Re: [kde-unstable] Plasma 5.4 beta

i tried wayland unfortunately i too can't get any App starting...
kwin_wayland --xwayland and startplasmacompositor leads to the same result a black screen (which is supposed to happen) with startplasmacompositor i also get the splash screen but that's it.

Trying to start something with "DISPLAY=:0 konsole -platform wayland" isn't working everything just crashes with something like "wl_drm error authenicate failed".
I also tried running kded5 and kdeinit5, kded5 is actually starting but kdeinit5 isn't because /usr/lib/libkdeinit5_wayland.so is missing.

Re: [kde-unstable] Plasma 5.4 beta

It seems that tooltips are still unreadable in non native applications, like pcmanfm for example.
I have narrowed it down, breeze-gtk is not obeying color settings when it comes to tooltip background and tooltip text color.

It seems that gnome-breeze theme needs to have "force colors in non qt programs" disabled. It's fine that way.

Re: [kde-unstable] Plasma 5.4 beta

Has anybody gotten kwallet-pam to work? I was looking forward to automatic wallet unlocking but can't seem to get it to work.

Also: Seems Plasma 5.4  takes a lot longer to load from sddm to the desktop, anybody else notice that?

Re: [kde-unstable] Plasma 5.4 beta

It seems the new Breeze dark icon set is turning completely monochrome, which kind of surprised me. I reverted back to breeze-icons 5.3.2, which has normal Breeze icons for apps/folders and monochrome toolbar icons.

/Where/What is the best way to create a feature request for a split into Breeze Dark and Breeze Dark Monochrome?

Re: [kde-unstable] Plasma 5.4 beta

Anyone has same or similar problem?

(kwin_wayland:29437): Gtk-WARNING ***: Cannot open display :

and Wayland session shuts down and won't start.

Searching the internet, all I found is that it might have something to do with GTK CSD, but that was supposedly fixed in Qt 5.3.
Have no idea where to start looking for a source of the problem, or solution.

Have you used it in an environmental script before login or in X?
Is it fully working?
Do you have any useful information collection/ tutorial how wayland should be started/ configured on Plasma 5?

Re: [kde-unstable] Plasma 5.4 beta

No, i just boot, change into tty, login, stop sddm and use the command above.

I wouldn't call it fully working^^ Most of the icons are missing, the design isn't properly working, keyboard layout is wrong (i don't know where to change it^^) and shortcuts are not working.

Have you been able to find out why startplasmacompositor doesn't work? That's supposed to be the correct way to launch it.

EDIT: Maybe related to this? https://github.com/KaOSx/apps/commit/c9 … 4a9a7f9899

EDIT 2:
I can confirm that adding:

cd ${pkgname}-${pkgver}
sed -i -e 's|set(KDEINIT_OOM_PROTECT 1)|set(KDEINIT_OOM_PROTECT 0)|' src/CMakeLists.txt

in kinit PKGBUILD fixes startplasmacompositor. The wayland session is almost unusable though, the menus don't pop up at the right place, the mouse goes too fast, a lot of things just crash (like ksysguard), the windows decorations are wrong...

Re: [kde-unstable] Plasma 5.4 beta

yeah seems like the OOM protection is causing the plasma session not to start with the script (what the hell is OOM anyway? xD)

i didn't try to rebuild kinit with OOM disabled if someone wants to go ahead

Is anyone else seeing plasmashell take up 100% cpu with the beta?

Re: [kde-unstable] Plasma 5.4 beta

OOM stands for Out Of Memory. OOM_PROTECT is, most likely, protection from running out of memory.

EDIT: heh, spoke too soon. Apparently, OOM killer is a kernel thing, mechanism that prevents running out of memory, but if not additionaly managed, it can kill very important processes, It is up to program developers to write an OOM exclusion mechanism to prevent the kernel from killing something that is very important, so I now suspect that that is exactly what KDEINIT_OOM_PROTECT 1 does.

This happens also for me from time to time, though much less in the beta than in 5.3. The culprit is most likely a plasma widget on your desktop or on the panel going wild. If you can spot it, you should report it upstream
One case I met : https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=351297

Happens to me too.

I figured out that on my system it's the digital clock widget. As soon as you enable the "date" function plasma freezes.

*edit: ok, i just realized it's exactly what willy9 linked.

Re: [kde-unstable] Plasma 5.4 beta

Dolphin-plugins has missing mercurial support. There is not such an option in services menu. Others (Git, Subversion, Bazaar) are in place.
What's wrong with hg?
I have already 15.08 from testing

Removing $HOME/.config/plasma-org.kde.plasma.desktop-appletsrc did the trick.

Re: [kde-unstable] Plasma 5.4 beta

Is type to search in desktop mode working for anyone? Ie: if you start typing while on desktop window, will it automatically bring krunner up?
It isn't working for me. And i'm sure it wasn't working on 5.3 neither.

EDIT: bug confirmed, i found the bug report: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=347872 . Sorry.

oxygen-kde4 theme is not working in 5.4 final. Worked in RC.

EDIT: I've installed oxygen-kde4-git from AUR and is working again.

Re: [kde-unstable] Plasma 5.4 beta

plasma-desktop and all dependencies is going to [testing], I've installed it, but startplasmacompositor are still not working. Attempt to run this command from Konsole causes OS to die (also system doesn't responding on SysRq+REISUB magic key combinations).
Tab "Window decoration" in "Application style" causes systemsettings5 to close with segfault.
Waiting to fix those bugs until 5.4 will be in stable branch.
