Is this still relevant for the new System Monitor applet? Yes, I am still able to reproduce this bug in kde neon unstable with the new System Monitor applet. I just recorded a video showing how to reproduce it, I just have to make a little edit to sucure some of my info (like number of digits in my password). I will try to upload it in some hours. video link: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1FSLMenhm7PmrZv739a2e7PO4cvodDdFr/view?usp=sharing time stamps: 00:00 |---- 00:50 showing the computer functioning normally 00:50 |---- 01:30 adding the widgets 01:30 |---- 01:50 configuring the system monitor widgets 01:50 |---- 02:17 showing that the computer is still functioning normally 02:17 |---- 02:34 rebooting 02:34 |---- 03:20 showing that the computer is frozen 03:20 |---- 04:13 running "plasmashell --replace" 04:13 |---- 04:40 rebooting again 04:40 |---- 05:12 showing that even after rebooting the computer is still frozen 05:12 |---- 05:36 trying to open krunner and giving up 05:36 |---- 06:02 rebooting (and krunner decides to appear) 06:02 |---- 06:15 removing the power cable (for some reason if I remove it the computer takes longer to freeze. So I am able to remove the widget before it freezes.) 06:15 |---- 06:20 trying to remove the widget and failing (wasn't fast enough) 06:20 |---- 07:18 this time it froze so hard I had to hard reset 07:18 |---- 07:32 trying to remove the widget and failing againg 07:32 |---- 08:01 finally beeing able to remove the widget and everything is back to normal Dear Bug Submitter, This bug has been in NEEDSINFO status with no change for at least 15 days. Please provide the requested information as soon as possible and set the bug status as REPORTED. Due to regular bug tracker maintenance, if the bug is still in NEEDSINFO status with no change in 30 days the bug will be closed as RESOLVED > WORKSFORME due to lack of needed information. For more information about our bug triaging procedures please read the wiki located here: https://community.kde.org/Guidelines_and_HOWTOs/Bug_triaging If you have already provided the requested information, please mark the bug as REPORTED so that the KDE team knows that the bug is ready to be confirmed. Thank you for helping us make KDE software even better for everyone! changing status to reported Hi. This is my first report, so I'm not quite sure if I should post my comment as a comment in this bug report or open a new one; but as it has to do with the add-on mentioned, I think so. Sorry if I'm not right. Well, I too confirm that grouping plasmoid is malfunctioning, in my case, with desktop notes. If you put the grouping plasmoid on the desktop and put into it a desktop note widget, nothing happens, but if you put a second one, then when you restart the desktop or just Plasmashell, the entire desktop freezes and the usage of one of the processor cores goes up to 100%, only the mouse and the keyboard respond. Restarting Plasma doesn't help because Plasma freezes almost immediately after login so you can do nothing on the desktop. The only solution is to kill Plasmashell from a terminal and delete the entries related to grouping plasmoid in the plasma-org.kde.plasma.desktop-appletsrc file. Translated with www.DeepL.com/Translator (free version) Plasma 5.21.4 KDE Frameworks 5.81.0 Qt 5.15.2 Thanks for reporting this. I'm sorry we hadn't been able to address the bug yet. Is this still an issue with Plasma 6.3.3 or later? The System Load Viewer widget is no longer shipped with Plasma. If you still see an issue, it's likely with the Grouping widget, that is about to have a fix for an unrelated issue merged. If you do still see a bug with it, please set this report back to REPORTED. Thanks. (In reply to TraceyC from comment #7) > If you still see an issue, it's likely with the Grouping widget, that is > about to have a fix for an unrelated issue merged. If you do still see a bug > with it, please set this report back to REPORTED. Thanks. Hi, I am not able to reproduce accurately the issue anymore because I changed my notebook. It was an old 4 core Intel-I5 machine and now I have a (still old) 8-core AMD Ryzen 5. So I cannot say if this bug might still affect older systems. I also changed distros from Manjaro to Endeavor. But what I can say is that I am not able to reproduce this bug in my current notebook. I tried with some combinations of system monitoring widgets and sticky note widgets. None of the combinations gave me any freeze that I could attribute to the grouping plasmoid widget. That is note to say that there was note a small freeze when starting the desktop, but this is normal even without the grouping plasmoid widget. So, for now, I think this issue is FIXED. Even though I can't say when it was fixed.
