I'm trying to record a part of a youtube video using vlc. VLC cannot play the file if I use Ctrl+n to give url. But I solved that by using this function in my bash_aliases.
vlcstream ()
{
vlc --meta-title "$(youtube-dl --skip-download --get-filename "$1")" $(youtube-dl -f bestvideo --skip-download ...

Like the user in previous post, I would like to thank the devs and everyone else for MX KDE. Had been using MX default ( XFCE) and then had installed KDE plasma on top of that. Was mostly satisfied, barring a few aesthetic glitches. Now everything works wonderfully. Even the new 5.8 Kernel works ...

For 32-bit system, best browser choice would be Palemoon. Used it for years on my old computer. Even use it now with Firefox and Chromium on my new-ish 64-bit system.

LXDE would perhaps be the lightest *full* DE available. Of course, stand-alone Window Managers would be even lighter.

MX KDE would be great !!! Pretty much the only thing I dislike about MX is that it has no offcially supported KDE. I'm using Dolphin, Krusader , Kate, Konsole ,Yakuake, Nomacs (already was installed with XFCE) , Digikam, SMplayer, Qbittorrent , all QT apps and all but the SMplayer , Qbittorrent and ...

Slightly modified wallpaper for KDE Plasma, Credits to Original Uploader.

Could be that synaptic, MX package installer and some other MX tools are launched as root and so doesn't get any theme applied to the GUI.

Oh yes, you're correct. The MX PackageInstaller is also written using Qt. But why does it not respect plasma dark theming? It still looks same as it did in xfce. What am i doing wrong? Most MX apps I have checked so far (I haven't checked them all) and also synaptic (which is GTK unless I'm mistaken ...

I've had KDE debian with 350-400 MB Ram usage. KDE has become almost, but not quite, comparable to XFCE in resource usage. The little difference that still exists hardly matetrs if one has 4 GB+ ram. Of course, aesthetics is subjective so I'm not going into that debate.

Yes I was bothered by lack of prompt in XFCE before as well. It's kind of funny because I see in the internet many people in countless forums asking how to disable prompts.

My setup is usually 2 distros dual boot. One always arch based (Currently Manajaro KDE) and one always debian based (currently ...
