 |
|
I have long had my system set to restore a manually saved session at startup.
With the upgrade to Plasma 6.1.4, this doesn't work. Shutdown and logout exit PlasmaShell and then it just hangs. All application windows remain. I have tried closing all the windows but this has no effect. What does work is to kill plasma-fallback-session-save. Shutdown/logout proceeds normally from there, though presumably skipping whatever plasma-fallback-session-save was doing.
I tried switching to "restore apps on last logout". That seemed to work once. But then I switched back to "When session was manually saved". It hung on plasma-fallback-session-save. On the next boot, I tried switching to "restore apps on last logout" and logging out. This time logout and shutdown did nothing. No plasma-fallback-session-save either. Switching again to "When session was manually saved" gave me the usual hung plasma-fallback-session-save.
Throughout all this, "switch user" works fine.
Any idea how to restore logout/shutdown function? |

| Please also try with a clean testuser profile. This has helped in the Gentoo bug. |

Yes, it is X11 session handling. How do I apply this patch? I'm not up on portage internals. I created a patch file in the right place but portage complains that my patch is not in the Manifest. I found *that* file but I don't what the line referencing the patch should look like. The manifest lines existing patches have a lot of extra data. I don't know what it is or where it comes from. |

You need to recreate the Manifest
run
ebuild name-of-ebuild.ebuild manifest |

| You should put the patch in /etc/portage/patches for testing. |

I did that and re-emerged plasma-workspace. No change in behavior, even after a reboot. A clean test user does work properly, even running the same apps as the failing user. |

| I have further found that if I switch first to "empty session" with a logout in between, I can switch from "last saved" to a working "on last logout". Switching from "last saved" to "last logout" causes the usual hang and the resulting "last logout" session also hangs at logout. |

| Correction. A clean test user does not work. It only works for "last logout" and "empty session". "last saved" still hangs. |

Thanks. It would be best to convey these findings to upstream, it really does not make sense for me to relay all user reports.
The next best thing would be to do as https://bugs.gentoo.org/938925#c1 which is not a fix, but a workaround (and yet another confirmation this was a problematic fix). |
