It will take long time to resolve this problem. Those who want to use IBus with KDE, please use start IBus via IBus's service file. $ systemctl --user enable org.freedesktop.IBus.session.generic.service $ systemctl --user start org.freedesktop.IBus.session.generic.service Or, alternatively, modify ibus-autostart.desktop and /usr/bin/ibus-autostart as mentioned above. I will soon change IBus so that systemd-xdg-autostart-generator ignores it again. https://bugzilla.suse.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1202841
