Bug ID: 358965 Summary: MIddle mouse button on desktop cases kde desktop to freeze. Product: plasma4 Version: unspecified Platform: Kubuntu Packages OS: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: crash Priority: NOR Component: desktop Assignee: plasma-b...@kde.org Reporter: chris27wjoy...@gmail.com When the clipboard buffer is empty, if I middle click on the mouse the kde desktop top will suddenly start slowing down and then freeze. The mouse still operates, and I can switch to the console using Ctl+Alt+F1. A small menu pops up on the desktop that asks for a file locator. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Have fresh reboot. 2. MIddle mouse click on Empty Desktop area. 3. Try clicking on start menu, and it should not be working. Actual Results: Sometimes it will be slow popping up the middle mouse button menu. Sometimes the kde desktop will be working, but be very sluggish before halting. I used top on the F1 console, and it showed that kwin was using 100% cpu. Killing kwin resovled the problem, but kwin was no longer running. Other times kwin does not show up in top. Expected Results: Desktop freeze with system still running. I am using Kubuntu 14.04 3 LTS. KDE has been updated using the ppa. I am not certain if I have plasma 4 or plasma 5, KDElibs Version 4.14.13 Qt Version 4.8.6 Kernel 3.16.0-60-generic OS type 64-bit hardware 8xIntel Xeon CPU x5460 3.16ghz memory 11.7gib of ram -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
