What to do with RHEL %if in KDE specs
by Troy Dawson
Hi All,
As many of you know, I'm working on a "KDE-rawhide" module for EPEL8.
This module would build the whole KDE/Plasma/kf5/qt5 stack as a module
for EPEL8, using what is in Fedora rawhide.
As a result, I'm going to put some %if statements in some of the
Fedora master spec files.
Most of these are because of missing -devel packages from RHEL8, as
well as some desktop related packages not being on all arches.
This will affect between 30 and 60 packages.
I will try to keep these as unobtrusive as I can, but also detailed in
the git commit.
One question I have. Do ya'll think I should change the release version?
I was thinking not, since I don't plan on rebuilding these on rawhide.
But then it looks strange if I don't have these changes in the
changelog.
I keep going back and forth on the release number change.

Compose key no longer works
by Ben Cotton
After upgrading (I think. The timing is about right, but I'm not fully
sure) to plasma-desktop-5.17.4-2.fc31.x86_64, my compose key no
longer...composes. I have tried changing which key is assigned, but it
does not matter. When set to Right Ctrl, typing <Right Ctrl>+-+-+- in
a terminal or web browser decreases the zoom level instead of typing
an em dash. When set to other keys (e.g. Pause or Right Ctrl), nothing
is typed.
I don't see any bugs in RHBZ or upstream, but it's new behavior on
both of my machines. Any ideas where to start digging into this?

SSD Access block UI
by Klaus Kolle
Hi
over the past few months I've seen a strange behaviour on my Fedora 30 KDE.
I see processes accessing the disk for very long periods totally
blocking the user interface. I've seen SpiderOakONE, dnf and rpm on the
process list.
Is this a SSD problem? Is the disk worn out? Or is it a deliberate
behaviour in the kernel drivers that has been introduced in the last
quarter of 2019?
I hope someone can point me where to search for more evidence for what i
the root cause of the annoying problem, that renders my laptop almost
useless for periods.

No sleeping any more
by Klaus Kolle
Hello list
For the past two or three days my Lenovo Yoga 920 laptop wont sleep when
the lid is closed.
I've been starring in the /var/log/messages file, but cannot figure out,
what causes the immediate awakening og the OS.
I've located these lines in the messages, but it does not give any
meaning to me, what wakes up or prevents the sleeping.
The sleeping starts at 14:35:58.
Any idea what is wrong?

Should this be considered a bug?
by Ed Greshko
Example
In "system settings" under "Regional Settings--->Formats" if you set the region to
Australia - Australian English (en_AU) and then check the "Detailed Settings" box
and set Time to Australia (wbp_AU), which is a locale that doesn't exist on the system,
you will get LC_TIME=C.UTF-8 which I think is fine.
However, the other entries will be set to the system default.
I think all the other entries should still be set to en_AU.UTF-8.

Issues with current KDE spin on Ideapad 100s
by bogdal.grzegorz＠tutanota.com
Hi,
I wanted to report some issues with the current KDE spin. While it's great that it includes 32bit EFI and it can be installed normally on Intel Bay Trail systems, it:
- Doesn't provide hardware video acceleration, I think. It's impossible to play videos on VLC/Dragon/Totem/Firefox because they change frames like once a minute. They became somewhat usable with one of the vdpau intel packages, but I can't recall which one
- The performance is really bad. Simple commands in Konsole, like "ls", can lag noticeably. Cursor freezes often. Opening applications lags the whole system. I have no idea what's the reason - CPU usage in htop was far below 100% and there was free RAM available. I've tried to mess with the swappiness and cache pressure, but it didnt't solve the issue.
Kubuntu 19.10 works out of the box with none of those issues.
I can't really provide lot of input because I've changed the system and the laptop isn't mine - but I wanted to report those problems.
Thanks for all the hard work,
brzegorz
