Hi!

I posted this on reddit and then saw that kde has a lemmy presence, so I am posting it here also, since I vastly prefer lemmy over reddit.:

Sorry if this isn't the right place, but I have no idea where else to ask, I tried asking at discuss.kde.org but got no answers.

I am using Arch with KDE Plasma and an Nvidia GPU, when I play Steam games almost all of them work flawlessly but...

When I try to play older games (like Shadowrun Hong Kong or the rereleases of Sims 1 and 2, or Civ 4 or 5), the graphics are all scrambled like this:

Scrambled

The funny thing is, this is a photo of my screen, if I use Steam to take a screenshot it shows up normally in the screenshot folder...

Screenshot

As it only happens on old games I am thinking those do something different than newer games, it doesn't matter what proton version I use and it only seems to happen under plasma.

Any help would be appreciated!

The final report of our fundraiser is out. Check out all that was done thanks to your contributions. 💙

Stay tuned for more soon!

Searched for a few weeks and could not find any solid solution. Found a KDE thread that said it was a issue with flatpak but I don't even have flatpak installed. Others say it's Wayland, Do non KDE users on wayland get this too?

I know it's for security but it's too damned annoying to be worth it! Should I setup a tiling WM and be done with it? It really is that bad.

All I want to do is play Skyrim without seeing this every 15 minutes!

@education

Running Fedora KDE, I've got two monitors side by side. If I move the mouse slowly from one to the other, it seems to catch on the edge between. It makes interacting with things near the edges of the monitor a pain in the ass, if I overshoot with a large gesture to move the mouse to that region and then some unseen force prevents me from precisely moving the mouse back.

I can't find anything in the settings menu that sounds like it would turn this off. How do I turn this off? It needs to be turned off. I intensely hate it.

Full house tonight at the #Kdenlive Café!

Thanks to all who joined, see you next time.

A next version of @[email protected] Plasma is just around the corner and it will come loaded with new features for drawing tablets and improved #wayland support. Shout-out to @redstrate for making it happen as part of their work on the We Care About Your Input - #KDE Goals project.

There is even a website with the current status and planned goodies.

The next major release of Kdenlive brings a 300% performance boost for generating audio thumbnails, along with higher-resolution waveforms for greater precision and a refactored sampling method that accurately renders the audio signal. This remarkable work was done by @etiandre and was made possible thanks to your generous contributions to our fundraiser campaign.

Check out all the details at:

Currently coping from being busy doing everything and also not anything :(

But I am drawing them, since its taking so long, here's a compressed sketch so far, thoughts?

Are you a #filmmaker using #kdenlive? Let us know about your project!

Regardless of whether you are working on making shorts with your mates, features or corporate ads, online or TV shows or music videos, we want to see and promote them all!

We are building a showreel made up of clips from projects edited with Kdenlive. We aim to encourage more artists to move beyond expensive, closed systems to a free way of making movies.

Help us help the next generation of filmmakers! #videoediting @kde

Both Mastodon & Bluesky suggest that you add alt text to images to improve accessibility for the visually impaired
The text is not retained

How can I add alt text to my image files, ideally when I import the files ? Tags I make with Dolphin or Digikam aren't visible except where they're made

Thought I'd ask here before I start submitting feature requests
