I use the consoles for development, low overhead, and with screen lots of alternate screens. Also, I do dnf updates from a console without X running. Same idea as only doing updates when the system is going down, though not as robust. And it allows me to see the messages from X as it runs (I start it on a different console than 1), if there are problems. All that said, I think the consoles can be considered as deprecated, as they receive little love from developers, and are slowly being whittled down to inconsequential. _______________________________________________ users mailing list -- users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to users-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/users@lists.fedoraproject.org Do not reply to spam on the list, report it: https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure
