I am assuming you are saying that aarch64 will not work on a IPi3 unless someone does the uboot work? Not that I have any interest in ANY RPi. > > He also wants LDXE for the >> GUI.

There has always been an LXDE build for Fedora-armhfp, see: http://download.fedoraproject.org/pub/fedora/linux/releases/25/Spins/armhfp/images/ And earlier releases, but not for Fedora-26? http://download.fedoraproject.org/pub/fedora/linux/releases/26/Spins/armhfp/images/ I see LXDE for the F27 beta on: https://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/tasks?start=50&state=all&view=tree&method=appliance&order=-id But I don't see any successful builds (at least a few days back), but there are builds for Xfce there. I tried LXDE during the F24 beta and did not like it. I have been on Xfce since F21-arm (or was it the special F18 build? Old history, anyway). I use Xfce on my x64 notebook and get much longer battery usage than I did with Gnome! I should try putting Xfce on one of my Cubies with Centos7 just for the 'exercise'; won't be for a few weeks, as I have a LOT of post-IETF work. Just ask Paul Wouter, he ALSO has a fair bit of post IETF work... The only Centos7 equiv that I have with a GUI is my ClearOS7 server with Xfce. It is on an Intel Nano platform...
