Sorry, it's stranger than that.. plasmashell crashes on boot. 1) rm .cache 2) kbuildsycoca5 3) plasmashell crash just like on boot 4) rm .cache 5) plasmashell (from console)
* Black screen, but no crash 6) ctrl+c in console to stop plasma 7) kbuildsyoca5 8) plsamashell * At this point I have a desktop background but no menu bar. (repeatable) 9) rightclick > add panel > default panel * crash 10) rm .cache 11) plsamashell 12) ctrl + c 13) kbuildsyoca5 14) plasmashell 15) right click add empty panel. * Yeah, no crash!!! * Boo, no items in panel.. 16) add clock to panel (no crash) 17) add volume control to panel (no crash) 18) add application launcher (no crash) 19) add Icon only task manager (no crash) .. Okay, I have enough in my task bar to start working again.. If I ever figure out what item in the plasmashell -> default panel was crashing I'll let you know. (I was getting it to crash in 15.04 after the computer lost power, I upgraded to 15.10 and it still crashed.. Lots of variables, but it appears this issue might span releases) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1448102 Title: Kubuntu 15.04: plasmashell crashes To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/plasma-workspace/+bug/1448102/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
