I can't right click on it. Wallpaper is not shown. latte-dock crashes sometimes. but everything else seems to works. I can start konsole, Firefox ..etc from krunner. I have to restart plasmashell with command `killall plasmashell && plasmashell`. Sometimes nothing opens up and I have to open laptop lid to be able to open konsole and restart plasmashell STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. connect external display to laptop 2. press power button and close the laptop lid 3. on bootup, start the plasma x11 session OBSERVED RESULT greeted with black wallpaper and cant right click or draw selection rectangle on desktop EXPECTED RESULT greeted with wallpaper, can right click and draw selection rectangle on desktop.
