After months of testing, weeks of writing, here is finally my new full Linux install guide: "Interim Install Guide: KDE Neon User Edition for a professional digital painter workstation": https://www.davidrevoy.com/article1145/interim-install-guide-kde-neon-user-edition-for-a-professional-digital-painter-workstation

Everything about Drawing Tablet, Color Management and Calibration/Profiling on KDE Plasma 6 Wayland, and all to survive the packaging mess with eg. built-in tutorial to revert version of Flatpak, scripts to beta-test Krita, and more!

The most complete article I ever published!

A photo of my workstation, three display: one of them is a drawing tablet with a display. On the screen: while coloring in Krita the character Litchee the Pink Fairy of my weekly comic series Mini Fantasy Theater. My cat, a red tabby, look at the camera while comfortably sited on his pillow, disposed strategically on the side of my desk for him to not sleep on my keyboard.

@davidrevoy@framapiaf.org For the Flatpak management, including changing versions and disabling updates, check out Warehouse. Saves you from the CLI 😊

@slumberingcat Tested and oh my 😍 It's amazing. Version, stopping update, a nice GUI, control and backup of the preferences... It's a little dream. Thank you for the recommendation! I'll update the article, this is really a better way to do that.

Quick mirror of my article on my other server: https://www.peppercarrot.com/extras/html/2026-05-23_KDE-Neon-for-digital-painter-guide_mirror/ because my blog is in a overload situation, too many visitors, I hope it helps!

@davidrevoy Not sure if mobile Internet is failing for me, or if we just gave your site a hug of death
