#kde6 — Public Fediverse posts

@katzenmann In KDE Plasma 6.6.x there is an option to show/hide the notification timeout indicator.
System Settings / Apps & Windows / Notifications / Popups / Show timeout indicator
#kde #kde6

Since matrix won't let me ask in the KDE Matrix chat I'm going to ask here:

Can we please, please get a feature to turn off the blue progress bar showing how long a notifcation will still be there? It makes notifications so much more distracting than they should be.

Ну это просто странно.. строка состояния в #Dolphin на #Kde6 не доходит до края окна

Salut les mastopotes.ses.
Je cherche un logiciel / une façon de travailler pour répondre au besoin suivant : chaque jour je passe d'un projet à l'autre à chaque réunion, je prends des notes, je crée des fichiers, et je les stocke dans les répertoires de chaque projet. Mais ce qui me manque, c'est une espèce de timeline : sur quoi ai je bossé aujourd'hui, cette semaine, chaque jour ? Et quelles sont mes notes associées ?
Pré-requis : #logiciellibre #kde6 #linux
Idéalement : #markdown des idées?

So I should execute Order 66 - I mean update 6.6?

Ask Mastodon time:

#KDE6 is intercepting my PrtSc key and not letting me pass it to the program, even if I unmap all functions from the PrtSc key and set the program to capture key/mouse.

How can I send PrtSc to my application?

Hmm using i3 as a kwin replacement works fine. Well but don't have your panel on autohide. I can't invoke it anymore.

After a complete reinstall, I had to #SSH from another computer so my eyeballs didn't strain trying to read tiny font on Thinkpad T480s screen, then I followed the steps here to install KDE:

https://www.musabase.com/2025/08/openbsd-kde-plasma.html?m=1

Got a #KDE desktop in user session. Had to add config file for wifi under /etc/hostname.iwm0 cause wifi can't be configured through KDE

Which isn't ideal for everyday use and portability.

I don't think BT will ever work.

Things I still need to do:
configure doas for ease of use commands
setup my standard array of apps
learn pf
set up a snapshot for when I inevitably break something
set up keyboard shortcuts
upload dmesg somewhere? (Cause that's what the cool #BSD kids do?)

Anything else please let me know.

Something changed with #Kubuntu 25.10 over the past week. Now all of a sudden I'm getting #prompted for my #sudo #password every time #PackageKit runs to update package sources (which is several times a day)!

Fortunately, you can create a custom #PolKit #rule to let it run without prompting you!

sudo nano /etc/polkit-1/rules.d/10-allow-packagekit-refresh.rules

polkit.addRule(function(action, subject) {
    if (action.id == "org.freedesktop.packagekit.system-sources-refresh" &&
        subject.isInGroup("sudo")) {
        return polkit.Result.YES;
    }
});

I think I will need to get a KDE 4 VM installed to do testing to see how Diamond originally looked, because I want to modify Diamond4on6 to both 1. use the version from my backup (2.0.3, meaning the repo version will be rebased [this is because 2.0.3 works better]) and 2. I need to have a way to mess around with it in a state where it works and doesn't have a grey background.

Found Diamond 2.0.3 for KDE4 in some old backups and uploaded it to Codeberg in a zip file. Later it will be organized. I forgot this version existed and didn't know just how lost the Diamond theme was.

I got an #upgrade today to #KDE 6.2. I’m always a bit wary of upgrading the desktop in the middle of the working day because the behaviour may be unpredictable because of it. However, at first glance this is looking good. A detail that I like is that you can now map the #buttons on the #pen for my #WacomTablet to #MouseButtons as well as #KeyStrokes.

#kwrite , please don't switch my font next time I upgrade! I chose it because I like it. *grumble*

Other than that, keep on going :)
The removed menu bar was a bit of a surprise, but I rarely used it anyway, so meh.

How can I get working latest version of #NeoChat on #Debian or #Ubuntu without #Flatpak on #KDE6 ???
I cannot find any DEB files...

Since a few days, everytime I log into my PC KDE opens this window.
Any Linux user who might know what's wrong?

Edit: retoot please. I need to get rid of this.

Did some archaeology to dig up the Konfabulator and Google Desktop Gadget docs so I can steal the good/useful bits for the Thoth widget engine.

Yes this is easier/faster/more fun than reverse-engineering Plasma 6's widgets and all the associated Qt stuff I don't know and updating their docs/tutorials.

My quest to have the perfect (ha!) desktop continues; I've been looking into making Cinnamon desktop widgets ("Desklets").

Instead of having out of date documentation like KDE Plasma 6, there's just no documentation. 🤷

Maybe if I hit the lottery this week I'll quit my day job, reverse engineer these desktop widget systems, and write up to date docs and tutorials. 😛

Rainmeter might be the Windows app I miss most, somehow.

As of a about a month ago, I think I can finally say that I’ve switched permanently to #Wayland from #X11. I’ve tinkered with Wayland for several years but always came back to #X since there were too many glitches, or things in development, which made for a shaky experience when compared to the #XDesktop. Although there are still some minor things, like, say #Birdtray for #Thunderbired not quite working as it should, everything else is at least as good now.
