What is "animated hue"? A 3rd-party wallpaper plugin? Created attachment 150596 [details]
animated hue - background
I am not aware that this the third party plugin. It always comes with KDE / Plasma.
That's a 3rd-party plugin, yeah. I guess your distro ships it by default, or you installed it a long time ago and forgot about it. Does it work when used as a desktop wallpaper? I see. Yes, it works for the wallpaper. Ok, so the plugin isn't completely broken. Can you set it as your lock screen background and then run the screen locker in testing mode? First open a Terminal window and run `find /usr -name kscreenlocker_greet` to find the full path to kscreenlocker_greet (it differs by system). Once you've found it, run it with the `--testing` argument. Then paste the terminal output into here as a new comment. Thanks!

As I suspected, this is an error in the 3rd-party wallpaper plugin. That path no longer exists because Safe Landing was moved to being the default wallpaper in Plasma 5.25, so now it lives at: /usr/share/wallpapers/Next/contents/images/5120x2880.jpg In Plasma 5.26, it will go back to living at /usr/share/wallpapers/SafeLanding/contents/images/5120x2880.jpg Since clearly this path is volatile, it's not appropriate to use as as hardcoded value. I would recommend that you report the issue to the developer at https://github.com/Zren/plasma-wallpapers/issues Thank you for your patience and help! I am going to report it. You're welcome! |
