Bug ID: 464835
Summary: kscreen-console prints nothing under Wayland
Classification: Plasma
Product: KScreen
Version: 5.26.5
Platform: Fedora RPMs
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: common
Assignee: kscreen-bugs-n...@kde.org
Reporter: skierp...@gmail.com
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
https://community.kde.org/Solid/Projects/ScreenManagement#Debugging_Information
suggests running `kscreen-console bug`. But on Wayland it prints nothing.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Run Plasma on Wayland (check Graphics Platform in System Settings > About
this System)
2. In a terminal, enter
kscreen-console bug
OBSERVED RESULT
QSocketNotifier: Can only be used with threads started with QThread
kf.i18n: KLocalizedString: Using an empty domain, fix the code. msgid: "(c)
2012 KScreen Team" msgid_plural: "" msgctxt: ""
... [6 more kf.i18n: KLocalizedString warnings]
========================xrandr --verbose==========================
========================Outputs===================================
========================Configurations============================
EXPECTED RESULT
Either a nice warning "This tool does not produce useful output when run on the
Wayland graphics platform"
and/or "xrandr program not found, please install it" (see below)
or make it work under Wayland, which would probably require a special interface
to KWin bypassing Wayland's client isolation.
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Linux/KDE Plasma:
KDE Plasma Version: 5.26.5
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.102.0
Qt Version: 5.15.8 on Wayland
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
kscreen-console invokes xrandr, but Fedora 37 KDE spin doesn't even include
this X11 program by default. If I install xrandr, I get a lot of output about
my XWYAYLAND1 and XWAYLAND2 outputs on Screen 0, so if this output is helpful
for debugging maybe kscreen-console could test for xrandr and suggest
installing it. Even with xrandr available it still prints nothing under
===Outputs=== and ===Configuration===
