Bug ID: 455175
Summary: With systemd startup, kaccess is not autostarted
Product: systemsettings
Version: 5.24.90
Platform: Archlinux Packages
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: kcm_accessibility
Assignee: gun...@schmi-dt.de
Reporter: kishor...@gmail.com
CC: plasma-b...@kde.org
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
When systemd startup is enabled (default from Plasma 5.24.90), kaccess is not
started on login. This means that accessibility features such as sticky keys do
not work.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Enable systemd startup (if you are not already using it, do `kwriteconfig5
--file startkderc --group General --key systemdBoot true` in a terminal and
reboot)
2. Reboot and log in
3. Run `ps -aux | grep kaccess`
OBSERVED RESULTS
```
[kishore@kishorearchtestingVM ~]$ ps -aux | grep kaccess
kishore 970 0.0 0.1 6684 2540 pts/2 S+ 11:32 0:00 grep kaccess
```
/usr/bin/kaccess is not running!
EXPECTED RESULTS
```
[kishore@kishorearchtestingVM ~]$ ps -aux | grep kaccess
kishore 946 3.6 3.1 284616 46164 pts/1 Sl+ 11:31 0:00
/usr/bin/kaccess
kishore 959 0.0 0.1 6684 2496 pts/2 S+ 11:32 0:00 grep kaccess
```
Kaccess should be running (above, I have manually run it in a terminal after
logging in)
