[05-23-22 20:11]: perhaps you have a permissions problem using the command as "user". ???? Hi Patrick, thank you for responding, I will intersperse my replies within your responses so as to keep this organized. Hmmm I am not sure what you are referring to here, but guessing here is the permissions for the sto relevant commands:
nova:/etc/systemd/system #which kquitapp5 /usr/bin/kquitapp5 nova:/etc/systemd/system #ll /usr/bin/kquitapp5 -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 14888 Aug 26 2021 /usr/bin/kquitapp5 nova:/etc/systemd/system #which kstart5 /usr/bin/kstart5 nova:/etc/systemd/system #ll /usr/bin/kstart5 -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 44256 Aug 26 2021 /usr/bin/kstart5
so "user" does have execute permissions
file:///usr/share/plasma/plasmoids/org.kde.plasma.pkupdates/contents/ui/Full.qml:278:9: QML Button: Detected anchors on an item that is managed by a layout. This is undefined behavior; use Layout.alignment instead. file:///usr/share/plasma/plasmoids/org.kde.plasma.pkupdates/contents/ui/Full.qml:292:9: QML BusyIndicator: Detected anchors on an item that is managed by a layou t. This is undefined behavior; use Layout.alignment instead.
Note: I was unable to run these commands as root, I get the following error message if I try -
# kquitapp5 plasmashell && kstart5 plasmashell "Application plasmashell could not be found using service org.kde.plasmashell and path /MainApplication."
I would say your system has problems as root, "zypper ve" the result should be: Dependencies of all installed packages are satisfied.
nova:/etc/systemd/system #ps aux | grep plasmashell root 17490 0.0 0.0 10256 848 pts/11 S+ 08:47 0:00 grep --color=auto plasmash ell marc 23370 0.3 1.4 1948144 229976 ? Sl May23 3:22 /usr/bin/plasmashell
so plasmashell is running, pid 23370 you can kill is manually by: kill 23370 then start it: kstart5 plasmashell or if that fails: plasmashell but I do not know the ramifications of starting plasmashell that way.
ps: your sig is trash and has worthless, uninforcable legal ramifications. junk!
My sig is mostly meant to be humorous, there is no legal notifications within it. There is some Morse code for fellow amateur (ham) radio operators to have fun decoding, and some explanation of the attached digital signature key. Sorry if you found it confusing and not obvious! Thanks again so much for helping me try to solve these system slowdowns I am experiencing.
you are not endearing yourself with anyone this way. a sig is supposed to be limited to four lines! you just contribute to junk network traffic.
One more item of note, trying to use x11vnc service on the machine that is experiencing a slowdown, and then connecting in to it remotely from another machine using vncviewer is next to impossible! Then the response times become excruciatingly slow, up to 5 minutes or more and sometimes it just crashes the remote system..
I have not used x11vnc for many years, would not want to speculate, but I always found tigervnc to be quicker. and x11vnc "probably" has nothing to do with your plasmashell/system-slowdown problems. -- (paka)Patrick Shanahan Plainfield, Indiana, USA @ptilopteri http://en.opensuse.org openSUSE Community Member facebook/ptilopteri Photos: http://wahoo.no-ip.org/piwigo paka @ IRCnet oftc
