KDE Plasma 6 is out

@jsmith64, do you mean that specifically plasmashell wasn’t automatically invoked?

----removed----

All bare metal Tumbleweed installations are upgraded to Plasma 6. All bare metal machines use proprietary Nvidia drivers and one is an Optimus setup. No issues at all whilst upgrade process.

Some tray applets are not available yet for Plasma 6 but this expected and will be solved in the future.

Move on…nothing to see here :smiley:

Only my VMs need the still the upgrade…

In retrospect, perhaps it didn’t go entirely correctly… I don’t think

is quite correct. Heh.


demonstrates what I meant by that.

I’m not feeling ready for immutability (yet :smiley: ).

I’m sure I’d end up overlaying a lot of packages.

Apart from big-bang changes like this one, I guess that I’m very satisfied with the stability provided by TW and snapper.

Yeah, @andrea.ippo, the last time I tried The KDE Plasma desktop, in an atomic fashion | The Fedora Project, I ended up just managing it like a regular distribution. rpm-ostree broke quite quickly.

Smooth upgrade, thank you packagers. :slight_smile:

Some icons were missing in the tray, but reapplying the theme sorted it out.

How do I make my digital clock green like yours, Deano?

I upgraded from the tray icon instead of from a terminal and everything worked just fine. It did close down the X11 session and start up a Wayland session automatically though, which closed down the final exam I was doing for school which isn’t nice ( In the end it didn’t cause any problems ).
What I can’t find in Plasma under Wayland though is how to optimize for lower input delay, in Plasma 5 it was under the option “Compositor” but that no longer exists from what I can find. Default settings seem decent but not perfect though so I’ll survive.
