Got an older Laptop from a friend of mine because Win11 is too slow on this machine.
The install and update of Solus KDE went smooth, all fine.
All in all a very nice Laptop.

    c2p it's amazing how poorly current Windows runs on perfectly decent hardware!


      ***I am brand new to the budgie dock. two weeks now. I like the very clean look. and I never get sick of the old solus Tullamore pics.

        I've done a lot of little tweaks over the years with Solus - custom styles, four custom system tray apps I made, rotating wallpapers, etc. Really like how I've gotten it by this point.

          Hi Brent,
          which package did you install too get that dock (up there)?

              Would you tell us which wallpaper that is?
              Could you share it with us?
              It's such a nice photograph!

                  Thank you, just saw that, too.
                  EDIT:
                  Found it, you click TOP in the POSITION settings. [But how can one move the dock to the top of the screen as Brent has done it?]

                      SOLUSfiddler glad you liked the simplicity.
                      whatever I did here:

                      resulted in the tullamore picture above as soon as I activated the dock slider:

                      so it centered itself is how I remember it.

                        My wife and I used to use that (or similar) as our lock screen backgrounds, so when we locked our computers at night, they displayed that night scene. Now, we just hibernate them, so they turn off completely at night, and I kinda miss those backgrounds.

                        EDIT: That reminds me, I miss Tulamore Dew, as well. I need to add some to our next grocery order.

                            WetGeek I got Jameson's on the list. 🥃 . Usually a holiday staple but has been a year--

                            Did you also just get Firefox update on a Wednesday night? Must have been some critical vulnerability.

                            edit. looks like @Harvey just fixed a handful of known bugs (via changelog)

                                brent I got Jameson's on the list.

                                I like Jameson/s as well. Irish just doesn't get the love that Scotch does, for some reason. Thus, it's generally more affordable. All the more reason to like it, in my book.

                                I don't remember the Firefox update, but then, I don't use Firefox. Sorry.

                                  having switched to plasma after a lengthy relationship with gnome

                                  ive found great consistency in the "fluent-dark" theme,
                                  bottom middle floating panel for task manager
                                  top panel with commonly used widgets in the middle
                                  shoutout to the chatgpt widget also!

                                    that must be a trip and a half🙂

                                    what's the dock? is it built-in plasma dock/panel (like budgie has) or latte or other? all looks great.
