I posted something earlier about Firefox and flatpaks, and
after setting up my Firefox settings using the Fedora flatpak,
I realized that I had the same video-codec issue that others had written about.
Realizing that all of that was all over my head, I removed Firefox and reinstalled
the Flathub version, and all the video stuff seems to work.
Please do not shoot the messenger. I realize Fedora has
ideology about FOSS. So I answered one of my earlier questions. There
are reasons not to use the Fedora flatpak of Firefox, as I was able to get the
repository version to work.
Disclaimer: I am in Rawhide and maybe some of the rpmfusion stuff for
Rawhide still has some kinks in it. Right ?
On a totally different note,
I purposely purchased a new X570 ASUS motherboard
without wi-fi, because of my unpleasant experience with Broadcom wi-fi
on my previous motherboards.
I purchased the ASUS PCE-AX58BT add-in card, and installed that
and whah-laa, my wi-f worked without having to do anything. It is
an expensive card, and I do not know if I am getting all the potential
of the card, as far as wi-fi speeds. I did an internet speed test,
( using my motels crappy wi-fi ) and it was a decent speed
( download 98 / upload 46 ). One advantage to going this route, is
that I could potentially upgrade my wi-fi in the future, if a new card came out with
wi-fi 7 or wi-fiXT, LOL ! And they are relatively easy to install if you have a spacious
case and a free slot. However, they might distract from the display of your
video card, if you wanting to show off your fancy new ASUS RTX 3080.
