is there a way to remove all start menu categories and have only a big list off all entries like in win 10?

I did some fair bit of ranting and complaining on r/linuxsucks, mostly because I was frustrated at how annoying Wayland is sometimes when I have to go configure something myself.

I was also pissed that KDE worked so flawlessly and it hasn't crashed or errorred out in the recent releases. It just works. 

I thought that I'll find something better in something else. I tried Hyprland and came straight back to KDE. 

Yeah, KDE might be the most stable Wayland experience I've had. Wayland has its quirks and issues (electron mostly) but KDE is solid as hell. I think I'll use it for a while. 

Basically, I got bored that KDE wasn't bugging out. 

Yeah I know I'm a weird guy but I'm just impressed. 

(Am I the only one who thinks breeze looks kinda cluttered? And the icons? No offense, but I think breeze can be improved.)

I have three power profiles on my laptop: `power-saver`, `balanced`, `performance`.

I prefer to use `power-saver` most of the time, to keep the hardware cool and the fan quiet. `balanced` when I need to run a CPU-heavy program. I have never ever wanted to use `performance`: according to my test it doesn't result in better performance than `balanced` and it overheats the hardware and keeps the fan on..

I've been training myself to use `^B` to switch profile, but it cycles between all three. I need to be careful not to switch to `performance` and a few times I left it there by mistake. Is there any way to disable the `performance` profile, so that KDE only switches between `power-saver` and `balanced`?

Can I disable the `performance` power profile?

Why does auto mount not work? I have it checked to auto mount on startup, but every startup I have to manually go to the drive and type in the password.

As always I woke up, get to the computer and got my updates ‘sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade’. I got an error message ‘/usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)’ with the problem of unable to install plasma-desktoptheme:amd64 6.2.3-2. I tried purge and stuff then i rebooted. Now my login screen is broken and I have no internet connection. I ve tried all(from tty, dns, hosts…), all I get is ‘failed to fetch temporary failure resolving’. I can provide logs, can anyone help me?

I have deleted my Breeze theme for SDDM (don't ask me how and why. lol) and I can't find it anywhere. I have tried `sudo pacman -S plasma-workspace`, but it is not getting installed. Any other way to install it?  
Thank you

Hi, I hope this is the right place for this...

I have a Samsung S24 and a MacBook Pro.

To get photos from my phone into my MacBook photo folder, my current workflow is as follows"

1. Connect phone to laptop over USB

2. Unlock phone and open Samsung Smart Switch on MacBook

3. In Samsung Smart Switch, open the file explorer and copy the Camera folder to the Mac desktop

4. Using Exiftool, put all the photos into 'Day' folders - all photos taken on the same date in the same folder.

All a bit of a faff!

So I came across DigiKam, and it looks like it should be able to deal with steps 2-4 automagically. 

Once connected, DigiKam has recognised my phone, and it sits in the Import menu as "Samsung Galaxy models (MTP)". However, that's when it all stops. I click on Import, and the red bar across the bottom: "Failed to connect to the camera. Please make sure it is connected properly and turned on." After unlocking the phone again, I click 'retry', and DigiKam crashes.

Every time, any ideas?

Cheers,

I was messing around with my panel configuration. I created a top panel and a dock panel to make it look more like macOS. I decided I didn’t like it and went back to having just one panel at the bottom. I moved the icons from the top panel to the bottom, and now the app icons are smaller than I want them to be. I’ve removed the panels and re-added the apps, but no matter what I do, the icons remain small. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

Navigating the kickoff works for a moment, then the side keys stop working, while the up and down keys continue to work fine.

Can I somehow bulk-tag different events?

Like "if description contains 'Seminar', add to 'Seminar'", same for lesson, practice, etc.

Either in KOrganizer directly or within an ics-file?

Would help keeping track tremendously.

Thanks in advance!
