SUMMARY The krdp kcm in system settings can take a few seconds to load and during this time it appears to lock up the entire system settings app. It appears to suffer from the same issue that the game controller kcm used to suffer from before plasma 6.1. It would be helpful if whatever improvements were made to the loading of the game controller kcm also be applied to the new krdp kcm. I am beta testing Plasma 6.1 on Arch and just decided to try out krdp. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Open system settings. 2. Go to Remote Desktop Section OBSERVED RESULT UI freezes, clicks not registered until remote desktop section loads in. EXPECTED RESULT UI should never lock up from loading in different sections.

A possibly relevant merge request was started @ https://invent.kde.org/plasma/krdp/-/merge_requests/34
This should hopefully help. I am not able to get it to lock on my system unfortunately. https://invent.kde.org/plasma/krdp/-/merge_requests/34 Operating System: Fedora Linux 40 KDE Plasma Version: 6.1.80 KDE Frameworks Version: 6.3.0 Qt Version: 6.7.0 Kernel Version: 6.8.10-300.fc40.x86_64 (64-bit) Graphics Platform: Wayland Processors: 12 × AMD Ryzen 5 3600 6-Core Processor Memory: 15.5 GiB of RAM Graphics Processor: AMD Radeon RX 6600
Thanks, out of curiosity does the page load instantly for you when you open it in system settings?
