However, both configurations are that one TDE session is used over both screens => $DISPLAY is simply ":0" and one kdesktop is running. And everything works fine. As you can see from your list of processes, for R14.0.6 kdesktop is also run incorrectly and kdesktop_lock is even more incorrectly. There should always be one kdesktop + kdesktop_lock pair per TDE session. The question here is whether these multiple kdesktop processes really work, or if there was no crash (and therefore no flicker) just because one of them is stuck and doesn't really work? Here are the questions for which we need to find the answer: 1. Why is more kdesktop running? Is there one TDE session or more? 2. Why does kdesktop crash? Note: In any case, thank you for adding information about the situation - at the beginning I did not know what to imagine under the flickering and therefore I thought it was xserver crashes.
