The past few weeks, I’ve had the screen freeze randomly. During this time:
- The mouse pointer + trackpad works, it even changes from pointer to cursor, etc. based on where it is
- Nothing is clickable/draggable
- Not sure what causes it because sometimes it happens when
Alt+Tab
ing, sometimes when opening new windows of apps - I can access tty with
ctrl+alt+F2
when it freezes and use it normally -
killall plasmashell
andDISPLAY=:0 kstart5 plasmashell
works in the sense that there aren’t any errors, but there is no change at all on the first screen. The open applications are still frozen, like a picture. - The only way to get out of this (without a restart) is
systemctl restart sddm
which kills the session.
So I’m curious what’s the middle ground between restarting plasmashell and sddm? Or how do you find out what the problem is?
journalctl logs don’t seem helpful (the freeze happened ~10:43, I switched to tty2 as soon as it froze):
❯ journalctl --no-hostname -b -1 --priority=7 --no-pager --since "10:40:00" --until "10:50:00"
