Pixel art of a fractured coastline where the bruised violet of the departing sun bleeds into the deep, insistent blue of the water, a liquid memory of light. Layered clouds, like the scales of some colossal, slumbering beast, ripple across the expanse, each fold a whispered secret of the coming night. Below, the sand is a charcoal sigh, punctuated by the jagged teeth of stone, each rock a solidified shard of a forgotten storm. The water holds the ghost of the sun’s warmth, a shimmering distortion that pulls at the edges of the beach. A solitary structure, a dark spine rising from the earth, anchors itself to the horizon, its arched windows like vacant eyes staring out at the dissolving light. The shoreline is a slow unraveling, a collection of silent geometries, and the water’s surface a restless mirror reflecting the fading grandeur of the sky, a slow surrender to the deepening dark.

I've encountered an annoying problem

A critical shared Library that's used by FFMpeg and of course also used by MPlayer was not in the installation. It was an odd because even a remove reinstall of FFMpeg didn't fix the problem.

Since I'm in no mood to install a development environment from the command line to compile FFMpeg from scratch I just wiped the KDE distro and started all over.

While I was busy with the new installation so I was on the live ISO FFMPEG worked just fine and the library was there working perfectly.

You can already guess what happened when I booted into the new installation.

FFMPEG was installed by default by the distribution, since VLC is installed by default, but the shared library was missing!

¡WTF!

Then I encountered even more bugs, privilege escalation errors!

These bugs and errors have nothing to do with KDE!

They have to do with problems with the distribution from the perspective of my maintainer. It is my task to see if I can reproduce the problems after I fix them by hand if that does not take too much time and effort.

The photograph captured in total darkness shows a multi-monitor setup with two screens. The top screen displays a blue background with a landscape image of a sky with clouds and a body of water, along with a window showing a list of items. The middle screen shows a blue background with a text-based interface, possibly a command prompt or terminal, with white text on a black background. The bottom screen features a dark background with abstract light streaks in purple and white, and a blue bar at the bottom. The screens are arranged in a staggered formation, with the top screen tilted to the right, the middle screen tilted to the left, and the bottom screen positioned horizontally. The overall color scheme is dominated by blues and purples, with white text and light streaks providing contrast.

Sometimes micro migration failures bring blessings, I learned how to use

xfce4-screenshooter -S -d 2 --window -s "$HOME/Pictures/$(date +%Y-%m-%d_%H-%M-%S)_Screenshot2.png"

from the commandline because it started to fail to add the date to the screencaps after the migration on my main MX linux install which is XFce4 based

This sequence also opens a thunar window sorted to date with the screencap. Of course the sorting is previously configured in thunar

The image shows a terminal window with a black background and text in various colors, primarily green, white, and red. The user is logged in as "metalloid" on a system named "drawpedie." The user is in the directory "/gate/audio/raw/flac/αBeats∞." The terminal output includes several commands and their results: 1. The first command is "last | lolcat," which attempts to display the last logged-in users using the "lolcat" filter for a humorous output. The response indicates that the file "/var/log/wtmp" does not exist. 2. The second command is "sudo touch /var/log/wtmp," which creates the "/var/log/wtmp" file with root permissions. The user is prompted to enter the password for "metalloid." 3. The third command is "last | lolcat," which is executed again after the file has been created. This time, the output shows that "wtmp" begins on "Sat Apr 19 10:22:19 2025." The terminal also shows the user's prompt, which includes the username, hostname, and current working directory. The overall appearance is typical of a Linux or Unix-based system terminal. 🌱 Energy used: 0.249 Wh

The next step was to config KDE connect in this KDE. Luckily I know that I need gufw to migrate my profile, from the xFce MX linux to this KDE MX linux.
It was a matter of installing gufw, which is not default in KDE distro, since it has its own nice interface. For me sticking with what I know is the easiest since I want to drive KDE on desktop again after so many decades, even though XFce is still going to be used most, due to shortcut muscle memory

The image shows a firewall settings window with a clean, modern interface. The window is titled "Firewall" and features a shield icon with the Italian flag colors, indicating the software's origin. The top section includes a menu bar with options like "File," "Edit," and "Help," and a toggle switch labeled "Status" with "kde" selected as the profile. The status is currently "off," as indicated by the toggle switch. The main section of the window displays a table with three columns: "No," "Rule," and "Name." The "No" column lists rule numbers from 1 to 13. The "Rule" column shows various rules, such as "445 ALLOW IN Anywhere" and "1714:1764/udp ALLOW IN Anywhere," with some rules allowing both incoming and outgoing traffic. The "Name" column provides descriptions for each rule, like "Samba - 445" and "KDE Connect UDP." The bottom of the window includes buttons for "Rules," "Report," and "Log," and a "+" and "-" button for adding or removing rules. The interface is designed for easy navigation and management of firewall settings. Ovis2-8B 🌱

I also encountered another problem; I can immediately tell you that it's not a KDE specific problem but it popped up in konsole.

The subject is fonts and the section is point size. The monitors I use are not of a small resolution. In fact an ideal IPS LED panel layout for me would be an 8K panel two 4K panels flanking it and two 1080p ultra ultra wide panels at a left and right of those.

With such a setup I can monitor different machines at the glance and control them with ease.

Even on my 1080p Ultra Ultra wide panel the default Point sizes for fonts are too small. On a scratch KDE based MX Linux installation, the following problem was repeated twice in Konsole.

The first time I changed font point sizes, closed konsole. When I reopened konsole the fixed with font, was replaced with one that appended spaces behind every couple of letters.

This rendered konsole unusable for work.

Changing the fonts Point sizes to the defaults again did not fix the problem.
Sinds that installation was Vanilla and didn't have enough space for home and root on one partition to actually Play with KDE, I wiped it and started again.

This time I deliberately did not change the point sizes even though it was hard to read. I then copied over some configuration directories from my other installation to this One, none of them related to anything KDE wise or any fonts directory. When I rebooted that installation The problem occurred for the second Time.

As with the wallpaper issue, I immediately converted that energy of irritation to something positive. I troubleshooted the font problem for a short while and when I couldn't isolate it I did a simple thing. I created a couple of other accounts on the same KDE installation to see if I could repeat the error.

That reproduction step is vital before a bug report is created. The other accounts were also residing on my other xFace MX Linux installations, which means I could simply copy them over to the other home partition where KDE was looking at.

In the other accounts I could not repeat the error.

That means a bug report is worthless because repeatability is crucial. Since the usage of a terminal in the K Desktop Environment is important, I changed my strategy and simply installed the xFace Four terminal in KDE. In the end that was a nice move since I know all the keyboard shortcuts of the terminal by hand they are in muscle memory and they have been there for years.

As a bonus I also installed other good shells in MX KDE the hashtags tell you which.

Right now I have a KDE installation in which I can actually work based upon the MX Linux KDE variant

I shall link a couple of photographs in a few minutes
