I used KDE twice to give it a chance last year, well the last time I clicked on a theme to see it bigger. Then I wanted to leave to the theme regular area, no back button at all. I closed the theme area and went back and opened it and it was back to the detailed part for that theme. I literally had to reboot to get the program to run normal again then later I did it again forgetting or thinking it was a one time thing, same thing. KDE is out now. I'm looking at either LXDE or LXQT for my next trial run on a desktop since I never tried either of them or tried one on a distro that wouldn't boot to live or wouldn't install or wouldn't show a login screen which for linux is far to common lately. As for the settings all but the minimal interface, older need a larger interface and the last time I tried I was only given 3:4 resolution options for my hdmi tv which really pissed me off. I did give it 16gb of ram and 4 cores of my cpu and 256gb of vram so I wasn't conservative at all in the resources area for the emulation and it still as a pain in the ass. I think most of the problem is the amd motherboard itself and the fact I just found out my battery died on the motherboard that might be a factor thought I never shutdown after the install on it at all. I think once my batteries get delivered I'm going to have a much better fast system. I never occurred to me that the batteries might be almost gone when I bought this new around 6 months ago but thinking about it the way tech is jimmy rigged to run that there may be more than the bios that depended on a strong battery or the bios was storing a setting or 2 that I wouldn't have thought would be stored there since I've had installs that run super fast but after I do a first reboot they slow down and likely attributed it to something in the update after install or the new kernel.
