\nWhile Plasma 6.7.1<\/a> was just released this week following the recent stable debut of Plasma 6.7, there are already a number of fixes piling up for Plasma 6.7.2 due out in July. Plus more feature work and fixes for Plasma 6.8 as the next desktop version going Wayland-only.<\/p>\n

This Week in Plasma is out with its newest issue and some of the most interesting highlights for the week include: \n<\/p>\n

Plasma 6.8 is introducing the ability to setup wallpaper slideshows that don’t change automatically but require manual intervention via the desktop context menu or its global keyboard shortcut. \n<\/p>\n

The upcoming Plasma 6.7.2 will fix the currently most common KWin crash. That KWin crash is around variable refresh rates with multi-monitor setups. More details in this bug report<\/a>. The fix<\/a> is ready to go. \n<\/p>\n

Plasma 6.7.2 will also fix a case where the KDE Info Center would crash when trying to display information about select NVIDIA GPUs. \n<\/p>\n

Aside from crash fixes in Plasma 6.7.2, that next update will also improve fullscreen video playback performance for Chromium-based apps. \n<\/p>\n

Meanwhile Plasma 6.8 landed a fix for a possible crash that could occur after you eject an audio CD from Dolphin or Audex. \n<\/p>\n

Plasma 6.8 also now turns on triple buffering by default for NVIDIA GPUs now that various other bugs have been fixed. \n<\/p>\n
