Bug ID: 497581
Summary: Plasma freezes, everything else runs
Classification: Plasma
Product: plasmashell
Version: 6.2.4
Platform: Arch Linux
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: major
Priority: NOR
Component: "Manage Desktop and Panels" window
Assignee: plasma-b...@kde.org
Reporter: benmorde...@protonmail.com
Target Milestone: 1.0
I have a very frustrating problem where Plasma freezes completely such that
none of the panels are interactive and their are stuck with their state exactly
when they froze. The time does not update, etc. Pressing the Meta key which I
have mapped to open the task launcher does not work. The only way to switch
active windows is Alt-Tab or clicking the window, and the only way to launch
new programs is with Alt-Space or typing them into a terminal window.
Sometimes, but not always, my Brave browser ceases to allow you to switch
between tabs, but this may be its own problem or a common cause, because this
browser behavior can occur when plasma is not frozen.
Plasma is not considered “crashed” and Dr. Konqui does not launch. Forcing a
relaunch of plasmashell or kwin does NOT fix the problem.
The problem shows up with both Wayland and X11 sessions.
