[KDE] dnf output colors in Konsole
by Felix Miata 10 Dec '23

10 Dec '23

What controls the color of text output in terminals using DNF? Package names are coming in bright green that is barely visible on my yellow Konsole background. :( -- Evolution as taught in public schools is, like religion, based on faith, not based on science.

I recommend using the rpmfusion vuild of the nvidia drivers. See https://rpmfusion.org/Howto/NVIDIA You will have to unistall the drivers you from nvidia first. I have a bug raised against kde about issue staying logged: See https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2252447 What i ended up doing until this resolved is: sudo dnf downgrade kde-wayland sudo reboot Does that work for you?

Black screen after login to F39
by Michael Eager 03 Dec '23

03 Dec '23

I upgraded from Fedora 38 to Fedora 39 on an AMD Ryzen 5 5600 with Nvidia Geforce RTX 3050 graphics card. I'm running KDE Plasma-X11, not Wayland. I tried to install the GPU drivers several ways using repos/RPMs, but was not successful. I am using the Nvidia proprietary drivers. They support dual monitors with no problems; I've had problems with the nouveau driver and dual monitors in the past. I start the system in multi-user (CLI) mode and then run "startx" to start X11 and Plasma. (I started doing this in F38 because of sddm hanging, which I was not able to resolve.) When I log in with my user account and run startx, I get a black screen (extending across both monitors) with an X cursor. The cursor moves in response to the mouse, but neither left or right mouse button do anything. I can get to an alternate console using alt-F3 and kill the login. I have discovered a bit of a rain dance to get a working system. I can log in as root, run startx, and get a working KDE Plasma-X11 screen. Then I log out to the sddm screen and log in again with my user account. After this, everything (or almost everything) works correctly. I've checked the system logs and the Xorg log for any error or warning messages, but nothing looks incorrect or at all informative. Does anyone have any suggestions or insights into this problem? -- Michael Eager

KDE wayland recent update break with rpmfusion nvidia drivers
by Barry Scott 02 Dec '23

02 Dec '23

I have been seeing issues with being force out of plasma wayland back to the login prompt after a ~10s of logging in. I have raise 2 bugs: • fedora kde - 2252447 – kwin_wayland hangs with nvidia 545 driver desktop unusable 1 • rpmfusion nvidia - 6807 – The nvidia 545 driver crashes kwin_wayland 2 As the nvidia driver had updated from the 535 to the 545 versions I guessed they were at fault. But a comment from the nvidia driver maintainer suggested that its a recent KDE change that is responsible. I had already down grade from 545 to 535 nvidia drivers, but some issues persisted. Now I testing with downgraded kde-wayland and that seems to give be stablity. i.e. I can login and stay logged in. My next test, tomorrow, will be to put back the 545 drivers and see if old kde-wayland and lastest nvidia work. Anyone else seeing issues? Barry

Upgrade KDE Wayland Spin 38->39 KDE Background Screen Issue
by richard emberson 01 Dec '23

01 Dec '23

Upgrade KDE Wayland Spin 38->39 KDE Background Screen Issue KDE Screen Issue (or Plasma issue, or...) 1) Login screen comes up and can login. 2) KDE screen mix of colors and black... moving mouse and screen continues to redraw random colors (but, mostly black). 3) Bottom panel (in hide mode) comes up and looks normal. Top ToolBar is drawing like the screen (not normal) but I can tell its being drawn ontop of the screen background (different colors/black). 5) Firefox comes up rendering like normal. 6) Thunderbird asks for password and it comes up drawing like normal. 7) Using Mouse Right Button, menu come up (look normal) and can 8 "Open Terminal". Kconsole comes up like normal. 9) From Kconsole can launch alacritty multiple times all normal. 10) Background and ToolBar still not rendering correctly. 11) Can move mouse over ToolBar and popups appear. Can also click and launch/hide terminals, firefox, thunderbird when mouse if over their position in ToolBar. 12) I can render a jpeg photo in eog and it comes up just fine. With Fedora 38 KDE Spin I did not have this issue with the background or ToolBar. So, has anyone seen this behavior? Where do I start? Thanks.
