Bug ID: 460594
Summary: Plasma crash happening since 5.26.0 update
Classification: Plasma
Product: kwin
Version: 5.26.0
Platform: Archlinux
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: grave
Priority: NOR
Component: core
Assignee: kwin-bugs-n...@kde.org
Reporter: mlchatnoir...@gmail.com
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
At a random point, sometimes when I’m not even using my computer actively, the
whole system taskbar/notification/menu freezes and doesn’t answer to
interraction anymore.
When the “freeze” happens, I can still use normally the already-opened
applications (can only switch between them with alt+tab though). The taskbar is
simply unrespeonsive, and moving windows makes the whole display crash even
further (then only my mouse can move and not interract with anything).
It’s a very frustrating bug because even the terminal shows all-black when I
try to open it after a crash, so I can’t really do anything besides a forced
manual restart.
The one time I managed to have a terminal open before the freeze, the following
commands worked to “fix” it:
```killall plasmashell
kstart plasmashell```
Which convinced me this is a Plasma bug and not something else.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
The bug seems to occur randomly

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
I filed this bug under kwin but I have really no idea if it's this specific
product causing problems. Also, if needed, I can probably run commands in a
terminal next time the freeze happens, don't hesitate to ask me specific
commands.
Thanks for the help/reaction
