Description mludvig 2015-12-03 04:06:19 UTC

When I unplug my external monitor Konsole crashes, killing all the sessions.

Happens almost always with konsole from openSUSE Leap 42.1 as well as the one from openSUSE KDE:Frameworks5 repo - konsole-15.08.3-3.1.x86_64

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Plug in external monitor
2. Open Konsole
3. Unplug external monitor

Actual Results:  
Konsole window is gone

Expected Results:  
Konsole window not gone :)

Doesn't happen to any other open windows, like Firefox, Chrome, etc. Only to Konsole.

I can confirm the same issue. also on opensuse Leap 42.1 and packages from KDE:Frameworks5.
Framework version is 5.17 and plasma is 5.5.2

I also noted that a running program in one of the konsole session (weechat irc client) is still running after konsole "crash".

also reported for opensuse : https://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=957060

Comment 3 Raphael Wimmer 2016-07-11 14:46:09 UTC

Same problem on Debian testing:

Qt: 5.5.1
KDE Frameworks: 5.16.0
Konsole: 16.04.1

Strangely, the hiding windows suddenly reappeared one time when I changed display mirroring settings (using xrandr). I could not reproduce this, however.

Can you submit a stacktrace? If it crashes, drkonqi should pop up and show you one.
