If it is interesting for you to see this working, there is an option to
connect by TeamViewer or Remote-Desktop.
I am in Bangkok, -appointment required- to make sure that the internet is
connected. (connected to a not very fast Hotspot via USB-dongle in the
apartment house. It drops sometimes)
Just let me know.

I cannot change the fact that the gpu is crap. Sorry. If we get graphics reset
errors it means the driver has an issue and not that our code has issues.
I intensively tested KWin on the raspberry pi. I even tested with customized
setups not running the de, but just KWin. It's just not up to the task. The gpu
hard froze when switching a window to fullscreen.
I would love to be able to run Plasma on it, but it's just not possible.

Please read the whole report again. I wrote that this system is working 24/7, I reported some flaws I encountered during setup. The report should be helpful for developers and possibly for people who want to switch from "Windoofs" to Linux. Don't turn them off. I enjoy using KDE, having just one UI, so that every user in my network does not need to become familiar with different desktops. I can access this pi from the local network as well as via internet. Kontact has an archive mail-folder on a partition of a USB-Drive, which can be mounted/accessed by sshfs on every further machine with KDE The keys to get KDE running on Raspberry (reduce X11-spamming and usage of Zram) have been explained in my report.

Especially changing a wireless network or other clicks in the panel are blocking the usage for minutes. Please let me know whether you need more details. I can do some tests if that would help. As emphasized before, I don't need the effects. It is just about how other people will react, when coming from Windows and trying to setting up Linux with such effects.
