I know I'm the one who always runs the old PCs, but I recently decided I
should have one new one in the mix. The one I got has an ASUS Z590-A
motherboard and an Intel i5-10400 processor. Well Fedora won't run a
Wayland session on it. It will only run a Gnome-xorg session. I even
had to run the install from Basic Graphics mode. I asked about it on
AskFedora. I have no useful response yet, but another person wrote about
a similar experience, but different motherboard; the processor was
different, but the same gen and also a UHD type. This needs to be
addressed as all the Intel processors have been UHD for quite a while
now. I'm thinking I should be writing a bug against mutter. Please let
me know if you think I've got something wrong.
In general marketing terms like "UHD" aren't important. If you have a
graphics adapter that isn't properly supported, you know one thing:
that graphics adapter isn't supported. :D Between you and that other
reporter...you know that the two models you have don't work.
I'd recommend you file a bug, not against mutter, but against probably
the kernel (and then CC ajax@xxxxxxxxxx) or xorg-x11-drv-intel (which
isn't technically correct but should find the right people). Include
the information requested in
https://fedoraproject.org
I promised an update on the resolution. As it turns out I won't be
filing a bug report. I bypassed the earlier problems.
I've kept the Intel i5-10400 processor, but exchanged the ASUS Z590-A
mother board for an MSI MPG Z490 motherboard.
There was another issue with this board; it had non-intel network. I
bought an intel based PCI-e to network card and it works great.
Problem solved. I now have an up to date PC and it's working fine. It's
noticeably faster than the 3Ghz Core Duo it replaced :-)
Have a Great Day!
