  • [KDE neon 6.3] I have to wait for the login screen to black out and reappear before logging in

    Jump

  • sorry I was really busy this week, didnt have time to look into this.

    The issue seems to happen in qt6 xcb so you could try switching sddm to run on wayland, which might bypass the issue (from Arch wiki):

    Create the file /etc/sddm.conf.d/10-wayland.conf with the following content:

     
        
[General]
DisplayServer=wayland
GreeterEnvironment=QT_WAYLAND_SHELL_INTEGRATION=layer-shell

[Wayland]
CompositorCommand=kwin_wayland --drm --no-lockscreen --no-global-shortcuts --locale1

    This requires layer-shell-qt to be installed, preferably versions 6.x which kde neon probably has in their repos (its on 5.x on base ubuntu).

    Other than that, on sddm's issue repo I found two similar issues: #1761 and #1468, though both have no resolutions yet.

  • Repartition again plus Printer

    Jump

  • Updates taking that much space is a bit surprising. I used to run linux mint on a 20 gb partition and usually had 3-4 gb space free. Does Linux mint comes pre-installed with flatpaks (you check with flatpak list)?

    But 20 gb is on the very low side, you will run into issues on updates. You probably need to extend the linux partition by at least 10 gb.

    For the printer issue, check the status of the cups service (sudo systemctl status cups).

  • Breeze for VSCode no longer works for the header

  • I think you can disable the new header bar in VSCode (iirc from View).

  • Fedora Linux 42 released

  • The old one was too confusing for new users. It wasn't clearly step by step like all the other installers on linux.

  • [KDE neon 6.3] I have to wait for the login screen to black out and reappear before logging in

    Jump

  • Not sure tbh but probably anything around the time you experience the issue. Check the time when the issue occurs, then look at the logs from around that time for any errors warnings. That should at least give you a clue.

    Fedora Linux 42 Final is GO for 2025-04-15 - devel - Fedora mailing-lists

  • Currently most cooperate linux companies are not in the business of selling linux desktop itself. Rather its linux for servers, administration, embedded things (like cars), and other enterprisey stuff. So at least at the moment they are not looking to profit of linux desktop users directly which has saved us from enshittiffication attempts.

    But even if they in the future attempt to do something fishy, that most users dont agree with, I think by the virtue of how stuff works on linux it will be very easy for people to move to something else or a fork, and still get 95-99% of the same experience. This in turn will force companies to think twice before doing something like this.

    A good example here is canonical/Ubuntu who has made questionable decisions in the past and each time they had to take it back. Even now, Snap due to its use of a centralized store is almost universally shunned by the linux community and is only supported maintained by canonical. While Flatpak is supported by the wider linux community with people from different projects contributing to it (though I sometimes worry about everyone centralizing on Flathub to the point where they are actively discourage other projects from launching/maintaining their own stores/repos).

    This is why we need to build and champion tech that is resistant to control and enshittiffication. Then we dont have to worry too much about who is developing it.

  • are you using any sddm themes? splash screens?

    Also check/share the logs (you can use ksystemlogs or gnome logs if you prefer guis).

  • I think x86 is basically the only platform that's used ACPI

    ARM and x86. From wikipedia:

    Revision 5.0 of the ACPI specification was released in December 2011,[15] which added the ARM architecture support.

  • ETA: Sorry I was wrong. ACPI doesnt solve this*. Arm SystemReady SR/ES does and its why Ampere cpus can boot on linux on release without too much work.

    Sadly its currently only used for iot/server stuff but hopefully it will eventually make its way to consumer tech. We need to raise awareness on this and pressure companies to commit to this standard.

    *From what I read, WoA has full ACPI support but qcoms ACPI apis only work on Windows. [1 (ms link)][2]

    Yeah its really unfortunate that most arm chips/devices use DTs instead of conforming to ACPI. However with ARM becoming more prominent on servers (and desktops), Im hoping this changes. There is now a push for ACPI on Arm since thats what companies running Arm on servers want. Ampere server cpus eg have ACPI support and arm now has docs on ACPI. I hope qualcomm is also forced to support ACPI. I think they will have to do it if they want to see their cpus being used in data centers and the like.
