MX Modified - Latest MX KDE 5.22 Using MX21 beta

[MAYBL8]

I noticed when I close the lid on this laptop which forces the computer to suspend that when I open the laptop back up I can ping ip addresses on the internet but I can't get to websites. I think somehow I lose DNS. If I ping www.something.com I don't get a response and none of the web pages in the browser responds. When I reboot everything is back.

I've lost networking a lot too, although not while suspending or hibernating, as I don't do those. Usually I try killing the NetworkManager process and restarting it with sudo NetworkManager. You might try looking through the tlpui program to see if there is any power setting for suspend that would be of use to try adjusting. If you don't have tlpui installed then just sudo apt install tlpui, and then you can start it from the command line with tlpui or find it in the main menu. Its options are very well documented at https://linrunner.de/tlp/

I came here to comment about your new blog post and KDE 5.22, but you beat me to it Norbert. For Dan or anyone else using Norbert's repos, you are going to need to update them as follows in order to get all the new KDE goodies (details in Norbert's blog post):

Code: Select all

deb https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/npreining:/debian-kde:/frameworks/Debian_Unstable/ ./
deb https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/npreining:/debian-kde:/plasma522/Debian_Unstable/ ./
deb https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/npreining:/debian-kde:/apps2104/Debian_Unstable/ ./
deb https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/npreining:/debian-kde:/other/Debian_Unstable/ ./

Any news you can share on when Debian 11 is likely to land Norbert?

[norbert]

Probably

Code: Select all

deb https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/npreining:/debian-kde:/other-deps/Debian_Unstable/ ./

is also necessary to ensure the availability of recent enough plasma-wayland-protocols and qalculate stuff - or use Debian/experimental.

Updated link on initial post maybe...

OK I did it. That first post has been updated so many times now it's taken on a life of its own. It's like raising a child.

I wonder how many people have tried to follow those instructions? One? None? 10? We have some readers who don't speak up, it's hard to say, maybe a couple more people are using franken-MX-KDE-Sid as their daily driver. It would be fun to gather any available testimonials one of these days.

Running Plasma5 on a Commodore 64 sure is impressive ;-)
