  3. #Linux #KDEPlasma64 #Oxygen

    Whooohooo ich bin voll happy grade. Habe gerade das Update auf Plasma 6.4.2 gemacht.
    Mein alter Desktop Plasma-Stil Oxygen ist wieder da - so wie früher, mit den glassy schwarzen Elementen und den round corners.* 🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🎉
    Das hatte ich seit dem Update von 5 auf 6 total vermisst und mit anderen, die ich mir rausgesucht hatte, war ich nicht so richtig zufrieden.
    Sitze grade mit nem breiten Grinsen vor meinem Laptop und freu mich sehr!

    *Anmerkung: Nach dem Upgrade von 5 auf 6 war Oxygen lange Zeit nicht mehr das, was es bei Plasma 5 war. Die 6er Version war bisher nicht glassy und hatte weder round corners noch die weißen highlights an den Rändern der Elemente.

  5. @DarilSteelbone mich würde mal interessieren, welche der Veränderungen denn so dermaßen disruptiv ist, dass dein gewohntes Arbeiten nimmer funktioniert?
    Ich sehe in #KDEPlasma64 überwiegend Detailarbeiten, die für Konsistenz, hier und da neue Features etc sorgen, aber nirgends wirklich grundlegende Änderungen.

  7. Plasma 6.4 and X11 on Arch Linux needs manual intervention

    Since KDE Plasma 6.4 was released, it has been ported over to Arch Linux users under the Testing branch with version 6.4.0-1 on the release date. Systems that have this branch configured can now experience KDE Plasma 6.4.

    Normally, this version of KDE Plasma 6.4 runs on Wayland. During testing, the Arch Linux team have made an announcement on their official web page regarding support for X11 and KDE Plasma 6.4. They have stated that they had done a recent migration of KWin to two packages:

    • kwin-wayland: KDE Window Manager using the modern Wayland protocol
    • kwin-x11: KDE Window Manager using the legacy X11 protocol

    Unfortunately, this means that those who are running the legacy X11 protocol need to install an additional support package for X11 for the Plasma session, plasma-x11-session, or they won’t be able to log in the next time the system is restarted.

    They have additionally pointed out that Arch’s package manager, Pacman, is currently unable to figure out the personal setup of a user, and stating that “it wouldn’t be ok to install plasma-x11-session and kwin-x11 for every one using Plasma.”

    If you are using the X11 version of KDE Plasma, you can use sudo pacman -Syu and sudo pacman -Sy plasma-x11-session. We recommend migrating to Wayland as soon as possible.

  8. KDE Plasma 6.4 lets you use day/night wallpapers!

    The upcoming version of KDE Plasma, which will be released in three weeks, brings a very immersive feature that allows you to use a compatible wallpaper as a time-of-day wallpaper.

    This feature allows your desktop to automatically change the wallpaper to the following versions:

    • Light version of the wallpaper is used in the daytime, beginning from the sunrise to the sunset.
    • Dark version of the wallpaper is used in the nighttime, beginning from the sunset to the sunrise.

    You can use your device’s current location for more accurate timing. This increases comfort when you’re using the desktop in both the daytime and in the nighttime.

    In order to implement this feature, the settings application had to be changed so that it more clearly indicates that a wallpaper is dynamic. Also, supported wallpapers will show you a two-sided preview presenting you about how the two versions of the same wallpaper will look in both the daytime and in the nighttime.

    Ubuntu 24.10 will feature this upcoming version of KDE Plasma.

  9. KDE Plasma 6.4 Gets UI Overhauls

    KDE Plasma 6.4 has recently entered a soft freeze stage in preparation for the release, so this means that there will be no more new features being added. Furthermore, more bug fixes and UI refinements will be made during the rest of the development cycle until the final release. However, there may be new features that have been in development in months and are almost ready.

    KDE Plasma 6.4 now gives you a beautified new folder dialog that provides you options to customize the folder’s appearance, alongside the folder name, such as the folder icon. You can make your folder visually expressing to make them easier to distinguish from other folders.

    For the new file dialog, it has become more gorgeous by adding an icon for visual representation of what you’re going to create. This makes tasks easier for you.

    You can now identify the media being played in some applications that provide this metadata to the KDE Plasna desktop. Any application that does this will be given a name and a media currently playing in the audio volume panel widget. This will streamline the identification of which application is playing which media, especially when it comes to web browsers.

    Additionally, when you’re transferring files, sleep is now inhibited to prevent transfer interruptions during the long session. This ensures that you save time from having to retry the transfer, should any problems occur.

    For those who are using Ubuntu, the upcoming Ubuntu version, which is 25.10 Questing Quokka, will provide this version of KDE, which will be released on June 17th, 2025.
