Edit: Kubuntu22.04 seems to work. Thanks for your help.

I’ve tried to install plasma onto my new Framework 16. When I installed kubuntu directly, then after the second reboot, my laptop didn’t start up again. It shows the Framework logo, but then nothing. Then I’ve tried to install Ubuntu first, and everything worked, but after installing KDE afterwards and rebooting, I’ve the same problem. Even esc doesn’t bring anything up. What am I doing wrong? Does anybody have experience?

I’ve used Ubuntu/Kubuntu 24.04

    The only “solution” i found was goung back to kubuntu 22.04. Since then it works without Problems. I hope somebody finds the bug and fixes it sometime 🙈 I didn’t seem to have problems with ubuntu 24.04. But i didn’t try it very long maby i just didn’t encounter them.

      Thanks for confirming! The keyboard was working intermittently and the touchpad stopped working completely this morning. 22.04 here I come

        @Darkbug @Feeee23 My FW13 is happy on 22.04 LTS, and 24 is too recent for me. After getting bitten by (what looks like) an optimisation bug with gcc -O3 in Fedora 40, I’m back on Ubuntu, and holding back with 22.04 LTS for a while longer :-)
