I have not experienced such crashes. What I do encounter now and then is the compositor being disabled due to it crashing and kwin-tiling very much depends on the compositor. My $HOME is mounted via NFS on several workstations of various hardware quality. Some have Nvidia and that seems to be where most of my problems are. My only other complaint is trying to move a separate chromium-browser window into another so as to merge tabs. That gets a little weird because things seem confused as to whether I wish to make this one browser window the new master or merge it into the master. What I've found works rather reliably is to make the window that's to receive the tab the master and then drag the other tab into its tab bar. In any case, the few hassles I encounter are so much less time demanding than all the window management I manually did before adopting kwin-tiling. If I could only have "focus follows eyes", I'd be quite happy in the WM serving me rather than the other way around. :-) John Florian ___ devel mailing list -- devel@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to devel-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/devel@lists.fedoraproject.org

I've not tried (not a KDE user), but wanted to offer that it might be easier to swap out the window manager completely completely rather than using a script/extension. KDE 4 + 5 look to have provisions for this by making a script that does `export KDEWM=/path/to/your/wm` [1].

I use https://github.com/lingtjien/Grid-Tiling-Kwin I've got no issue with it except it doesn't work in Wayland. Previously I've used https://github.com/Jazqa/kwin-quarter-tiling and https:// github.com/kwin-scripts/kwin-tiling (by faho) but it was a little unstable.
