SUMMARY Plasma freezes and does not allow key input. This happens intermittently and leaves no dump or errors in logs. OBSERVED RESULT Plasma window manager freezes. EXPECTED RESULT Plasma window manager should not freeze Operating System: KDE neon 5.26 KDE Plasma Version: 5.26.4 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.101.0 Qt Version: 5.15.7 Kernel Version: 5.15.0-56-generic (64-bit) Graphics Platform: Wayland Processors: 8 × Intel® Core™ i7-8565U CPU @ 1.80GHz Memory: 7.5 GiB of RAM Graphics Processor: Mesa Intel® UHD Graphics 620 Manufacturer: HUAWEI Product Name: MACHR-WX9 System Version: M1010
This has nothing to do with the OS or KDE but the hardware as it effects all OS's due to it being an SSD (perhaps RAM issue however i doubt that) issue. Some reports have indicated that the SSD drive needs to be reseated. I did just that and also replaced all thermal glue and pads with new ones. The laptop is a Huawell X Pro 2019 which doesnt have a very good cooling system hence why i replaced all thermal pads and glue with Artic APT2560 0.5 mm piece. It has not frozen since.
