https://forum.ubuntuusers.de/topic/sddm-maustasten-und-tastatur-ploetzlich-ohne-f/#preview After a Kubuntu15.04 crash mouse-switches and keyboard stop operation about 5min. after login to KDE5-plasma-desktop 5.2.2. . The same is happening after relogin next to sddm-restart(killing process in terminal shown by Ctrl+ Alt+ F1). Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. sddm restart 2. 3. Actual Results: mouse-switches and keyboard inoperable with KDE 5.2.2 Expected Results: normal operation KDE 5.2.2 hangs(keyboard and mouse-switches)
Are you sure this is related to or caused by sddm? Is this reproducible with a LiveCD (either Kubuntu 15.04 or 15.10)?
Hi Christoph! I'm NO expert at all, but problems are gone for about 5' after sddm-restart . . . These problems started with an overflow of root-partition, caused by setting of a VirtualBox-snapshot. So my bug-report is just informational and developers might improve KDE-desktop to be more crash-tolerant. The problem is not hardware-related as with the upgrade to Kubuntu 15.10 yesterday everything is fine again . . . so start of a Kubuntu-Live-CD > 15.04 will be fine aswell. There should be a way for USERS to 'repair' their installation next time keyboard and mouse-switches stop operating, as reinstallation/upgrade of Kubuntu isn't a serious choice . . . Good night and sleep well! Gute Nacht Manfred
I don't suppose this is still happening in any recent versions of Plasma 5?
