This is without launching anything. Whereas on Fedora 27, the memory footprint for packagekitd is 0.2%. Fedora 27 ISO I can launch and use Firefox with a VM of 1.5G. I can't with Fedora 28, and the VM reports dozens of: Mar 22 00:47:49 localhost-live org.gnome.Shell.desktop[1707]: Window manager warning: HW cursor for format 875713089 not supported And then just becomes unresponsive. Anyway, tentatively it looks like 1G was a bogus minimum for Fedora 27, where 1.5G would have worked. And for Fedora 28 it needs to be 2G. -- Chris Murphy _______________________________________________ desktop mailing list -- desktop@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to desktop-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
