I have a few things in my Plasma desktop that is not translated. So it seems to be the same as you encounter.
I’ve just learned to live with it, since it’s likely just untranslated strings somewhere.
I know it’s active, but most of the stuff being added is not something I use. “Plain old” is a figure of speech for something that is pretty “vanilla”.
I doubt they’re outright rejecting any idea of progress. They’re likely just not convinced by what the fancy options offer
Exactly. I don’t mind progress. But terminal emulators that does things you become dependant on, is not great in my opinion. Because what happens the day you only have a TTY to get things done? If you rely on all the fancy stuff, you would feel lost.
So yeah, I am not convinced that I need my terminal emulator to be fancy. But some people clearly are, looking at the rest of the comments on the post.
I can’t see the benefit of fancy terminal emulators. I use plain old Konsole (mostly on Plasma) and as long as it has good history search and multiple tabs, I’m good.
I think it depends on your usecase a lot. Most of the feedback is not related to games, so I don’t think most of them experience your issue, because you alt-tab out of a loading game. Do you have any major issues that are not related to playing games?
I can play games fine on Wayland, but I don’t alt-tab out, so I haven’t encountered what you have.
As far as I understand it, TTFs are more basic, while OTF can have more features and glyphs.
Instead of just linking to the information, which may be removed in the future, you could have also pasted a snippet of a relevant section. Like:
If --force is specified twice, the operation is immediately executed without terminating any processes or unmounting any file systems. This may result in data loss. Note that when --force is specified twice the halt operation is executed by systemctl itself, and the system manager is not contacted. This means the command should succeed even when the system manager has crashed.
Already in the AUR as otf-suse and ttf-suse. :)
That’s awesome!
Awesome. So different library versions does not conflict here, good to know. :)

would show you which process is actually using the cpu core.
The Arch packages does and he is using an Arch based distro (endeavorOS), so it would be the same.
If Gnome has issues but Plasma and Mate work fine, then it’s likely not firmware related, but rather a process in Gnome that’s using a core all the time. So find out what that process is, if it’s a common thing on Gnome and if it will finish if given enough time.
There is no maliit for qt6 yet. It’s still a work in progress according to the github repo issues.
It could be that your distro ships Plasma 6, but the keyboard is still qt5 based, so they don’t talk well to eachother?
Maybe the power settings are not set up correctly in Tablet mode (I don’t know if there are seperate settings for normal and tablet mode).
Or as another responded, the button might count as a keyboard and thus is disabled in tablet mode. What happens if you press the power button when the device is awake and in tablet mode?
I disagree with it being underpowered for regular office use and media consumption. If you can get your hands on a 16 GB RAM one, it should be able to handle just about anything other than gaming.
I will say that a second-hand ThinkPad is a great option. They can be real cheap, but you can also get a pretty decent new one for your budget.
You can likely find great T480-T495 that fits your needs really well.
Omitting grub and using systemd-boot might also take a few seconds off.
Why not just log in as the user in TTY and then start it?
I’n not sure I understand the use-case of why it needs a Plasma session to start a script that needs to keep running afterwards. If the script itself does not need a plasma session, then you can just start it as a user service with systemd.
