Please attach ~/.kde/share/config/auroraerc As workaround, change to the oxygen decoration, either by GUI or kwriteconfig --file kwinrc --group Style --key PluginLib kwin3_oxygen Thank you very much, that has fixed the problem for me 2013/4/26 Thomas Lübking <thomas.luebking@gmail.com> > https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=318941 > > Thomas Lübking <thomas.luebking@gmail.com> changed: > > What |Removed |Added > > ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- > Component|general |aurorae > > --- Comment #1 from Thomas Lübking <thomas.luebking@gmail.com> --- > Please attach > ~/.kde/share/config/auroraerc > > As workaround, change to the oxygen decoration, either by GUI or > kwriteconfig --file kwinrc --group Style --key PluginLib kwin3_oxygen > > -- > You are receiving this mail because: > You reported the bug. Good to hear. Unfortunately it's not possible to add attachments via mail - you have to use the bugtracker webservice (you're mailing to the tracker, therefore it's also not required to quote - everything here is achieved =) Sorry, I forgot to attach the file requested before I made the changes. After I applied the command that you sent me, I changed to tenuto-light. Now the content of the file is: [Engine] EngineType[$d] ThemeName=Tenuto-Light (In reply to comment #4) > Now the content of the file is: m( =) Ok, that's no longer interesting. The "Tenuto" deco works, i assume? Do you happen to know which decoration you used before switching to oxygen? (with the command from comment #1) - ie. "What was the crashing decoration configuration"? *** Bug 319140 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** reply to post here https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=319140 Martin Gräßlin 2013-05-01 07:18:19 UTC please see duplicate bug report for workaround. Please also add to that report which window decoration you were using, thanks. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 318941 *** my response, sorry if there is a better way to do this, kinda new to this bug reporting stuff. I honestly can't remember exactly what window decorator I was using, I think oxygen-air or something like that, after going into systemsettings and changing the decoration to anything actually in the list kwin worked, I had upgraded my ubuntu from 12.10 to 13.04 and this was the first time I ran kde, beast guess ubuntu removed or renamed the decoration I was using and kwin doesn't have any fallback, probably a good idea to make it fall back to maybe a built in theme when a problem like this happens, so at least the system is usable. on a side note, my other computer had no problems with the upgrade, but it was using the default oxygen window decorator, and I changed the one on this computer to one that was more transparent. I think that explains it. Do you have the package "kdeartwork-theme-window" installed? In Quantal (KDE SC 4.9) that contained oxygen-air and oxygen which got removed in raring (KDE SC 4.10). So I think what we're facing here is the case that the configured theme got deleted. Unfortunately I don't remember the decoration I used before (In reply to comment #8) > I think that explains it.

I don't have the package "kdeartwork-theme-window" installed now after update to raring. I don't know whether if was installed before. Doesn't really matter - fact is that there's some uncacthed nullptr accesses and the most likely case to get there is to "silently" remove a decoration, what's apparently the case in John McClane's case and -since you're on the very same distro- will be on yours as well (impossible to figure if you cannot recall what deco was in use) I've patch & tested, but reviewboard is somehow lagging atm.

However: in my case, the missing window decoration was "air-oxygen" (vice versa of the mentioned "oxygen-air". And, additionally, it was not contained in the mentioned package "kdeartwork-theme-window" (which was installed already). I changed to decoration "air" in system settings -> desktop -> appearence -> decorations. (? correct translation from my german description, here?) and also tested kwin to work with "air-oxygen" by dowhnloading that (button "download new decoration" at the same place in system settings). Thanks for Your work! *** Bug 320631 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** |
