kdeinit5 closed unexpectedly

Hi.

I are having a lot of messanges in the task bar of plasma.
A icon with a sad face appears and when I click in it it says:

We are sorry, kdeinit5 closed unexpectedly.
You cannot report this error, because kdeinit5 does not provide a bug reporting address.

Then in the developer information


Application: kdeinit5 (kdeinit5), signal: Segmentation fault

It is not something that happen when I do something, indeed if it weren’t for the icon i would have noticed nothing. It is just it’s annoying the icon appearing so often.

Maybe it’s some fail from the nvidia driver?

best regards

to start with it would help to know

What is your kernel version?
What version of KDE-Plasma, KDE-Frameworks and Qt does your system use?

When you see that icon what does

# journalctl -b 0 -p 3

reveal?

Nothing. It has just happened twice and the last entry is more than 2 hours old.
I’m thinking if, by the pattern may be something related to sounds

jep, same for me. started some time (maybe one month) ago. I got it really often: always happens when i switch users, sometimes while browsing, then quitting kodi.

This is 15.1 Leap 4.12.14-lp151.28.48-default #1 SMP Fri Apr 17 05:38:36 UTC 2020 (18849d1) x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

KDE Plasma 5.12.8
Fw 5.55.0
Qt 5.9.7

NVIDIA is 340.108 from nvidia-suse repo

journactl delivers nothing really helpful:
Mai 29 21:26:37 pclaptopacer kernel: acer_wmi: Unable to detect available WMID devices
Mai 29 21:27:23 pclaptopacer pulseaudio[1964]: [pulseaudio] bluez5-util.c: GetManagedObjects() failed: org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.TimedOut: Failed to activate service >
ok, but this is like always

Also happens on 2 other pcs, started at the same time after some update (think nvidia drivers). Unfortunatallley no debug- symbols at fckin nvidia. May be a way to deliver them in repo?
As the callstack is always that short, maybe there is some missing function beeing called?

Have not noticed any really convincing consequences - sometimes screen gets blacked out, than it gets reloaded. But as this happens often, sometimes my taskbar gets flooded with 6 crashes. It is a little bit anoying as it had never been doing this years before.

I “solved” it with a quickfix
I removed the execution permision to /usr/lib64/libexec/drkonqi and I have not seen the error again… nor anything nasty.
I know is not the good way but it seems to be a issue not only in opensuse but in other distributions with drkonqui

best regards

I have also started having the same behavior about the same time as you. This system is virtually identical, including the nvidia driver:

15.1 Leap 4.12.14-lp151.28.48-default
KDE Plasma 5.12.8
Frameworks 5.55.0
Qt 5.9.7

NVIDIA is 340.108 from nvidia-suse repo
The behavior is on only this desktop PC, not on any of the ThinkPads.

There is lengthy thread at linux - kdeinit5 fails constantly with Fedora 29 - Super User that saw the issue appear last August. It was attributed to

Conclusion - this error does NOT relate to any particular video driver. This error relates to latest kf5-* version 5.59.0-1 update ONLY. Unfortunately you can not downgrade to kf5-* version 5.58.0-1 - as it is already removed from servers.
Since we have Frameworks 5.55.0, and I installed it 07 Jul 2019, that would not be the cause of the recent issue.

There is a bug report at 1746465 – kdeinit5 closed unexpectedly repeatedly that indicates a Fedora fix, but I find nothing for openSUSE yet.
