Re: Anyone see panel lockups

Yes, it's not uncommon, see https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1193742 (there are other bugs tracking similar symptoms, but it is my opinion this is the primary issue), and please test libxcb update: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2015-10920 That includes some backported upstream fixes for such deadlocks. -- Rex ________________________________________ From: kde-bounces(a)lists.fedoraproject.org <kde-bounces(a)lists.fedoraproject.org> on behalf of Roderick Johnstone <rmj(a)ast.cam.ac.uk> Sent: Thursday, July 2, 2015 5:39 AM To: kde(a)lists.fedoraproject.org Subject: Anyone see panel lockups Hi again Today's issue was that a couple of people reported the plasma panel had locked up overnight. The clock was stuck at a bit after 9:00pm for one person and a bit after 11:00pm for someone else. I tried stracing plasmashell but there was no strace output, and strace was locked up. I couldn't ^C out of it but a kill without -9 was able to kill it. Restarting plasmashell fixed the panel problem. Anyone else seen this sort of behaviour?

KDE session pauses
by Roderick Johnstone 02 Jul '15

02 Jul '15

Hi Since this morning, me and my users have been seeing pauses in our KDE sessions on F22. Symptoms are that typing in a terminal stops for a second or two every few minutes (at irregular intervals). Sometimes the pause is longer than other times. You can still move the windows around. Active pings to other hosts also pause but eventually write the expected output as if nothing had happened - normal ping times, no lost pings. I've done a lot of tests and think I've eliminated network hangups to the nis server and home disk hang ups (home disk are local but looked up over NIS). Everything works as normal in an XFCE session, its KDE thats affected. It seems that konsole and emacs i/o thats paused. Probably other termianls/editors would pause too but I haven't tried them. BBC news channel also goes buffering for a moment, but with the spinning symbol. There were no obvious KDE updates last night, just a handful of other packages. Anyone else seeing this kind of behaviour? Thanks Roderick Johnstone
