Hey,
I am using KDE Plasma 5.20.3 after Manjaro update with the stable branch.
I tried logout then login, but it shows the black screen with cursor. I can not open terminal or krunner.
This issue is only using Xorg after logout then login. Wayland works fine. Login with Xorg after restart works fine.
Yesterday I updated some packages with pacman and today after logging in, my screen is completely black, the only thing that I can see is my mouse cursor and dropdown terminal.
It’s strange because I can open any program from the dropdown terminal and use it. But I’m not able to see my home desktop and taskbar.
has anyone had a similar problem and knows where I can look to fix this problem?
It does not help me.
I am using AMD rx5700.
Does someone have the same issue?
Sorry for my bad English

Ah it works but it takes more than 5 mins waiting, then desktop appears normal!
It takes very short time or more than 5 mins, that’s random.
I tests it on virtual machine, it has the same issue.

I checks KDE Neon with the same Plasma version on VM, it has no issue.
I think there is some bug in Manjaro…

Did you try with a reboot?

Yes, I wrote “… Login with Xorg after restart works fine.”

It’s not a bug then.
You should always reboot after updates to kernel, firmware and Desktop Environments, to make sure that all the files get initialized correctly.

Yes, I did. The issue is always there when you log out then log in.
