Opinions about Plasma 5 in 13.2RC1
Hi. I had installed OpenSuSE 13.2 RC1 in a virtual machine with Plasma 5 and I want to give my impressions: - In the installation there is not the option to add a repository with KDE 5 applications, in my opinion it would be a good idea to add one. I know they are not stable but a person wants to try Plasma 5, probably, he/she wants to try the apps. - I didn't see the possibility to install sddm instead of kdm. If you are installing Plasma 5 looks more consistently. - One time installed the OS with Plasma 5, you have to configure the repos manually. It could be good to give the option in community repositories. - You can't change the color scheme, it is always OpenSuSE colors. - I have various crashes of Plasma, in composer I use OpenGL 3.1. - I use galician language, in order to can configure it in System Settings, I had to install kde4-l10n-gl. It is a llittle confusing. - I installed the KDE5 versions of apps (ark, dolphin, ...). The icons in favorites in kickoff didn't work, I had to erase them and add again. I don't know it is useful, I hope so. -- Todo el mundo quiere ir al cielo pero nadie se quiere morir - Anónimo -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-testing+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-testing+owner@opensuse.org

Thanks for sharing your experiments, I presume it could be more useful in opensuse-kde mailing list where most of the kde packager have a look ... -- Bruno Friedmann Ioda-Net Sàrl www.ioda-net.ch openSUSE Member & Board, fsfe fellowship GPG KEY : D5C9B751C4653227 irc: tigerfoot -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-testing+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-testing+owner@opensuse.org
