I wonder if the situation has changed substantially since last August. What well-supported options are there now? In the meantime, I had access to a hi-DPI device with a touchscreen, running GNOME and KDE, and I wasn't very impressed with the user experience. At least a lot of configuration is needed, and maybe some coding. :-( -- users mailing list users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?

When running the profile that doesn't play the videos, are you able to see the videos choosing html5 from this link: https://www.youtube.com/html5 ?

Jon No! :( Nevertheless, I did find the cause of the problem. It was an addon that I rarely used. If I used it, I used it in only one of the profiles. The add-on is YouTube ALL HTML5 2.1.3 After I uninstalled it and restarted, then youtube played normally. I removed it also from the 2nd profile. Thanx.

dnf metalink issue: Fedora Updates repo
Hello, Everyone If I run "dnf upgrade" with the "metalink" line uncommented in "/etc/yum.repos.d/fedora-updates.repo", the result is as follows: [root@afolkey2 ~]# dnf upgrade rpm.livna.org for 20 - x86_64 3.8 kB/s | 3.4 kB 00:00 Fedora 20 - x86_64 - VirtualBox 168 kB/s | 52 kB 00:00 Open source multiplatform video transcoder 28 kB/s | 7.2 kB 00:00 RPM Fusion for Fedora 20 - Free - Updates 1.6 MB/s | 480 kB 00:00 RPM Fusion for Fedora 20 - Nonfree - Updates599 kB/s | 172 kB 00:00 Adobe Systems Incorporated 12 kB/s | 1.8 kB 00:00 rpm.livna.org for 20 - x86_64 - Source6.5 kB/s | 1.9 kB 00:00 google-chrome - 64-bit49 kB/s | 3.7 kB 00:00 Then, after a few minutes of no apparent activity, the following happens: Error: Failed to synchronize cache for repo 'updates' from 'https://mirrors.fedoraproject.org/metalink?repo=updates-released-f20&arch=x86_64': Cannot download repomd.xml: Cannot download repodata/repomd.xml: All mirrors were tried In that example, "dnf upgrade" fails. If I run "yum upgrade", the result is as follows: Loaded plugins: auto-update-debuginfo, langpacks updates/20/x86_64/metalink| 14 kB 00:00:00 updates| 4.9 kB 00:00:00 http://mirror.symnds.com/distributions/fedora/updates/20/x86_64/repodata/repomd.xml: [Errno -1] repomd.xml does not match metalink for updates Trying other mirror. After that last message, a similar message is displayed for each mirror. In that example, "yum update" succeeds. BUT, it I comment out "metalink=https://mirrors.fedoraproject.org/metalink?repo=updates-released-f$releasever&arch=$basearch"; in "/etc/yum.repos.d/fedora-updates.repo" and un-comment "baseurl=http://download.fedoraproject.org/pub/fedora/linux/updates/$releasever/$basearch/";, "dnf upgrade" and "yum update" proceed normally. Is anyone else having this issue? I have checked this list for the past few days for this issue, and I have not seen it mentioned. To sum this up, if I use "baseurl" instead of "metalink" in "/etc/yum.repos.d/fedora-updates.repo" "dnf upgrade" succeeds. If I use "metalink" instead of "baseurl" in "/etc/yum.repos.d/fedora-updates.repo" "dnf upgrade" fails. Thank you, Steven P.
