Bug ID: 454461 Summary: Desktop randomly freezes with unclear cause Product: Active Window Control Version: unspecified Platform: Other OS: Linux Status: REPORTED Severity: normal Priority: NOR Component: General Assignee: zrenf...@gmail.com Reporter: bugs_kde_org.5.k...@spamgourmet.com CC: plasma-b...@kde.org Target Milestone: --- SUMMARY When I use KDE neon the desktop seems to sometimes randomly freeze. STEPS TO REPRODUCE I have no idea how to reproduce this bug. First it seemed to be related to Opera, because it would often freeze when I opened a new window, but recently I got the same freeze when I opened JOSM. The only thing I did was to open a Windows: So for Opera: Right Click + New (private) Window. When I got the freeze with JOSM I opened it through the start menu OBSERVED RESULT The desktop freezes entirely. If music or a video is playing, the audio enters a loop of about 2 seconds. The desktop does not react to anything anymore. No clicks, no mouse, no keypresses, no Ctrl + Alt + F6 - nothing. When I had some time I let the PC sit and see if it does somehow get back on it's feet. Since it did not change after 20 minutes I gave up. The only 'fix' I could work out is to hard reset the PC. EXPECTED RESULT A nice BSOD crash would help since it would save me the work or pressing the restart button. Optionally I would of course prefer the system to not-crash and not-freeze since it's usually bad for the workflow :-) SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Operating System: KDE neon 5.24 KDE Plasma Version: 5.24.5 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.94.0 Qt Version: 5.15.4 Kernel Version: 5.13.0-44-generic (64-bit) Graphics Platform: X11 Processors: 16 × AMD Ryzen 7 4800H with Radeon Graphics Memory: 30.8 GiB of RAM Graphics Processor: AMD RENOIR ADDITIONAL INFORMATION I have no idea if this is the right component since I have no idea what even causes the crash. I read about random freezes online with other distros as well which describe a similar pattern on Debian (Including Ubuntu) and Arch (including Manjaro) based systems. Though I have no idea if they are related or not. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
