Fedora 40

Post Installation

System, Drivers, and Apps

• Always update the system after a fresh installation:

$ sudo dnf update

• Remove unwanted software. I usually remove gnome-tours and snapshot (camera app) at a minimum.

$ sudo dnf remove gnome-tours snapshot

• Replace gnome-terminal with gnome-console:

$ sudo dnf swap gnome-terminal gnome-console

• Install useful gnome utilities:

$ sudo dnf install gnome-extensions-app gnome-tweaks

• Install CLI tools used frequently:

$ sudo dnf install vim htop distrobox

• (Optional) Enable fractional scaling:

$ gsettings set org.gnome.mutter experimental-features "['scale-monitor-framebuffer']"

• (Optional) Install System76 drivers:

$ dnf copr enable szydell/system76

$ dnf update && dnf install system76-io-dkms system76-power firmware-manager

• (Optional) Enable System76 power:
