Just remembered something that may be important. My monitor broke down (don't ask) and I had to connect a new one (same resolution though). Then I got the KCrash dialog in the new monitor. Hope that helps. The backtrace paints a somewhat clear picture: KWin tried to position windows on the screen that no longer exists, queried its properties, and crashed. Can this bug make kwin_x11 die? Since a couple of weeks ago (I upgraded Plasma 5.26.0 + Frameworks 5.99.0 + Gears 22.08.2 at the same time, so I can't pinpoint the reason) I'm having constant kwin crashes and I have to start it manually, either via konsole/yakuake o krunner. I had no luck triyng to reproduce it o debug it, nothing relevant in dmesg, /var/log/messages or ~/.local/share/sddm/xorg-session.log. Yesterday I had like 10 crashes in five hours, I got fed up and rebooted and still haven't experienced any crash so far. My system is a notebook to which I connect an external monitor (HDMI TV actually) when working from home, bu I also experienced crashes when at the office with no external monitor/TV attached. Also, I don't usually reboot my notebook but use suspend/resume. Thanks. Operating System: Slackware64 -current KDE Plasma Version: 5.26.2 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.99.0 Qt Version: 5.15.6 Kernel Version: 5.19.17 (64-bit) Graphics Platform: X11 Processors: 8 × Intel® Core™ i5-1035G1 CPU @ 1.00GHz Memory: 15.2 GiB of RAM Graphics Processor: Mesa Intel® UHD Graphics Manufacturer: LENOVO Product Name: 81YK System Version: IdeaPad 5 15IIL05 Oh, and I never got a Dr Konqui crash report about these crashes. And a couple of times I also had to restart plasmashhel because it hanged after starting kwin_x11. The only thing I notice is that the crashes seems to happen when I receive a notification, but it might be just bad timming because while working I usually receive lots of them (from mattermost in a browser tab mostly, and also from kmail). This crash is consistent for me now. The way to reproduce is: -Start Plasma session (login) -Remove old monitor -Attach new monitor (same resolution - don't know what happens if you reconnect the old monitor. Hm?) -kwin seems working -try to change virtual desktops - kwin crashes and the report-bug is popped up. > -try to change virtual desktops - kwin crashes and the report-bug is popped up.
Is overview/present windows/desktop grid active when you change virtual desktop?

Do you mean the thumbnails of virtual desktops selector? (sorry I don't know the proper name). In that case yes - I would say. It is always shown when I change virtual desktops. So it should be shown also when the bug is triggered (after monitor change). Now I can't remember if it is actually shown or crashes trying to show it and I am not at work so I cannot reproduce it. However in a recent update kwin started to restart itself after the crash and the mitigates the severity of this error. > Do you mean the thumbnails of virtual desktops selector? (sorry I don't know the proper name).
Can you attach the screenshot of that effect?
---
I can't reproduce the crash, kwin doesn't crash if I remove and reconnect an output while the overview effect is active and switch between virtual desktops.
As is, I'm confused by KWin::DesktopBackgroundItem::updateWindow() call.
(In reply to Vlad Zahorodnii from comment #8) > Can you attach the screenshot of that effect? I don't think so. It is transient during virtual desktop switching. I would need probably to record it in video. > I can't reproduce the crash, kwin doesn't crash if I remove and reconnect an > output while the overview effect is active and switch between virtual > desktops. Ok I have 2 different monitors with the same resolution. When I came in the morning sometimes I have to switch the monitors (for some non related reason). When I get back in my chair everything is normal. When I try to switch to another virtual screen I get the crash.
