We're switching to https://invent.kde.org/kde-linux/kde-linux/-/issues/ for issue tracking in KDE Linux; can you re-file this there? I think what's happening is that the hostname isn't being set by Calamares anymore, and KISS doesn't do it either, so it gets left unset, and then your prompt defaults to something different.

Okay will refile! I also think that’s the reason. Just learned the new setup GUI is called KISS btw. |
Created attachment 184477 [details] Comparison between previous builds SUMMARY In KDE Linux build 202508261025, the login prompt on any TTY (e.g., tty3) displays the hostname as archlinux rather than the expected kde-linux STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. install kde linux 202508261025 build, raw file 2. boot into the live system, and use calamares to install the complete system 3. Boot into the installed system, finish the setup guide, enter the desktop, and switch to any tty, I used tty3(ctrl+alt+f3). OBSERVED RESULT hostname in login prompt shows 'archlinux login' EXPECTED RESULT used to be 'kde-linux login:' or '{username}-standard-pc login:' for some builds. In 0703's build seems also to be 'archlinux login': SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Linux/KDE Plasma: 202508261025 Build ADDITIONAL INFORMATION Not sure if it is a bug or a feature.
