@scottalanmiller said in Blank Screen After Fedora 30 Update to 5.3.5 Kernel on Dell Inspiron Laptop:

Issue returned for the last two weeks even on Fedora 31. Luckily the old F30 kernel was still there because of the lock and continued to work. But the 5.4 kernel came out today and it works again.

I've had no issues again

That is surprisingly disappointing. Server 2016 is supposedly the best thing ever. . .

Of course it is, if you get paid to support it!

I have to say, though, I prefer the Ubuntu LXD approach much better.

I know Canonical is a big supporter of LXD. Who is the big supporter for LXC?

LXD is just an interface for LXC. So Canonical supports LXC through LXD. The biggest contributors to LXC are Virtuozzo, IBM and Google.

So LXD makes it easier to manage LXC?

Yes

Still working well, still none of the issues that were seen before with Korora.

Good to see. Probably adds a little performance boost as well, newer compilers normally do.

I am still searching as well. On Deepin right now.

So I stopped using the text install and went to full graphical and... it started working. WTF

I don't know why others don't follow with this. I'm sure there are reasons I can't see, but it just seems easier with a rolling release like Arch or Tumbleweed.

They can still snapshot at a point in time to create the LTS release. Maybe it's more work on their part since with a rolling release there can be so many packages that change rather quickly?

I know it's almost enough of a pain to do the upgrade from release to release sometimes to make me consider just wiping and starting over (I usually do that with my laptop and Fedora since home is on a separate drive).

For home laptop use (non-gaming) be sure to check out PC-BSD. It's screaming fast, super stable and very responsive.

In this particular article it was a solid, but not fastest, performer in the transcoding benchmarks they ran, which were about as close to web serfing and video watching. PC-BSD is the fastest bar none if you're compiling software or iops intensive workloads.
