Is this correct and is this the intended result when Plasma5 was foisted on Tumbleweed? Plasma 5 is the default desktop: however you may have installed something else, or there may be some left-overs of session files present.
As I wrote, I installed TW from the DVD 20150123 and have been updating the installation regularly (using 'zypper refresh' and 'zypper up'). What could I have installed "something else" or even have "left-overs" when it was a clean install of TW?
zypper se -i session will tell if you do,
Sorry, will tell me what if I do? I have already done all the updates and they are history. Are you suggesting that I start from the beginning and run the command you suggest after every time I run 'zypper up'?
at least wrt to the packages installed on the system.

Is this the norm or is there some secret tweak that one needs to make in It is no longer supported upstream for technical reasons (after discussions in the development list).
"Upstream" mentioned once again :-( . Who are these "upstream" and why is what they prescribed followed in a complacent manner without first asking users what the _users_ want?
What has happened to the nice widgets/icons/whatever which are used in oS 13.2 but which are now simple-looking "stick figures" in Tumbleweed's Plasma-Blasta? If you mean Oxygen icons (and the current one is called Breeze) those are still available. Install oxygen-icon-theme and set it in System Settings. For window decorations etc, the package you want is oxygen5-style.
Thank your for this information. I shall apply this soonest.
something not resembling a child's drawing or is this the way of the future for oS 42? I doubt you're getting responses to this if this is your tone..
Ah, spitting the dummy because of a slight criticism? Nobody would write "criticisms" if there was no regression from what has been available to users for a long time - but then, suddenly, taken away from them.
environment I thought that I would try out GNOME DE now that Plasma-Blasta look like a Windows10 wannabe. I just find this funny,
Well, I am not laughing.
given that P5 was around before W10 was announced...
This information may have been known and relevant to you perhaps but not to me because I don't care about Windows (for the most part) and I didn't know or cared about Plasma5. I have often wondered what the interaction between the "upstream" people who control what appears in, say, openSUSE, and those who write code for Windows. Are they the same people? One cannot help speculating because of the history of S.u.S.E./Novell/Microsoft/Attachmate.
Question 5. Plasma-Blasta has drastically altered the various menus form the way the menus are shown in the real KDE desktop environment. The menus in a way Do you mean the menu layouts? Currently we're using upstream categories, However there's discussion on how to improve this.
I am glad that there is a discussion going on about this. Please tell "upstream" that what was shown in KDE4 is fine and should be respected because the layout(s) is/are sensible. A question here: are the "upstream" people doing Plasma5 the same (or close) to the people who were "upstream" and created KDE4?
