I'm running Arch Linux on a laptop which is equipped with usb-c connectors. On this connector I plug a dock, on which screens are connected. X is clearly unable to decently manage the situation, so I switched to wayland. On gnome-wayland : things works fine enough regarding plug/unplug and display detection. But ... gnome feels sluggish, mouse or windows are stuttering, etc etc. On the other hand plasma compositor works incredibly smoothly BUT : whenever I unplug the cable, session crash entirely. To reproduce : - boot to console, without anything plugged in - run startplasmacompositor -> starts fine - plug the screens : detected and works fine - unplug : crash, have to restart session I also tried with sddm for login (you never knopw) : same result. I will post here the error message I had in a moment. (have to switch back to console first..) It's really annoying, so far plasma offers the best wayland I ever had... but theses crashes make it unusable. I'm available for any additional info.
Please provide a backtrace of the crash.
Apparently no -dbg package are available on Arch :/ On top of that, after more tests, look slike I have several 'behaviors'. First one : - fresh boot, start console, plug : ll screen ok. - startplasma : ok - unplug : still ok ! - replug : screens not seen :( unplug replug, pc freeze. Something I noticed on the console after I plug /unplug again on consile : UdevQt: unhandled device action "unbind" (repeated lots of time) same thing with "bind" I understand this bug can't go anywhere if I don't provide more input ... and I can't. Feel free to close it, I'll try again in a few releases. For the records if anyone steps by : laptop is dell xps13 9350 usb-c device is a kensigton SD4600P
crash all the same on 5.13 :-(
