Fedora 42 has a KDE Plasma Mobile Spin, installable as an ISO. However, Fedora doesn’t (yet, hopefully) support 32-bit EFIs, which I need, because I’ve a LINX 1010:
openSUSE appears to provide no equivalent ISO. Consequently:
Is Plasma Mobile choosable in TW’s installer?
As a separate ISO?
If not, can it be installed afterward, from the repositories?
When you follow the “Learn more” link for openSUSE on the KDE Plasma mobile download site, you will get informations how to install under openSUSE. As it is a seperate image, you can’t choose it whilst installation of standard Tumbleweed.
@hui, thank you! Found it at en.opensuse.org/index.php?title=HCL:PinePhone&oldid=195665#Installing_openSUSE_in_a_Pinephone.
A shame. I’ll attempt to ascertain whether that’s tracked anywhere (GitHub/Bugzilla), because I think it should be.
But you know the differences between CPU architectures? There can’t only be one installation image as ARM, s390x, ppc64le, aarch64, x86_64, … are completely different.
@hui, to my knowledge, they can bundle those together, but it would make for a 5 × larger installation package. I’m not referring to that, though. Rather, in the YaST installer, I can choose my DE – see the screenshot above – and I should be able to choose Plasma Mobile in that list.
I’ve just realized that what I saw is an AArch64 build:
I don’t see an x86-64 one. Do you, @hui (if you don’t mind checking)?
For openSUSE, Plasma mobile is only available for ARM devices as far as i know. That is why it isn’t available at the DE selection screen. It is a separate image.
Actually, @hui, I installed plasma6-mobile, and it’s worked:
