Is there an update in regard to the support of Snapdragons?
I am running Ubuntu on Lenovo T14s Snapdragon X Elite and I am wondering if Fedora is the better choice.

It’s still largely a work in progress right now.
Things continue to land in the upstream kernel, but Fedora won’t work
out of the box yet.
I’m running rawhide on my slim7x with a patched kernel
( kevin/x1e80100kernel Copr )
and a tweaked grub config to load the correct devicetree file.
Most things work now, but the camera is still not working.
So, if you don’t want to do a bunch of tinkering, probibly best to wait
a bit more.

So, I am waiting for F42 with 6.12 Kernel? Isnt this already out?
If not, do you know where we can we see the timeline?
I don’t know if there’s any timeline. In addition to the kernel support,
support for loading the right devicetree needs to land. There’s lots of
discussions around that, but nothing has really been setup in fedora
space
It’s one week til beta release.
But I cannot see or find any related information.
This fedora is a bit a blackbox.
Checking for older releases and beta releases: Nothing. The internet does not contain any related material.
Because there’s not much news to share sadly…
There’s more upstream support landing, but still some signficant issues
before there would be anything fedora would call ‘supported’.
The next big hurdle is someone coming up with a way to detect and load
the right devicetree file for these devices instead of having to pass
it manually. I’m happy to help any folks doing that, but I don’t have
the time or expertise to write something myself.
Sorry things are moving slower than you might like, but thats
sometimes the case in the open source world. ;(
Is there no such a project like Ubuntu 24.10 Concept?
They have updates to be tested and the latest versions do make my Lenovo run stable enough for a daily work.
Nope, there’s nothing like that in fedora that I am aware of.
