Every time I setup a new Linux system and try to get desktop switching configured, I feel like I have to run the blasted full "Tour de Settings" course ...

* Settings → Mouse → Screen edges
* Settings → Window management → Window behavior → Titlebar actions → Mouse wheel
* Desktop & wallpaper → Mouse actions → Add action: vertical-scroll

Ist #linux im geschäftlichen Umfeld brauchbar für #endanwender? Nächste Woche finden wir das raus. Eine unserer Vertrieblerinnen hat bei mir mal dieses hübsche OS gesehen und wollte das auch (#kde #plasma mit Theme).

Da sie nicht mehr als #remmina und #firefox unterwegs braucht, gehen wir dieses Experiment mal ein. Wird spannend, bisher haben sie nur Linux Thin Clients mit einem Remmina Icon auf dem Desktop - wirklich Linux nutzen ist das ja nicht. Ich werde berichten

Man, I love #kde. The fact that I can just go into the default system settings and change caps lock to esc without any 3rd party tool or whatever is *chef's kiss #linux

If everything goes to plan, then the new release can be there as soon as 2025-04-15 !!

It's the first release of Fedora Linux, that will promote the KDE desktop to full "Edition" Status (Same as the Gnome Desktop variant).

I've already been running F42 KDE edition on my daily devices and didn't envounter any issues so far

Also running some VServers with Fedora CoreOS 42 on Hetzner Cloud, which is also a joy to work with :-)

I built a latency meter with an Arduino and a photo transistor to answer one question: Is click-to-photon latency higher on Wayland than on X11?

And the answer is: Yes, actually.

42 ms on X11, compositing off
56 ms on X11, compositing on
64 ms on Wayland
71 ms on Windows 10

Tested with Plasma 6.3.4 and Firefox 137. I will improve my methods and confirm these numbers. See replies for details.
