[plasmashell] [Bug 341143] Wallpaper on every desktop is gone.
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=341143 --- Comment #315 from Gerry Makaro aka Fraser_Bell --- (In reply to Nate Graham from comment #314) > You don't close an open bug just because it hasn't gotten implemented yet > and people are frustrated by this.

Okay, now this is a very good explanation of what is going on. So, once this gets worked out, the feature will be back in some future version of the desktop. Explanations like this and a "Where we're at ..." post on occasion would help mitigate some of the frustration, I think.

However, this is apparently not in KDE's Plasma, this is happening to me in Xfce. It seems kOrganizer's problem is when it is in another Desktop, and possibly when the full KDE desktop has not been installed. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
[korganizer] [Bug 373988] KOrganiser time zone locked to UTC and not possible to change.

In the Day view, in the Schedule window, on the left are the times. At the top of that column, does it show your time zone? Or, does it show it as UTC? If UTC (as it does in my case), then although it seems to put the items at the "correct time", it is actually saying that schedule is UTC time. ... and, in that case, the UTC time it is running under is actually incorrect by the same shift as your time zone. It is interpreting Local time as UTC time. This is not good, and can cause multiple problems. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
