Leap 42.1 Kwin crashes after upgrade to 42.1 from 13.2

Just some basic ideas to start with…

Which rendering backend is in use? (You might try changing to see whether this helps with stability)

qdbus org.kde.KWin /Compositor org.kde.kwin.Compositing.compositingType

Is desktop effects active?

qdbus org.kde.KWin /Compositor org.kde.kwin.Compositing.active

If enabled, have you tried turning them off by toggling with Shift-Alt-F12?
