Perguntas frequentes (FAQ)

Sobre o projeto

É Equipe Silverblue, Silverblue ou Fedora Silverblue?

We chose the name Team Silverblue to refer to the overall project. Fedora Silverblue will be used for the OS that we are producing, but calling it Silverblue in its short version is fine as well.

Por que o logotipo do Silverblue parece uma folha?

Our favorite choice for a project name was Silverleaf, but that sadly did not work out. We just couldn’t quite let go of the leaf. You could also say that Silverblue is a new leaf on Fedora’s OSTree. 😀

Silverblue é outro GNOME OS?

GNOME OS was a codename that was used by the upstream GNOME project for a while to refer to the idea of designing the entire desktop user experience. By contrast, Silverblue is an effort inside the Fedora project, and will be built with existing Fedora technologies. However, the two efforts do share a desire to deliver a user experience that is polished and coherent.

What is Fedora Silverblue’s relationship with Fedora Kinoite, Fedora IoT and Fedora CoreOS?

Fedora Silverblue uses the same core technology as Fedora Kinoite, Fedora IoT and Fedora CoreOS. However, Fedora Silverblue is specifically focused on workstation and desktop use cases with the GNOME desktop environment.

About using Fedora Silverblue

Como posso reproduzir mais vídeos no Firefox, como o YouTube?

Firefox is included in the OS image for now (see issue#288 for progress on moving to Flatpak by default). Until that changes, getting it to play videos works the same way as it does for the regular Fedora Workstation: find a package with the needed codecs, and install it. The one difference is that you use rpm-ostree install instead of dnf install. An alternative solution is to install Firefox from Flathub.

Como eu crio uma conexão VPN?

/etc is not part of the immutable OS image, so you can just copy files into /etc/NetworkManager/system-connections (or let NetworkManager store them there when you recreate your connections). Certificates in /etc/pki need to be handled similarly.

How can I install my preferred IDE on Fedora Silverblue?

You can install most IDE directly in a toolbox where you can also install all the developments tools from the Fedora repositories. To be able to launch them directly from menus, you can copy the .desktop file for the IDE from the toolbox to your home directory in ~/.local/share/applications/. You should then update the Exec line in the .desktop file to prepend toolbox run to start it from the toolbox. You can also use the IDEs packaged as Flatpaks from Flathub.

Como posso ver quais pacotes foram atualizados entre dois commits?

  • Se você quiser comparar a implantação inicializada com a implantação pendente (ou reverter implantação), basta executar:

    $ rpm-ostree db diff
    Você também pode ver o changelog do RPM adicionando a opção -c assim: rpm-ostree db diff -c
  • Se você quiser ver quais pacotes foram atualizados entre dois commits específicos:

    1. descubra quais dois commits você deseja comparar executando:

      $ ostree log <ref>
    2. agora você pode comparar os dois commits executando:

      $ rpm-ostree db diff <commit x> <commit y>

Como posso verificar o número da versão de um pacote instalado?

Você pode simplesmente usar:

$ rpm -q <pacote>

Como posso verificar se um pacote de software rpm está disponível no repositório?

To search for packages in your enabled repositories, use:

$ rpm-ostree search <package>
The assumption is that you have already created a toolbox matching the version of your Fedora Silverblue installation.

Como posso fazer o downgrade do kernel do meu sistema?

Se, por qualquer motivo, você precisar fazer o downgrade do kernel, pode fazer isso seguindo estas etapas:

  1. Para a versão que você precisa fazer o downgrade, faça o download de <kernel>, <kernel-core>, <kernel-modules> e <kernel-modules-extra> do Koji.

  2. Instale os pacotes baixados na etapa anterior executando:

    $ rpm-ostree override replace <kernel> <kernel-core> <kernel-modules> <kernel-modules-extra>
  3. Reinicialize o sistema para aplicar as alterações.

How can I upgrade my system to the next major version (for instance: rawhide or an upcoming Fedora release branch), while keeping my current deployment?

OSTree permite que você fixe implantações (a fixação garante que a implantação de sua escolha seja mantida e não descartada).

  1. Supondo que você deseja manter sua implantação padrão, emita o seguinte comando:

    $ sudo ostree admin pin 0
    0`aqui se refere à primeira implantação listada por `rpm-ostree status
  2. Verifique se você fixou sua implantação preferida, executando:

    $ rpm-ostree status
  3. After the deployment is pinned, you can upgrade your system by using the instructions found here.

  4. When you have completed rebasing, reboot the system. The GRUB menu will now present you with both: the previous deployment major version entry (e.g.: "Fedora 39.YYYYMMDD.n") and the new deployment major version entry (e.g.: "Fedora 40.YYYYMMDD.n").

    No momento, não é possível nomear implantações (fixadas) e suas entradas de menu GRUB associadas.
