Since I learned of hyperland I've been very tempted to switch from Plasma but I spent so much time setting my desktop up it's not worth it.

Would this affect systems booting to the refind bootloader without secure boot? Sorry for the ignorance just trying to figure out if I should be changing my system for this news.

The true blue Ubuntu is Kubuntu

In the system settings under Appearance > Colors I edited a color scheme. The base color scheme I'm using is KvDarkRed.

On my duel booted system I still have windows. But I haven't had to use it in a couple weeks and at this point might just delete it and go fully into Linux only. Just a few windows only apps that are making me unsure. Might try windows vm.

It's a video using Smart Video Wallpaper

Here is the plugin: https://store.kde.org/p/1316299/

Agreed it's nice to have everything match pretty easily

So far it has been nice. Though I have nearly broke the GUI because the customization is so deep. I enjoy that aspect but it can be frustrating and I can see that being bad for someone who doesn't know what they are doing.

edit: also thanks for saying it looks nice I spent way too much time putting it together

The global theme is just called Kubuntu but I heavily customized it with other themes and widgets.

Thank you! Changing the line to "rw root=/dev/nvme0n1p4 quiet splash" did the trick. Your actually said /dev/nvme1n1p2 so I know enough about partitions that I changed mine to dev/nvme0n1p4 to fit my case. I only know that much about it because I'm running a duel booted system and had to deal with partitioning when I set it up. Your right to point out that I'm a bit over my head when using refind, but I changed it instead of using grub because I like the customization with themes and I read somewhere that it could help with windows updates messing up duel booted systems.

edit: I'm now having a new problem where it's not using the boot splash screen that I specified in the settings. It just the oem logo with a kubuntu logo under it. At least I've made some progress 😂

Sorry about that, I edited the comment to a pastebin link. Okay here is my /boot/refind_linux.conf file:

"Boot with standard options" "ro root=UUID=96e2ea68-742d-4309-ae9f-4d12ba668b21" "Boot to single-user mode" "ro root=UUID=96e2ea68-742d-4309-ae9f-4d12ba668b21 single" "Boot with minimal options" "ro root=/dev/nvme0n1p4"

Should I just edit the boot standard to "rw root=/dev/nvme0n1p4"

edit: tried that change and it did nothing

In this thread I explain my problem. When I switched from Ubuntu to Kubuntu I lost the boot splash that I had with Gnome. I have no idea why. Please help me get the best boot experience from Linux as possible. Thank you.
