Problem with the app launcher

English Applications

Hi, I’m new on Linux. And after a long… rlly long investigation I decided to install openSUSE Leap 15.2 (KDE). The installation was soft (like butter), but when I tried to use the system I have a problem with the app launcher that refresh and I can’t use correctly. There’s a fix that can help me?

Hi. I’m not an expert, but here are a few things you could try:

  1. Log out and Log in again. Any change?
  2. Restart the menu and task tray by loading the run dialog with ALT+F2, then typing in box that drops down from top:
kquitapp5 plasmashell && kstart5 plasmashell

Then press return.

  1. Use Yast to add a new test user, and try logging in as a the test user. Do you get the same problem?

If you need any more help with any of the above, then just ask.

Others may know a better solution.

ILL nVidia + nouveau drivers + OpenGL renderer.
Do not use in that blend.

Sorry for not answer before. End of holidays… family going.

Yeah the solution was more easy that I think, sorry my first time on Linux.

The solution if someone need:

1.) Right click on the launcher icon, and on the Edit Applications option, the following window will appear:
https://www.forosuse.org/forosuse/attachment.php?attachmentid=2585&d=1609872631

2.) Once in the window add a separator, save the configuration. I delete the separator and I saved again and it stopped blinking.

Sorry I’m still nervous about this Linux thing. Have a happy new year 2021.
