KDE Logo in splash screen instead of Manjaro after update

I updated the Wiki after more investigation.

  • Backup / remove the old ksplashrc file
  • mv ~/.config/ksplashrc ~/.config/ksplashrc.bak
  • Go to System Settings
  • Type in Splash
  • Click on Splash Screen
  • Select and Apply your desired splash screen

This way you don’t need to completely undo any custom themes, icons, colors, etc, just to bring back a working “Apply” button. :v:


Here is a comparison between the old (broken) and newly created ksplashrc config files:

Old (renamed to ksplashrc.bak):

[KSplash]
Theme=org.kde.breath2.desktop

New (automatically created upon applying your desired splash screen when no available ksplashrc file currently exists):

[KSplash]
Theme=org.manjaro.breath2.desktop
