can you tell me where I have to download the patch :) (do I have to  copy/paste what you provided into your post ?)  

What patch? What post? Can you provide more details here?

I was asking adpdyj+4aw13di0ccx1w＠sharklasers.com :)

I am running aarch64, so do I have to play with arm or arm64 ?    When going into arch directories I have no dts file at all ? Did I miss  something ?      Sorry for the stupid questions !  

Just needs some more details :-) The HAT support for Fedora is not  great ATM, although I'm hoping the general support will be better RSN.  I'm working with a few people to improve the support of HATs but I  support the Raspberry Pi in Fedora in mostly my own time and there's  been other things, like making the new 3+ work that have taken  priority here and also taken longer than I expected.

ok, it makes sense,

I still have a lot to learn but if I  can help - at least testing stuff, it will be a pleasure :)

I'll try adpdyj+4aw13di0ccx1w＠sharklasers.com patch & stuffs and give you feedbacks.

Well Well Well :)

it seams that unicornhat will be a mess for fedora and especially aarch64

(pip3 install is failing with a gcc error ... ) so I did try to do it from scratch ...

ws281x is the issue and the post from pimoroni is an answer to my loneliness :)

never mind I'll try to make spi work !
