That's all. Workaround (did it many times when plasmashell crashed in the past): * You can use Alt+F2 to open krunner dialog (normally tiny at the top). * Than type "plasmashell" + Enter and it should run. * Even if it crash again, you should be able to use the same method for running konsole and have further debugging lead. > On the fedora users mailing list, we identified that it is due to > plasmashell crash. > With a newly created user, I get the same problem. > > Here is the content of .xsession-errors after the crash: > xset: bad font path element (#2), possible causes are: > Directory does not exist or has wrong permissions > Directory missing fonts.dir > Incorrect font server address or syntax > startkde: Starting up... > > vmware-user: could not open /proc/fs/vmblock/dev > Already running > abrt-applet: Impossible d'afficher la notification : > GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.ServiceUnknown: The name > org.freedesktop.Notifications was not provided b> > abrt-applet: Impossible d'afficher la notification : > GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.ServiceUnknown: The name > org.freedesktop.Notifications was not provided b> > ... > KCrash: Attempting to start /usr/bin/plasmashell from kdeinit > KCrash: Application 'plasmashell' crashing... > KCrash: Attempting to start /usr/libexec/drkonqi from kdeinit > > > setenforce 0 did not help. > > And this is what I see if I boot in level 3 and run startx from the terminal: > > xauth: file /home/fred/.serverauth.1393 does not exist > > X.Org X Server 1.19.3 > Release Date: 2017-03-15 > ... > xf86EnableIOPorts: failed to set IOPL for I/O (Operation not permitted) > xset: bad font path element (#2), possible causes are: > Directory does not exist or has wrong permissions > Directory missing fonts.dir > Incorrect font server address or syntax > startkde: Starting up... > dbus-update-activation-environment: warning: error sending > to systemd: org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.Spawn.ChildExited: Process > org.freedesktop.systemd1 exited with status 1 > vmware-user: could not open /proc > .KCrash: Attempting to start /usr/bin/kdeinit5 from > kdeinitsock_file=/run/user/1000/kdeinit5__0 > Warning: conncect() failed: : No such file or directory > KCrash: Attempting to start /usr/bin/kdeinit5 directly > KCrash: Applicatino 'kdeinit5' crashing... > kdeinit5: Communication error with launcher.
