    [12:08] schestowitz[TR2]

    KaOS, a rolling-release KDE-centric Linux distro betting on the XFS file system, released its latest stable, 2024.07 ISO, powered by Linux kernel 6.9 and packed with updates and enhancements.

    [12:08] schestowitz[TR2]

    The releases highlight is the integration of the latest Plasma 6.1.3, KDE Gear 24.05.2, and Frameworks 6.4.0, all built on Qt 6.7.2. This update brings many improvements, notably the ability to start up a remote desktop directly from the System Settings app, a feature that utilizes KRDC once enabled.

    This past two weeks in KDE: fixing sticky keys and the worst crashes
    [12:11] schestowitz[TR2]
    [12:11] schestowitz[TR2]

    These past two weeks were big for Wayland accessibility support, as Nicolas Fella did a lot of work to improve support for sticky keys to equal the state they were in on X11. This work is not complete, but so far its taken a big bite out of the open issues! The work lands in a mixture of Plasma 6.1.3 and 6.2.0 (link 1, link 2, link 3, link 4, link 5, link 6).

    [12:11] schestowitz[TR2]

    Beyond this, its notable that Plasma developers fixed the five most common Plasma crashes, as well as a bunch of less common ones, which youll see mentioned below. These were caused by a mix of Qt regressions and our own code defects. The new automatic crash reporting system has been a huge boon here, allowing us to see which crashes are actually affecting people most. So pl [12:11] schestowitz[TR2] ease do continue to report them!
