Release 43.20260302 Hello everyone! This is a pretty major release so I just wanted to give it some extra attention with a post here. As of this update we are now shipping KDE 6.6 , minus the new login manager. That will come with the next major Fedora release. Mesa 26.0.1 is now present in all ima…

Thanks for making KDE images more KDE… and less GNOME :slightly_smiling_face:

[image] kylegospo: KDE users will find this to be the first stable release that returns Konsole. Ptyxis will remain on our KDE images for a short time to make it easier for users to transition any terminal configs they’ve made. This change is being done because Konsole will very soon have conta…

We try to use KDE equivalent applications where we can as long as the KDE application is as easy to use as the GNOME or non KDE variant and supports the same things (this also goes the other way if we had to use a KDE application in GNOME). Primary goal is ease of use over being a GNOME/KDE flavore…

Last night, the 43.20260302 update was the latest stable version. This morning, there was 43.20260303. A cursory look at the change logs seems to show a lot of the same stuff listed as from the 02 update. Was there a problem with 02? EDIT1: The changelog on the bazzite.gg page also has the foll…

[image] dallebrinaar: Also, I see “Replace Distroshelf with Kontainer on new KDE installs” in the changelog. As an existing KDE Distroshelf user, is there something I’m supposed to do to transition over to Kontainer? You can just try it if you want or don’t, there is nothing really you have t…

I’m not wedded to Distroshelf. I’ve only got on Debian distro that I’m using to run Signal and it just sits there on it’s own. If Distroshelf and Kontainer can use each other’s “containers” without trouble, I guess I’ll give it a try. If I have to uninstall the Distroshelf one and re-install it i…

This is just a flatpak change so nothing changes for existing users. All things equal we’ll use apps that match your chosen desktop, we only deviate from that when the alternative is objectively better. Kontainer and Distroshelf are great partners, that’s why both ship here.

[image] fenglengshun: How will the plasma-login-manager transition is planned? I think that one still lacks a kcm module like sddm did, so no System Settings menu yet to set auto-login, change wallpaper, and sync settings between main desktop and the login manager. Fedora is driving this, we’…

[image] dallebrinaar: If Distroshelf and Kontainer can use each other’s “containers” without trouble They are both frontends to Distrobox. Everything in one shows up in the other. Distroshelf is a GTK4 application and Kontainer is a Kirigami(KDE) application. They both do more or less the …
