I have used Fedup to upgrade Fedora every release from F18 to F21, and it has worked flawlessly except for F21. I use the nvidia proprietary driver, both the kmod binary version and the akmod source version, and I had all sorts of problems with them after Fedup in F21 for the first time. The binary driver was not upgraded to a version supporting the initial F21 kernel even though an upgrade was available and at boot time the akmod version was not compiled into the kernel. I had to run a dnf upgrade command after the Fedup process to get the right version of the kmod driver for the kernel version. The other issue I have since running Fedup, relative to the nvidia module, the F21 upgrade has installed both debug and non-debug versions of the kernel such that the nvidia drivers both the binary version and the compiled source code version cannot be installed into the debug kernel but can be installed into the non-debug kernel, and Fedora, in my opinion have stupidly, made the debug kernel version the default kernel (and I haven't found any info from net searches on how to change this so that with any future upgrades of the kernel the default kernel will always be the non-debug version. If I want to use the debug version then I will select that from the Advanced Options submenu). I have also queried in another thread around plymouth not working properly, but this is no different to F20.Ed Greshko wrote:On 12/22/14 19:53, Timothy Murphy wrote:I'd be happier if there were some evidence that the Fedup developers were keeping a note of problems.Of course that would only come about if the folks having problems would be so kind as to file bugzillas.I agree that would be good. (I did actually file a bugzilla for one of my two Fedup problems.) But I think a simple survey - "How did your Fedup go?" - would be good too. I guess 80% would just say "Fine", but it might be worth knowing what problems the other 20% encountered.
