KDE turns 30 with Plasma 6.8, remote upgrades, and an X11 farewell
摘要
KDE于10月14日迎来30周年，发布Plasma 6.8“30周年纪念版”，并正式停止Plasma原生X11会话支持。旧版X11应用仍可通过XWayland运行，KDE应用在其他桌面环境下也继续支持X11。Plasma 6.8带来多项改进，包括增强第三方应用窗口装饰支持、简化Union主题系统、默认启用Nvidia三重缓冲、集成Kup备份工具，以及新增命令
Marking the 30th anniversary of software developer KDE on October 14, the company released Plasma 6.8, debuted a movie, and retired Plasma's native X11 session support. The announcement from KDE dubs the new Plasma 6.8 as the "30th Anniversary Edition" and describes the update as preparing Plasma for the future. Legacy X11 applications will still function via the XWayland compatibility layer, and KDE applications will also continue supporting X11 under other desktop environments.
After 42 years in service, the X11 protocol is losing another major desktop environment. Plasma will fully adopt the Wayland system and put support for starting new X11 sessions in Plasma to bed. Users opting to stay on Plasma 6.7 will keep their existing sessions for now. The move was expected, with GNOME officially dropping X11 sessions by default in 2025.
The new Plasma 6.8 brings many improvements, including increased support for adding window decorations (like shadows and rounded corners) to third-party apps, and a more streamlined Union theming system. Other notable additions include Nvidia triple buffering being enabled by default, Kup backup integration (KDE's backup utility—now integrated into Plasma), and kscreenctl, a command-line utility that allows power users to adjust display configurations.
