Re: Window decoration doesn't work in testing

[newbeewan]

Hi Thom,

Thanks a lot, kwin was uninstalled by the dist-upgrade, I don't know why (perhaps it was 
not available in testing at this moment)...


Reinstalling it fixed all my issues :)

Best regards,

Mourad

Hi Mourad,

Does manually restarting kwin resolve the issue (execute `kwin
--replace` in Konsole or KRunner)? If not, does running that command
in Konsole show errors?

You may also want to check if you fully upgraded everything. Does `apt
upgrade` mention packages that were held back?

Hope that helps,
Thom

Hi
I'm on Debian Stretch but I'm not experiencing the issues you're discussing
here. However I remember to have had similar issues with Plasma 5 and Intel
drivers. As a workaround I used this /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/20-intel.conf:


Section "Device"
Identifier  "Intel Graphics"
Driver  "intel"
Option  "AccelMethod"  "sna"
Option  "TearFree""true"
Option  "DRI""3"
EndSection

Given also the previous messages about this topic, enabling DRI3 indeed seems
to solve the problem. Anyhow, I discovered that the problem was with the i8xx
i9xx display driver, provided by the automatically installed
xserver-xorg-video-intel package, which could be not required by new hardware
as reported in the description:


This package provides the driver for the Intel i8xx and i9xx family of
chipsets [...] The use of this driver is discouraged if your hw is new
enough (ca. 2007 and newer). You can try uninstalling this driver and let
the server use it's builtin modesetting driver instead.

I tried to uninstall this package as suggested and the problem was solved:


sudo rm /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/20-intel.conf
sudo apt purge xserver-xorg-video-intel && sudo reboot

Ciao
Francesco

I had previously posted: When I start a new session (old session still
running), the older session's plasmashell CPU is way up, sometimes bogging 
the
system! If I unlock the old session's desktop, that problem subsides, though
its plasmashell can still sometimes eat a lot of CPU, but not crippling.

Hi,

I have the same behavior, since plasma 5 is using pulseaudio, the management of the volume 
became crazy...


Sometime without any reasons, volume is going up to 100%... but most of the 
time is it :
- When system sound is played (regression of that bug : 
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=324975)

- When session start,
- When restoring session from standby mode...

I think plasma 5 is insane to move the volume to 100% !

This is dangerous if you are using earphone and socially difficult to accept when you work 
in an open space...


I can't find any reason to legitimate the creation of this kind of behavior so, I suspect 
some side effects...

Filename encoding problems with fish/dolphin

[newbeewan]

Hi,

I have some trouble with fish and dolphin.

When I'm trying to save some file with "special" characters like àéèç, the name of my file 
is changed with some iso code but automatically translated in dolphin... It's weird !


For exemple :
"Introduction à Spring.odp" become "Introduction \#340 Spring.odp" and Dolphin show a 
duplicate file but it cannot do anything with it ("file not found" if I try to remove it)


Is there anybody who know if it is possible to correct that behaviour ?

Why changing the volume when restoring the session ?

[newbeewan]

Hi,

I have a question of a useless behaviour.

Everytime I restore my plasma5 session from standby mode the sound volume is 
put to 100% !

Is it possible to disable that foolish feature ?

It seem to be a regression of that bug :

To add some precision, as far I can see, my bluetooth adapter is correctly

I reset all pairing informations by removing all devices and redo the pairing procedure

The only constraint, all devices must be on the same local network (same wifi and it works

The pairing is a little bit "magic" (sometime nothing happen), I don't know really how it

And for android you can find it here :
