I also thought about the memory modules (even though they are ECC), but
a few days ago I replaced them with 4 other modules from the server and
the problem persisted. Of course it could be anything else (graphic
card, power supply, etc.), but it's strange that it only happens after
booting when logging into KDE. When everything crashes and the login
screen reappears, I try to log in again, everything crashes again
(usually in the part where Signal Desktop starts, but I don't know if
it's related). I can repeat this 5 or 10 times, but until I reboot, KDE
doesn't fully start. When I reboot, the machine runs all day, even for
several days at a time.

It also happens that the screenlocker crashes

Jul 11 17:32:16 xxx kernel: pid 6487 (kscreenlocker_greet), jid 0, uid
1001: exited on signal 11
Jul 11 17:32:16 xxx kernel: pid 6489 (kscreenlocker_greet), jid 0, uid
1001: exited on signal 11

Then I have to log in as root via Ctrl+Alt+F2 and run: ck-unlock-session
Session1

Otherwise, when KDE is running, all applications work without crashing.

Could MySQL related?

IIRC, KDE defaulted its backend (for akonadi) to MySQL.
If you're using MySQL for something other than KDE, too, and any of
the database is/are heavily updated, is there any possibility that
MySQL cannot flush/commit pending transactions in time?

I already disabled all MySQL related services right after KDE installation. MySQL is also disabled in rc.conf, nothing needs it.

The machine in question has 24GB of RAM and 8GB of swap. OS is installed on top of Samsung SSD 860 EVO 1TB. So it should be fast enough to run KDE5 Plasma desktop (it actually runs KDE for a years), these crashes first appeared after some pkg upgrade this year. I don't pkg upgrade too often because it almost always come with some apps incompatibilities etc.. But the last pkg upgrade was done about a week ago and crashes are still there.

Kind regards
