anyone knows what the sleeping cat in the thumbnail is?

I’ve never seen this widget before

The comments in the OP link say it’s Catwalk. I don’t know what Catwalk is though. 🙂

Edit: it’s a CPU monitor.

thank you so much!

Antiochus,

Weren’t the devs also supposed to be adding the ability to rebind the overview to just the super key (like GNOME)? Is that still in the works?

Zamundaaa,

It’s been possible for a long time, but yes, now you can do it intuitively in the shortcuts GUI

I’m beta testing 6.1 on Arch and can confirm that the feature is present and working great.

boredsquirrel,

System Settings’ Background Services page is no longer actually visible in System Settings by default; everything here is an implementation detail

Sooo… will Plasma convert all these services to systemd services that can actually be disabled in a normal way?

That settings page was always only semi useful as the most important ones were missing. But disabling stuff like Orca, KDEConnect, accessibility, legacy adapters etc. should be possible.

github.com/boredsquirrel/kde-systemd-services

This doesnt work currently as KDE has multiple mechanisms to launch these (and maybe I dont really know how to do systemd stuff)

you can still get to it by searching for it in KRunner

boredsquirrel,

Yes but normally this is a first step in removing it

You can still do it as a first step.

Since the menu is usually only accessed extremely rarely, it is fine having a slightly more inconvenient way to reach it.

boredsquirrel,

System Settings’ Printers page now guides you through the process of installing the system-config-printer package to improve printer detection, if it wasn’t pre-installed by your distro (Mike Noe, Plasma 6.1. Link)

This is really good! It may still be needed for stuff like plasma-workspace-extras, the sddm kcm, the flatpak kcm etc?

Brickardo,

Dolphin now includes a feature to move the selected items into a new folder, all at once

This one feels awkward

Hadriscus,

Why ?

Brickardo,

It feels to me that it’s looking to replace the Cut and Paste operations. This makes perfect sense for a tactile device, but I don’t feel like Dolphin is tactile ready - other KDE apps like Index intend to cover that ground instead.

This isn't a replacement for cut & past. It's for creating a new folder and moving the files into it, not to an existing folder.
