After standard openSUSE Tumbleweed KDE Plasma 6.2.5 deployment add extra repos . It's important to use a higher priority (which means a lower value) than the main openSUSE repos and issue as root zypper dup --allow-vendor-change for the switch .

Enable epel10 from rpmfusion rather then straight attempt `sudo dnf install epel-release -y`. So run `sudo dnf -y install https://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/epel-release-latest-10... ` . Enable the "code ready builds": $ sudo dnf config-manager --set-enabled crb . . . .

This setup via Pamac GUI on CachyOS looks a bit different from the way proposed finally in https://github.com/mylinuxforwork/dotfiles/wiki/installation Pamac GUI makes steps of installation a bit more clear and brings some more light on what is going on behind the scene .

Start setup below via remote ssh login into Manjaro Yonada Plasma 6.2.4 Testing KVM Guest just to have "copy and paste" handy. First roll forward Manjaro Stable to Manjaro Testing Branch . . .

Straight forward run `sudo pacman -Syyu` on Manjaro KDE as of 11/04/2024 failed. Several commands shown bellow finally brought me to success. Having stable Manjaro release rolled forward to a final state we can just replace "downgrade" by "manjaro-downgrade" to reproduce same approach as in my previous post to Lxer.com . Current version of ML4W Dotfiles appears to 2.9.7.1DEV.

Start as advised in https://github.com/mylinuxforwork/dotfiles/wiki/installation on Arch Plasma 2.9.7 KVM Guest and after reboot be ready to fail login into Hyprland DE. Attempt to downgrade aquamarine and hyprland per https://github.com/mylinuxforwork/dotfiles/wiki/Installation... to fix a bug in Hyprland, e.i. suggestion to perform downgrade sequentially didn't work for me . Only attempt to downgrade both packages at a time was successful.

Same setup as was proposed in original video was successfully tested on Fedora 41 KDE Spin on bare metal . See https://dbaxps.blogspot.com/2024/11/hyprland-with-ml4w-297-d... .

Following https://xerolinux.xyz/posts/build-archiso/ . Issue commands: $ sudo pacman -S archiso ; $ mkdir ~/ArchWork ; $ mkdir ~/ArchOut ; $ sudo mkarchiso -v -w ~/ArchWork -o ~/ArchOut /usr/share/archiso/configs/releng

Switch from from ICH9 to AC97 (sound) via Virt-Manager Guest features resolves the issue in meantime. Sound from youtube's video running in VM starts to go via external speakers. Tested for F41 KDE Spin Guest at ArchLinux Plasma 6.2.3 KVM Virtualiztion Host as well.

Important note: Hyprland has just been released in version in version 0.45.0. The new version will introduce new shadow variables which results on 4 error messages on top of your screen when you're using the Dotfiles in 2.9.6.5 or lower. The new version 2.9.6.6 of the Dotfiles will be compatible with Hyprland 0.45.0 and is already available with yay -S ml4w-hyprland-git.

First DE supposed to be installed is KDE Plasma 6.2.3, installation follows instructions proposed in thread https://github.com/archlinux/archinstall/issues/2764 due to known issue with pipewire-pulse.service in arch ISO version as of 11/01/2024

I was forced to enable 3D accelearation && OpenGL and bring up just once KVM instance of F41 KDE Spin to obtain option Desktops Effects => Windows Management => Cube visible for activation. Six virtual desktops had been already activated. Afterwards Super+"C" started to work. Then I shutdown F41 KDE instance and disabled 3D accelearation && OpenGL.

We start session Fedora 41 KDE Spin RC1.3 via Virt-manage with 3D acceleration && OpenGL activated (VENV tuning ). Now attempt to obtain Desktop Cube effect like it is supposed to be done on bare metal instance

Straight forward install Pycharm-community-2024.2.3 via extracting tar ball either snap will fail showing up following error : $ ~/Downloads/pycharm-community-2024.2.3/bin> ./pycharm.sh

**Start Failed** Internal error java.lang.InternalError: Unable to load native GTK libraries

To avoid this failure libgthread-2_0-0 is supposed to be preinstalled.

Pyenv is a tool for managing multiple Python versions. Once pyenv is installed you can easily switch between one project that uses Python 3.13.0 and a system-wide default Python 3.12.7.

Perform standard install KDE Plasma 6.1.5 on Arch Linux as KVM instance.

Looks like presence on Fedora 41 Server preinstalled KDE Plasma 6.2 Beta allows to setup Cosmic DE as second DE following https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/ryanabx/cosmic-epoch... . The most recent Fedora 41 KDE Spin behaves the same way as F41 Server.

Following command $ sudo dnf5 install @kde-desktop-environment works at least in meantime for both F41 Server ( no GUI installed by default ) and F41 WKS with Gnome 47 installed by default . Syntax above is mentioned due to command $ dnf5 group list doesn't help at the moment .

Why libpamac-aur is causing trouble after upgrade to pacman 7.0 ?
