Looks nice.
But upon starting it up I lost all windows decorations (KDE), had to restart my session and lost the things I was working on in my terminals.
How can launching an app cripples the whole desktop ? (not that this have anything to do with the app to me, it's a plasma thing)
First thing I look for was support for vim keybinding, could neovim be used as the backend editor ?
- jhasse 7y agoSound to me that your DE sucks if an app can bring it down.
- SbEpUBz2 7y agoKDE disables compositing when SDL apps are opened to improve performance. It should return once the app is closed. You can disable this behavior in System Settings > Display and Monitor > Compositor and unchecking Allow applications to block compositing.
- johnchristopher 7y agoWow, thank you ! It's not the first time something like that happened to me but I would never have had the patience to investigate ! Can confirm unchecking that setting solved that problem.
- the_pwner224 6y agoThis will have very bad effects when playing video games and might(?) potentially increase battery usage when watching full screen videos. Compositing should only provide the fancy effects like Wobbly Windows and window previews in the alt-tab switcher etc. Not sure why this is causing KWin to crash... You can use Alt-Shift-F12 by default to toggle compositing. But if you're not doing anything more graphically intense than playing turn-based or slow-paced video games then I guess you can use that option to permanently leave on compositing.
