No Qt apps can be launched without crashing as soon as the network is connected. A manual disconnect (unplugging the ethernet cable or disconnecting from wireless) makes the problem go away. All of them crash in the QXcbConnection constructor. Firefox is launched fine, but it's not a Qt app. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install plasma-nm on a Lenovo P50 2. Connect to a wired or wireless network 3. Try to launch any Qt application Actual Results: The apps fail to start, no matter how they're launched (alt+f2 or clicking on the menu). Looking at journalctl and coredumpctl showed me they were crashing. Expected Results: Not crash.
Closing, not plasma-nm bug.
