... after d-u-ing to plasma-workspace

and/or recent x11 transition.
Logout via ctrl+alt+del works (logout selection comes up), window switching via alt+tab works as well ...
Login sometimes works only after restarting runlevel 5, sometimes login stops after kde icon on black background appeared but not reaching plasma desktop.

So far, I am not seeing this on my main machine.

I do have nvidia blob installed, will do a du on 2 other machines (amd, nvidia cards, open source drivers) and see what happens, it's been a while for du's on those boxes ;)

I can confirm this, after switching to runlevel 3 for du using "systemctl stop lightdm.service" and when du finished "systemctl start lightdm.service"

Same problem here. From time to time the plasma panel freezes. K-Menu doen't respond, clock stops and selection of open windows is impossible. All open/visible windows are usable and Alt-Tab, Alt-F2 works. That happens for example with krusader copy-jobs. What helps here is Ctrl+Alt+F1 and after second Atl-F7 back. After that a lot of panel notifications without content are running. Strange to describe. I hope you got ot.


It's a dual-monitor setup with a radeon card/driver.

Just wondering how others suffering from this annoyance problem have made out with the alleged cure update.  It has made no difference to my machine which continues to freeze randomly and/or during the login.  I guess if it's just me I will have to reload the machine.  Thanks in advance for any comments.

I still have the same problem on my amd graphics  machine, can't figure it out yet, disabled compositor, nothing, freezes hard within 30-40 seconds, going to install a build I made a few days ago and see if anything changes.

Unfortunately, I must confirm those annoying freezes on my KDE siduction install  >:(
My initial faith in the proposed fix has been of short lived kind.

My newest build makes no difference with/without a du, going to try older kernel when I get home from work

For what it's worth, still occurs on the kernel that Dev 2 came with, at least on my machine.  As well, in desperation, yesterday I reloaded my machine and switched the debian repo to testing to try and get ahead of the freeze, and while everything installed and worked fine, the freezing remained.

Just toadd another voice:
I can watch the same behaviour as described above as well with xserver-xorg-core version 1.19.0-2 as with 1.19.0-3. But I noticed that I can get a working Plasma when switching to a Console (e.g. Ctrl-Alt-F1) and back again (Ctrl-F7). Nevertheless, that only gives me access to the Plasma functionality for a short time. But until now I did not found a deterministic way to reproduce a "freeze" again.

Please, to get to the bottom of this we need you to specify your graphics card and the used driver.
