Hi,
I have just upgraded to F31 from F30 using dnf system-upgrade
download --releasever=31. Before I did the upgrade I updated F30 to the
latest maintenance level.
When I booted into Gnome on F31 there was no activities menu to be
able to launch any application, the only way I could launch applications
(if I knew the application command) was to use alt-f2.
In F30 I was using dash-to-dock but in the F31 upgrade that failed
to start. I did find an entry on the net saying that V66 of dash-to-dock
had an issue in F31 with kde (plasma) but no reference to issues with
Gnome. I was able to run Gnome-tweaks, see that it was flagging that it
couldn't start dash-to-dock, the dash-to-dock settings were saying that
it was V66, so I used gnome tweaks to uninstall it. I then used
dnfdragora to install V67 of dash-to-dock when confirmed the V67 was
installed and V66 wasn't, but when I went back into gnome-tweeks it was
still saying that it was trying to start V66 of dash-to-dock. I
eventually found that I had to remove all the gnome-shell extension
settings in my home path, use dnf to uninstall dash-to-dock V67 and
reinstall it for Gnome-tweaks to show that it was successfully able to
start dash-to-dock V67. Also after doing this when I launched firefox it
immediately asked me asked me if I wanted to update all my extensions
from upstream except for dash-to-dock, which I did and that then
activated all the extensions even though at update they weren't active.
When I launch firefox V73.0a1 it displays with two windows
overlapping each other displaying the same contents, forms being
displayed on the screen are not displaying correctly in terms of when
input is entered into text boxes the input is actually being displayed
below the text boxes. Also the address bar keeps flashing on and off
because the display of the web page being accessed is intermittently
overlaying the address bar, consequently I can't actually select any
menus displayed on the web page. Just for interest Thunderbird V73.0a1
doesn't seem to exhibit these issues. If I run the version of firefox
from the repositories it exhibits the same overlay issues as well.
When I run Gnome-terminal it exhibits the dual window overlay issue
when maximised. If I run Gnome-terminal unmaximised it doesn't exhibit
the issue, but if I manually expand the size of the gnome-terminal
window it exhibits the overlay issue as soon as I type anything into the
window.
I tried reinstalling Gnome by re-installing the 'Gnome Desktop
Environment' group from dnf but that did not make any difference.
Does anyone have any ideas what the issue might be?
If I run dnf system-upgrade download --releasever=30 will that
downgrade me to a fully working version of F30 as it was before I did
the F31 upgrade?
regards,
Steve
