Bug ID: 486756
Summary: fontconfig to turn antialiasing off freezes KDE plasma
Classification: Plasma
Product: plasmashell
Version: 6.0.4
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: Application Menu (Kicker)
Assignee: plasma-b...@kde.org
Reporter: djhaskin...@gmail.com
Target Milestone: 1.0
SUMMARY
fontconfig set to antialiasing freezes KDE and associated applications.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Place this in `~/.config/fontconfig/conf.d/10-no-anti-aliasing.conf`: ```
<match target="font">
<edit name="antialias" mode="assign">
<bool>false</bool>
</edit>
</match>```
2. Reboot computer
3. Log in
OBSERVED RESULT
Opened the application "Konsole". It came up but stopped responding. I opened
the -- start menu? I guess that's "kicker" -- and typed "q", thinking to open
qutebrowser. It froze. I couldn't even pull up a tty (ctrl-alt-f3). I had to
power cycle the machine manually. The mouse worked, but the OS stopped
responding.
I changed the `false` to `true` in the fontconfig via boot to tty and _then_
logged in, and everything worked again.
