This sounds like an issue between Qt and your hardware, I'm not able to reproduce this and also nobody else seems to experience this as I read about this problem for the first time. Was this working for you before? Let's say with Plasma 5.6 or Plasma 5.5? Or is it happening in any other configuration, e.g. when configuring a wireless connection and filling WEP/WPA password? Also, thanks to you I noticed that after importing OpenVPN connection we set that we should ask for the password everytime, instead of defaulting to storing it into KWallet. I fixed this already and it should kinda workaround your problem, because you don't have to switch from "Always ask" to "Store the password for this user", but still would be nice to figure out what's going on. Thanks for the update. This is a brand new problem for me, just started in 5.8.1 never had issues in 5.7. I'll look around to see what kind of debug logging I can do/find with QT stuff and hopefully I'll uncover something. I'll update whether or not I find something by the end of the week. If it started with Plasma 5.8.1 then probably something else was updated as well, because the code for the password field was not touched since 5.6 (aprox.). Honestly, I have no clue...I updated my system and now it doesn't freeze as before. I have the application menu mapped to the meta key, so when I go to add the password my mouse still works now, but I can't click anything, but when I hit the meta key and the application menu opens it closes the password menu and my system functions again. For now, at least you changed the method to save passwords, and that works just fine. Perhaps one day I will figure out the issue. Thanks for your time! |
