Changes paths as listed in kf5-config, deprecated configs?
Hey all, not sure how I managed this, but over the years I somehow managed to configure different paths which are listed in kf5-config. The for instance the cache path should be /home/matt/.cache, but kf5-config lists it in /mnt/data/matt/home/.cache. I'm sure this was intentional at one point but now i'm trying to fix up my partitions.
So my question is - how do I change the paths listed in kf5-config to where it should be on the root partition (/home/matt/...)?. I'll move the actual data from where it is onto the root partition, I just need to know how to change that paths are configured in kf5-config.
Cheers
kf5-config paths:
cache: /mnt/data/matt/home/.cache/ config: /mnt/data/matt/home/.config/:/mnt/data/matt/home/.config/kdedefaults/:/etc/xdg/ data: /mnt/data/matt/home/.local/share/:/usr/share/:/usr/local/share/ emoticons: /mnt/data/matt/home/.local/share/emoticons/:/usr/share/emoticons/ exe: /usr/lib/libexec/:/usr/bin/ html: /mnt/data/matt/home/.local/share/doc/HTML/:/usr/share/doc/HTML/
etc.. etc..
Edit: I just wanted to add that these paths are different from what is listed in qtpaths:
$ qtpaths --paths CacheLocation /home/matt/.cache/<APPNAME> $ qtpaths --paths ConfigLocation /home/matt/.config:/home/matt/.config/kdedefaults:/etc/xdg
Solved:
Turns out that it expands symlinked directories.

After an update I noticed discover was this weird yellow color, I opened settings and noticed it too was yellow, thinking it was some bug, I restarted PC, now everything is yellow. I tried inverting colors but that is something completely different. I'm not even sure what was updated to cause this.
I'm running mint 21.3 with plasma 5.27.11
Black OBS capture on KDE neon 6
Hi,
On KDE neon 6 using Wayland, OBS 30.1.2 is black when trying "Screen Capture (PipeWire)" or "Window Capture (PipeWire)", when launching from terminal, the following line stands out : > error: [pipewire] Error retrieving pipewire fd: GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.NoReply: Message recipient disconnected from message bus without replying
When asking the OBS community, I'm told :
> Sounds like a broken PipeWire and/or xdg-desktop-portal install. That would be a question for your distro's support channels
What to do ?
Thanks

SOLVED : the xdg-desktop-portal
package crashes since v1.18.3 (see issue report), so downgrading it fixes this.
Is there a way to make panel NOT float in Plasma 6?
Just updated to Plasma 6, and got a question: is there a way to make the bottom panel keep at the bottom (like when fullscreen windows are opened) and not float regardless of windows?
Just always stay there without moving, like in Plasma 5.
Or is it dictated by the theme/hardcoded into Plasma 6?
Is there any way to change this order in the Application Launcher?

How can I add "Sleep" and "Hibernate" options alongside these three options?

Title says it really, I really want to have both the sleep and hibernate option added to this part of my setup, but how? I use the Application Dashboard for when I click the meta button.
Am on NixOS if that has anything to say in the matter.
KMail reading pane
How do I get the preview pane in KMail to stay the same size? I can resize it, but whenever I restart the app, the preview pane is back to the default size.
How do I make sessions save the chosen folder?
There's something I don't understand here: why when I do "Open Folder" and then save the session, closing it and opening it again I'm left with nothing? Instead, if I open some files in subdirectories, the next time I reopen the session I'm just presented with the parent folders of those files, but I really needed to have the topmost directory to be able to access the whole tree structure whenever I reopen the session.
Is it possible? Or do I have to make a project?
