SUMMARY
Plasma will crash when trying to edit panels on x.

I will try to add a backtrace later, but due to my whole desktop freezing when it happens, it poses kind of a challenge to me

There were a lot of crashes, but this one has been the most reproducible one:

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Enter panel edit mode
2. Edit a widget (I did it with system monitor)
3. Close the menu and move the widget

OBSERVED RESULT
My desktop crashes

EXPECTED RESULT
n/a

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Hm ... I apparently use wayland in my system right now, but I switched it manually to X.
I cannot reproduce the issue right now, so maybe it does not occur with wayland.
I don't know when that switch back occurred.

Can you remember which system monitor style were you using? (Bar chart, applications table, line graph..?)

Sorry I am having a lot of issues with different project on my new laptop right now. Will get back to this, but it will take a bit of time. Sorry.
