Plasma 6 has so many fucking bugs. Holy shit it drives me crazy.
One thing is, that when starting Apex Legends, all Windows just suddenly start to loose the understanding on whether they should go below or over a Window when focused. They suddenly go below other windows when focused.
Sound System Notification sound too loud? Well, shit for you, you can’t make it quieter now.
Having two monitors with each a panel on the bottom? After a suspend and wake up, its possible that your main panel or right one just goes inbetween those two Monitors.
Linux users telling you to use their new cool Desktop Environment is always bait.
Fr if I turn on my laptop with a monitor connected, the taskbar will be on the monitor, regardless of the settings, every time. Also Bluetooth definitively died.
I’ve been thinking of switching distros for a while, maybe a fresh install helps?Actua, plasma 5 was exactly as wonky with the panels already, especially when using different monitor setups in office and at home
Well, for me at least Plasma 5.27 did work fine
I admit that I’m a little disappointed I can’t set it as my virtual desktop switch animation, and that it defaults to pointing down when invoked, but I am hopeful it’s just a matter of time on those details. :)
It ain’t quite the compiz/beryl cube, nor even what I remember as the last iteration of the kwin cube, but it’s a step in the right direction!
The Compiz cube was fun… I blogged about it nearly 20 years ago. https://d.sb/2006/09/laptop-linux-and-compiz
Fun trip down memory lane. Also, bitchin’ domain name!
Thanks!
I need to redesign my site one day. Simplify it. The current design is from 2008, using design features (like the striped backgrounds) that were popular back then.
How did you get a single letter domain? I thought all single letters were reserved by ICANN in 1993. Did you buy it before that happened?
Nice. Will check it out!
THE CUBE!!!
I love it!!!
I have setup the cube to a hotkey and only used it to test if it is working. It’s amazing, but kind of useless. :D
It’s not useless. It’s a gateway drug for getting into linux. “But can your windows PC do this?” is a great way to recruit people to try linux ;)
Yes, but not out of the box. 😅
Why is everyone so hyped about this? As far as I remember the cube has been there since… I can’t even remember, I know KDE 3.5 had the cube but I’m not sure if it existed before, so it’s literally been there for at least two decades.
It was dropped from Kwin for awhile. Now it’s back.
I remember those nights configuring compiz to perfection. It had amazing look and feel. It was a sight to behold.
Then I realized how useless it was and reverted it all to standard 2D workspaces.
I first beheld the glory of the cube in 2009. It was transcendental. I almost felt my soul leaving my body and ascending to a higher plane of consciousness, where few have treaded and those that truly grasp its majesty, yet fewer still. I was swept up in the spiritual, yet fleeting, ephemeral, and mercurial experience that was like no other. We were no more than ants trying to understand Einstein’s Relativity, or dung beetles oblivious to the sonorous rapture of Mozart.
I flipped the cube for a couple more times to show it to my unimpressed wife, and promptly never booted into Ubuntu since.
