My problem now is waiting for Fedora 40

This might be a stupid question but will Plasma6 be compatible with the Raspberry Pi?

Thank you very much and happy linuxing

fallingcats ,

I’d very much expect it to be. The raspberry is pretty much a normal (if a bit slow) modern computer from an application standpoint.

Pantherina ,

Needs to be compiled for its ARM architecture, thats it. Plasma also highly relies on GPU acceleration, so this also has to work.

const_void ,

What feature are you waiting for in Plasma 6?

I want to see how much Wayland has improved

ExpertisePredicament ,

HDR definitely

fallingcats ,

I thought that too, but then I noticed I don’t have a single steam game with HDR and Firefox doesn’t support it either.

pkill ,

will it be lighter on the CPU?

ozymandias117 ,

Seems unlikely it can get any lighter than the 0.14% CPU load average 5.27.10 is using right now

pkill ,

hmm strange, maybe some applet but when I was using it on my 3rd gen i7 laptop it never went silent and the CPU usage could spike to even 20% when idle

ozymandias117 ,

Maybe something wrong with the GPU in your setup?

I could see kwin using a lot more CPU if the compositing fell back onto software rendering instead of hardware rendering

shadowintheday2 ,

3rd gen i7 is outdated

Even a 8th gen i7 struggles to keep cool and quiet compared to Ryzens from 2019 onwards running the same stack

Gondolaaaa ,

I’d go with some applet as the culprit. I use a Haswell i7 laptop and it’s quiet

Plopp ,

I run Plasma 5 on a 2nd gen i7 laptop and it’s idling just fine and quietly most of the time with no such spikes unless I have several apps running, including a web browser with a plethora of tabs.

Vilian ,

running fedora 40 on my laptop, everything is very good, others than fedora own bugs, plasma is very solid

Pantherina ,

40 is not out, is that rawhide?

Vilian ,

kinda it’s called branched they branch it from rawhide and create an “alpha” and run tested and such before opening the beta
