Detailed intrustions for kde6 upgrade?

Hi, I just wanted to seek clarification for how to upgrade KDE since this is my first time doing a major DE update, thanks for the help

I have already run sudo zypper dup -d what is the next step?

This was already described several times here in the last few days…
Switch to a CLI/TTY session and do the upgrade, e.g.:

CTRL+ALT+F4

login as root

zypper dup

systemctl reboot

or:

systemctl isolate multi-user.target

login as root

zypper dup

systemctl isolate graphical.target

This happed after applying plasma6 workspace, ctrl alt f4 does not work, what should i do?

Update: it quit my keyboard driver and thats why it wasnt responding


But you can login? Many old themes are no longer compatible with Plasma 6

Make sure

sddm-qt6-branding-openSUSE
sddm-greeter-qt6
plasma6-sddm-theme-openSUSE

are installed.

Turns out it just needed a 2nd restart, also how to i remove the old kde assets like kded5?

You simply don’t. As most of these packages are still dependencies for newer Plasma 6 packages, you will break your system within seconds if you don’t pay attention or know exactly what you are doing.

I see, well, thanks for the help, until next time :wink:
