Plasma 6 Bugs

If you encounter a bug, proceed to https://bugs.kde.org/, check whether it has been reported.

PLEASE THINK CAREFULLY BEFORE POSTING HERE.

Developers do not look for reports on social media, so they will not see it and all it does is clutter up the feed.

  1. What's that driving game?
  2. It makes me nervous that they call X11 legacy when AFAIK they may never implement window shading on Wayland.

@kde@floss.social @kde@lemmy.kde.social Congratulations on this milestone! Been hearing positive feedback from people who’ve used it already, can’t wait to get my own hands on it :ablobcatbongo:

@kde@floss.social @kde@lemmy.kde.social KDE, my beloved. Thank you folks for offering me one of the best desktop environments for linux. Only distro I get, I always want KDE. :)

@kde@floss.social @kde@lemmy.kde.social I almost switched to KDE from XFCE because I wanted a desktop with a bit "more" but it ran like crap on my PC. Idk if it is because of KDE issues or my GTX 960 is just too old.

Not the GPU itself but rather its drivers. Plasma 6 flies on potatoe laptop integrated graphics in power saving mode.

I'd say the GTX 960 is unlikely to be the bottleneck. Plasma really does not need a recent GPU.

When was the last time you used KDE? It's been able to run on low-spec machines since KDE4 which about a decade old

I run KDE 6 on Core 2 Duo with Nvidia 9400/nouveau.

[–] socksinspace@sueden.social 1 points 1 year ago

@shanesemler @kde@floss.social @kde@lemmy.kde.social For what it's worth: I still run KDE Plasma 5 on a core 2 duo and a period correct low tier gpu, it won't blow your socks off, but it works fine, and i have no reason to believe that 6 should perform worse.

@kde@floss.social @kde@lemmy.kde.social Can't wait to check this one out! Godspeed KDE!!
