KDE

I was wondering if it is possible to change the world size in Marble for the coordinate system. I have created a custom map of a world slightly bigger than earth in QGIS but if I put the image on marble and then import the rivers, locations and routes as json files everything is off due to the extents being bigger than earth in QGIS.

I figured since you can make it smaller for the moon it could be enlarged for a custom planet but I can't find information in the documentation.

So today I clicked 'enable HDR' on one of my monitors and something broke. The whole system froze up and the HDR monitor went black. If I reboot it freezes right after I login.

If I unplug that monitor or start in X11 instead of Wayland then everything is fine. Plugging the HDR monitor in while I'm logged into a Wayland session also freezes everything.

How can I disable the HDR setting? The monitor doesn't show in System Settings whilst its unplugged so I'm hoping theirs some way to fix it on the CLI. The only place I've found HDR referenced is .config/kwinoutputconfig.json. I set HDR to false but after reboot it's set to true again. I also tried deleting .config/kwinrc and .local/share/kscreen but no luck.

I'm fine with just resetting all Display settings if that's required.

----- UPDATE ------

Bug report filed here: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=485403

Fixed by

• Ctrl + Alt + F3 to go into terminal
• Set HighDynamicRange and WideColorGamut to false in ~/.config/kwinoutputconfig.json
• Execute plasmashell --replace
• Reboot, Login, Reattach HDR Monitor

------ UPDATE ------

After updating and trying again today the steps above no longer worked. You still need to change ~/.config/kwinoutputconfig.json but plasmashell --replace no longer works for me.

Running killall kwin_wayland also just bumps me from my terminal back into the desktop. kwin can't be running when you change that file or it will be overridden.

I booted into a separate Linux Live USB and change the files that way.

Thank you everyone for your help 🎉

After Plasma 6, Alt+f invokes Find, instead of forward word, and it's driving me nuts. I can't seem to find any shortcut to stop this. Konsole shortcuts show Ctrl+Shift+F for Find.

Are there some know issues with Tokodon and NeoChan on Android?

When I open them on Lineage 20 they just immediately close. They don’t trow any errors and don’t really know how to debug them.

Klevernotes is now available as a flatpak (Nightly version) through KDE cdn.

To install it, simply run:

flatpak install --user --or-update https://cdn.kde.org/flatpak/klevernotes-nightly/org.kde.klevernotes.flatpakref

This is based on the following tutorial.

Hi,

Maliit is selected in virtual keyboard settings, it shows up when using a KDE app like Dolphin or Konsole, but it doesn't show up when using a non-KDE app like VLC or Discord.

How to fix this ?

Thanks

On one of my machines, I am completely unable to log out. The behavior is slightly different depending on whether I am in Wayland or X11.

Wayland

1. Clicking log out and then OK in the log out window brings me back to the desktop.
2. Doing this again does the same thing
3. Clicking log out for a third time does nothing

X11

1. Clicking log out will lead me to a black screen with just my mouse cursor.

In my journalctl logs, I see:

I've filed an upstream bug for this but I was wondering if anyone else here was also experiencing the same issue.

Hey, I've been daily driving wayland since plasma 6 released. The improvements are stunning, and it's actually responsive on my multi monitor setup.

Main problem I've been having is with my drawing tablet. It works fine, but the touch/scroll wheel doesn't register. I can't find anything in the settings about it, so my first assumption is it's just not implemented yet. But no matter how many searches I do I can't find anyone with the same problem.

I only have this problem in wayland, in X11 it functions just as intended. It's not a huge issue, it just really screws with my muscle memory. I'd just love to be able to use my tablet properly with wayland so I don't have to switch back to the laggy mess that is X11.

Tablet: Wacom Intuos Pro
Distro: Garuda Linux (arch-based)
GPU: Nvidia RTX 3060
Plasma version: 6.0.3-1
libinput version: 1.25.0-1

Using dices in elementary school to play mathematical games allows to train logic and strategy. Before that, dice patterns need to be learned. "Number with dice" helps pupils in preschool to quickly count the dots present on a dice and offers practice to train dice patterns recognition, preparing children for the elementary school.
