SUMMARY So, we all know that the new wallpaper is rocking awesome :) Now plasma shell doesn't load the wallpapers i set. During the session where I change wallpapers, it can load the wallpaper, but on logout/login again, its the default wallpaper again ! ( note: plasma-org.kde.plasma.desktop-appletsrc still has the files/wallpapers set, just doesn't use them/load them ) thank you ! STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Change desktop wallpaper 2. logout 3. login OBSERVED RESULT the default wallpaper is used EXPECTED RESULT the wallpaper i set would be used SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Windows: macOS: Linux/KDE Plasma: opensuse plasma git packages (available in About System) KDE Plasma Version: KDE Frameworks Version: Qt Version: ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Can you attach your plasma-org.kde.plasma.desktop-appletsrc file?
Created attachment 129692 [details] plasma shell file
sorry for the delay. I just changed some wallpapers on the previous login and then logged out. wallpapers still the default in the new login.
Requested information was added with comment 2; changing status for inspection.
What Plasma version are you using, and do you remember in which version this started happening for you?
I am using opensuse tumbleweed git packages. I don't recall the exact date, but i would say at least two weeks now
Thanks, so this is a regression on master then. Still cannot reproduce. If yo remove the following line from your plasma-org.kde.plasma.desktop-appletsrc file: [Containments][350][Wallpaper][org.kde.image][General] Image=file:///usr/share/wallpapers/Next/contents/images/2560x1440.jpg Does the problem get fixed? And if not, does that line re-appear?
I removed the mentioned lines. when I logged in, I customized some wallpapers and logged out. logging in again, wallpapers are still default, but now the definitions on plasma shell file aren't written! so no, the line does not reappear
just some info: The only "possible weird setup I might have" is that I have multiple monitors and use more than one activity.
Darn, thanks.
well, i was hoping this was something that devs would reply " yeah we know, we are implementing this xxxx and it will work when its done ". I it still giving problems, I can on the weekend try reverting back to specific commits and try to find what really broke this.
Yeah sorry to disappoint.
ok, so as a quick work, i had locally this repo: https://invent.kde.org/pereiraalexandre/plasma-workspace, which is from 3 weeks ago. This still loads the wallpapers. I will try to find out the exact cause !
nevermind.... it seems the latest work on wallpaper made it work again. so either I am mixing branches, or its fixed ! If you want, you ( or I , dunno who should be ) can close it as fixed. I will verify confirmation when opensuse git packages tomorrow arrive !
Hum... I might seem to have mixed things, because this bug is still on effect, in wayland and x11!
What version of Plasma are you using? 5.19.x or git master?
(In reply to Nate Graham from comment #16) > What version of Plasma are you using? 5.19.x or git master? retested this from git master, opensuse "KUF" repos from today.
Thanks. Still weird, still cannot reproduce with same git master on my system. :)
