This is happening for me too. Running Debian Sid on a recently installed Dell Latitude 5420 but with the data - and hence config files - copied from an older install. If I run kdeconnect I get to a blank Devices page and clicking on the find devices icon on the panel results in "qrc:/qt/qml/org/kde/kdeconnect/app/FindDevicesPage.qml:13:1: QML FindDevicesPage: Created graphical object was not placed in the graphics scene." being logged in the journald log. The file .config/kdeconnect/config contains only [General] name=cuthbert I renamed the kdeconnect config directory, removed and reinstalled but that doesn't seem to have regenerated a config directory though the hostname is still present on the settings page. Anything else I can try? KDE Connect: 24.08.3 Debian GNU/Linux trixie/sid (Wayland) KDE Frameworks: 6.8.0 Qt: Using 6.7.2 and built against 6.7.2 Build ABI: x86_64-little_endian-lp64 Kernel: linux 6.12.3-amd64 I note in the system log that there is an earlier failure to send an mdns query, as "cannot assign requested address" - possibly an interaction with avahi occupying the mdns port. No surprise that I'm not identifying any devices then, but it's not clear that the later failure to place a created graphical object is related. To update, it appears that a system update at some point gifted me a firewall which blocked kdeconnect and mdns. Adding rules to allow connections on the relevant ports has solved the issue for me. I don't know if the original reporter has fixed his issues but I think this could be closed. (In reply to contact from comment #0) > SUMMARY > Find new devices button is inoperable right now.

This is an unrelated warning. I have that on my laptop where KDE Connect does see my other devices. ๐๐งน โ ๏ธ This bug has been in NEEDSINFO status with no change for at least 15 days. Please provide the requested information, then set the bug status to REPORTED. If there is no change for at least 30 days, it will be automatically closed as RESOLVED WORKSFORME. For more information about our bug triaging procedures, please read https://community.kde.org/Guidelines_and_HOWTOs/Bug_triaging. Thank you for helping us make KDE software even better for everyone! I'm not the original reporter, but I solved my problem with firewall rules to allow mdns etc. I think it could be closed.

Thanks for confirming. contact@betalars.de, are you still having problems with this? I can't seem to find the "find devices" button right now but I can find an unpaired device. So I think this can be closed. |
