"What's New In The Revised Blue Angel Criteria" 💙

Learn about what the changes mean for #KDE / #FOSS:

https://eco.kde.org/blog/2024-08-26-revised-blue-angel-criteria/

The Blue Angel #ecolabel is the official #environmental label awarded by the German government.

Now #smartphone apps & client-server systems can be certified as #sustainable 🌻, along with desktop software like #Okular as before. And more!

STK is the main reason I started to draw Konqi, so uhh, this was the first drawing, with Katie featuring as Cheerleader.

9th graders learn Linux for the environment!

9th graders learn Linux for the environment!

Last week in #Hannover, #KDEEco joined Akademie der Spiele, an event for 200+ students with 20+ career/cultural workshops.

Students salvaged dozens of computers with #OpenSource #FreeSoftware.

They learned about the #environmental costs of #eWaste and device production.

They presented their work to peers and teachers!

Some even played games🚀

We're proud of our students - congrats for all you achieved in only 5 days!

This week in KDE: System Settings modernization and Wayland color management

AMD + Wayland - sometimes Firefox gets on top of all other windows, specially XWayland, and only killing kwin_wayland_r fixes it

Pretty much the title. I have been trying to pinpoint what's causing it and the proper logs, but the only thing in common so far in all times it has happened is firefox and another xwayland application are present.

logs show several errors, including this one - but how could I file a bug report, if I don't know how to reproduce it ?

Aug 15 17:09:37 hostname konsole[3721]: The cached device pixel ratio value was stale on window update. Please file a QTBUG which explains how to reproduce.

My Okular settings are messed up. What do? Tried purging the package, tried clearing okular files from "~/.config", no relevant output opening from terminal, nothing in man page bout getting more feed

My Okular settings are messed up (menus are broken, details probably not important to describe).

I tried purging the package and reinstalling, tried clearing okular files from "~/.config", got no relevant output opening from terminal, saw nothing in man page bout getting more feedback...?

What do?

I couldn't find anything on the man page about, like, a flag to get it to tell you what files it's reading when it starts up or anything like that? ( the only output I get when I open it from the commandline is: > Unable to open QuickAnnotatingTools XML definition > kf.xmlgui: Shortcut for action "mainToolBar" "Show Toolbar" set with QAction::setShortcut()! Use KActionCollection::setDefaultShortcut(s) instead.

)

Kubuntu vs Neon?
  • @sic_semper_tyrannis
    Tuxedo OS is Ubuntu based and runs Plasma 6. Maybe worth a look?
    @Guenther_Amanita

  • Kubuntu vs Neon?
  • The program itself is an AppImage but I couldn't figure out how to get Ant+ devices (cycle trainer and heartrate strap) working on a distro besides GC's documentation for Ubuntu. It worked for me on Mint, I just want to transition to a Plasma DE. Does this look like something you would know how to get working on Kinoite?

  • "What's New In The Revised Blue Angel Criteria" 💙
  • @be4foss
    Is there any information on which software is in the works to apply for blue angel label next?

    (Also, the css on the website looks broken. header and menu are probably supposed to be centered, no?)

  • @tragicomedy @thisweekinkde @[email protected] @[email protected]
    Hmm... strange, at my Plasma 6.1.4 + Qt 6.7.3 is running without issues of stability. Before sometimes the desktop crash, but restart imideatly without impact to the running programs.

  • This week in KDE: per-monitor brightness control and “update then shut down”
  • @thisweekinkde @[email protected] @[email protected] > When there’s a pending offline system update, you’ve already got the option to update and then reboot, or just reboot and skip the update.

    I saw this being discussed earlier and I'm glad that this is going to be actually merged! Can't wait for new version. Tho it would be cool if devs focused on stability. Plasma is incredibly unstable in comparison to other DEs . That's pretty sad

  • This week in KDE: per-monitor brightness control and “update then shut down”
  • @alavi @thisweekinkde @[email protected] @[email protected]
    Yes, or working at all.
    At my notebook the brightness is so low, and can't controlled with KDE. This was not happening with kde 5.27.11 🤔.
    I need to check again the bug report's.
