* A listed limitation: "When booted on a UEFI system, keyboard input will only be seen if the CSM is enabled in the BIOS. Without this, the test will run, but you will be unable to alter the configuration." - How does a CSM provide keyboard input to an EFI application? Or does this mean with CSM enabled, we'd use the BIOS version of the memory tester; and with CSM disabled, we'd use the UEFI version of the memory tester? - As far as I'm aware, enabling CSM requires disabling UEFI Secure Boot. * Any UEFI memory tester needs to be signed with Fedora's signing key, same as grubx64.efi so that it works with UEFI Secure boot enabled. -- Chris Murphy _______________________________________________ devel mailing list -- devel@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to devel-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/devel@lists.fedoraproject.org
