Jure Repinc@lemmy.mlto Linux@lemmy.ml•This Week in Plasma: The beginnings of Wayland session restoreEnglish3·3 months agoOh yeah. Can’t wait for this. Bad session management/restore is basically the only major thing I still miss a lot on Wayland. Hopefully Firefox and other apps will gain support for this soon (I guess all Qt/KDE apps will get support at once when they also add support to Qt and KDE Frameworks). Anyways I just opened the enhancement request for Firefox for this just hoping they will add support soon.
Jure Repinc@lemmy.mlto Linux@lemmy.ml•Fedora KDE Desktop promoted to an Edition, same as Fedora WorkstationEnglish2·8 months agoYeah, most newcomers don’t even know about the spins and labs since they are quite hidden. So this is a great thing for getting Fedora KDE Spin on an equal footing in visibility and promotion.
Jure Repinc@lemmy.mlto KDE@lemmy.kde.social•Fedora KDE Spin will be upgraded to Edition statusEnglish4·8 months agoYeah they are more visible/promoted and offered for downloads on the same equal level as other editions. Otherwise spins and labs can be quite hidden from peopel who do not know they exist.

Jure Repinc@lemmy.mlto Linux@lemmy.ml•What desktop enviroment do you use and why?English441·9 months agoKDE Plasma on all my computers and also as desktop mode on Steam Deck. because it supports the latest technologies especially when it comes to graphics (HDR, VRR) also has best support for Wayland and multi-monitors. It looks great out of the box and it has a lot of features out of the box and I do not need to battle with adding some extensions that break with almost every update. KDE Plasma is also the most flexible desktop and I can set the workflow really to fit my desires and I can actually set many options and settings. And despite all these built-in features and configurability it still uses very few system resources and is very fast and smooth. Oh and the KDE community is one of the most welcoming I have met in FOSS world, and they listen to their users instead of the our way or the high way mentality I have so often encountered in GNOME for example. So yeah TLDR KDE Plasma is the one I like the most of all in the industry, even when compared to proprietary closed alternatives.
KDE Plasma desktop and apps also have a Kiosk mode/framework for deployment and lockdown built-in, that can come in handy
Kiosk - Simple configuration management for large deployment
The Kiosk framework provides a set of features that makes it possible to easily and powerfully restrict the capabilities of a KDE environment.
Introduction
The Kiosk framework provides a set of features that makes it possible to easily and powerfully restrict the capabilities of a KDE environment based on user and group credentials. In addition to an introductory overview, this article covers configuration setting lock down, action and resource restrictions, assigning profiles to users and groups and more.
As far as I remember you can only compare after you upload a benchmark test/suite result to the site. For example when you upload a VkMark benchmark your result should be shown on that test page under Recent Test Results. You can then select your result and some other to compare them. And if you select to re-run a test suite from Latest Test Results the text at the top gives you the command to run it and automatically compare the results, e.g. for GPU CPU HDD Usage and Temperature test Unigine Heaven Fullscreen 2560x1440:
Compare your own system(s) to this result file with the Phoronix Test Suite by running the command:
phoronix-test-suite benchmark 2410251-MRPI-241025885

Jure Repinc@lemmy.mlOPto Linux@lemmy.ml•This week in KDE Plasma: 6.2 has been released!English7·9 months agoAlready reported on bugs.kde.org.
I hope not. Had very bad experience with these and toxicity they enabled on Xitter and one of the main reasons why I left it for mastodon quite early. I would much more like to see if they focused on making it possible to also migrate posts when you change an instance/server.
I use the testing ebuilds system-vide.
Best to report the issue you have with as much information as possible to bugs.kde.org
Installed on my openSUSE Tumbleweed and Gentoo computers and so far Plasma 6.2 working great 👍
Jure Repinc@lemmy.mlto Linux@lemmy.ml•Looking for a distribution that I could replicate from one computer to anotherEnglish5·9 months agoCloning the system and home partitions always worked fine for me with openSUSE Tumbleweed with KDE Plasma desktop. Another option openSUSE offers is AutoYaST
AutoYaST is a system for unattended mass deployment of openSUSE Leap systems. It uses an AutoYaST profile that contains installation and configuration data.
Anyone else having the problem with the new kernel that graphics in games/benchmarks is quite a lot slower (about 15-20%) then with older kernel (I used 6.10.7 before I upgraded). This is with Powercolor Hellhound AMD Radeon RX 7900 GRE? Even Einstein@Home GPU tasks take about 20% longer now (28 min with previous kernel to about 34 min now).
Jure Repinc@lemmy.mlOPto Linux@lemmy.ml•On Rust, Linux, developers, maintainersEnglish7·11 months agoNope. here it is about the good DRM: Direct Rendering Manager
Even quicker is “#X”
On openSUSE they have snapper snapshotting integrated into package management, so it automatically creates a snapshot before and after updates. And if something would go wrong you could easily select an old snappshot to boot from in the GRUB menu.
