[Solved] KDE with Wayland crashes after login

Pilif3 · 2024-06-09 15:25:42

Since my last update where wayland, qt6/qt5-wayland got upgraded KDE crashes after login. There is a black screen with color lines for 1 or 2 seconds and then back to the login screen. If I switch to X11 then I can login but then for example firefox crashes if I open google maps.

How can I debug this?

I have the exact same issue with both KDE and Gnome after the last update. The problem persists even after a complete reinstall. I am at bed so I will post my loggs tomorrow.

I got my machine fixed by downgrading:
- wayland 1.23.0-1 -> 1.22.0-1
- mesa 1:24.1.1-1 -> 1:24.0.8-1
- plasma-workspace 6.0.5.1-2 -> 6.0.5-1

In that exact order. Not sure if all those are necessary, but the process was:
- wayland downgrade let me log in, but caused the KDE to lag
- mesa downgrade stopped the lag, but kicked me out after login
- workspace downgrade got everything in order

I also needed to reboot for everything to take effect (restarting just sddm did not take).

Try downgrading mesa .

Interesting, I also have a Pitcairn GPU of the Southern Islands generation. The AMD HD 7850.

Thank you I downgraded mesa and mesa-vdpau and it seems to work. I will try to open upstream an issue and post here the link

I found a solution without downgrading any package. My system was using the radeon kernel module instead of amdgpu although in the arch wiki it is stated that amdgpu does support cards of the Southern Islands (HD 7000 Series, SI, ie. GCN 1) and Sea Islands (HD 8000 Series, CIK, ie. GCN 2).

Following this archwiki article I forced the use of amdgpu and I can now use Wayland again without any problem so far.

Pilif3, please post lspci -k output to clarify if you are also using the radeon kernel module.

This is with the downgraded mesa - radeon in use. will try later with amd
