Welp, I made a similar thread yesterday regarding Manjaro but I decided to swap to Fedora as my daily driver for stability purposes. Unfortunately since fedora is yet another non Debian distro I need help finding a Syncterm replacement.

I’m my previous thread it was pointed out to me that syncterm has a docker option which I can run on Fedora, but I’d prefer running an app locally if possible.

I tried the Syncterm snap package which boots inside bash, but it doesn’t have ANSI support (which is the entire point of using Syncterm) since I assume it’s simply piggy backing off of bash- hence the 1.5* review on the snap store.

Looking for options… if anyone can help a Linux noob I’m all ears. I tried Alien to convert deb to rpm and fell on my face.

    There is an option in the installer to enable the non-free software repository. It’s just not checked by default.

          You’re talking about different things.

          Firmware changed. In the past you needed a different iso, hidden in the depths of their site, to have non-free firmware out of the box, so for many people your wifi wouldn’t work. In Debian 12 it is on the main iso.

          The repo option has always been there.
