KDE Plasma 6.8.1 Desktop Environment Released with Various Bug Fixes
This release improves the reliability of Plasma’s built-in RDP system when
receiving connections from the Windows RDP client.

The KDE Project released KDE Plasma 6.8.1 today as the first maintenance
update to the latest KDE Plasma 6.8 desktop environment series with an initial
batch of bug fixes.
KDE Plasma 6.8.1 introduces an OSD that will be displayed when using
the keyboard to increase the brightness when it’s already at its maximum
level, just like it already does when you try to increase the volume when it
is at its maximum level....

I tried out Wayland the other day. Curiously after I did that
and rebooted my Thunderbird install failed and could not send mail.
PCLinux will be going to Wayland with KDE Plasma 6.8.?
I hope Mageia and its users fair well.
