Hi all I'd like to run the latest kde desktop , but stuff keeps
crashing. Regular X just drops me right back at login, wayland lets me
log in but has some issues.
Among other things I am unable tune my keyboard settings. SIGSEGV on
XInternAtom in kcms/keyboard/x11_helper.cpp .
I found a report of a similar bug in digiKam on the web, and just for
kicks I tried the attached patch. I am now able to change keyboard
settings in plasma (wayland).
So, how do I find out if this is fixed upstream, and if not where do I
send a bug-report?
