hey, i can confirm the sudden freeze. (nearly complete death, no input possible, ie alt+tab not working, BUT mouse pointer is still working so I can move it around) here are my org.kde.KWin.supportInformation https://paste.kde.org/pkdcfnrrh i'm using intel haswell graphics (i915 driver) mesa is at version: 10.5.2 xf86-video-intel is at version: 2.99.917 x.org-x-server is at version: 1.17.1 as of now, i'm running plasma 5.2.95 on opensuse tumbleweed. the freezes started to happen after the upgrade from 5.2.1 to the 5.3-beta
some additional information (I really hope they are helpful): - i switched from breeze (used before without problems) to oxygen, still getting freezes - starting plasma with compositing enabled is impossible -> the splashscreen hangs (i've waited 5 minutes, nothing happens) - starting plasma with compositing disabled works as expected, ie plasma starts, but freezes start to happen shortly after this. - the trick with export KWIN_USE_BUFFER_AGE=0; kwin --replace & doesn't seem to help. - enabling compositing in the systemsettings causes the freeze, as well as sometimes "playing around" in the settings (changing from xrender to opengl, or switching between glx and egl) - killing plamashell and working with "just" an empty desktop and kwin seems to work better, though alt+f2 (to bring up krunner) is not working (this is odd, because alt+tab works); freezes don't happen that often, even less when using xrender. but they still happen occasionally. => in this situation the input kind of works: i can switch tabs by clicking with the mouse in firefox. and I can write in firefox (ie an url in the address-bar), if i try to use --replace with either kwin or xfwm, this is not working. kwin needs to be killed and then restarted. - using kwin in xfce (via kwin_x11 --replace) works. enabling compositing in the systemsettings freezes some parts of the desktop. the panel is disappearing, but "comes back" by hovering it with the mouse pointer and it disappears again. ps: i'm going to install the debug-headers to give more information. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1440210 Title: KWin crashes multiple times a day and often has to be restarted manually.
