menu
Product: plasmashell
Version: 5.23.5
Platform: Archlinux Packages
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: major
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: k...@davidedmundson.co.uk

CC: plasma-b...@kde.org
Target Milestone: 1.0
Created attachment 146081
--> https://bugs.kde.org/attachment.cgi?id=146081&action=edit
journalctl output grepped with 'plasma' keyword
SUMMARY
When I log into my Plasma session, there is no wallpaper (black background),
widgets are frozen, and no context menu appears when right-clicking on the
background. After a little while, the frozen widgets disappear. Everything else
seems to work fine (krunner, desktop effects, apps, notifications, etc.)
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Log into Plasma Wayland session.
2. Observe the bugs immediately.
OBSERVED RESULT
No wallpaper, frozen widget at session startup, no context menu on desktop
background.
After a while, the frozen widgets disappear.
EXPECTED RESULT
The wallpaper appears, the widgets work, a context menu appears when
right-clicking the desktop background, widgets do not disappear after a while
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Linux/KDE Plasma: EndeavourOS (Arch Linux) / KDE Plasma 5.23.5
KDE Plasma Version: KDE Plasma 5.23.5
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.90.0-1
Qt Version: 5.15.2+kde+r296-1
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
I have attached the output of the command `sudo journalctl -b | grep
--line-buffered plasma`. You will see core dumps by the process plasmashell. I
suspect this is linked to this issue.
I have tried on the Wayland session, but not the X11 session, as logging into
it after modifying things from the Wayland tends to fuck up all the widget
arrangement, multi-screen arrangement etc.
I am using two screens. Unplugging one does not solve the problem.
