Bug ID: 477527
Summary: Trying to launch KDE Wayland crashes with "cannot open
display: "
Classification: Plasma
Product: kwin
Version: 5.27.9
Platform: Arch Linux
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: crash
Priority: NOR
Component: wayland-generic
Assignee: kwin-bugs-n...@kde.org
Reporter: gamer633...@gmail.com
Target Milestone: ---
Created attachment 163477
--> https://bugs.kde.org/attachment.cgi?id=163477&action=edit
Output of all logs, and the bash script used to generate them
SUMMARY
Trying to run KDE Plasma's Wayland version fails, whether by console or by
running via LightDM
***
NOTE: If you are reporting a crash, please try to attach a backtrace with debug
symbols.
See
https://community.kde.org/Guidelines_and_HOWTOs/Debugging/How_to_create_useful_crash_reports
***
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. In a terminal, run `startplasma-wayland`, or `dbus-run-session
startplasma-wayland`, or login to LightDM with "Plasma (Wayland)" selected as
DE. I've not tried with other login managers.
OBSERVED RESULT
KDE simply doesn't launch, and produces a crash log. I've attached it below -
startplasma-wayland[-dbus].log files. I've also attached log files for my
hardware, package versions, and the script used to generate these logs.
EXPECTED RESULT
KDE launches.
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Windows:
macOS:
Linux/KDE Plasma: Arch 6.6.2-arch1-1
(available in About System)
KDE Plasma Version: 5.27.9-1
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.27.9-1
Qt Version: qt6-base 6.6.0-3
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Running these commands from inside another Wayland compositor seems to - very
rarely - start showing KDE's splash screen, though I didn't see it get further
than that.
This is also me very belatedly (sorry!) writing a new bug report as requested
in https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=440397
