Configs examples.
SUMMARY
Hotkeys stop working on X11 after switching X11 <-> Wayland.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Switch from X11 to Wayland
2. Switch from Wayland to X11
OBSERVED RESULT
Some global shortcuts (for e.g. Ctrl+Alt+T) stop working. Any hotkeys in Java
with Swing also stop working.
EXPECTED RESULT
Working hotkeys/global shortcuts.
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
KDE neon
KDE Plasma Version: 6.1.0
KDE Frameworks Version: 6.3.0
Qt Version: 6.7.0
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Seems to be:
1. X11 and Wayland have inconsistent settings in kglobalaccel.
2. "Defaults" button (or just removing kglobalshortcutsrc) doesn't fix the
issue.
3. Only one way to fix is reset entire settings. Only after this procedure can
we get working kglobalshortcutsrc for X11.
This is how I fix it:
```
# Temporary reset configs to default settings
mv ~/.config ~/.config-bad
sudo systemctl restart sddm
# Copy the right config
cp ~/.config/kglobalshortcutsrc ~/.config-bad/kglobalshortcutsrc
# Restore old configs
rm -rf ~/.config
mv ~/.config-bad ~/.config
sudo systemctl restart sddm
```
See in attachments:
config.diff - difference between good and bad configs.
kglobalshortcutsrc-good - this config was generated after removing .confg
(good)
kglobalshortcutsrc-bad - this config was generated after removing only
~/.config/kglobalshortcutsrc (bad)
