firmware akmod-nvidia xorg-x11-drv-nvidia-cuda
wait at least 5 minutes for the driver modules to be properly installed then reboot.
Verify the nvidia driver is now loaded with lsmod | grep nvidia

If step 4 confirms the driver is loaded then problems caused by the driver (or lack of) now should be resolved.

Thanks for letting me know about nvidia-gpu-firmware, while I always have the NVIDIA drivers installed it’s good to know about this for debugging purposes.

As for the secure boot process, I already signed them when I got started with Fedora 40, and as I followed the instructions the public/private keys already exist and upon using sudo mokutil --import /etc/pki/akmods/certs/public_key.der it outputs SKIP: /etc/pki/akmods/certs/public_key.der is already enrolled.

Unless I have to create a new key pair and assign it every time the drivers are uninstalled this shouldn’t be an issue, NVIDIA drivers are successfully used when they are installed.

computersavvy · September 20, 2024, 12:17am

Once the key has been created and enrolled it does not normally need replaced unless you do a new clean install of fedora. The key remains and is used to sign the driver modules when they are reinstalled.

haukea · September 20, 2024, 12:18am

The clarification is much appreciated ^-^

The drivers have been reinstalled and using lsmod | grep nvidia results in the following output:

nvidia_drm            135168  0
nvidia_modeset       1650688  1 nvidia_drm
nvidia_uvm           6852608  0
nvidia              72577024  7 nvidia_uvm,nvidia_modeset
nvidia_wmi_ec_backlight    12288  0
drm_ttm_helper         16384  2 nvidia_drm,xe
video                  81920  5 nvidia_wmi_ec_backlight,ideapad_laptop,xe,i915,nvidia_modeset
wmi                    36864  4 video,nvidia_wmi_ec_backlight,wmi_bmof,ideapad_laptop

The issues unfortunately still remain.

computersavvy · September 20, 2024, 12:30am

since you seem to experience the similar results with both nouveau and nvidia it seems the drivers probably are not the issue but something else.

Have you done a full sudo dnf upgrade --refresh since the upgrade to f41?

haukea · September 20, 2024, 12:36am

I’m pretty sure I did at some point after following the guide (I followed this guide for doing an upgrade - Upgrading Fedora Linux Using DNF System Plugin :: Fedora Docs), but I have done the command again and it found some extra package updates.

Installed, restarted the computer, same issue . I used the command after the restart again just to check and it’s up to date.

EDIT - I should mention that while I can verify the NVIDIA drivers are working by booting up a complex 3D game, Optimus isn’t actually working (no performance profiles, no “Open using Discrete Graphics” option for apps).

thephatlee · September 20, 2024, 3:03am

wild thing to test since i know my nvidia drivers are working but apps dont work unless i reove the MOK signing key and then all apps work could you test

haukea · September 20, 2024, 10:41am

I tried it just in case and it “”“kind of”“” fixes it.

Sometimes the apps still don’t appear to open.
The second time I tried to launch Files and Software it took literal minutes, I was surprised when they sprung up on my desktop. After this the apps were still quite slow to open.
Software only opens in Light Mode even if my theme is set to Dark Mode.

I need the NVIDIA drivers for 3D-intensive tasks so this isn’t really a stopgap solution for me unfortunately, though it’s good that the problem can be pinpointed.

thephatlee · September 20, 2024, 11:56am

Same reason i moved back to F40
