The family needs to be fed, I'm taking off to go to the grocery store and do the weekly shopping.

RE: What Are You Doing Right Now
Been testing out my laptop after the new install of Gecko Linux Rolling Budgie. Install was yesterday, so far not a single issue with it, not like before with Korora 25 Cinnamon. It feels faster, and even doing things like letting it go to sleep and keep running for a long period of time seems to not have affected it at all. So far, all is well.

@dominica made baked fish and cauliflower.
It was yummy.
Dead cow/pig is better. See above Chicken fried steak and waffles!
Not waffles, but I made the kids (and the one roommate) pancakes yesterday. From scratch, they are pretty good.
I do pancakes from scratch every weekend for my kids because they demand it. Well honestly, they demand it almost any not school day, but they learned last summer that daddy does not do that everyday.
It is pretty common around here. My kids are pretty picky eaters. Cereal and pancakes are two of their standard requests, and only sometimes for breakfast.

RE: Korora 25 Freezing on Lenovo Yoga 2 Pro
The test with Gecko Linux is working great. No issues like before, sleep works fine. Fingers crossed, but it looks good.

Ah, yup, testing that just killed the laptop. That's definitely at least related to the issue.
Can't find a rotation lock on Cinnamon, so in the mean time, testing Gnome3 and LXQT on there. At least going to see if we can isolate the issue. Getting closer, though.
Gnome3 does have the rotation lock option.
Testing that now. First test, it didn't work. It rotated after locking then freaked out.
I've only tried it using Fedora 25 Gnome3 on HP ProBook 450 G3.
Possible that Cinnamon is more fragile, since it is built on top of Gnome 3, there is more to go wrong. And it does not get as much testing. Gnome 3 works fine, so this might just be the solution if this tests out okay.

Finally finished switching over to Fedora 25 Workstation from Windows 10 at work. Windows VM is all setup with RSAT installed.
MWahahaha. Welcome to the dark side.

I turned off the hardware for orientation, so far so good.

RE: Korora 25 Freezing on Lenovo Yoga 2 Pro
Although no crashes yet on Gnome 3, just weird rotational locking. Locked or unlocked, it switches to portrait but not back. It's always free to switch once but not again.

RE: Korora 25 Freezing on Lenovo Yoga 2 Pro
The lock does not work. Even after being locked, if you turn the laptop, it rotates to portrait but it cannot rotate back to landscape. Not idea.

Wondering if the direction sensor is part of the issue. Going to attempt moving it around a bit.

RE: Korora 25 Freezing on Lenovo Yoga 2 Pro
Well, it has sat for several hours and is still working just fine.

So far, so good. That was about half an hour, longer than it normally goes, and no freezing so far.
What does it normally do when it crashes?
The desktop freezes, but is still visible. The pointer will still move, but it cannot interact with the desktop. So forced to reboot.

But if they were doing it, this is what they would say, right?

You are right, that is exactly what they would say. <suspicion grows>

Okay, fully updated. Now let's see what it does.
