5.6 | Dark Background loss
-
This is a really nice forum package.
anyone know what it's base on ? -
@LandisTwo I would like to help but i do not run SuSE, only Ubuntu GNOME, Mint XFCE and Debian KDE, and i do not have Plex media server installed.
Which Plex do you use?
I will try 1.29.2.6364.//EDIT: local server tracks and sends data to plex website. No thanks, I am not willing to test a media server which needs connections to outside to work! -
@DoctorG,
I'm running PMS Version 1.29.2.6364 as of 2022-12-12
DoctorG, KDE should be KDE. openSuSE is 'just an OS'.if not willing to try Plex, what would you recommend.
I am willing to try another, even though I've invested 6 years into PMSthere is way to use local IP://web/.
I agree about the 'needing connection to outside'.
It's useless if your internet is down... all those movies sitting there that can't easily be watched. (pain in the ass granting 'unsecured' access).Landis.

@DoctorG said in 5.6 update loses dark backgrounds as did chrome 1 month ago:
Missing dark background of context menus can be fixed with chrome://settings/appearance , switch to GTK and restart.
Thanks worked like a charm.

OK looks like there is another issue with theming and file dialog. I installed a new Arch based distro named CachyOS, updated it once on the desktop, tweaked it, and installed all my apps. Yesterday when I went to download a item I notice the dialog box for saving was white not laid out different than it should be. I thought maybe use GTK got switch to Use Classic but that is still set to use GTK. On top of that the rightclick menus are themed correctly where they weren't before. Please see the below screenshots. Top one is CacyOS and the bottom one was taken in Manjaro. The dialog boxes in each image should be identical even though they are on different OS's, OS's based on Arch with the Plasma desktop. Thanks

@LocutusOfBorg Really no one on this?

@LocutusOfBorg The Linux world has always had amateurish 1-2 man distros amongst the good and established ones, in this case it seems he/they have forgotten to include or are not aware of the
kdialog
package, so either install it or remove that OS junk from your PC... -

@LocutusOfBorg Just ran that poser distro in a VM with Vivaldi, and
kdialog
was definitely not there, I installed it and the file dialog worked, so thanks for wasting my bandwidth and time with that one. Never again. -

So many Linux distros with different Desktop Managers and GTK & QT libs.
You need to wait until a person with same OS as yours can help you to test.

Now that said did you use a different version of kdialog? Mine here is just kdialog from their repo? If you did let me know which one. Thanks

@LocutusOfBorg Now that you have installed
kdialog
and you don't see any difference, this can only mean that something is interfering with it, meaning you have installed the wrong version ofxdg-desktop-portal-*
while you were installing flatpak or some other program, where*
is eithergnome
orgtk
. So remove any of them or both and choose thekde
version instead, then you won't needkdialog
and you can remove it. -

When I log back into Cachy I'll check xdg-desktop-portal though there should be no issue there cause I use pamac-all which has AUR, Flatpak, and Snap already supported in Arch distros I run. I do thank you for helping me run this down.

@npro that worked perfectly. Had to remove both the gtk and gnome versions and replace with the kde version. Thanks very much. I don't know why you didn't have kdialog, maybe something I normally install pulled it in as a dependency. Any way thanks again.
