Description:
When I run kodi, from a konsole or from a launcher, it starts and then I have 2 equally bad options: - either it seems to go fullscreen, but then all I really see is my plasma desktop... I can move the mouse, but that's all. Nothing within plasma works anymore, and so far my only way out was restarting the plasma session - the other option is similar but I see kodi in a window, in the top left corner and I cannot interact with it (it's frozen). The rest is the same. Sometimes I get a window saying that kwin has crashed and maybe I wish to use a different window manager, but I have not tried. Looking at the processes, there seems to be a lot of kwin_x11 when this happens. I guess it crashed and reloaded a few times. I have no issue playing anything with mpv though... It all worked fine a few hours ago in KDE4. It also works fine in fluxbox so that makes me believe it is plasma/kwin related. I tried no compositor, or different options for the compositor, but it's all the same. I am not sure what else to try. Additional info: * plasma-meta 5.2.0.4 The whole system is up to date with [testing], (linux 3.18.4, xorg-server 1.16.3-2) if that helps I am using the radeonsi driver with a 280x * config and/or log files etc. Steps to reproduce: 1) Install plasma-meta 2) Run kodi |
