Fedora 40 KDE ( server-netinst-20240322.n.0) vs KDE Plasma 6.0.2 port to Manjaro KDE 23.1
Porting KDE Plasma 6.0.2 to Manjaro 23.1 was performed by commands
$ sudo pacman-mirrors --api --set-branch testing ;
$ sudo pacman -Scc ;
$ sudo pacman-mirrors --fasttrack 5 ;
$ sudo pacman -Syyu .
I may confirm the issue mentioned in https://forum.manjaro.org/t/i-tested-kde-6-oh-my-oh-my-you-w... . I've also tested with no problems opening *.webp files via Dolphin on the most recent fedora 40 KDE nightly build. See snapshot . . .
KDE Plasma 6.0.1 arrived on openSUSE Tumbleweed
Deployment KVM Guest of openSUSE Tumbleweed was performed via the most recent ISO image dated 03/13/2024. Default disk layout was also updated with LVM Group. Following below are just several reports obtained by different GUI Tools
KDE Plasma 6.0.1 on Fedora 40 WKS (Development branch)
KDE Plasma 6.0.1 seems to work with no obvious issues on Fedora 40 WKS ( nightly build as of 03/06/24 ) . Looks like requirements for beta staging for Fedora 40 and openSUSE 15.6 are a bit different. Anaconda Blivet GUI on Fedora 40 WKS allows to create any desired disk layout even during deployment WorkStation. Spice console works just fine for L1 and L2 KVM Guests .
Network Manager CLI && KVM Guests support on openSUSE Tumbleweed (Leap)
This post gives a detailed description of procedure creating network bridge via nmcli commands and virsh CLI. Same procedure was also tested with no issues on openSUSE Leap 15.5. Both tests have been performed in VENV and allow to avoid setup of Cockpit Web Console
Fedora Workstation's Anaconda Web UI Installer Delayed To Fedora 41
A showstopping issue has come to light that has now led to this feature being diverted to Fedora 41 instead. The matter was raised over an important difference in behavior during the storage/disk setup between the existing installer and the new web UI solution.
What is an OSB ISO? What’s the difference of an OSB and a “normal ISO image
Actually, what happens right now during deploying KVM Guest via Fedora-Workstation-Live-osb-40-20240301.n.0.x86_64.iso . At the time of writing I clearly saw Anconda Web UI behavior during installation via ISO image pointed above. Awareness of article https://www.phoronix.com/news/Fedora-Web-Installer-F41-Delay explains the reason why Anaconda Web UI was postponed until Fedora 41 and provide some light on why OSB image behaves the way described here in details .
Setup Python 3.12.2 on KDE Neon as of 02/29 vs Fedora 40 KDE Development branch
KDE Neon KVM guest was deployed via neon-user-20240229-0716.iso. Python 3.12.2 installation has been performed per https://www.dedicatedcore.com/blog/install-pyenv-ubuntu/ , in particular case no upgrade of KDE Plasma up to 6.0 was required
Setup Python 3.12.2 on SparkyLinux2024.2 (kernel 6.7.6) via pyenv
This post is an immediate follow up on previous one http://lxer.com/module/newswire/view/337189/index.html to perform install Python 3.12.2 for particular user via pyenv in the same way as it was done in the link above. Then create new project in PyCharm with path to interpreter /home/boris/.pyenv/versions/3.12.2/bin/python3 .
Anaconda Web UI on Fedora 40WKS KVM Guest deployed via Fedora-WKS-Live-x86_64-40-20240217.n.0.iso
Anaconda Web UI installer was tested step by step with encrypted root BTRFS volume and the most recent installer's interface. KDE Plasma 6 RC2 was installed as second DE and smooth switching between DEs was verified
Setup Turtle Graphics on openSUSE Tumbleweed via Python3.13-dev
First install pyenv on Tumbleweed. You may follow for instance http://lxer.com/module/newswire/view/337068/index.html. Then install Python3.13-dev (or Python3.13.0a2(3)) via pyenv . It won't affect system-wide Python 3.11.(X) . . . . Same way procedure would work on SparkyLinux2024.2 or Manjaro 23.1 and Manjaro Testing as well .
Attempt to upgrade Manjaro 23.1 via Manjaro Testing branch
In order to access a branch, you need to change your pacman-mirrors configuration. You are supposed substitute the value colored in blue (for illustrative purposes only) to one of the following: stable, testing or unstable. Manjaro Testing is runing kernel 6.7.4, System-wide Python appears to be 3.12.1, libvirt version 10.0 . The libvirt version has been displayed via virsh console.
Install PyCharm 2023.3 on Fedora Rawhide via snap
This option of Pycharm 2023.3 setup works for me with no issues so far. I am not quite sure that under any circumstances I am supposed to work via flatpak/flathub .
Install Python 3.12 && Pycharm 2023.3 along with system-wide 3.11 on Manjaro KDE 23.1
Pyenv is a tool for managing multiple Python versions. Once pyenv is installed you can easily switch between one project that uses Python 3.12 and a system-wide default Python 3.11. Same approach works fine on openSUSE Tumbleweed, SparkyLinux 7.2, SparkyLinux 2024.1
Install Python 3.12 && Pycharm 2023.3 along with system wide 3.11 on SparkyLinux 7.2 (kernel 6.7.3)
Pyenv is a tool for managing multiple Python versions. Once pyenv is installed you can easily switch between one project that uses Python 3.12 and a system-wide default Python 3.11, without any additional doubt. Same schema would work on SparkyLinux 2024.1
Install Python 3.11 && PyCharm on openSUSE Tumbleweed (kernel 6.7.2)
Following post is a compilation from several sources, which looked unexpectedly complicated due to I was unable to find out the way of installation like on the known Linux flavors (Fedora,Debian,Ubuntu). Actually "pyenv install 3.1X" appears to be the build via original python's tar ball. Before you can use a specific Python version, you need to install and configure pyenv.
Attempt to run Wayland sessions on SparkyLinux7.2, SparkyLinux1024.1 under kernel 6.7.2
On both Sparky releases (stable 7.2 and Seven-Sisters) kernel 6.7.2 may be installed via Synaptic Manager. Command "$ sudo apt install kde-standard" allows to switch from X11 to Wayland via relogin to Sparky instance. Just one more option comes up on SDDM login screen. Libvirt version 10.0 may be tested on SparkyLinux1024.1
Attempt to run kernel 6.7.0 on Manjaro KDE 23.1.2 (bare metal)
Originally setup Cockpit Web Console and deploying KVM Guest were done under the most recent kernel 6.7.0 installed via Manjaro Settings Manager in VENV. Afterwards same schema was reproduced on bare metal with obvious changes related with manual creating EFI partion fat32 512 MB been mounted on folder /boot/efi and "btrfs" been used for "/" root partition
Deployment Manjaro KDE 23.1.2 and Debian 12.4 as KVM Guests on Fedora Rawhide KDE Plasma 6.0 RC1
Deployments below have been performed to make sure that Calamares Installer has no any longer issues with KDE Plasma 6.0 RC1 on top of Fedora Rawhide Server. Debian Network Installer was verified with the same purpose
Testing KDE Plasma 6.0 Beta 2 on Fedora Rawhide Server
VM installed as KVM Guest via Fedora-Server-netinst-x86_64-Rawhide-20240103.n.0.iso ( 16 GB , 8 vcpu ) with KDE Plasma Workspaces 5.91.0 . Fedora Rawhide Server is running 6.7.0-rc8 kernel. Looks like Fedora Server Rawhide is ready for KDE Plasma 6.0 .
