Here is my new GNU/Linux distribution guide about Debian KDE 12, the right GNU/Linux distribution for professional digital painting in 2024! Also about three major problems with GNU/Linux distros that will drive away all professional artists, IMO, and how I got kicked out of the Fedora KDE ecosystem with F40, which imposed Plasma6 and Wayland. I hope it helps other artists here!

@nikatjef Hey, no problem. Check the discussion linked on the "2. The challenges and the issues" and you'll have all the background.

@triskelion lol, very cool! But also totally hard (impossible?) to discover for a newcomer. I'll update it on the article, thank you!

@carlschwan Thank you very much for the feedback and clarifications. Very good to know it's possible to get a Plasma6 X11 setup with the previous tablet config module. That should include maybe a Neon KDE Stable among my list of possible good distro for painting.

@nikatjef Thank you very much for reading. True, difficult problems and very challenging.

@halla :blobcatheart: Hey, take the time you need for the Qt6 port, I now have a home to run Krita as it is until 2028. I remember the old ports in the past (Qt3 to Qt4, etc) and how they are massive work. Take care!

@oblomov Thank you for the proofreading feedback 💜 (and sorry for them, I spent two weeks on this article 🙃 I'm now blind to the big mistakes) I'll update the article now.

@doctormo True, I needed a very common tragedy this time. 😅
I have to heal from an experience with my last distro.

@minixos Le truc et astuce est simple: avoir au moins 3 écrans (pas les même résolution et densité), tous avec le management des couleurs, colorimètre, une tablette graphique pro dans le lot, et un logiciel comme Krita qu'on pousse à 120% de ses capacités. On rajoute les milliers de packages pour diverse automations, un serveur local pour tester quelques sites, une bonne vingtaine de repo Git avec leurs propre scripts, et là, l'update en pleine deadline, ça commence à être quelquechose. 😉

@odysseywestra Outch! I understand. I'm not a player of the franchise myself, but I followed what happened over the last years by following video published by gaming channel on the topic.

@bhahne 🤣 🤣
Good idea, I'll keep it 🤑 I need one day a forced monetization variation.
Also, maybe a change of focus on the project and a refactoring: the sword become a large spoon.
So much to cover. This poor character might endure them all.

@Shatur Thank you! Right now, I'm using this tablet since end 2023 (that I love) https://www.davidrevoy.com/article1004/xppen-artist-pro-16-gen-2-review-on-gnulinux , and running on this PC configuration https://www.davidrevoy.com/article806/review-my-digital-painting-workstation-pc-on-gnu-linux (on Debian KDE 12).

I'll share later today an article about my setup updated. 🙂

@Shatur They do not replace a full keyboard, but they help at getting a better access. https://www.davidrevoy.com/article989/how-to-customise-a-usb-numeric-keypad-under-gnulinux , I use a lot the small 8Bitdo one, you can see it in yellow here https://www.davidrevoy.com/data/images/blog/2024/debian-kde/2024-05-30_01_thumbnail.jpg (a photo I just posted, very fresh). It's more a favorite collection of shortcut.

Plasma sometimes boots my desktop with completely fucked up screen alignment and functionality, like it has no idea how to tell apart which screen is which one.

It appears to happen depending on which screen I use to input password and login from xD

@collectifission Yes, I saw this one, good one! 😆
(I always try to search other webcomic strips within the theme my scenario is, so I can avoid to accidentally reinvent the wheel...)
