  1. I guess ArchWiki (AUR package) website admins think that everybody uses Arch?

    Because they don't like if I post this from KDE Neon:
    LC_ALL=C pacman -V|sed -r "s#[0-9]+#$(date -u +%m)#g"|base32|head -1
    Command 'pacman' not found, but can be installed with:
    sudo apt install pacman # version 10-19, or
    sudo apt install pacman-package-manager # version 6.0.2-4

    Not funny, admins!

    (I upgraded a few days ago (I have the Phosh edition), and for some reason, the welcome app appears for a few seconds, then a lock screen with the default wallpaper instead of the one I set, then when I unlock the phone, it looks like as if it crashes, the GUI disappears for a few seconds, then it comes back, unlocked successfully. It only does this after boot, if I lock the screen back, everything is normal, no crash, and the wallpaper is what I set. Not the end of the world for me, but it's a bit weird, might annoy some.)

  9. Arreglando actualización de KDE Neon a Plasma 6.7.0 - sddm

    Recientemente mi computadora personal con KDE Neon tuvo una actualización grande y "se rompió". Llevaba 21 días sin reiniciarla o apagarla, así que después de una última apt-get update y apt-get upgrade, la reinicié. Al volver el sistema, me encontré con el familiar login de la línea de comando, y no anda el servidor gráfico.

  11. "I spent the afternoon playing games in Steam on Linux and everything worked perfectly" was a much more impressive statement before the Steam Deck came along, but I am still amazed and just how well things have progressed.

    All but one game I tried worked without any changes, one I had to nudge to use Proton Experimental. Graphics quality was great, too, but I wasn't playing anything that drove it too hard. Just a few things like Balatro, Peglin, and Wingspan.

  12. Up and running with KDE Neon on my main laptop. No more Windows 11, finally. Though it's just the basics at the moment, the rest shouldn't take long. Having multiple very accessible backups has helped speed along the process. Helps that nearly all the software I use daily is already FOSS or at least cross-platform.

    Most things are good on this hardware, even multiple monitors. Audio is weak but I have leads on fixes.

  13. #Linux #KDENeon #Ubuntu #Update #KernelPanic #Lösungssuche

    Moin ihr Lieben,
    ich habe hier ein spezifisches Problem, welches zwar provisorisch gelöst wurde, aber die Ursache ist noch nicht behoben:
    Beim KDE Update auf 6.6.0 (und 6.6.1 hat das Problem natürlich nicht behoben) hat der neue Kernel einen Kernel Panic Screen ausgelöst und ich musste umständlich über das Advanced Menü den vorherigen Kernel booten. Provisorisch gelöst jetzt mit Grub, der sich den nun älteren gebooteten Kernel merkt. Aber was ist die Ursache des Problems?
    Ich konnte nur beim oberflächlichen Suchen auf der Ubuntu Forum Seite finden, dass das angeblich eine Inkompatibilität von Virtualbox und VMWare wäre. Weiß da jemand mehr drüber und wenn ja, wie löst man das Problem?

  14. Wow, lots of work went into the new Plasma 6.6. Good job, people!

  15. Y ni 24 horas después del lanzamiento de la nueva versión de Plasma, KDE Neon ya la tiene disponible. Una vez más, aparte de lo bien que funciona esta distribución Gnu/Linux, me sorprende la rapidez con la que actualiza todo lo relacionado, con el software de KDE.

    Una vez más, gracias a los responsables de mantener este sistema operativo libre y a pesar de su incierto futuro, esperemos que aún le queden muchos años por delante.

  17. I got a little tired of the normal cli workflow for homebrew, the package installer, which works on linux.

    So, I worked with Claude to scratch my itch. Seems to have worked great for me and my personal brew system.

  18. years ago, i fell in love with #kde . it was a painful, toxic relationship, with baloo always crashing, k-workers making noise but not working, frequent reboots and freezing on his side. At some point I had to walk away mate.

    Then about one or two years ago we met again. "you, still alive?!" i gasped excitedly. sparks flew and since then, things are really really good between the two of us. :D
