5.6 | Dark Background loss

@npro said in 5.6 update loses dark backgrounds as did chrome 1 month ago:

@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...

Not helping in any way at all ESPECIALLY since kdialog is installed. Being a ass is not helping.

@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.

Really no one on this?

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.

As I stated I checked and kdialog is installed. 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 of xdg-desktop-portal-* while you were installing flatpak or some other program, where * is either gnome or gtk. So remove any of them or both and choose the kde version instead, then you won't need kdialog and you can remove it.

As I clearly stated I checked kdialog and it is installed already. 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.
