[plasmashell] [Bug 457668] New: slow to desktop and widget does not load properly
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=457668 Bug ID: 457668 Summary: slow to desktop and widget does not load properly Product: plasmashell Version: 5.25.0 Platform: Archlinux Packages OS: Linux Status: REPORTED Severity: critical Priority: NOR Component: general Assignee: plasma-b...@kde.org Reporter: lestofant...@gmail.com CC: k...@davidedmundson.co.uk Target Milestone: 1.0 SUMMARY After update to 5.25 (not sure about sub-version, looking at my deletion of .config it is few days after 5.25.1) startup has been very slow. After login, it used to be pretty much immediate to have usable desktop; now i get my background without any panel for 5-10 seconds, then the screen goes black, then desktop appear. Also my Vaults, KDE Connect and maybe few more will NOT load properly, they are running but see no vaults/device connected, i need to log out and log back in; then the log in will be immediate as normal, and all the widget works as expected. So pretty much for a few weeks I log in, wait ~30seconds to log in, log out, and log in again. I tried removing the ".local/share/plasma*" to start from a clean startup, but the issue persist. There seems to be no error reported in jounalctl, so i have no idea how to start debugging this. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. update to 5.25 2. log in OBSERVED RESULT very slow to desktop, broken widget EXPECTED RESULT immediate to working desktop SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Operating System: Arch Linux KDE Plasma Version: 5.25.4 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.96.0 Qt Version: 5.15.5 Kernel Version: 5.18.16-arch1-1 (64-bit) Graphics Platform: X11 Processors: 12 × AMD Ryzen 5 3600 6-Core Processor Memory: 15.5 GiB of RAM Graphics Processor: AMD Radeon RX 5700 XT Manufacturer: Gigabyte Technology Co., Ltd.

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=457668 --- Comment #2 from lesto --- (In reply to Nate Graham from comment #1) > How many screens are you using? AH, ok, if we talk screen, then something weird also start to happen. First of all, i am using xorg, with 2 screen, primary is 1440p 75Hz and the other 1080p 60Hz The 1440p is slower to start up, but lately seems to be "slower". Switching to a virtual terminal with ctrl+alt+Fx seems immediate and works correctly. BUT, this also happen when only the 1440p monitor is on. > Are there any crashes during login? You can check using `coredumpctl > --reverse`; the items at the top will be the most recent crashes. If you > find any, can you paste the output of that command that shows the new > crashes that happened during login? no crashed according to `coredumpctl --reverse`, just a few of unrelated program i use daily (vscode, clion, teams) I logged in into a test user, that should be clean. Same problem, login from sddm started at 23:28:37, i got dolpin opened almost immediately full screen (so it IS able to restore session, at least partially correct, it is trying to open my main user home.. but sure was not left open on that), panels does not appear until 23:29:30, then the system is fully usable. Then i log out at 23:29:53, at 23:30:02 there is a coredump, and actually what i notice is instead of monitor going black for a moment after log out, it took a few seconds longer. At 23:30:33 we can see the second login, and in less than a few seconds I am on the fully functional desktop. Notice, this was a default user, my main user does NOT use session restore, so we can exclude some rogue issue there.

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=500657 --- Comment #5 from lesto --- this issue is not about how to fix the issue, is about it being silent to the user, so there is no user-friendly way to investigate; you need to know what to look for in the journal, know that akonadi uses a DB (and what DB your distro uses), that uses custom data folder (and where they are) and/or that there are command to try repair it. On top of this, is very hard to find anything about this issue, both on search engine and asking AIs.
