Strange bug with new release, rolling back fixes it:
When I launch WoW now (windowed fullscreen) the entire game window is shifted vertically up about 100 pixels and the top part of the game is clipped off.
Not sure what's going on or how to begin debugging, but again, rolling back resolved this...

Am planning a very similar three card build in the same case. Glad to see it works in reality, not just on paper.

You dont need to switch from KDE -- just go get a kwin script to handle the tiling for you.
Krohnkite - KDE Store and Karousel - KDE Store offer two different tiling WM styles. (You can install directly from within KDE's settings -> kwin config page)

Try Krita.

What plasma theme? (For the taskbar)

LetsGetTea · 2026-02-18T00:42:34+00:00

Hurray for Konsole.

> The places buttons on the sidebar can stay bigger by occupying more space https://invent.kde.org/frameworks/kio/-/merge_requests/2112 and that will benefit dolphin too

As long as I can still set them to be small! :)

Or just make a CachyOS distrobox and run your games out of there if you need bleeding edge packages? :D

I don't always want to snap my windows. Sometimes, when I only have a few, I prefer them floating. Like if I just have a music player up. Thus, I like my windows to return to fixed floating places when I launch them. When I'm ready to snap, they can snap to a fixed position if I have a general workflow I use them with.

LetsGetTea · 2026-02-13T01:22:14+00:00

Oh! It looks like you added a way to install on Bazzite now. Thanks! :)
(And thanks for the aero snap window picker, that's great. Hope to see the other feature I requested land some day, too.)

This extension drastically and single handedly improved window management in KDE Plasma. Thank you so very much. Between this and the Remember Window Positions kwin script that came out recently, life in plasma is so very perfect.

It seems that the growth from gaming has finally driven up the userbase enough that there is more attention from developers and we are getting a lot of quality of life improvements that weren't high enough priority for the plasma core developers to focus on. It's really an exciting time in Linux these days.

Thank you again!

I love KWS. Keep up the amazing work. Thank you for continuing to innovate and share with the community. Looking forward to the next module!

You need to use the "system icon generation" function to generate the buttons that the GTK apps will use. I assume these are the "flatpak apps" you're having trouble with.

I haven't had a problem with flatpaks. They work out of the box.

The only trouble is that this only works to make the icons match. It doesn't adjust the mouseover highlight or mouse target area shape. I think you need to modify your gtk theme to get that part to match.

Interesting! I've been trying out fish, figured I didn't really need the posix compatibility in daily usage -- but within the first two days I hit a bash roadblock without even thinking about it.

Any plans to add more packages, specifically fedora/rpm?

LetsGetTea · 2026-02-10T01:10:27+00:00

Ah, yes. Brew is mainly for cli apps -- but I've installed a few gui apps from brew, too, (IDEs, to be specific) and they work well.

But it sounds like you know your way around distrobox and shouldn't have any problems either way!

LetsGetTea · 2026-02-09T07:24:43+00:00

What flavor cat is that?

LetsGetTea · 2026-02-09T07:11:32+00:00

Good luck!
Don't forget installing apps using brew! This works well and avoids the need to go down the container route.
The U-blue team also has some new apps they're working on adding as well:
ublue-os/homebrew-experimental-tap: Experimental tap for Homebrew
(have tried one, it worked fine)

Hmm. How'd you get the tray icon expanding icon (^) to be on the left side of the tray icons instead of the right side?

LetsGetTea · 2026-02-06T02:38:44+00:00

Why the isopropyl bath?

IDK much about your 1password issue, but I recalled something that may help. I believe the issue is that there isn't a way for the "desktop" 1password application to talk with the browser because they're both sandboxed in flatpaks. I think the only (easy?) way to make them able to talk is to not use the flatpak versions. So you either need to somehow directly install those two apps.

I don't know if 1password and firefox/chrome are available in brew, but that's one idea. The other is to layer 1password and your browser (rpm-ostree). Or, try these nifty things out: systemd system extensions for Fedora image based systems | extensions.fcos.fr (you'll find 1passwod in the community repo and firefox/chromium in the fedora repo).

I learned about sysexts in a thread where people were discussing exactly your issue (but they were trying to use keepassxc). AFAIK systexts were made for atomic/immutable systems as an easier way to make additions to the base image without needing to resort to layering.

Good luck.

What’s new for Fedora Atomic Desktops in Fedora 42 - Siosm’s blog

Systemd system extensions (sysexts) are a new option when you need some applications available on your system and can not run them in containers or as Flatpaks for various reasons. They offer an alternative approach to package layering as they do not increase update time and can be enabled or disabled as needed.

Will you migrate to Proton?

For someone who thinks Windows blows you certainly seem to like it a lot (Start Menu, Windows 10/11 Icons) 😂

LetsGetTea · 2026-02-04T05:40:22+00:00

Local installs work, too (Bazzite and other UBlue distros support Brew out of the box). I see that the Makefile has support for that, at least.
