I am running Dolphin: Version 16.04.3 Using: KDE Frameworks 5.23.0 Qt 5.6.1 (built against 5.6.1) The xcb windowing system I am also running Konqueror: Version 4.14.20 Since the update to 4.14.20, Konqueror has regained its ability to work as a file manager, open directories/files with single click, have icons in its menu bar and its drop down menus. From what I can tell it works as it always did in the pre-plasma days. Unlike Konqueror, Dolphin looks, feels and works like a half baked alpha version software with missing functionality. No icons, have to double click for everything and whatever else may still not work properly. I am guessing that it is not yet ready for human consumption, but future versions will hopefully work properly again. Until then I will continue to use Konqueror, as I have always done under KDE2,3,4. :-) -- Regards, Mick signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part.

I also have the other problem the Arch OP had encountered, ie selecting items now requires a double-click. I added [KDE] SingleClick=true but it has made no difference.

I upgraded yesterday from 5.7.4 to 5.7.5. I hoped the problem I have had been fixed, but no. If I switch desktops too many times, or too often or something, the desktop becomes unusable until I reboot (I haven't tried just restarting xdm). It flickers rapidly, bits of one desktop are shown in the middle of another or on a blank background, and it's hard to see just which is the currently active desktop. This may be a bad interaction with the xorg-driver for my AMD GPU, which has only been on the market for about a year. Though sys-firmware/amdgpu-ucode hasn't changed since June. -- Rgds Peter
