Hi,

I have installed caffeine on fedora 25 through the following link

But, the last part that says:

Quote:
Restart the shell and then enable the extension.
I do not know how to enable the extension. Any help is greatly appreciated.

So, restart the shell and you're half-way "there"?

I think what they're talking about is to enable it in the Gnome Shell Extension Preferences as you see on that GitHub web page. Not sure about "restart the shell", to me that is restart Gnome which may be best done by a reboot of the system if that's the most convenient option. Sure you can kill the X server where it will restart or stop and restart Gnome, but if those actions are things you're not well versed in, then just perform a reboot.
