5.10.2 updated to the latest. It's not properly navigable from the arrow keys. Can anyone confirm it?

EDIT: I can confirm that now it works okay: after shutdown and startup. Fresh installs are a headache. Then after a while things seem to normalize. In this particular case a reboot didn't help.

EDIT2: Nah, it's still very glitchy.

@wolfi323 Thanks. I'll try the LTS as promised then. Maybe I'll have a better experience on that one. Or a distribution proper.

Or wait for Plasma 5.10.3 which is going to be released next Tuesday already.

No idea if the Neon packagers are going to add the workaround/fix to the packages earlier, we do have it in openSUSE since Saturday...

Sorry, but it does not. I'll try to explain. It works but only of one never uses the mouse. As soon as one uses the mouse, it gets stuck an one can't navigate it from the keys anymore. After some working around it is navigable again from the keys.

SUMMARY: Mouse - Keyboard conflict affecting the Dashboard.

Try this: launch dash from superkey. Then, navigate by using the keyboard to Recent Applications. Then, click with the mouse on an icon representing a recent application. After opening up the app, close it. Then close dash from superkey. Then launch it again from superkey. Then try to navigate from the keys.

Definitely, there's something wrong with it. Try different combinations. Eventually, you'll get it stuck. Now it works now it doesn't. It's maddening.

Mine did not get stuck. Works perfect.

@ubulindy Use mouse, use keys ... you'll get stuck on whatever icon on the dash ... eventually. Try again.

Note: I'm not trying to wreck it on purpose. Normal usage is enough to wreck it.

I can't shoot a video capturing any single bug ... I'm going nuts.

I could and say we'll get it working right. Then when another update wrecks something, I shoot another video or what?
