Description ijpo5610 2016-08-29 16:18:36 UTC

Hi, i've got a problem with my desktop, impossible to move/reduce/close windows (no arrow). Impossible to write in the terminal (i can write in a browser, copy and paste in the terminal).
Kick of menu is not working every time KDE is out, classical is OK), the icon to make appears the desktop is dead, as the shortcuts, i've to close every window to try something else...
I think that is a problem with KDE. Yesterday same problem, i solve it with the terminal, i enter xfwm4, but it's not possible today.
How can i fix KDE? 
Without terminal, and i try by the menu (installing programs) but it's difficult to progress in this situation..
If it's easier to pass from KDE to an other environment, it's not a problem, i just need some advise...
Excuse my language, i try to be clear, i'm sure that this problem is known, i find a lot of thing on the net, but it's difficult for me, thanks

Reproducible: Always




Linux 3.16.0-38-generic

Hi, i change the windows manager, from KWin to Metacity
I recover my windows! The definition is less cut than before, it's always impossible to reduce all the windows, the button to show the desktop is dead (always...)
But i can write in a terminal!
If you have some advices, to fix it definitively, i'a your man!
I think that a great cleaning would be a good idea...
Thanks

> If you have some advices

Sorry, this is a bug tracker, not a help forum. Please ask for help in a forum of your distribution. If you are sure the problem is specific to KDE software, you can also use the KDE forums at https://forum.kde.org/

Hi, ok. It's was difficult to find something on the net, so i landed here.
I'm not sure for KDE, but i changed the windows manager, and it's better.
Thank you, have a good night
