Public bug reported: I am not able to reproduce this bug, but it seems to happen in conjunction with some KDE dialog. The only thing I can do is to switch back to the text mode console (CTRL+ALT+F1) and run
DISPLAY=:0.0 kwin_x11 --replace & What I get as output from this program is then: Module 'org.kde.kwin.decoration' does not contain a module identifier directive - it cannot be protected from external registrations.
