https://bugzilla.suse.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1222281 Bug ID: 1222281 Summary: wall / write don't work in plasma6 Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE Tumbleweed Version: Current Hardware: x86-64 OS: openSUSE Tumbleweed Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: KDE Workspace (Plasma) Assignee: opensuse-kde-bugs@opensuse.org Reporter: rs.opensuse@spitzenpfeil.org QA Contact: qa-bugs@suse.de Target Milestone: --- Found By: --- Blocker: --- The plasma background-service "write daemon" claims to be on. Anything I do with "wall" and "write" is ignored ( mesg y ) It does not work with: * latest tumbleweed installation ( 20240329 ) * tumbleweed kde live iso ( openSUSE-Tumbleweed-KDE-Live-x86_64-Snapshot20240329-Media ) The very same thing works as expected (notification popup in the panel) with: * Debian bookworm + plasma5 * Leap 15.5 KDE live iso ( openSUSE-Leap-15.5-KDE-Live-x86_64-Build13.15-Media ) -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

Is there some alternative way already possible? Not sure how useful this currently is beyond some rare uses of wall/write. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
