Are they not drop in replacement for each other?

FYI, the current plan is that F21 will be providing Plasma 5 (apparently, that's now the official name) only in an unofficial add-on repository (in Copr and/or on kde-redhat), and it will only become the default in F22.

I am still using the Chrome Stable. Another problem I am having is that the Chrome won't start automatically anymore. There is no autostart file.

It won't be available in stable until Chrome 37 rolls to stable, which will most likely be sometime in August. Sorry....not the same issue and not related specifically to KDE but you seem to be more aware of chrome work than most. In the recent versions of chrome, including 37, libpepflashplayer hangs when loading certain videos such as the live stream on mlb.com. I've reported it via the reporting feature in chrome but haven't seen any progress in the past several months. Any way to check on or raise the issue's level? -- Do not condemn the judgment of another because it differs from your own.

I did go to mlb.com and played several videos (although none were live stream) and didn't have any issues. Reporting the issue from within chrome doesn't provide an issue #. Regular videos play fine. It is only the live stream and the replays of full games. Like from this page.... http://mlb.mlb.com/mediacenter/index.jsp Is there a way to file a "bugzilla" for chrome to get a tracking number? -- Do not condemn the judgment of another because it differs from your own.
