Odyssey ships no print daemon on a fresh install, to keep the base minimal. Because of this, the Plasma print panel opens empty and gives no hint that the print service is missing. This is a KDE limitation: the KCM cannot tell you what to install. workaroundInstall the print stack and enable the service, then the Plasma panel works normally and printers appear: sudo xbps-install -S cups cups-filters hplip sane sudo ln -s /etc/sv/cupsd /var/service/ Both steps can be done graphically too, with xbps-gui for the packages and guinit for the service. A Hardware module in the Control Center will make this a single click on a future release.

On laptops with a Radeon 890M (Strix Point), moving objects show scattered green, blue and red dots. This is a bug in the amdgpu panel self-refresh path, not in Odyssey — the same artefacts appear on other distributions with the same hardware. workaroundAdd amdgpu.dcdebugmask=0x410 to the kernel command line, from the Boot panel in the Control Center — or press e on the GRUB entry to try it once before making it permanent. Setting Adaptive Sync to "always" in the display settings works too. Confirmed on a Radeon 890M: slightly more battery drain, no measurable slowdown.

If you set up a WireGuard connection with a preshared key in Plasma and then log into another session — labwc, XFCE, niri — the key is asked for again. Nothing is lost. Plasma stores it in KWallet, which only runs inside Plasma; other sessions use a different secret store and cannot see it. It happens in the other direction too. A single shared secret store for all sessions is planned for the 2028 Edition, handled by the Network panel in the Control Center. workaroundMove the key out of the wallet and into the connection file. Open /etc/NetworkManager/system-connections/wg0.nmconnection as root and, in the [wireguard-peer.<PUBLICKEY>] section, set preshared-key=<your key> and preshared-key-flags=0, then run sudo nmcli connection reload. The trade-off, stated openly: the key is then in cleartext in that file. It is readable only by root, but it is no longer in an encrypted wallet — fine on a single-user desktop, your call otherwise. If you prefer the wallet, re-enter the key once per session type.
