I've used Linux Mint 17.1 KDE (without Plasma) and I was glad by this OS but when I upgraded Linux Mint to 18.2 version with KDE Plasma that world of Linux Mint disapoint me. Plasma is shit. I will not describe all bugs because it are so much that I don't have time for reporting, it will be easy to search new distributive because I must work and not write reports. So, 1. Wallpaper manager does not work 2. Some applications can not be excluded from autostart because I don't see it there but it starts automaticaly 3. Network manager permanent deletes file /etc/resolv.conf and I've tired permanent to write it manually 4. Manager of User groups is missing and therefore I can not resolve USB 2.0 in virtual box 5. X11/xorg latest version hard hung sometimes and load CPU to 100% 6. Impossibble adjust Hot keys for run applications Conclusion is such: Why it need such beauty when it does not have functionality and works slow??? Plasma is shit. Return pure KDE
Roman, this is Valorie Zimmerman from the KDE Community Working Group. Bug reports are helpful, and the more specific they are, the more helpful they are. The report you filed is so insulting and non-specific that it has been found by the developers to be worthless. First, file a bug for one issue. A list of complaints is useless. Most of what you list has nothing to do with Plasma, if any of it does. Plasma doesn't manage wallpapers, or network manager, or system user management, or your version of x11/xorg. I suggest you file some individual bug reports on Mint's bug tracker, and change your attitude before doing so. Free software is all about collaboration, and that includes bug reports. A good BR is a clear, factual report to the developers, and an offer to work with them to make the software better that they work on and use too. Instead of this, you have made them angry, and worse: gave them zero information. Resolved INVALID.
