[15.4] plasma session will not start: klauncher & ksplashqml segfault

by Felix Miata

Instead of Plasma session starting from the greeter, or using startx, two popup windows result: first: klauncher closed unexpectedly (segmentation fault) after some wait: ksplashqml closed unexpectedly (segmentation fault) # cat .xsession-errors Environment variable $XAUTHORITY not set, ignoring. /etc/X11/xim: Checking whether an input method should be started. sourcing /etc/sysconfig/language to get the value of INPUT_METHOD INPUT_METHOD is not set or empty (no user selected input method).

I searched the whole /usr/ filesystem tree looking for *launche*, before and after the reinstallations, and could not find klauncher (actually, nothing was returned from searching for *launch*). IceWM sessions work normally, so there can't be anything wrong with Xorg.

startkde: Could not start kdeinit5. Check your installation.

by Marc Chamberlin

Hi -I am running OpenSuSE Leap 15.3 x64 on one of my systems, and it is failing to start the desktop at the end of booting up. All I get is an XMessage box on a black screen with the error message "startkde: Could not start kdeinit5. Check your installation." Looking in the messages log file I see this message - messages:2022-06-04T13:45:32.942306-07:00 nova startplasma-x11[2747]: "/usr/lib64/libexec/kf5/start_kdeinit_wrapper" ("--kded", "+kcminit_startup") exited with code 127 I don't grok this message and Google shows lots of old complaints about this problem but nothing current or seemingly relevant. Can some kind guru(s) help me to get this poor computer run and show my KDE desktop? I did use zypper up to make sure my computer has all the latest updates, but that gave no joy solving this problem.

[kde][tw] logoff item missing from desktop context menu

by Felix Miata

I don't remember how many days ago this happened, but it hasn't been very long, probably as of 5.25.0. Is it something that is configurable, so I an restore it? -- Evolution as taught in public schools is, like religion, based on faith, not based on science. Team OS/2 ** Reg.

Gmail and "less secure apps"/KMail

by Martin

Hey I assume I'm not the only one here with a Gmail account set up in KMail/ Kontact. I wonder what you all have done with this problem of Google blocking "less secure apps" on Monday May 30 2022? I'm currently using POP3 access with "plain" authentication and SSL/TLS. But I expect to be blocked from reading/sending e-mail with KMail in a couple of days. From what I can find online I only seem to have two options. 1) Switch to IMAP and use OAuth login. I'm a bit nervous about this as don't have any experience with OAuth, and I have about 70k e-mails in my Gmail account, and I'm not sure how well Akonadi handles syncing that amount of e-mails these days - especially with all the funky IMAP folders that Gmail has. 2) Continue to use POP3 with an "app specific password" and two-factor authentification. This sounds like a total nightmare - even if I only have KMail configured to check new mail every 30 minutes :-) Anybody got any advice as to a good way to go? I'm contemplating taking this opportunity to find a different mail provider also. And at the very least I probably won't make any big decisions or moves until I've installed 15.4.

https://software.opensuse.org/package/liquidshell and 15.x

by Martin Koller

Hi, liquidshell is in KDE:Extra https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/KDE%3AExtra/liquidshell and also builds successfully for 15.3 However when searching on software.opensuse.org it does not show liquidshell being in KDE:Extra but only on "community package" in my home repo home:martinkoller Only for openSUSE Tumbleweed it shows KDE:Extra in the experimental packages.

Wayland and multi-monitor handling

by auxsvr

Hello, Using latest Plasma on Wayland (oS tumbleweed), if I switch to the linux console, then back to Wayland, only the mouse pointer appears on either monitor. Also, it seems that the position of the monitors as configured in Wayland becomes incorrect, as the mouse pointer does not move from one monitor to another, as it should. All programs in the Wayland session remain running normally and I have to use: loginctl kill-session to kill them and start sddm. Is this a known issue? -- Merry Christmas, Peter
