Initial thoughts on KDE/Plasma 6 with Wayland
by Patrick O'Callaghan 29 Apr '24

29 Apr '24

I installed F40 a couple of days ago, using the distro-upgrade path. It went smoothly with no installation issues. I'm on an Intel board with an AMD GPU. All in all, the user experience seems smoother (faster) than the previous version wih X11. However there are two things that bother me. They may or may not be related: 1) As noted before, session save/restore does not work. This is pretty much expected, if disappointing. I hope the workaround is fixed soon as it's a significant impediment for me. For some reason, Firefox with multiple windows *does* start correctly, but nothing else does (neither KDE apps nor Evolution, which is GTK-based). 2) Resuming after hibernation works only partially. Most things are recovered (including Evolution), but among those I use Konsole and Dolphin simply don't. They just aren't there when I resume and have to be started manually. Interestingly, I tried using Gnome and starting both of these apps in the Gnome environment, and they both *do* restore correctly after hibernation. In all cases I'm using SDDM as desktop manager. I've no explanation for why this is happening. poc

Plasma crashes
by Mark ＠ GMail 27 Apr '24

27 Apr '24

Is just me getting Plasma problems since recent updates? I apply Fedora updates once a week and since last week I'm getting frequent (only something like once a day) problems. I've had a couple of total hangs, I think these were linked to viewing a website that has a particularly active js header in FireFox, though to be fair that might be 'cos it turned out I also had 90 other tabs open. Other than that I seem to get a "race condition", my auto-hiding control bar sometimes shows a flickering tooltip, nothing seems to fix that other than closing the session (log off or reboot). I've just had a screen corruption, the right hand side (15%?) got a portion of some other page fixed on it, changing virtual desktop fixed that. This is new since last week. Mark F39, X11.

Kaddressbook empty after upgrade F39-40
by Frank Bures 26 Apr '24

The subject says it all. How do I populate the Kaddressbook with data that was there in F39? So far my search for info yielded nothing. Thanks Frank -- <listfrank1(a)gmail.com>

Fedora 40, KDE session would not start after login
by Frank Bures 25 Apr '24

25 Apr '24

Hi, After upgrade from F39 to F40 I cannot normally log in. When I enter my login and passwd a black screen appears for a second and I am back in the login screen. When I switch to CLI, log in there and do "startplasma-wayland", the KDE desktop appears normally. System is operational, but this behaviour is annoying. Any ideas how to solve the problem would be appreciated. Thanks Frank -- <listfrank1(a)gmail.com>

2024-04-15 @ 16:00 UTC - Fedora 40 Blocker Review Meeting
by Adam Williamson 14 Apr '24

14 Apr '24

# F40 Blocker Review meeting # Date: 2024-04-15 # Time: 16:00 UTC # Location: https://matrix.to/#/#blocker-review:fedoraproject.org?web-instance[element.… Hi folks! It's time for another blocker review meeting. We have 1 proposed blocker (kinda...) and 4 proposed freeze exceptions for Final. Here is a handy link which should show you the meeting time in your local time: https://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/fixedtime.html?msg=Fedora+40+Blocker… The meeting will be on Matrix. Click the link above to join in a web client - you can authenticate with your FAS account - or use a dedicated client of your choosing. If you have time today, you can take a look at the proposed or accepted blockers before the meeting - the full lists can be found here: https://qa.fedoraproject.org/blockerbugs/ . Remember, you can also now vote on bugs outside of review meetings! If you look at the bug list in the blockerbugs app, you'll see links labeled "Vote!" next to all proposed blockers and freeze exceptions. Those links take you to tickets where you can vote. https://pagure.io/fedora-qa/blocker-review has instructions on how exactly you do it. We usually go through the tickets shortly before the meeting and apply any clear votes, so the meeting will just cover bugs where there wasn't a clear outcome in the ticket voting yet. **THIS MEANS IF YOU VOTE NOW, THE MEETING WILL BE SHORTER!** We'll be evaluating these bugs to see if they violate any of the Release Criteria and warrant the blocking of a release if they're not fixed. Information on the release criteria for F40 can be found on the wiki [0]. For more information about the Blocker and Freeze exception process, check out these links: - https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/QA:SOP_blocker_bug_process - https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/QA:SOP_freeze_exception_bug_process And for those of you who are curious how a Blocker Review Meeting works - or how it's supposed to go and you want to run one - check out the SOP on the wiki: - https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/QA:SOP_Blocker_Bug_Meeting Have a good day and see you tomorrow!
