Running Kubuntu 17.10 for a few Days now. I did't run into any Problems I expect from anything KDE. In fact, I like it. It's still kinda bloated but this also improved. It's like the real upgrade from KDE3. I would like to say "Nice! Good job!" but KDE4 did exist. I will never forgive nor forget the KDE Project for that and all the drama that came with it.
So Sup Forums, what am I missing? What is the ugly in KDE5 I'm not aware, yet? I'm not as stupid to believe there isn't any, it's KDE after all.

When you add a Wi-Fi network, you have to enter the password twice, unless you disable KWallet. If you disable KWallet, some applications that communicate with a server where you need to authenticate (ownCloud) might ask for your password at every login. KDE saves Wi-Fi passwords in KWallet per default, which means you need to log in and unlock the wallet before it starts connecting. Slideshow wallpapers consume immense amounts of CPU cycles. And for the love of god, lock your widgets.
Ryan Fisher
oh? fucking up something as simple as connecting to a wifi network? A CPU cycle eating Wallpaper? Now, that's the KDE I know!

Kubuntu used to be buggy as fuck but they really ironed out most of the bugs recently. I installed it yesterday and I was impressed.
That seems to be fixed.
Parker Evans
Which one of those? I'm on 5.11.5 and I don't know of any fixes concerning these bugs.
Thomas Cook
I'm not getting KWallet spam. I just installed it yesterday (with updates on install).
Carson Richardson
The spam is only an issue if you have KWallet disabled. I have KWallet enabled with a blank password, which only leaves the 2 Wi-Fi issues. Do you know of any fix for those sans writing a patch that kicks KWallet out of plasma-nm?
Daniel Lopez
No. Sorry senpai. Also, when I turned on my computer from suspend it didn't ask me for a password.

Just connected a bluetooth headset. It does a lot of neat things like adding a sound device and pairing worked too, but of course no sound. well... to be fair I haven't seen any linux distro that could handle it since sound on linux sucks.
Liam Lee
I sedded a patch that just replaces every check if KWallet is enabled with false and it works.
Blake Scott
I have a bluetooth headset that works fine on Linux.
Mason Diaz
works on my machine

Kubuntu is the wrost KDE implementation. Stay alway from this. Is bugged has fuck!
Hunter James
those posts again. I actually got two bluetooth headsets and multiple bluetooth devices. either you're lying or you have "fixes" you should have sent upstream a long time ago. It sure as hell won't work "out of the box" and I don't know how many hours I spend in the past trying to get it to work. Anyway it's boring but you'll get 4/10 because you made reply and I did feel a bit tired reading it.

You should try using Discovery.
Brandon Jones
I doubt, NASA would let me.
Zachary Rogers
i just updated debian to 9 and the kde plasma is simply great, so comfy and nice looking, at least have a decent view of GNU/Linux is possible
Luke Peterson
That's a blatant lie. I removed KWallet right after install and everything is fine.
Daniel Bailey
boo
Hudson Long
this,
Go directly to the source, so
Either use Opensuse or KDE Neon.

>What is the ugly in KDE5 I'm not aware, yet? Clearly you have not sampled the eldritch horror that is KMail.

Damn nigga U stable
Easton Price
indeed, I never set up mail on test systems. what's going on with kmail?
Ryan Reed
Do you have bluez-firmware? It's proprietary but my bluetooth headset didn't connect properly until I installed it
Jackson Young
granted I've only used kubuntu and mint with kde but I can't just right click an image and set as wallpaper or drag an image into the desktop configurator to use as a wallpaper
Jose Long
...yeah and I also tried to turn it off and on again. .. are you done giving tech support or do you even install gentoo?
Leo Moore
I prefer OpenSUSE to Ubuntu, but KDE is alright. I'm more of a GNOME guy because it works better with my work flow.

Can I run a LAMP stack on my android phone and host tiny rss on my phone?
Hunter Bennett
