No, because you may be running some Gnome (or GTK) app under KDE, which is why tracer detected goa-daemon. However the man page for goa-daemon says that it starts automatically on demand, so there's no harm in just killing it, e.g., with pkill. > With the suggestion to manually restart plasmashell how do I do that > without shutting the system down or is the KDE environment not running > under Plasmashell? I have a tiny script for that, thanks to Rex Dieter: $ cat bin/replasma #!/bin/sh # KDE list 06/01/2019 Rex Dieter <rdie...@gmail.com> systemctl restart --user plasma-plasmashell $ poc -- _______________________________________________ users mailing list -- users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to users-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/users@lists.fedoraproject.org Do not reply to spam, report it: https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure/new_issue
