Recently I was looking for a **laptop**: the previous one I had (an Asus EeePC 900) was almost dead (the fan broke, and the idea of dismantling everything to get to it wasn't appealing).

## Introduction
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
I've found myself in a situation where my ISP, notorious for having problems with certain online services (not to mention putting everyone under a permanent NAT) started misbehaving with Sony's Playstation Network: I was getting timeouts of all sorts with no reason (and reading online you see all sorts of attempts from people to work around the issue). When using my phone as hotspot, everything worked, as I went through my mobile operator's network.
|
||||
|
||||
But of course I couldn't do that, even so because I have a data cap. ;) Therefore, I decided to work around the issue. As I have access to a dedicated server (the one that runs this blog) I thought I could redirect traffic through it via OpenVPN. On the other side (at home) I have a very nice piece of kit, Ubiquiti Networks' EdgeRouter Lite, which acts as router for my network.

Following up on yesterday's release, I've released Danbooru Client 0.3.0.
|
||||
|
||||
This early new release is mostly due to the fact that the QML view file wasn't installed (sorry!) so part of the UI would not even load (or even crash).
|
||||
|
||||
That said, I've managed to get some extra features in:
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
* Fade-in/out animation when posts are being downloaded
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
* Support for tagging is back (EXPERIMENTAL): it is optional, and requires KFileMetaData (not yet a framework, but should be distributed with Plasma 5).
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
### Release details
|
||||

||||
|

Currently, there is only a source tarball. For security, I have signed it with my public GPG key (6E1A4E79) and I have also provided a SHA-512 hash of the release.

## Live media for Plasma 5
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
One of the most-often requested ways to test Plasma 5, given it can't be coinstalled with the 4.x Workspace, is the availability of live images to test either in VM or bare metal without touching existing systems.
|
||||
|
||||
Given that other distributions started doing so since a while, naturally openSUSE couldn't stay still. ;) Thanks to the efforts of Hrvoje "shumski" Senjan, we have now live media available for testing out Plasma 5!
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
* [Download location](http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/KDE:/Medias/images/iso/): the ISO file you're looking for is called _openSUSE-Plasma5_ (currently x86_64 only)
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
The image is based on the current Tumbleweed and takes the latest code from git. If you test this in a virtual machine, bear in mind that there are some issues with VirtualBox and Plasma 5, and that QtQuick's reliance on openGL can cause problems in general with virtual machines.
|
||||
|
||||
And if you find a bug... if it's in the core distribution, or in the KDE packaging, head over to [openSUSE's Bugzilla](http://bugzilla.opensuse.org). If it's instead in the software, the [KDE bug tracker](https://bugs.kde.org) is your friend.

With the upcoming Plasma 5.3, we feel that it is of the level of quality expected from the default openSUSE desktop, and therefore we have set up preparations for the switch. As Rome wasn't built in a day, it won't happen straight away ;) but it will involve changes in the repositories and in the packaging, which are summarized below:
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
* We will start the migration around the end of April, as long as the basic openQA tests are ready;
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
* We will release KDE Applications 15.04 in Tumbleweed at the same time;
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
* The KF5 ports of the applications present in KDE Applications 15.04 will **obsolete** their existing counterparts (hence the KF5 version will replace the 4.x version). The same will happen for the _kdebase4-workspace_ and Workspace 4.x packages;
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
* Afterwards, the 4.x Workspace will not be supported or maintained for Tumbleweed. Help from the community is welcome in case anyone wants to step up and maintain the packages.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
* The default menu applet will be Kicker (as opposed to Kickoff used in the 4.x tiems;
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
* The default theme for Plasma 5 will be Breeze (the upstream default), and we will use the menu structure provided by upstream KDE (as opposed to the custom structure we use today);
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
* The repository layout will change. We will have three repositories holding KDE software:
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
* KDE:Frameworks - the KF5 libraries and Plasma 5;
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
* KDE:Applications - KDE Applications releases
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
* KDE:Extra - Other KDE/Qt related community packages.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
* For each of these repositories, there will be also an "unstable" variant, tracking the current git master state.
