Nobara Project


Last Update: 2025-01-01 11:53 UTC

Nobara Project is a modified version of Fedora Linux with user-friendly fixes added to it. The distribution comes with certain features that do not ship with the regular Fedora, such as WINE dependencies, OBS Studio, 3rd party codec packages for GStreamer, NVIDIA drivers, and some package fixes. Nobara aims to fix most of those issues and offer a better gaming, streaming and content creation experience out of the box. The project's official release comes with a custom-themed GNOME desktop, but it also offers separate editions with standard GNOME and KDE desktops.

Popularity (hits per day): 12 months: 12 (593), 6 months: 13 (673), 3 months: 12 (662), 4 weeks: 12 (594), 1 week: 18 (588)

Average visitor rating: 8.16/10 from 91 review(s).

 Nobara seems to have real problems with the current Nvidia
RTX 5000 cards. Starting the live distro ends in all three start versions in a black screen with a blinking sign in the right corner. Or there is a fixed progress circle surrounded by a blue corona. So you can't even install. I have no idea how Nobara could be elevated to the best game distro here. Maybe Nobara (and Fedora currently 42) just can't handle Nvidia graphics cards or it's just the current Nvidia driver, which can't be activated properly with the current Fedora 42.Nobara should take an example from CachyOS here. Everything works right away.

 The Best Linux so far. Normal use is like using Fedora - Great, understandably. Gaming, wow, so easy. Only grumble - when using Decky for my gaming, if I need to & forget to change sound either speakers to headset or the other way, I have to go out of Decky to change it. Updating is virtually automatic including some fixes. I prefer KDE to Gnome, but both need a thorough upgrade. I think newbies to linux should keep Nobara in mind, especially if they are looking to gaming. Once a more novice language is introduced for installation, setting up, help etc. Nobara could become a leading Linux os?

 WOW WOW WOW! Cool distro! I really liked it from the very beginning of installation. I uninstalled Win 11 and installed Nobara OS. Games work, drivers can be installed through the manager in two clicks, there are separate rpm packages for many programs, virtualization works perfectly (I installed Win 11 Pro for the test). I have absolutely no reason to think about replacing it with other distros. It is worth noting the convenient work with Flatpak and the ability to completely uninstall all packages for Flatpak in one click. I could go on for a long time, but I won't. I just want to say that this is a great OS.
