AdaOS KDE Plasma Installer

Built for AdaOS

This is a simple Bash script to install the KDE Plasma Desktop on Debian-based systems, branded for AdaOS.
It supports minimal, standard, and full KDE profiles, and lets you choose which display manager to install.


✨ Features

  • Install KDE Plasma (minimal, standard, or full package sets).
  • Interactive Display Manager selection (sddm, lightdm, gdm3, or none).
  • Optionally installs:
    • KDE utilities (Dolphin, Konsole, Kate, Ark, Plasma Disks)
    • Multimedia codecs (VLC, FFmpeg, libavcodec-extra)
    • Printer support (CUPS, drivers)
    • Flatpak support
  • AdaOS branded output + log file at /var/log/adaos-kde-installer.log.
  • Cleans up packages after install.
  • Can automatically reboot when finished.

🔧 Usage

1. Clone or download

git clone https://github.com/Ada-OS-Linux/adaos-kde-installer.git
cd adaos-kde-installer

2. Make the script executable

chmod +x adaos-kdeinstaller.sh

3. Run it with bash (not sh)

sudo ./adaos-kdeinstaller.sh

⚠️ Don’t run with sh — it will fail. Always use bash or ./.


📦 Options

You can pass options to customize the installation:

Option Description
--profile minimal Minimal KDE Plasma (desktop shell only)
--profile standard Standard KDE Plasma (recommended, default)
--profile full Full KDE Plasma (all KDE apps)
--no-extras Skip extras (codecs, printers, Flatpak, utilities)
--reboot Automatically reboot after install

Example:

sudo ./adaos-kdeinstaller.sh --profile standard --reboot

🖥️ Display Manager Selection

During installation, you’ll be asked which Display Manager (login screen) you want:

  • sddm (default, KDE’s official DM)
  • lightdm
  • gdm3
  • none (skip, configure manually later)

📄 Logs

All actions are logged to:

/var/log/adaos-kde-installer.log

🚀 After Installation

  • Reboot your system:
    sudo reboot
  • Log in to KDE Plasma using your chosen display manager.
  • Customize Plasma via System Settings.

⚠️ Notes

  • Tested on Debian 11 (Bullseye), Debian 12 (Bookworm), and newer.
  • Requires bash, sudo, and internet access.
  • For NVIDIA GPUs, enable non-free repositories and install nvidia-driver if desired.
