Meanwhile, the CMake files for #systemsettings make no mention of the #KUserFeedback library, I know, I looked and even built it from source myself, to check.
#systemsettings #kuserfeedback #kubuntu #eaon #plasma #kde
I find the new #KDE #Plasma 5.18 stuff slightly misleading, with regards to #KUserfeedback . The blurb mentions that systemsettings5 would have a new option for opting in to user feedback, but having installed from the backports PPA on #Eaon #Kubuntu and previously built the latest git version of #Kate the only app that uses KUserFeedback is the aforementioned Kate, and only because I downloaded and built the feedback library myself, it's an optional dependency in the CMake file, for Kate...
#kde #plasma #kuserfeedback #eaon #kubuntu #kate
On the bright side, I can read emails from GitHub and GitLab and other sites again in the newer #Evolution, the one that shipped with #Disco had decided that white text on a white background was the way to go, while this #Eaon version manages black text on a white background.
#evolution #disco #eaon #kubuntu
Don't think I've noticed one of these so far, so looks like getting rid of xdg-dexktop-proxy-gtk might have fixed that.
Though there is mention that a newer version of xdg-desktop-proxy might fix a similar issue.
So far so good re: ACPI sensor issues, so I guess GKrellm was doing something that the kernel doesn't like.
Unfortunately also getting issues with reading temperature sensors #ACPI related stuff #Eaon #Kubuntu Which means the laptop may not shutdown properly later. Which I had hoped the newer kernel would have fixed, since I'd been getting the same issue with some of the #Disco kernels. BuggerΒ‘:*
Really getting bored with the constant: 'Jan 11 20:39:04 localhost xdg-desktop-por[3365]: Failed to get application states: GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.portal.Error.Failed: Could not get window list: Cannot invoke method; proxy is for the well-known name org.gnome.Shell without an owner, and proxy was constructed with the G_DBUS_PROXY_FLAGS_DO_NOT_AUTO_START flag' stuff in #Eaon #Kubuntu
So, bitten the bullet since #Disco will be end-of-life on the 23rd of the month. Now running #Eaon
Very carefully updated it via a multi-user.target console rather than risk running the graphical updater.
Next step is to work out what apps I build myself will need to be re-compiled and what will just run out of the box.
Already know I don't need to build GCC, since Eaon ships the latest version that I was building myself on Disco. So that's some space I can claim back.
Well, about time...
