Does that exist ?

Thanks

I've seen a lot of conflicting information on the topic, so I'm curious if there is an updated official policy that I haven't been able to find.

I wrote a blog post about my experiences on daily driving Plasma Mobile

So, I like working with tiled WMs sometimes though not always. And Polonium is working great for that in Plasma 6. But as I said, I don't want it enabled 24/7. And rather than open settings and toggling it on and off every time, it'd be wonderful if I could harness the power of KDE activities and automatically toggle it on in a particular activity and off on any other. Is it possible?

I'm moving from ChromeOS to Manjaro. I want to put the Task Manager on the right edge of the screen, but don't see how to do this. I'm pretty sure this was possible a long time ago.

Running KDE Plasma 5.27.11 and Wayland.

After a few months of using @archlinux with the @kde desktop I have moved back to @fedora don't get me wrong I love love Arch btw, but Fedora has won my heart over. It just works... Well besides the dual screen thing but that is a wayland issue. I guess I use X11 till that issue is resolved.

If you are a #KDE developer, I want to talk to you about:

• How can COSMIC apps better fit in when running a Plasma session
• How can KDE apps better fit in when running a COSMIC session

The Adwaita Icon Theme no longer follows the FDO icon naming spec breaking KDE applications on Fedora 40 Workstation and Co. See the concrete state of the issue in the linked article.

I don’t use it and it keeps ruining my day. I recently got a vertical mouse that I’m still not 100% used to, and the paste triggers every time I press the wheel by mistake.

Since it just checked for updates already, hence the notification...

Thanks

The Amarok Development Squad is happy to announce the immediate availability of Amarok 3.0 "Castaway"! The new 3.0 is the first stable Qt5/KDE Frameworks 5 based version of Amarok, and first stable release since 2018, when the final Qt4 based version 2.

I was trying to analyze my phone's storage through Filelight, but it just gets frozen after I select the phone's folder. I didn't find anything in Bugzilla regarding this problem.
Is the protocol supported at all in the app?

I have a wacom graphics tablet that I want to use, but the builtin drivers of plasma 6 do not have enough customizability for me/don't do what I want them to, so I wanted to use the opentabletdriver package, which worked well for me on plasma 5, but the builtin driver is still active even when opentabletdriver is and I then have 2 cursors (the one from the plasma 6 drivers is invisible tho) at different positions and am effectively unable to use the tablet. So I was wondering how to disable the builtin driver, I looked it up but all I found was the same question on reddit, so I thought I'd try asking here.

Another problem is that I also just don't have the settings tab for the tablet on X11, only on the Wayland session, the driver is still active in X11 but with default settings, giving me effectively 1/4 of the tablet for my primary monitor.

I can't really use Wayland, as of now my nvidia card still causes a lot of flickering in games.

UPDATE: I did a fully system update today and there are some changes now, plasma's driver does not interfere with opentabletdriver driver on the X11 Session anymore.

The Wayland Session does not detect my tablet on it's own at all anymore, however when I start the opentabletdriver daemon with the tablet in artist mode, plasma detects this and hijacks it, making any settings in the opentabletdriver ineffective (-> the Settings in the kde Settings also don't seem to do anything). However by Setting the driver to absolute mode (which I believe to just move the mouse to the right position) it works like it normally does in absolute mode.

conclusion: After an update everything works on X11 and artist mode is broken on Wayland (at least for me), still an option to disable the builtin driver would be nice

edit: waylands builtin driver got layered on top of the opentabletdriver, setting it to all screens solves this issue since it does not further transform opentabletdrivers input, however I could not get my buttons to work. My guess is that opentabletdriver takes the input and converts it, but wayland tries to do so again, resulting in invalid input, but I don't know for sure.

Hi, sadly I have a very limited internet connection (10 Mbit). When I'm watching a video and then install something in Discover, it takes almost all the bandwidth and the video begins to stutter & buffer. Somebody knows if there's a way to limit the download speed for discover - preferably without installing additional software?
