AptiviKDE Plasma 6.4 improves drag-and-drop for filesAs we are getting closer to the soft freeze for the next version of KDE Plasma, which is v6.4, more features are being added to the desktop environment which is slated to be released <a href="https://community.kde.org/Schedules/Plasma_6#Future_releases" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">this June</a>. This release is going to be the most exciting version, hence the fact that there was an 18-year-old feature request (<a href="https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=154804" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">December 29th, 2007</a>) posted on the bug tracker since the KDE 3 days.Starting from this version of KDE Plasma, you can now configure the desktop environment via the Settings application so that you can now drag and drop files to a different folder on the same disk without asking every time. This saves time and effort, and this feature is demonstrated <a href="https://blogs.kde.org/2025/05/03/this-week-in-plasma-move-by-default-when-dragging-and-dropping/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">here</a>.To enable this setting, open the KDE settings, navigate to Workspace > General Behavior, scroll to Drag and Drop, and press on Move if on the same device.Besides this one, there are various highlights that you can see in the blog article linked above, which coincides with how this version makes your user experience better, such as the following:<ul><li>KWin’s full-screen zoom feature with a three-finger pinch gesture,</li><li>GPU usage monitoring in the System Monitor for AMD and Intel GPUs, and</li><li>Raw sensor data information in the Info Center.</li></ul>For gamers, various improvements to the game controller joystick support have been added to this version of KDE Plasma.Photo by <a href="https://unsplash.com/@petekasprzyk?utm_content=creditCopyText&utm_medium=referral&utm_source=unsplash" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Peter Kasprzyk</a> on <a href="https://unsplash.com/photos/woman-in-white-and-red-striped-shirt-and-blue-denim-jeans-sitting-on-concrete-bench-using-ElWjGZ5NN-Q?utm_content=creditCopyText&utm_medium=referral&utm_source=unsplash" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Unsplash</a><a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://officialaptivi.wordpress.com/tag/kde/" target="_blank">#KDE</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://officialaptivi.wordpress.com/tag/kde-6/" target="_blank">#KDE6</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://officialaptivi.wordpress.com/tag/kde-plasma/" target="_blank">#KDEPlasma</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://officialaptivi.wordpress.com/tag/kde-plasma-6/" target="_blank">#KDEPlasma6</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://officialaptivi.wordpress.com/tag/linux/" target="_blank">#Linux</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://officialaptivi.wordpress.com/tag/news/" target="_blank">#news</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://officialaptivi.wordpress.com/tag/tech/" target="_blank">#Tech</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://officialaptivi.wordpress.com/tag/technology/" target="_blank">#Technology</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://officialaptivi.wordpress.com/tag/update/" target="_blank">#update</a>

jloc0I pushed changes to sddm, if you choose to overwrite the conf, it will now default to use kwin_wayland and on tty7. Been working well for me, let me know of any issues yall be havin. <a href="https://mastodon.sdf.org/tags/kde6" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#kde6</a> <a href="https://mastodon.sdf.org/tags/slackware" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#slackware</a>

jloc0I uploaded that <a href="https://mastodon.sdf.org/tags/kde6" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#kde6</a> sddm rebuild for x86-64, I’d not ever built it up for arm64 yet but I’ll get to it later. Also, updated <a href="https://mastodon.sdf.org/tags/libreoffice" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#libreoffice</a> for arm64 to 25.2.3.1 which I’ve been sitting on for days as well. <a href="https://slackware.lngn.net/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://slackware.lngn.net/</a>

Larvitz :fedora: :redhat:The Dolphin file manager in KDE Plasma Desktop now got a cute dolphin on the icon since the most recent update. aww, really like that nice touch 🙂 <a href="https://burningboard.net/tags/kde" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#kde</a> <a href="https://burningboard.net/tags/dolphin" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#dolphin</a> <a href="https://burningboard.net/tags/plasma" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#plasma</a> <a href="https://burningboard.net/tags/kde6" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#kde6</a> <a href="https://burningboard.net/tags/linux" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#linux</a>

