Need help with my fresh arch install (newbie)

[mystic turret]

yo new to arch here , needed help with two things:-

1. i wanna remove kdeplasma cuz i installed i3 afterwards and i plan to stick to that , i tried to remove kde but some services depend on that so i cannot.

2. secondly i got no sound neither from pulseaudio and pipewire

[uncut obsidian]

1. pacman -Rns plasma then show us which packages is causing then the dependency fail

2. if youre using a laptop or have a motherboard that uses onboard audio you might need to install sof-firmware for the audio drivers

[mystic turret]

okay

[mystic turret]

yes im using a laptop

i cant paste a photo why?

also the sound problem is fixed

here

@uncut obsidian

[uncut obsidian]

[mystic turret]

its an endless,loop when I remove the things that required is required by it keep giving me same error and other dependencies

so make sure to look at what packages are being uninstalled
