Created attachment 175944 [details] Output of Plasmashell during this *** If you're not sure this is actually a bug, instead post about it at https://discuss.kde.org If you're reporting a crash, attach a backtrace with debug symbols; see https://community.kde.org/Guidelines_and_HOWTOs/Debugging/How_to_create_useful_crash_reports Please remove this comment after reading and before submitting - thanks! *** SUMMARY Plasmashell cripples after widget is added to any sort of panel on external screen, though kwin remains mostly functional STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Add panel to external screen 2. Add widgets to said panel OBSERVED RESULT Plasma severely slows down till it basically freezes, though some stuff *slowly* happens, deleting the panel and then force restarting plasma stops said slow down. EXPECTED RESULT Plasma continues functioning as usual SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Operating System: EndeavourOS KDE Plasma Version: 6.2.3 KDE Frameworks Version: 6.8.0 Qt Version: 6.8.0 Kernel Version: 6.6.62-1-lts (64-bit) Graphics Platform: Wayland Processors: 4 × Intel® Core™ i5-6267U CPU @ 2.90GHz Memory: 7.6 GiB of RAM Graphics Processor: Mesa Intel® Iris® Graphics 550 Manufacturer: Apple Inc. Product Name: MacBookPro13,2 System Version: 1.0 ADDITIONAL INFORMATION I am very much sure this is an issue in my own setup, but I've already reset my Plasma configuration, and have been able to narrow it down to this, but it's important to note I haven't been able to reproduce this on a Fedora 41 install, and presumably a fresh arch/endeavour setup or any sort of install that isn't mine. I've attached the output of plasmashell while reproducing this, though I'm not sure if anything stands out. Any further pointers appreciated Other info: The two displays attached are an external 1080p@165hz@100% Scaling 24' Acer monitor set as primary, the other display is the internal macbook one running at 2560x1600@60hz@200% Scaling set as secondary
I do this myself and everything is fine. I suspect it'll end up being an issue with one of the widgets you've added. Can you report which widgets cause it? Can you remove them and see if the problem goes away if you add a different widget?
