There's still a bunch of little bugs in KDE6, they'll get ironed out over time. For the KDE connect bug I use a ydotool command to emulate an enter key press to accept the remote command access from my bed.

That's a great workaround, could you share the command?

The command itself isn't complex:

YDOTOOL_SOCKET="$HOME/.ydotool_socket" ydotool key 28:1 28:0

The hard part is getting ydotool to run on boot for your user (no sudo). I had to create a bash script to run on login with the following line:

ydotoold --socket-path="$HOME/.ydotool_socket" --socket-own="$(id -u):$(id -g)"

It's a bit hacky but it works.

Thank you, I didn't know about ydotool, I'll get it working on openSuse
