Logs during the kwin crash (containing stack trace)

When I choose the plasma-wayland session in sddm and log in, the session crashes and I am brought back to the sddm screen. Output of journalctl -f shows that kwon_wayland crashes. I have attached the logs as a text file. This is in a virtualbox VM with 3D acceleration disabled.

We need the backtrace. Without we don't know where it crashes. Unfortunately you are using Arch which means there are no backtraces with debug symbols available.

Kwin stopped crashing after an update. Should this be marked as 'fixed'?
Comment 3 Martin Flöser 2016-12-24 12:01:30 UTC
was probably a distro integration issue.
