CachyOS is arch based, which allows you to use the holy ArchWiki. wiki.archlinux.org/title/KDE Is what you’re looking for. Good luck!

aStonedSanta OP ,

Thank you. This is what I ended up using. Swapped to SDDM. Then removed gnome. Things seem to be good. Gnome-desktop and gnome-desktop-common appear stuck due to lutris but I’ll figure that out later

jeffreyosborne ,

Glad it worked! And what do you mean stuck? As in that you can’t remove them?

Don’t know about Cachy. But the general way is to just install KDE and then change where you want to go in your login-manager. You might have to disable automatic logins to get that.

Many distributions have some kind of meta package that installs everything KDE related called kde, kde-desktop or plasma-desktop.

After everything is running how you like it you may remove all Gnome packages and install sddm instead of gdm as a login manager. But that’s optional.

This is exactly what I was looking for confirmation on based on my limited reading lol. Ty. I’ll attempt this. If I brick it eh. I love tinkering. 💜😆