jloc0Oh and yes I’d done the arm64 <a href="https://mastodon.sdf.org/tags/slackwareaarch64" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#slackwareaarch64</a> packages as well around the same time. Hopefully this weekend, I can finalize the changes for the all-in-one repo on arm64. <a href="https://mastodon.sdf.org/tags/kde6" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#kde6</a> <a href="https://mastodon.sdf.org/tags/lxqt" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#lxqt</a>

jloc0Ok, I still haven’t grasped the proper formatting for ChangeLog.txt being parsed through the gen_repo_files but I’m getting somewhere with it. <a href="https://mastodon.sdf.org/tags/kde6" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#kde6</a> gear 25.04.0 is up, there’s 3 new deps (like unstable had), and <a href="https://mastodon.sdf.org/tags/lxqt" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#lxqt</a> 2.2.0 is up as well on Intel. <a href="https://slackware.lngn.net/#news" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://slackware.lngn.net/#news</a>

jloc0I had been spending so much time worrying about <a href="https://mastodon.sdf.org/tags/kde6" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#kde6</a> on x86-64 I hadn’t realized I’d built the entire arm64 over but left the /etc/kde intact. 🫠 Luckily, I was doing installs and tests and found my mistake before I uploaded the repo. Anyone on <a href="https://mastodon.sdf.org/tags/slackwareaarch64" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#slackwareaarch64</a> waiting for the <a href="https://mastodon.sdf.org/tags/kde6" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#kde6</a> rebuild… it’s ready and all good, and I’ll be pushing it live tomorrow ahead of the next gear 25.04.0 release which will come this weekend for both platforms. Holding off a bit on restructured arm64 repo as well.

jloc0I pushed a small update for <a href="https://mastodon.sdf.org/tags/kde6" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#kde6</a> <a href="https://mastodon.sdf.org/tags/slackware" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#slackware</a> for mpvqt-1.1.1 and dep rebuilds. Gloriously jacked up the ChangeLog again as well (I literally cannot find the doc that explains the formatting anymore) I’ll get it someday. <a href="https://slackware.lngn.net/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://slackware.lngn.net/</a> I still need to fix the site info, but I’m out of time till the weekend.

Now available within my <a href="https://mastodon.sdf.org/tags/kde6" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#kde6</a> repos for <a href="https://mastodon.sdf.org/tags/slackware" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#slackware</a> & <a href="https://mastodon.sdf.org/tags/slackwareaarch64" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#slackwareaarch64</a> | <a href="https://slackware.lngn.net/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://slackware.lngn.net/</a>

jloc0I pushed icu4c rebuilds to <a href="https://mastodon.sdf.org/tags/kde6" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#kde6</a> <a href="https://mastodon.sdf.org/tags/slackware" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#slackware</a> repo today. Latest unstable is building, look ahead for that tomorrow. <a href="https://slackware.lngn.net/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://slackware.lngn.net/</a>

jloc0Icu4c appears to have been updated in <a href="https://mastodon.sdf.org/tags/slackware" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#slackware</a> today while I’ve been working. I’ll get rebuilds out in some hours for the effected <a href="https://mastodon.sdf.org/tags/kde6" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#kde6</a> packages. Did KDE ever drop the next gear beta? That was supposed to be today as well. Ah well, we’ll get it all soon enough.

Taffer 🇨🇦 :godot:If you're in KDE and can't tell where the edges of your <a href="https://mas.to/@obsidian" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@obsidian</a> windows are (for example if you use Solarized theme in Obsidian and the terminal window behind it), turn on "Native frame" for the "Window frame style" option under Advanced in the Appearance settings.<a href="https://mastodon.gamedev.place/tags/kde6" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#kde6</a> <a href="https://mastodon.gamedev.place/tags/obsidian" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#obsidian</a>

jloc0I’ve pushed the gear unstable 25.03.80 updates to <a href="https://mastodon.sdf.org/tags/kde6" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#kde6</a>-unstable for arm64 only as of now. There’s new deps but everything seems good to go. Once Intel finishes I’ll put it up but it’ll be another day most likely. <a href="https://mastodon.sdf.org/tags/slackware" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#slackware</a> <a href="https://slackware.lngn.net/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://slackware.lngn.net/</a>
