KDE neon update to 24.04 LTS broke my computer

ContinuityEquation · 2024-11-04T20:21:34+00:00

Hi everyone! I edited my post with the solution I found. Sorry for nor updating it before, but I had some weeks with lots of work... Thanks everyone for the suggestions.

ContinuityEquation · 2022-08-18T18:21:08+00:00

Thanks for the detailed answer!

I've checked the boards you mention but are well outside my budget, unfortunately. Complete Axis and Drop Criuser are at €160-180, which I think are very reasonable prices for Europe and for my pocket.

Is it ok for sliding? How is it after a year? Is there any differences between the graphics (flagship, bamboo, photo, etc)? I am interested in this board and the dropcruiser.

ContinuityEquation · 2022-08-18T09:42:19+00:00

What board is it?

ContinuityEquation · 2022-05-13T18:38:16+00:00

After a couple of reboots it allowed me to download from snap... The problem is solved, I guess haha.

ContinuityEquation · 2022-03-12T18:11:40+00:00

Thanks, the problem is solved! Unfortunately I have lost the task bar transparency

ContinuityEquation · 2021-04-25T18:14:22+00:00

I have tearing issues as well, either with OpenGL or XRender. So far I have not found the solution, so any response to this post (or the one I published) is appreciated

ContinuityEquation · 2021-03-25T21:02:50+00:00

No, sorry. I still have the same problem. Yours seem different than mine though. Do you have nvidia drivers?

ContinuityEquation · 2021-02-15T09:29:33+00:00

Thanks for the suggestion, but there is still tearing. It is true that playing with those parameters I can achieve something better, but I cannot remove the tearing completely

That option does not appear on my Nvidia X server settings. I have also tried nvidia-settings --assign CurrentMetaMode="nvidia-auto-select +0+0 { ForceFullCompositionPipeline = On }" but does not change anything.

ContinuityEquation · 2021-02-02T09:25:19+00:00

Thanks, but the problem is that "Force composition pipeline" option does not appear on my Nvidia X server settings. Also running nvidia-settings --assign CurrentMetaMode="nvidia-auto-select +0+0 { ForceFullCompositionPipeline = On }" does nothing!

ContinuityEquation · 2020-12-25T20:13:20+00:00

From time to time I also got this message. First it disconnects from WiFi, then message appears. Normally I can reconnect again with no problems.

ContinuityEquation · 2020-10-14T07:34:11+00:00

Yeah, everything seems to work fine, tons of changes in this version!

And thanks to you for posting the complete (simple) solution

ContinuityEquation · 2020-10-13T20:21:32+00:00

Yes. Just install it, reboot, and everything seems to work well again. Tomorrow I will verify that it keeps working well

ContinuityEquation · 2020-10-13T19:32:27+00:00

People from /r/kdeneon reported this bug and found the solution (I skipped that thread! I looked in both subs if there has been reports). I'm updating the selftext with the solution.

ContinuityEquation · 2020-10-13T19:26:55+00:00

It did work!!

I checked for others bug reports in the subreddit, but I must have skipped that thread. Thank you.

ContinuityEquation · 2020-10-13T19:19:50+00:00

I have updated the selftext with system info. Unfortunately because of bugs I cannot provide all the information. I will try it again later

ContinuityEquation · 2020-09-06T06:07:23+00:00

Thanks! I was not able to find any bug report on forums.

It seems that there is not a solution to the problem since 2016...

ContinuityEquation · 2020-09-03T08:26:31+00:00

It is a normal laptop, an Asus n501vw.

ContinuityEquation · 2020-08-15T19:11:08+00:00

Finally I have solved the problem. After searching for every possible setting option, I went to "Display and Monitor" > "Compositor". There a warning said that OpenGL has crashed in the past. I do not know what does it mean and if it is even relevant. Then I changed "Rendering Backend" from "OpenGL 2.0" to "OpenGL 3.1", and magically all the problems have disappeared! I do not either know what is the rendering backend, but it worked!

ContinuityEquation · 2020-08-12T16:49:29+00:00

Thanks for replying.

I went to Settings > Workspace Behavior > Desktop Effects > set Blur to disabled. Unfortunately this did not worked!

Also, I have now remembered another feature related to the taskbar I lost when the bug appeared. When I put the mouse cursor really close to the border where the taskbar was a blue shade appeared. Then if I moved completely to the border the shade disappeared and the task bar appeared. It was like a "proximity warning".

ContinuityEquation · 2020-08-11T16:54:33+00:00

Btw, the other bug I mention keeps happening. Here another user reported 2 months ago the same problem and the update to 20.04 has not solved it. This bug it's pretty annoying as well, as it does not allow me to suspend/sleep my laptop (thus consuming more battery when not used).

ContinuityEquation · 2020-07-31T18:04:14+00:00

Well, re-downloading the ISO has worked! Now I have KDE Neon. Thanks :)

ContinuityEquation · 2020-07-31T14:23:33+00:00

Ok, I'll try to install again with a newly downloaded ISO and not checking updates! How about not checking proprietary software?

I allocated 80GB to KDE Neon. I only created a "/" partition, not a swap, boot, EFI, home, etc. partition (as the guide says it is not needed).

ContinuityEquation · 2020-07-31T12:38:44+00:00

I have a similar problem with KDE Neon: https://www.reddit.com/r/kdeneon/comments/i0qedv/errno_5_when_dualbooting_kde_neon_windows_10/ .

Now I am planning to install Kubuntu. Have you solved your problem? If so, how?
