I have a similar problem. I installed wine and mono, too (I'm not sure if wine depends or not on mono) and I tried to install Search Everything, the 64 bit version of the windows program. The installation didn't even start. In another distros it works.

I wonder if anybody succeded in installing something with this borked version of wine.

I tried to use KFind, but there is something strange. For example, I'll try to find a file from an external drive. The drive's location is /run/media/"user"/"the drive name". But if I try to set the location in KFind, I can only choose locations from the home folder. I can select /run/media/"user", but that's it, I cannot select anything else past the user's name, like there is no external drive mounted.
Something is wrong, here, and I think that this is why I cannot use Dolphin to search files in external drives.

Using KaOS I constantly feel the lack of good search program. Yes, Plasma search works beautifully for the files from your home folder, but I have lots of files to search stored in another partitions (and I need to search them all simultaneously). At some moment I tried to solve the problem by indexing all those partitions in baloo, but after that it appeared another problem: baloo is re-indexing the files from those partitions always after each restart. And it also uses too much disk space for my taste.
When using Ubuntu or Arch, I use fsearch, in Windows, "Everything search engine". Could somebody package fsearch for our community, please? It's a great program and I think it would be best that fsearch were included in the default apps in KaOS and every other linux distro.
Also, in KaOS a simple search in another partitions using Dolphin's "find" command still doesn't work.

demm I installed the bumblebee driver, now everything is ok. Thank you.

bvbfan : I tried your solution, the system didn't boot.

After updating to plasma 5.13 the display is flickering before entering a plasma session. The screen is flickering, too, when I click on the menu and I sometimes see some very quick artefacts all the time when minimizing/maximizing programs.
I am very disappointed by this plasma version. I read that other distros had problems with it, too, and now I understand why did you postpone so much the change to 5.13.
Is there anything to do?

After the last two updates, my wifi doesn't connect automatically. I had the same problem a few months ago, but disappeared after another update.
It's not a big deal, but I like to think about my KaOS system as being close to perfection

Hello
I tried to upgrade my system. Here is why it can't be done:
error: failed to commit transaction (conflicting files)
util-linux: /usr/share/man/man8/rfkill.8.gz exists in filesystem
Errors occurred, no packages were upgraded.

Any ideas?
Thanks.

demm It's almost a month since I have this problem and it't still not solved. It's sad to see such lack of competence and professionalism in the linux world.

demm Thanks, this recommendation solved my problem. The look is not so terrible, by the way

Hi all
Every time I start LibreOffice, there is an increase in CPU usage - about 12-13% (I have an i7, 4 cores CPU). I don't know if it's relevant, but I also had a problem updating KaOS because of LibreOffice, more precisely, because of the breeze dark set of LibreOffice icons - I solved it deleting the icons and then copying it again in the icon folder. What could explain this strange behavior (high CPU)?
Thanks.

Thanks for your reply. Interestingly, the java plugin works in Firefox (the actualized version) in all the other linux distributions I have (Ubuntu and Ubuntu-based, Manjaro, Fedora) and in Windows, too.

Thank you both for the answers. I discovered a way to make search work in dolphin: clicking on "Find" opens a few tabs with some settings for the search options, and then I select "Everywhere" instead of "From here (user)" , as bvbfan suggested. I guess that in another KDE distros the default setting is Everywhere, and this is why I was confused about not getting the results I wanted.
All is clear, now.

Sorry, I don't understand your recommendation. Let's talk about a specific user case: I want to find a specific pdf file in a large folder on a specific partition (not "home"). If I simply apply your method, I cannot find anything - and it doesn't make sense, because the "search" should be directed to the specific folder where I operate the search.

Hello, again. I want to draw the attention on the fact that the java plugin for browsers doesn't work. I play a browser game called managerzone, which has a football/hockey simulator functionning as a java applet. It works on every other linux OS which has icedwebtea in repositories, except KaOS.

Hello. What should I do to make Dolphin "search" function work? I guess it's a problem with accessing files in partitions separate from "home". In the settings, all I could find is the possibility to exclude locations (partitions) from search, not how to enable it in these locations.
Thanks.
