Bug ID: 414438
Summary: KWin X11 crashes on boot
Product: kwin
Version: 5.17.3
Platform: Archlinux Packages
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: crash
Priority: NOR
Component: platform-x11-standalone

The KWin log from journald
SUMMARY
Kwin on X11 crashes on boot (doesn't happen on Wayland) but I have not managed
to get logs for this. It's not exactly a crash, the windows are all there and i
can interact with them, by mouse or keyboard but I can't see them until i do
"kwin_x11 --replace". Once I restart Kwin, it works perfectly. Is there any way
to collect logs for Kwin from boot?
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Boot to Plasma on X11
2. Notice how the panel, latte dock and krunner works and displays as they
should but any normal window will be invisible.
3. Restart Kwin to get a perfectly working desktop
OBSERVED RESULT
Can't see any windows until restarting KWin
EXPECTED RESULT
Should be able to use desktop after boot with no issues
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Linux/KDE Plasma: 5.3.12-arch1-1 64-bit
(available in About System)
KDE Plasma Version: 5.17.3
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.64.0
Qt Version: 5.13.2
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
It functions as it should on Wayland, but Wayland has many minor issues (which
have already been reported by others) that makes it unusable for me. I
understand that this report isn't of much use due to the lack of enough logs. I
have attached the log from journald though it doesn't look very useful.
