Plasma Bigscreen

Plasma Bigscreen has issues when started directly, so we're launching a normal plasma session first
$ dbus-run-session startplasma-wayland
Then we can replace that with the bigscreen session
$ plasmashell --replace -p org.kde.plasma.mycroft.bigscreen

Launching Plasma and Bigscreen

Put this in .bash_profile

if [[ -z $DISPLAY ]] && [[ $(tty) = /dev/tty1 ]]; then
	dbus-run-session startplasma-wayland
fi

Create a script that launches bigscreen

#!/usr/bin/env bash

plasmashell --replace -p org.kde.plasma.mycroft.bigscreen

Add the script to "autostart" in the settings. Make sure executable is set
