Did that again, just to be sure. > Then I think I just did: > apt install -t experimental plasma-desktop The problem I had was due to my search/upgrade command. When I used the following command: ``aptitude safe-upgrade '~i~V5.27' -t experimental`` that worked a LOT better! No more problems and the upgrade went fine :) In hindsight, this output should've been a clue ... : 52 packages upgraded, 188 newly installed, 79 to remove and 150 not upgraded. > and I upgraded some applications as well: > > apt install -t experimental install dolphin kate konsole ark okular ... that I missed to upgrade some things, which was fixed with: ``aptitude safe-upgrade '~i~V23.08' '~i~V24.05' -t experimental`` And AFAIK, or at least on my systems, aptitude doesn't automatically install *new* recommends, which was fixed with: ``aptitude install clinfo+M kde-style-oxygen-qt6+M kgamma+M power-profiles-daemon python3-psutil+M wayland-utils`` (I didn't install all the new recommends) I did closely compare the output of my first 'aptitude' command to see what got removed and what came (likely) in its place. The usual 'suspect' would be same name, but now ending with '6' instead of '5'. But the following list remained: khotkeys libgps30t64 -> qml6-module-qtpositioning ? libksgrd9 libkwineffects14 -> libkwin6 ? libkwinglutils14 -> libkwin6 ? libpowerdevilui5 libprocessui9 libqt5multimedia5-plugins -> qml6-module-qtmultimedia ? libqt5multimediagsttools5 -> qml6-module-qtmultimedia ? libqt5multimediawidgets5 -> qml6-module-qtmultimedia ? libqt5quickshapes5 plasma-workspace-wayland qml-module-org-kde-kcm qml-module-org-kde-kcmutils qml-module-org-kde-kio -> libkf6kiofilewidgets6 ? qml-module-org-kde-runnermodel qml-module-org-kde-solid qml-module-qtquick-shapes -> qml6-module-qtquick-effects ? It's very well possible that these are all fine, but figured I mention it so that the packagers could see if something could be missing. But with a quick test, everything seems to work fine ... > By the way, what tablet do you use? The X1 is a fine tablet, but stability > on Linux is a bit flaky still. ... as mentioned before, I have a Pine64 PineTab2 and there is 1 issue. In its DeviceTree file, there's this setting: ``rotation = <90>`` which means that the panel needs to be rotated by 90 degrees to get the view/display as you'd want. While Plasma does that, it appears that SDDM does not (I also upgraded that to the version in Experimental). https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=494761 is the upstream bug for it, but I'm going to reassign it to sddm as the users in #pinetab apparently didn't describe the problem properly. Now that I've upgraded too, I can see the problem myself. Cheers and thanks for the hint which led me to the right commands! Diederik
