KDE, dolphin, "selecting" file with RMB in empty space?

i want to be able to delete a file without having to select it first with LMB. this is because i can only select it with RMB when i click on the file name, whereas i am able to select the file with LMB even in the empty space after the filename. this may not look like an issue in this example but i have a lot of files that are only 3 characters long plus file extension so most of the line is empty space. furthermore i don’t understand why the behavior is different in the first place. is there a setting for this? edit: dolphin v25.12.3

Things I adore about #kde #plasma part 9000: When I have a problem, I can search out an answer and get one that works. KDE doesn't reinvent itself from the ground up every few years. Today's example: I changed the UI scaling factor a few days back, but hadn't run Zoom since. Zoom is a poorly built Linux application, so when their "Workspace" came up, it was sized way larger than my current display, so all the sizing gadgets were invisible. NO PROBLEM! Just hold down Meta/Super and right drag. Whichever corner of the window you're nearest to will determine the resize vector you get. SWANK :)

Groźny atak na szyfrowany komunikator Gajim przez lukę w KDE Plasma Wiele współczesnych naruszeń bezpieczeństwa nie wynika z pojedynczego, spektakularnego błędu (np. klasy naruszenia ochrony pamięci). Prawdziwa esencja ofensywnego rzemiosła leży w łańcuchach podatności. Często dwie właściwości aplikacji, które pojedynczo wyglądają na niegroźne słabości lub błędy o niskim priorytecie, po połączeniu mogą dać zabójczy efekt. To historia o tym, jak jedna... #Aktualności #Teksty #Cve #Gajim #Kde #Rce #Sivert #Xmpp https://sekurak.pl/grozny-atak-na-szyfrowany-komunikator-gajim-przez-luke-w-kde-plasma/

@dreamos82@mastodon.world what don't you like about Wayland? I've been running it on all but one system and it's as good or bad as xorg in my experience. One system wont run KDE over Wayland - which bugs me. I've had issues with both, but can't say one is drastically better than the other at the moment. #Debian #kde #XOrg #Wayland

Since I still don ´t like #wayland (everytime I decide to use something is not working), and my favourite DE has decided support for #xorg I fully switched to #sonicde a #kde desktop environment that will be focused on supporting xorg!

Ok, I think I've got this display card under control - or so it seems. It hasn't crashed since Wednesday.

I guess this is a combo AMD RDNA3 Navi23 and KDE Plasma (+ Wayland?) bug...

I backed out all my Linux kernel command line switches for AMD GPUs and it crashed to green screen in less than a half hour. So, re-adding them stopped that from happening.

... amdgpu.dcdebugmask=0x410 amdgpu.tmz=0 amdgpu.gpu_recovery=1 amdgpu.sg_display=0 ...

And then the cursor thing is fixed <?!> by adding

KWIN_FORCE_SW_CURSOR=1

Currently this is what is set:

cat /proc/$(pidof kwin_wayland)/environ | tr '\0' '\n' | grep KWIN :

KWIN_DRM_NO_AMS=1 KWIN_DRM_NO_DIRECT_SCANOUT=1 KWIN_FORCE_SW_CURSOR=1

From a user experience point of view I don't see any difference with that software cursor setting.

There's another wrinkle to this that might be a factor but I can't really test around it currently. This is a multi-head machine and one screen is connected via HDMI and one is DP.

Perhaps this wouldn't be a problem if both screens were connected via the same type of connector.

Both screens are set to the same refresh frequency. But, in the display control app one reads back at 60.00 Hz while the other is 60.000 Hz. Minor thing right? But in trying to make this work I've seen references to AMD GPU weirdness in multi-head configurations where the refresh rates were different between screens. Red herring perhaps.

Anyway, don't know if there are (or will be) any people trying to make a RX 5800 XT GPU behave under Linux but this seems to be what worked for me and my dual head setup. I'll update if anything changes.

First Oct 2025. Then Oct 2026. Now Oct 2027!?! #Microsoft 's extensions of #Windows10 EoL shows how arbitrary the decision is.

As it should be! #KDE supporters @slimbook@linuxrocks.online @kubuntufocus@mastodon.social @tuxedocomputers@linuxrocks.online @frameworkcomputer@fosstodon.org sell HW with #FOSS out-of-the-box.

I’m sharing a bit of my trip this week with my mobile Krita/KDE Neon Linux workstation. Tiny samples from the train, Wikimania conference, and the hotel room! Producing my weekly comic this way was challenging, but I’m really glad it worked out! #krita #kde #train #wikimania #wikimania2026 #paris #painting
