http://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1004954 Bug ID: 1004954 Summary: Update from Leap 42.1 to 42.2 beta3 Plasma fails to conserve settings and has several functional problems. Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE Distribution Version: Leap 42.2 Hardware: x86-64 OS: SUSE Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: KDE Workspace (Plasma) Assignee: opensuse-kde-bugs@opensuse.org Reporter: stakanov@freenet.de QA Contact: qa-bugs@suse.de Found By: --- Blocker: --- After updating the O.S. when starting Plasma you can observe following behaviour: a) desktop background if set if lost. It appears that the picture files are there, however cannot be seen by the system. If you download them again and install them you are prompted if you want to overwrite the file, it therefore exists. You confirm but the picture file remains invisible and cannot be selected. You do not confirm the same happens. Thus the photos that where used beforehand are lost as background and cannot be reinstalled afterwards. This "survives" as problem also if you logout the session and login again. b) icons form third party are shown in the list but partially not used. If you set the icon settings to breeze, it will say yes, but eventually will not honour the settings (in particular if you have the folder view with desktop and trash from 42.1 on the desktop left. c) The Meteo plasmoid of 42.1 is taken over but presents a malformed display with the temperature displayed outside and far from the plasmoid itself. Mouse cursor no problem. Good. Akonadi started O.K. and application seem to work. Good. Screen resolution: the resolution (during update on virtual machine kvm) was NOT taken over from previous install which cause the task bar (set to hide automatic) to fail. This is not dramatic as you can call the system settings via the run dialogue and you can set successfully a suitable resolution (and the bar turns) but this can be a challenge to "I just am a user" users or to first timers that installed the previous O.S. first and think to migrate in about a few weeks after release. So this would be good to be looked after. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
