Description dorien 2016-02-20 16:08:50 UTC

Application: plasmashell (5.5.3)

Qt Version: 5.5.1
Operating System: Linux 4.2.0-27-generic x86_64
Distribution: Ubuntu 15.10

-- Information about the crash:
- What I was doing when the application crashed:
I plugged in my external screen. 
- Unusual behavior I noticed:

This used to work fine. It actually does work fine with another user on the same system. After an update, it started becoming unusable for my main user: each time I plug in my external screen, both go black and plasma crashes (I can see this after I unplugged the thunderbolt and the screen comes back on). I checked the kscreen settings, all seems normal. 




- Custom settings of the application:
All seems normal (when checking kscreen)

The crash can be reproduced every time.

-- Backtrace:
Application: Plasma (plasmashell), signal: Aborted

Comment 1 Papoteur 2016-02-22 06:23:30 UTC

Hello,
I saw the same symptom.
When I plug the second screen, the two screens come black, although all applications are running.
After started with the main screen only, I saw that the file for settings of second screen was wrong. After deleted it, the system works.
I join my files ~/.kde4/share/apps/kscreen/0a24727c50cc715f21df40eed92b1e43
Working system/buggy system.

Buggy configuration file

This file was written when I asked to disable the second screen or when I unplugged it after disabled. The problem was discovered at next attempt to use it by plugging it.

Comment 4 Papoteur 2016-02-22 06:30:10 UTC

I add information on my system:
Mageia 5
kscreen-1.0.71-3.mga5

Comment 5 dorien 2016-02-22 09:31:12 UTC

I renamed a kscreen directory (to kscreen_back) in .config somewhere (can't seem to find it anymore) and it's working now, so it does seem to be something to do with configuration.
