Fedora Fixes

1. Flatpaks missing dark GTK theme

flatpak install org.gtk.Gtk3theme.Adwaita-dark

Also see this article about it.

2. Virtual Manager (KVM) ethernet not working

Open this file and add the following at the end right under #firewall_backend = “nftables”.

firewall_backend  = "iptables"

Restart the libvirtd service.

sudo systemctl restart libvirtd

Now it should work after restarting the VM.

3. NVIDIA drivers

If you have a NVIDIA card, I suggest you follow the steps covered in this tutorial created by Fady Osama.

Fedora Better Fonts

1. Install Microsoft Fonts

sudo dnf install curl cabextract xorg-x11-font-utils fontconfig -y

And then:

sudo rpm -i https://downloads.sourceforge.net/project/mscorefonts2/rpms/msttcore-fonts-installer-2.6-1.noarch.rpm

If you got errors while trying to run the command above, run it with the –nodigest flag. So basically

sudo rpm --nodigest -i ...

2. Enable COPR repository (CURRENTLY NOT WORKING FOR FEDORA 43)

sudo dnf copr enable chriscowleyunix/better_fonts -y

Install these packages:

sudo dnf install fontconfig-font-replacements -y

(Optional) Enable subpixel (rgb) antialiasing:

sudo dnf install fontconfig-enhanced-defaults -y

3. GNOME Tweaks

Make sure to set “Antialiasing” to “Subpixel (for LCD screens)” and “Rendering” to “Slight”.
