Unable to poweroff and reboot in Plasma 5.8.0 and desktop problems

David Masa · 2016-10-12 22:18:02

Hi everyone. Since I upgraded to the latest version of KDE Plasma, power off and reboot option from the Application Launcher don´t work. Also, this is from before, I don´t have the hibernate and suspend options.

The second problem is that every time I log in the configuration of my desktop resets, except the panel. I would like to fix that soon. Has anyone got that error? My DM is SDDM.

And the last but not the least important error, is the screen recording. I´ve been using simplescreenrecorder, but it seems to be a problem with Plasma 5. I´ve tried other softwares to record my desktop, but I get the same result.

If someone can help me, specially for the 2nd problem, I´d be thankful. Anyway, thanks in advance!.

export KWIN_PERSISTENT_VBO=0
export KWIN_USE_BUFFER_AGE=0
kwin_x11 --replace &

Regarding the poweroff it seems a policykit, thus logind issue.

loginctl
loginctl show-session $XDG_SESSION_ID

I´m sorry, but I don´t get what those outputs mean

You enter that in konsole.

The first block alters some environment setting and restarts the window manager to see whether that can cure anything reg. screen recording.

For the other ones, simply share the outputs for inspection of whether your session is wonky. (The likely cause of failed sessios permissions)

In general, whenever you do not understand something, google or duckduckgo are great sources of knowledge.
Also please refrain statements like "i do not understand something (but won't tell you what)" - they're beyond pointless.

I could solve the problem of the desktop not saving the configuration. I was using linux-libre-grsec kernel, but then I changed to another kernel and the problem solved, also with the poweroff and reboot issue.
I could not solve the issue of the screen recording, but It´s better than before.

What I still cannot solve is the suspend and hibernate issue, anyway thanks!

While I was recording my screen....
