[fedora-arm] Re: Questions to Fedora on Pinebook Pro

I had similar Wayland problems after upgrading to F35 on PineBook Pro. I use a plain-vanilla default GNOME/Wayland session (i.e., install Fedora Workstation and don't meddle with it). I haven't taken the time to look into this myself or write up a decent bug report, but I can probably reproduce anything Andreas is seeing.

I also noticed that switching to an X11 session fixed a Wayland bug carried over from F34 (which I've also never written up properly), in which Thunderbird interacts badly with task switching, e.g., it can't be Alt+Tab'ed to.

I'm not really asking for help with these issues, since I haven't even bothered to document them. However, I'm happy to help reproduce, debug, or test if somebody does work on them.
