Maybe plasma-plasmashell.service just needs to depend on plasma-kactivitymanagerd.service? I just tried to add the following via `systemctl --user edit plasma-plasmashell.service`: [Unit] After=plasma-kactivitymanagerd.service Will see if it helps during the next reboot(s). -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
