+There is an issue with loosing connection with radios on modern wifis. Maybe playing a mad song when using the radio as an alarm clock. The community firmware could be the solution: https://forums.lyrion.org/forum/user-forums/3rd-party-software/1699666-how-and-why-to-install-the-community-firmware-step-by-step

 Seems ok. Had to do this later for "events" as well. Do not forget to remove the recovery setting and restart mariadb so that home assistant can connect. Moved away from remote mariadb hass database to the default sqlite implementation with a database on an ssd. Set up a nightly backup through an automation to to avoid all these issues. Seems quicker as well.

 You may need the "--allowerasing" flag or possibly force uninstall of some packages using "rpm -e --nodeps <package>" to get this to pass.
 Then reboot this way to do the actual upgrade:
-  # sudo dnf system-upgrade reboot
+  # dnf5 offline reboot
+  (# sudo dnf system-upgrade reboot)
  You may need to upgrade the squeezeboxserver rpm. Maybe update java version used for minecraft. See those chapters. (Old, running nouveau with modern gfx-card nowadays: You may need to uninstall and install nvidia drivers again, at least uninstall the newly created kmod-nvidia and rebuild it using akmods.)

   - Had to upgrade to squeezeboxserver 7.9.3 and build tbs with workarounds for kernel 5.7. Later I replaced tbs with a hauppauge dongle.
   - New samba 4.11 disables smbv1 by default which does not work with my tablet used as a photo frame. See samba section above for how to fix.
-  - Autologin had to be reconfigured in /etc/lxdm/lxdm.conf for fedora 37 AND fedora 40. Just add back the autologin line, see the .rpmsave file.

+  - The mailserver got disabled for fedora 42, run "systemctl start postfix && systemctl enable postfix".
   - Maybe clean up old unmaintained packages using "remove-retired-packages 36" or similar. You may also use "dnf repoquery --unsatisfied" and "dnf repoquery --duplicates" to check for broken/duplicates. See fedora upgrade docs for more info.
