Bug ID: 476352
Summary: No app window shown - vscode / Chrome/ Electron -
Wayland, KDE6
Classification: Plasma
Product: kwin
Version: git master
Platform: Neon
OS: Other
Status: REPORTED
Severity: major
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: kwin-bugs-n...@kde.org
Reporter: stefan.hoffmeis...@econos.de
Target Milestone: ---
Any tested application based on Google Chrome / the Electron framework starts,
but fails to shown an application window on Wayland with KDE Neon unstable and
KDE 6. This happens on VMware Workstation 17.5.
This affects, amongst other applications
* Google Chrome
* Microsoft Edge
* Microsoft Visual Studio Code / VSCodium
* Slack
* Discord
This reproduces for me on VMware Workstation 17.5, running on top of Microsoft
Windows 11 Professional, with the following steps:
* create new VM with default settings
* boot from KDE Neon unstable ISO
* install to virtual disk
* reboot
* sudo apt update & sudo apt full-upgrade
* sudo apt install open-vm-tools-desktop
* reboot
* pkcon update
* reboot
* install affected software, for instance, Microsoft Visual Studio Code from
https://code.visualstudio.com/download -> ".deb" -> Discover (or VSCodium from
https://github.com/VSCodium/vscodium/releases)
* launch the software from Konsole with "code"
//exp: Software main window is shown
//act: Software launches (launcher feedback), task manager entry appears, but
no main window is shown
journalctl -xe shows (many of) these warnings which may be relevant
