    In this post, I finish my experiment to install different desktop environments in this respin.

    In previous posts I installed different desktop environments:

    LXQT:

    In this post, I show how to install KDE plasma desktop environment in this respin:

    1. Installed KDE plasma (after sudo apt update):

    
    sudo apt install task-kde-desktop
    

    during install, it asks if you want to keep slimski as the default login manager.
    I said yes.

    2. logoff, and pressed F1 to get to /usr/bin/startplasma-x11, and login

    As you can see, it works. I am typing this post in this KDE plasma desktop.

    Perhaps you can give this iso a try if you want KDE plasma as desktop environment in an antiX trixie system.

    If you want to boot into KDE plasma, make sure that the

    ~/.config/slimski.lastused file has the word:

    
    /usr/bin/startplasma-x11
    

    Good luck.
