[kwin] [Bug 483137] Screencast plugin fails if PipeWire is started after KWin
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=483137 --- Comment #7 from Chris Pfuhl --- i'm running the same patch according to diff (just with slightly different "index ..." lines which hopefully aren't that relevant to applying) For what it's worth what also worked for me without a patch at least for gentoo was to login as your user account in a shell and run "dbus-run-session gentoo-pipewire-launcher" and then start your display manager and login with the same user. not very pretty but i guess this should also work for other distributions with the correct pipewire launch command. i also wanted to try putting a pipewire launch script in ~/.config/plasma-workspace/env but i'm not very hopeful that this runs early enough. In the meantime i also found a somewhat experimental and pretty complex looking guide in the gentoo wiki to run user services with openrc: https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/OpenRC/User_services maybe at some point i'll get around to trying this. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

Since updating to Plasma 6.0.0 i had the same behavior, the display selection menu came up but when pressed any combination received "Failed to connect PipeWire context". With the attached patch built into the package "kde-plasma/kwin-6.0.1-r2" from the main gentoo tree screensharing seems to work flawlessly so far after a restart of the display server. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
