--- Comment #5 from smihael <[email protected]> --- I have been able to reproduce this issue twice so far by creating one or more new notes (using a middle-click on the desktop) and then c to simulate a sudden power loss such as battery drainage. I have not been able to reproduce the issue by triggering suspend in the following ways: * Closing the laptop lid (but I am quite sure data loss occurred in this way in the past), * Selecting suspend manually from the system menu, * Sending a suspend signal directly without going through any DE daemons: echo mem | sudo tee /sys/power/state However, I suspect the outcome might be different if the system remains in suspend for a longer time instead of being resumed immediately. This leads me to believe the bug is related to data being cached or stored in memory without being written to disk. I also tested by running killall plasmashell, but the issue did not reproduce. This suggests that another process is responsible for holding the notes' content in memory. Additionally, I found that the contents of notes cannot be restored from ~/.local/share/plasma_notes/. This prompted me to investigate when they are actually written there for permanent storage. I set up a watch: notifywait -m -e create -e modify ~/.local/share/plasma_notes/ Setting up watches. Watches established. No events are triggered when creating a new note or when suspending the system through the DE menu. The newly created note is only saved once it is edited, for example by adding at least one more character. .local/share/plasma_notes/ CREATE 037b2cb7-1f28-460b-8cc8-75fa31512c .local/share/plasma_notes/ MODIFY 037b2cb7-1f28-460b-8cc8-75fa31512c .local/share/plasma_notes/ MODIFY 037b2cb7-1f28-460b-8cc8-75fa31512c Then the note also survives pressing Alt+SysRq+B.
