From their repo:
Plasma Login
Plasma Login provides a display manager for KDE Plasma, forked from SDDM and with an new frontend providing a greeter, wallpaper plugin integration and System Settings module (KCM).
What we want
- Great out-of-box experience in multi-monitor and high DPI and HDR
- Keyboard layout switching
- Virtual keyboards
- Easy Chinese/Japanese/Korean/Vietnamese (CJK) input
- Screen readers for blind people (which then means volume control)
- Remote (VNC/RDP) support from startup
- Deeper Plasma integration including:
- Display and keyboard brightness control
- Full power management
- Pairing trusted bluetooth devices
- Login to known Wi-Fi for remote LDAP
What kind of argument is that?
It’s already in AUR, you can install it right now if you want.
Right, but since it isn’t based on Fedora, which this post is about, what Fedora is doing has no bearing on what CachyOS uses as its defaults.
Except they responded to a post talking about an Arch-based distro, so Fedora isn’t relevant here.
“Trickles down” sure implies Fedora here, especially when Bazzite is mentioned.
Sorry for the confusion. When I said trickle down I meant from upstream KDE devs, not Fedora. I should have worded it better.
trickles down from the base kde packages. this is simple.
it appears they may not understand rolling release, or proper grammar to describe the situation, but theres an actual answer to their question, which is anything but “not at all”.
Fair enough!
