There is a UEFI Requirements section in the RISC-V Boot and Runtime Services Specification (BRS) specification. But this is optional and as far as I know most SBCs don’t use it. So yeah because of poor mainline Linux kernel and other components (like SBI) upstreaming by RISC-V systemproviders it is still a sad case that often you need a system specific image. So yeah I think we will need to wait until RISC-V breaks more into PC-like and server space before BRS and similar specs get used more.

On openSUSE they have snapper snapshotting integrated into package management, so it automatically creates a snapshot before and after updates. And if something would go wrong you could easily select an old snappshot to boot from in the GRUB menu.

Oh yeah. Can’t wait for this. Bad session management/restore is basically the only major thing I still miss a lot on Wayland. Hopefully Firefox and other apps will gain support for this soon (I guess all Qt/KDE apps will get support at once when they also add support to Qt and KDE Frameworks). Anyways I just opened the enhancement request for Firefox for this just hoping they will add support soon.

Yeah, most newcomers don’t even know about the spins and labs since they are quite hidden. So this is a great thing for getting Fedora KDE Spin on an equal footing in visibility and promotion.

Install pam_pkcs11 package, which contains the missing library

And even if you are paying for it… Unless the product is opensource and free as in freedom so you can for example self-host it, study the code, change the code (or contract someone else to change it for you) so the product runs just as you want.

My favourite Matrix client is NeoChat.

Well and behind it is stealing other peoples’ work (posts and comments, moderation and administration) and selling them as yours. The oldest capitalist criminal trick in the book: privatization AKA primitive accumulation AKA enclosure of the commons.

KDE Plasma on all my computers and also as desktop mode on Steam Deck. because it supports the latest technologies especially when it comes to graphics (HDR, VRR) also has best support for Wayland and multi-monitors. It looks great out of the box and it has a lot of features out of the box and I do not need to battle with adding some extensions that break with almost every update. KDE Plasma is also the most flexible desktop and I can set the workflow really to fit my desires and I can actually set many options and settings. And despite all these built-in features and configurability it still uses very few system resources and is very fast and smooth. Oh and the KDE community is one of the most welcoming I have met in FOSS world, and they listen to their users instead of the our way or the high way mentality I have so often encountered in GNOME for example. So yeah TLDR KDE Plasma is the one I like the most of all in the industry, even when compared to proprietary closed alternatives.

It’s way past time that UN bans Israel from their institutions and puts heavy sanctions on them for their genocide and other crimes against humanity.

KDE Plasma desktop and apps also have a Kiosk mode/framework for deployment and lockdown built-in, that can come in handy

Kiosk - Simple configuration management for large deployment

The Kiosk framework provides a set of features that makes it possible to easily and powerfully restrict the capabilities of a KDE environment.

Introduction

The Kiosk framework provides a set of features that makes it possible to easily and powerfully restrict the capabilities of a KDE environment based on user and group credentials. In addition to an introductory overview, this article covers configuration setting lock down, action and resource restrictions, assigning profiles to users and groups and more.

As far as I remember you can only compare after you upload a benchmark test/suite result to the site. For example when you upload a VkMark benchmark your result should be shown on that test page under Recent Test Results. You can then select your result and some other to compare them. And if you select to re-run a test suite from Latest Test Results the text at the top gives you the command to run it and automatically compare the results, e.g. for GPU CPU HDD Usage and Temperature test Unigine Heaven Fullscreen 2560x1440:

Compare your own system(s) to this result file with the Phoronix Test Suite by running the command: phoronix-test-suite benchmark 2410251-MRPI-241025885

And instead of the heaviest of sanctions imposed on genocidal Israel, some countries are even sending them more weapons. Leaders of all should imprisoned for war crimes and helping with warcrimes and crimes against humanity.

Better to use Kubuntu edition, much better desktop and less crap that is nowdays in Ubuntu.

Already reported on bugs.kde.org.

I hope not. Had very bad experience with these and toxicity they enabled on Xitter and one of the main reasons why I left it for mastodon quite early. I would much more like to see if they focused on making it possible to also migrate posts when you change an instance/server.

I use the testing ebuilds system-vide.

Best to report the issue you have with as much information as possible to bugs.kde.org
