4. Open System Monitor

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Linux/KDE Plasma: 6.1.0-rpi7-rpi-2712 (64-bit)
(available in About System)
KDE Plasma Version: 5.27.5
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.103.0

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Currently unable to determine if this works under x11 session as I'm unable to get one running. Will update if I can.

Comment 1 Robin Bankhead 2024-03-24 14:12:18 UTC

To confirm, the issue is not Wayland-specific and occurs also in plasma-x11 session.

Comment 2 Arjen Hiemstra 2025-09-24 15:17:18 UTC

Does this still happen with a recent version?

Comment 3 Robin Bankhead 2025-09-24 20:15:05 UTC

As Raspberry Pi OS has not yet released its Debian 13 (KDE6) version yet I will need to find a different Pi-supporting OS to test with. Will try to address that this weekend if possible.

This most likely has the same source as 506866 with ksystemstats not properly launching. Marking as a duplicate of that.

Rad how this bug gets to be the duplicate of the one that was opened nearly a year and a half later yet got responded to before this one even did but go off I guess <shrugs>
