[plasmashell] [Bug 341143] Bring back per-virtual-desktop wallpapers
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=341143 Claverhouse changed: What|Removed |Added Version|5.2.0 |5.22.4 --- Comment #447 from Claverhouse --- Yet the trouble remains; and is: since most of us have neither the skills nor time to develop a retro KDE with sane defaults, keeping the things like Separate Desktop Wallpaper --- and a large amount of KDE puzzling updates whilst well-meant are kinda futile ( like 'Start New Instance' for items on the menubar, or the weird unique rendering of 'Downloads' in Dolphin ) and to take away control non-reversible --- for those wanting KDE and only KDE, how do we find KDE forks that will include what we want --- and offer more control over our desktop ? If I wanted do simply obey Developers' whims, I would have gone for Apple. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
[dolphin] [Bug 398908] MimeTypeFinderJob can use huge amounts of memory reading unnecessary data

So enormous thanks to those who achieved this. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
[plasmashell] [Bug 341143] Bring back per-virtual-desktop wallpapers
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=341143 Claverhouse changed: What|Removed |Added CC||claverho...@tutanota.de Platform|Kubuntu Packages|PCLinuxOS --- Comment #427 from Claverhouse --- If there's anything that will drive me from KDE--- which I have used exclusively since starting on Linux --- ( although there are quite a few innovative awfulnesses mostly related to the foul minimalist modernism ), it's not having the separate wallpapers for separate desktops that was so needed and so useful. I shall never dream of having a use for Activities; Virtual Desktops are all I need, and the moronic decision to remove this simple ability has been confounded by the crude inability to restore this function for many years by the detestable puritans. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
[dolphin] [Bug 398908] Dolphin uses up huge amounts of memory
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=398908 Claverhouse changed: What|Removed |Added CC||claverho...@tutanota.de --- Comment #75 from Claverhouse --- I'll just quote from a post I made elsewhere a week or so ago. Though it's been going on for months. The freeze when saving --- from every browser --- is what concerns me most, though having to kill dolphin instances every few hours is tedious in the extreme. > Dolphin's getting worse recently. Slow as hell, memory gobbling [*], and can suddenly disappear. The rest of the applications on my KDE PCLinuxOS are fast and stable. Plus [ Dolphin ] takes ages to set up to be useful: like a side tree view panel: one needs the 'Folders' view, not the Places, or Information; Show Menu Bar and Split View --- which are all things hidden from a new user. For finding things it is so useless I have to fire up Double Commander or Krusader. . , Worst of all, saving an image from any browser freezes, then takes half a minute each. I mostly switched to other contrivances like an image downloader or DownLoadThemAll!, even at the last saving from Page Info... . I always said Konqueror was an indifferent browser, but a great file-manager. Never understood why they switched from that. < . [*] Some dolphins -- seems to depend on the different 'virtual desktop' I rather imagine --- go up to 500MB after an hour. . Old AMD Phenom computer, B50 CPU, 16 GB RAM KDE 5.80.0 Plasma 5.21.3 --- although this has persisted through different KDE/Plasma versions. . Nota Bene: Sadly Firefox uses the GTK file chooser [ I am using Pale Moon mostly = old Firefox ] and whilst I like/need this layout, I strongly depreciate having any Gnome elements on my computer. Not as bad as Brave though, that installs dozens of other unkillable little Gnome GVfs CPU gobblers... -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
