Have you tried KDE5.9??sunrat wrote:@wizard10000 I love you! That works fine except for nvidia-settings throwing heaps of warnings, although it displays fine. I removed that section for now and believe it may be related to KDE not following freedesktop.org XDG guidelines. I use Harrison Mixbus and the issue came up with plugins display and a Mixbus dev said KDE is the only DE they can't support because of this.I ran into the autostart problem ages ago, it's because conky starts before the desktop is drawn.

export NO_AT_BRIDGE=1It is a repo based on debian testing, and you only update DE KDE packages. Do you have installed BTRFS?, you should have it, it's the best linux filesystem in my opinion, it allow you to test anything easilly, and you can rollback in a minit to a previous snapshot,sunrat wrote:I will use Plasma 5.9 when it is in Sid repo. I wouldn't be comfortable adding a 3rd party repo for that.
Found a workaround for the warnings generated by nvidia-settings. Add to ~/.bashrc:Code: Select all

Window Managers are too primitive to be of any good use to me as I don't have the luxury of having a pair of very strong eyes. My eyesight is not 7/7 and very small fonts as used by Window Managers make my situation far worse with burning eyes and a blurred vision. Unless Window Managers are provided with a tool to properly configure font rendering quickly, without the ridiculous need of spending hours upon hours fiddling with config files to get a decently sized font, they remain a non option for me. I used XFCE4.* under Devuan Testing which has very good font configuration tools.A good simple Window Manager, now,.... that is the "ultimate".

5.10 is heavier than 5.9 and 5.8 and the sddm or/and kwin upgrade gave me a worse behavior--> So I roll back to 5.9.3 snapshotbester69 wrote: KDE 5.10 in reposToday they updated to 5.10, Ive just updated, right now in testing period, the migration seems correct, kmail and others services working properlyCode: Select all

Neon is based on Ubuntu, you might want to use Netrunner, its using debian testing, but i think you probably can use it with no problems with SID as well. I removed respositories cos they jumped to 5.10, and im staying in 5.9 for ever. I might go back to 5.8.x when they backported last FixBug pack, I will see. the good thing, is btrfs allow me to play with installationswizard10000 wrote:bester69 wrote:...Have you tried KDE5.9??Same. I ran 5.9 for awhile when I switched to Neon during the freeze. TBH 5.8 was a good stopping point for Debian as I've found 5.9 to be a little more temperamental than Sid's 5.8.7 is, at least on my machine. I was also running Neon Dev Stable, so it's possible User and LTS editions worked just fine.sunrat wrote:I will use Plasma 5.9 when it is in Sid repo.

I see a little grumbling on /r/kde about Neon and 5.10.4 and there's a flood of Frameworks 5.28 and qt 5.37 source code moving into Sid from Experimental. I've been digging around developer mail lists trying to find out which version of Plasma 5 is coming to Sid but they're still uploading qt framework and I haven't been able to tell from package version numbers which release Sid will be getting.
