Did Fedora 40 break something for you?
Did Fedora 40 break something for you?
I am running Fedora 39 right now and the last time I did a distro upgrade my graphics drivers were a huge PITA. Did your upgrade to 40 went smooth?

Yes. Numerous COPR repos not updated aside, my sddm theme broke and doesn't detect Qtgraphicaleffects (which is installed). You know what the weirdest part is? There are 2 "dependencies" for the theme: quickcontrols and graphicaleffects, and luckily, quickcontrols was detected properly. I ended up rewriting the theme, and while it works, it is far from where it needs to be. Safe to say, I'm very annoyed.
Edit: I actually did a clean install, as I tried some other distros a few days before F40 released.

So those are either random 3rd party problems (please contact the COPR maintainers, there is Discourse integration) or direct Plasma issues :D
I was also a bit hesitant to already upgrade, as I tried Plasma 6 before and it wasnt perfectly stable, but I actually havent had any issues yet.
3rd party stuff of course
- minimal desktop indicator
- video lockscreen (ironically had a Qt5 bug with seemless playback that may now be fixed)
Some extensions have alternatives like Thermal Monitor, but upgrading was unintuitive. It needed removing and adding back.

I don't use plasma so definitely not plasma issues. I use SDDM on the Sway Edition and then install Hyprland as my Wayland Compositor of choice.

I think SDDM is mainly maintained by Plasma people? But I dont know.
