#1 rising distro - "Antergos, which allows you to select your desired Linux desktop as you go"

Maybe they will share the code of the desktop switcher with other distro's.

LinuxNoob: I did this and KDE Connect still does not work. I also don't see any
difference.  But Thanks!

From my experiences using kwin , It's only a window manager however there are 2 different commands that load up the KDE desktop modules (as far as I got) Like I said I enjoy the XFCE desktop but daddy does like some candy as well. lol

Look at the bottom of that tutorial link and it explains on how to discover the other modules listed. Maybe kde connect is there.


--- Code: ---kcmshell5 --list
kcmshell4 --list
--- End code ---

Under kcmshell4 I found these modules available
device_automounter_kcm - Configure automatic handling of removable storage media
emoticons              - Choose Emoticon Theme
filetypes              - Configure file associations
icons                  - Customize KDE Icons
kcm_attica             - Manage Social Desktop Providers
kcm_kdnssd             - Configure service discovery
kcm_phonon             - Settings for the Phonon multimedia framework
kcm_ssl                - SSL Versions and Certificates
kcmcgi                 - Configure the CGI KIO slave
kcmkded                - KDE Services Configuration
kcmnotify              - System Notification Configuration
kcmtrash               - Configure trash settings
language               - Language, numeric, and time settings for your particular region
spellchecking          - Configure the spell checker

Coastie:
XFCE is my favorite desktop environment. Then probably Mate then Budgie. KDE isn't even on my list.

Instead of asking Jerry and his team to do so much work, why don't one of the ones who want KDE add it by Synaptic and report back how it works out.

tek10:
Basing on KDE Neon would be a great place to start. Very "Lite" for a KDE system.
