Windows 10 + F33 + SSD + RAID

Folks,   I have a new dell laptop.  I tried to install Fedora 33 on it, but it failed to find any disks.  I searched the internet and discovered that if my BIOS has RAID enabled F33 is unable to find any drives.  I disabled RAID and enable AHCI and was then able to install and boot F33.  I the

Folks,   I have an issue that has cropped up in F31 and F32 and I hope someone can help me. I have been using sbackup for years to do backups on my system. It has worked great up to and including F30.  This program is a python2 program.  The issue though has to do with bindings to libgnome.
