## Fedora 41: broken audio on my X1 Carbon Gen7

Add this to `/etc/modprobe.d/alsa.conf`:

```conf
options snd-intel-dspcfg dsp_driver=1
```

and reboot.

What devices?

```console
$ lspci | grep -i audio
00:1f.3 Audio device: Intel Corporation Cannon Point-LP High Definition Audio Controller (rev 11)

$ inxi -A
Audio:
  Device-1: Intel Cannon Point-LP High Definition Audio driver: snd_hda_intel
  API: ALSA v: k6.12.7-arch1-1 status: kernel-api
  Server-1: PipeWire v: 1.2.7 status: active
```

## dnf

### increase speed

Add to the end of the config file (`/etc/dnf/dnf.conf`):

```conf
max_parellel_downloads=10
fastestmirror=true
```

### keep cache

Add to `/etc/dnf/dnf.conf`:

```conf
keepcache=1
```

## Fixed MAC address on wifi device

```console
$ sudo touch /etc/NetworkManager/conf.d/22-wifi-mac-addr.conf
```

This prevents loading <kbd>/usr/lib/NetworkManager/conf.d/22-wifi-mac-addr.conf</kbd>,
which should contain something like:

```systemd
[connection.22-wifi-mac-addr]
match-device=type:wifi
wifi.cloned-mac-address=stable-ssid

[.config]
enable=nm-version-min:1.45
```

So if we just want to use the original MAC address on your home network,
we use `nmcli` for that, like for my homenet _Macarant_Net_:

```console
$ nmcli connection modify Macarant_Net wifi.cloned-mac-address permanent
```
