I now generated a backtrace for getting the debug message: kcmshell5(30793)/(kscreen) KScreen::BackendManager::startBackend: starting external backend launcher for "" At this point, I have (added an assert in "/opt/kde/src/kde/workspace/libkscreen/src/backendmanager.cpp", line=291): #5 0x00007fffda2f3bc6 in KScreen::BackendManager::startBackend(QString const&, QMap<QString, QVariant> const&) (this=0x6af270, backend=..., arguments=...) at /opt/kde/src/kde/workspace/libkscreen/src/backendmanager.cpp:291 #6 0x00007fffda2f3aca in KScreen::BackendManager::requestBackend() (this=0x6af270) at /opt/kde/src/kde/workspace/libkscreen/src/backendmanager.cpp:276 #7 0x00007fffda2fe5cb in KScreen::ConfigOperationPrivate::requestBackend() (this=0x9265f0) at /opt/kde/src/kde/workspace/libkscreen/src/configoperation.cpp:45 #8 0x00007fffda30019e in KScreen::GetConfigOperation::start() (this=0x92bfd0) at /opt/kde/src/kde/workspace/libkscreen/src/getconfigoperation.cpp:178 #9 0x00007fffda315dcd in KScreen::ConfigOperation::qt_static_metacall(QObject*, QMetaObject::Call, int, void**) (_o=0x92bfd0, _c=QMetaObject::InvokeMetaMethod, _id=1, _a=0x92bd10) at /opt/kde/build/kde/workspace/libkscreen/src/moc_configoperation.cpp:81 #10 0x00007ffff4d8ad07 in QMetaCallEvent::placeMetaCall(QObject*) (this=0x93afb0, object=0x92bfd0) at kernel/qobject.cpp:495 #11 0x00007ffff4d8bda0 in QObject::event(QEvent*) (this=0x92bfd0, e=0x93afb0) at kernel/qobject.cpp:1256 #12 0x00007ffff594a4f2 in QApplicationPrivate::notify_helper(QObject*, QEvent*) (this=0x61a250, receiver=0x92bfd0, e=0x93afb0) at kernel/qapplication.cpp:3804 #13 0x00007ffff59478bd in QApplication::notify(QObject*, QEvent*) (this=0x7fffffffd1f0, receiver=0x92bfd0, e=0x93afb0) at kernel/qapplication.cpp:3163 #14 0x00007ffff4d51bfa in QCoreApplication::notifyInternal2(QObject*, QEvent*) (receiver=0x92bfd0, event=0x93afb0) at kernel/qcoreapplication.cpp:1015 #15 0x00007ffff4d55c30 in QCoreApplication::sendEvent(QObject*, QEvent*) (receiver=0x92bfd0, event=0x93afb0) at ../../include/QtCore/../../src/corelib/kernel/qcoreapplication.h:225 #16 0x00007ffff4d52fe2 in QCoreApplicationPrivate::sendPostedEvents(QObject*, int, QThreadData*) (receiver=0x0, event_type=0, data=0x6190d0) at kernel/qcoreapplication.cpp:1650 #17 0x00007ffff4d52962 in QCoreApplication::sendPostedEvents(QObject*, int) (receiver=0x0, event_type=0) at kernel/qcoreapplication.cpp:1508 #18 0x00007ffff4dcbb2c in postEventSourceDispatch(GSource*, GSourceFunc, gpointer) (s=0x672fb0) at kernel/qeventdispatcher_glib.cpp:270 #19 0x00007fffed56a1a7 in g_main_context_dispatch (context=0x7fffdc0016f0) at /build/glib2.0-wnDt2X/glib2.0-2.48.1/./glib/gmain.c:3154 #20 0x00007fffed56a1a7 in g_main_context_dispatch (context=context@entry=0x7fffdc0016f0) at /build/glib2.0-wnDt2X/glib2.0-2.48.1/./glib/gmain.c:3769 #21 0x00007fffed56a400 in g_main_context_iterate (context=context@entry=0x7fffdc0016f0, block=block@entry=1, dispatch=dispatch@entry=1, self=<optimized out>) at /build/glib2.0-wnDt2X/glib2.0-2.48.1/./glib/gmain.c:3840 ---Type <return> to continue, or q <return> to quit--- #22 0x00007fffed56a4ac in g_main_context_iteration (context=0x7fffdc0016f0, may_block=1) at /build/glib2.0-wnDt2X/glib2.0-2.48.1/./glib/gmain.c:3901 #23 0x00007ffff4dcc305 in QEventDispatcherGlib::processEvents(QFlags<QEventLoop::ProcessEventsFlag>) (this=0x67ceb0, flags=...) at kernel/qeventdispatcher_glib.cpp:417 #24 0x00007fffe78cce86 in QPAEventDispatcherGlib::processEvents(QFlags<QEventLoop::ProcessEventsFlag>) (this=0x67ceb0, flags=...) at eventdispatchers/qeventdispatcher_glib.cpp:115 #25 0x00007ffff4d4e570 in QEventLoop::processEvents(QFlags<QEventLoop::ProcessEventsFlag>) (this=0x7fffffffd050, flags=...) at kernel/qeventloop.cpp:128 #26 0x00007ffff4d4e86c in QEventLoop::exec(QFlags<QEventLoop::ProcessEventsFlag>) (this=0x7fffffffd050, flags=...) at kernel/qeventloop.cpp:204 #27 0x00007ffff4d52344 in QCoreApplication::exec() () at kernel/qcoreapplication.cpp:1285 #28 0x00007ffff517d598 in QGuiApplication::exec() () at kernel/qguiapplication.cpp:1607 #29 0x00007ffff59472a1 in QApplication::exec() () at kernel/qapplication.cpp:2979 #30 0x00007ffff7bd4210 in kdemain(int, char**) (_argc=2, _argv=0x7fffffffdb18) at /opt/kde/src/kde/workspace/kde-cli-tools/kcmshell/main.cpp:294 #31 0x00000000004009a8 in main(int, char**) (argc=2, argv=0x7fffffffdb18) at /opt/kde/build/kde/workspace/kde-cli-tools/kcmshell/kcmshell5_dummy.cpp:3 -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
