Well, you have plasmashell running so it is a mystery as to what may be going on. Just after login on a system I see... [egreshko@acer ~]$ ps -eaf | grep plasma egreshko 1561 1485 9 06:44 ? 00:00:07 /usr/bin/plasmashell egreshko 1816 1468 0 06:44 ? 00:00:00 desktop.so [kdeinit5] desktop local:/run/user/1029/klauncherTJ1469.1.slave-socket local:/run/user/1029/plasmashellTJ1561.1.slave-socket egreshko 1873 1468 0 06:44 ? 00:00:00 file.so [kdeinit5] file local:/run/user/1029/klauncherTJ1469.1.slave-socket local:/run/user/1029/plasmashellXM1561.2.slave-socket egreshko 1874 1468 0 06:44 ? 00:00:00 trash.so [kdeinit5] trash local:/run/user/1029/klauncherTJ1469.1.slave-socket local:/run/user/1029/plasmashellLh1561.3.slave-socket egreshko 1876 1468 0 06:44 ? 00:00:00 file.so [kdeinit5] file local:/run/user/1029/klauncherTJ1469.1.slave-socket local:/run/user/1029/plasmashellnS1561.4.slave-socket egreshko 1877 1468 0 06:44 ? 00:00:00 trash.so [kdeinit5] trash local:/run/user/1029/klauncherTJ1469.1.slave-socket local:/run/user/1029/plasmashellkn1561.5.slave-socket I don't know of a way to restart plasmashell remotely.... So, I suppose I try strace attached to the plasmashell PID and see if anything pops out. And I'd probably post the current status and findings to the KDE list to see if someone there has an idea. And, of course, you may want to consider a bugzilla. Oh, one thing has just come to mind.... This is a system which has been upgraded from F26 to F27, right? So, it still has an F26 kernel on it. So, does KDE work if you boot the F26 kernel? -- A motto of mine is: When in doubt, try it out
