    Yeah also don’t like the dock, but with KDE Plasma at least you can make it full width as it is so nicely customizable. VM, oooo I wonder how it will run there, I guess it will be quite slow, at least Plasma 5 was a lot slower in VB for me than later on real hardware, so it might not be well representative.

        Yeah I hear good things about qemu. Will really have to reserve some time to learn it some day. And just for kicks I have just tried and installed KDE Neon into VirtualBox too, and damn I am actually surprised how fast Plasma runs under it, definitely faster than Plasma 5 did. Another job well done :)

          Just to get back to you, I installed it as well and I was surprised how fast it ran.

          I couldn’t change the resolution in the VM however. It would only give me a black screen. So I was stuck with a basic small resolution.

          I also noticed that you can’t change the taskbar style from floating to fully a docked taskbar that takes up all the space without gaps. That’s a shame in my opinion. But as soon as you open an application window, it does take that “no gap” shape.
