Plasma 6 landed in opensuse. However, I recommend to do it in tty because if you do it in plasma the upgrade will be incomplete because the shell will crash in the middle of update without installing all. In case this happen to anyone, just reinstall plasma 6 pattern and it will go without problems
WOOO amazing!!
also, thanks for the recommendation ^^
I just installed this accidentally by clicking update all in the Discover app. It seems like it was successful and didn’t fail halfway, but I’m still confirming that. Everything seems to be working as of now.
I had to reset a lot of settings, unfortunately.
Yeah, when I saw the update I canceled, logged out and ran zypper dup from a tty. Rebooted and logged into a Plasma 6/Wayland session. Went swimmingly.
I think this kind of update is where “atomics”/immutables really shine. Install the update on a new separate snapshot and activate it at boot.
How exactly did you do it? Any links to instructions and commands?
First logout of Plasma, then you can change to tty 4 (for example) with ctrl + alt + F4, then you can login there with your user and do the upgrade safely in that other tty (or another one if you want to haha, just not in the normal desktop).
I think the Plasma desktop is always in tty 3 (ctrl + alt + F3) and the Plasma login is in tty2, in case you want to go back.
So I’ve updated my desktop and Plasma, Nvidia, and Wayland is actually usable 🫨 but I had to reapply a few settings.
