Open your kickstart file and find section that starts with “%post”. Any command that you issue in %post section run with root privileges in build environment before iso image is created.

Any application that you add to ~/.config/autostart folder start up in GNOME 3 when user logs on. To make this system wide you need to put your application shortcuts in /etc/skel/.config/autostart directory

so here is one example how your kickstart could look like:

# add synapse to autostart directory
mkdir -p /etc/skel/.config/autostart
cp /usr/share/applications/synapse.desktop /etc/skel/.config/autostart/

Now you can add any app that you want to start every time users log on.

Atfter discussion on our mailing list and on Google+ Github was chosen as coding repository.

If you wish to download whole repository as one zip file you can do that here [3].

If you wish to participate in making best Fedora Desktop Remix join our team and start contributing.

Currently only kickstart files are in github but soon icon files and fusion-welcome script will be included in github repo.

For 32bit version:
yum localinstall --nogpgcheck -y https://dl.google.com/linux/direct/google-chrome-stable_current_i386.rpm

For 64bit version

GIMP config that is used to enable this is located in ~/.gimp-2.7/sessionrc and this is the lines it needs:

(single-window-mode yes)

But that line is not enough, you can see here full config file.

Please test drive it and report any feedback you have, we welcome both positive and negative feedback as long as it is constructive.

Enjoy.

Even when you copy extension to your /home/username/.local/share/gnome-shell/extensions folder extensions are disabled by default.

To enable them you need to use gsettings command in terminal.

For example download, extract and copy noa11y@fpmurphy.com extension to your extensions folder.

Then enable extension with gsettings command:
gsettings set org.gnome.shell enabled-extensions "['noa11y@fpmurphy.com']"

If you are aware of GUI for enabling/disabling GNOME Shell extensions please share that info.

For last few releases Fedora branches off development Rawhide branch from current in-development release few weeks before release. For few week you could build your own Fedora Remix using F16 repos even if F16 is not yet released.

RPM Fusion repo doesn’t follow this development path so there is no accompanying F16 RPM Fusion repo, there are only F15 and rawhide. RPM Fusion repo usually is available few weeks after Fedora release.

For us who make Fedora Remixes and use RPM Fusion this makes life a bit harder, because we also need time to test development releases before releasing them.

I found one clever way to produce Fedora Remix iso files that will work both now and after RPM Fusion makes F16 branch available.

This needs to be done in two places, first you need to edit sources in kickstart files that are used to produce your Remix. This is the easy part. Just add these sources:

repo --name=rpmfusion-free --baseurl=http://download1.rpmfusion.org/free/fedora/development/$basearch/os/

repo --name=rpmfusion-nonfree --baseurl=http://download1.rpmfusion.org/nonfree/fedora/development/$basearch/os/

More tricky part is how to start using RPM Fusion F16 repos and stop using Development one when it becomes available. Trick is to edit RPM Fusion .repo files and add Development source AFTER original source line. That way original source will fail and yum will try next source in order.

This is how rpmfusion-free.repo file should look like:

[rpmfusion-free]
name=RPM Fusion for Fedora $releasever - Free
#baseurl=http://download1.rpmfusion.org/free/fedora/releases/$releasever/Everything/$basearch/os/
mirrorlist=http://mirrors.rpmfusion.org/mirrorlist?repo=free-fedora-$releasever&arch=$basearch
mirrorlist=http://mirrors.rpmfusion.org/mirrorlist?repo=free-fedora-rawhide&arch=$basearch
enabled=1
metadata_expire=7d
gpgcheck=0
gpgkey=file:///etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-rpmfusion-free-fedora-$releasever-$basearch

If you have any suggestions or comments please share them regarding this hack.

Why has it taken so long to release it?

First I lost a loooot of time trying to implement Blue Pill project into Fusion Linux. That would integrate Gnome 2 instead of Gnome 3. That didn’t work because Blue Pill project still had some Gnome 3 dependencies that they didn’t resolve.

In July I also joined one big international wifi project and that also consumes lots of my time. During August I was on a holiday and when I returned I was ready to ship Fusion 15 but then disaster struck – main distribution servers of Croatian Linux Users Group died

I hope to pick up the pace and keep on schedule with new Fedora releases.

I’ll keep working on this project for next few releases, but I don’t want to keep doing it alone. If more people join Fusion Linux project then it will grow.
