Bug ID: 461600
Summary: Plasmashell exited (apparently didn't crash) for no
reason (desktop and task manager went away)
Classification: Plasma
Product: plasmashell
Version: 5.26.2
Platform: Manjaro
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: critical
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: plasma-b...@kde.org
Reporter: php4...@gmail.com
CC: k...@davidedmundson.co.uk
Target Milestone: 1.0
SUMMARY
I was typing code in PHPStorm, I moved the mouse cursor towards the bottom of
the screen to reach for the task manager, and suddenly (not sure if before or
after the cursor got over it, and not sure if triggered by it or by
coincidence) the task manager disappeared, sliding down nicely as if it was
hiding on purpose (something that it never does under any circumstances).
At that point I tried to use the keyboard shortcut to minimize all windows and
see the desktop but that didn't work.
I manually minimized all windows and found that the desktop was black, as I
suspected.
Luckily I remembered that I already had a terminal window open, and Alt+Tab did
work.
So I relaunched plasmashell from the terminal. Had that not been the case, I'm
not sure if I could have launched plasmashell from a Ctrl+Alt+F2 virtual tty.
The output of `coredumpctl` doesn't show any line for plasmashell. I'm told in
#449351 that that means plasmashell did not crash. So it somehow "exited"
gracefully??
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
