I'd like to make concerted effort to fix the outstanding issues with
KDE - there's quite a few still open in qubes-issues.

The major bug is the absence of NetworkManager icon - I don't notice
the absence.

Last year I partially researched this issue using different widget libraries available in python. I was able to consistently reproduce either the blank icon or a properly-displayed icon... I will try to dig this up later this week.

I'm told that the "Settings" icon in qui-domains menu is oversized.

I don't see any icons at all in qui-domains; just text.


Otherwise seems fine to me, but I don't think I'm representative user.
Custom mens, Activities, Kwin stuff works fine.

Can any other KDE users chip in with problems that they still see?

1. Qubes widgets (but not others, incl. domU widgets) sometimes require multiple clicks just to activate them. I think this happens more under high system load but not yet sure. Its frequent enough to feel like a constant irritant.

2. The pointer input driver that is now used in dom0 isn't optimal. Scrolling is much slower, and this slowness is felt more in KDE Application Launcher, for example, than the Xfce launcher. (But this isn't an issue when using sys-usb for pointer input.) A thread here described a workaround...

This matters especially for any PS/2 pointers (like trackpads) which are driven by dom0.

3. IIRC screen standby mode doesn't work with lightdm, regardless of the DE used. Only KDE + sddm combo gets screen standby working.
