Hi! Are you able to check what software was updated, and through what method - command-line package manager, Discover, operating system update - in the last update that you mentioned?

Can you also please double-check if you’re running Ubuntu 24.04, or a modified distribution provided by another project? I’m just checking because Ubuntu 24.04 didn’t ship with Plasma 6 or Qt 6, and your device appears to be running not just version 6 of each, but unreleased versions of KDE software (see Schedules/Frameworks - KDE Community Wiki and Schedules/Plasma 6 - KDE Community Wiki) and the Linux kernel - so you might be among the first folks who are trying out some situations and encountering associated issues :slight_smile:

Hmm - given the platform that you’re running on, it’s a bit surprising that you’d get pushed onto what’s essentially the testing branch of KDE Neon.

If you’ve intentionally setup your system in such a way, then I guess that’d be expected - but if you’re not intending to test pre-release software, it might be worth checking with your distribution maintainers about how to get back onto a more regular release schedule?

Overall system performance issues could come from a variety of sources, but it might be worth double-checking that you’re on the intended release schedule first before diving too deep into diagnosing :slight_smile:
