Description kiko loche 2015-02-16 18:15:36 UTC
Description:After five minutes, plasma 5 becomes unresponsive. I can move the mouse pointer and open a console terminal with ctrl+alt+Fn, but that's all. Terminal works fine. In Xorg.0.log, at second 330 or so from boot i can see the message:

"(II) AIGLX: Suspending AIGLX clients for VT switch"

at the end of the file

Additional info: My hard disk is not full

* package and version(s): xorg-server 1.17.1



Steps to reproduce:
1) start plasma 5 
2) wait 2-5 minutes

Comment 6 Chris Wilson 2015-02-17 08:31:10 UTC
Please attach the stacktrace from kwin (using gdb and lots of debug packages for the symbols).
Comment 7 kiko loche 2015-02-17 11:09:28 UTC
I have compiled and installed kwin with debug symbols, but i don't know how to debug it with gdb.
Comment 8 Chris Wilson 2015-02-17 17:06:50 UTC
Once it freezes switch to vt and run "gdb --pid `pidof kwin`" and then type bt. It may not be called kwin but something similar so check first.
Comment 9 student975 2015-02-17 17:12:53 UTC
The process is called `kwin_x11` in Arch.

Do you need "set solib-search-path" or "set sysroot"?

kwin trace
Comment 12 kiko loche 2015-02-18 11:12:45 UTC
I am not sure if the last trace was of kwin. I have repeat the procedure again and this is the result. Is attached as trace2.log file.

The first trace was of kate, the second from kwin. Can you repeat that a couple of times to see if kwin is advancing or always waiting for that reply?

Comment 17 kiko loche 2015-02-18 13:43:46 UTC
Some aclarations:

In trace3.log I didn't wait plasma 5 freeze. I switched to vt before and run gdb.

In trace4.log I waited until plasma 5 freeze. Then I switched to vt and run gdb.
Comment 18 Chris Wilson 2015-02-18 13:54:39 UTC
trace3 is nice and boring. trace4 is in a different location to trace2. Still it suggests that it is not kwin that is freezing, so I have no idea why it appears to become unresponsive.

Comment 21 kiko loche 2015-02-19 00:27:03 UTC
I have repeated the procedure twice (trace5.log and trace6.log). Perhaps ...
Comment 22 Chris Wilson 2015-02-19 12:56:37 UTC
3 traces now repeating that QLockFile::tryLock() -> nanosleep() pause. I suggest raising it with kwin/kde devs first to see if they have suggests to debug that particular lockup. Alternatively, you can try downgrading components to see if the freeze goes away - it may be related or a even a different bug altogether.
Comment 23 kiko loche 2015-02-19 14:54:44 UTC
Ok. I have sended them  the information about this thread.
Comment 24 kiko loche 2015-02-19 15:56:16 UTC
The problem was a corruption state of svg cache. I resolved the problem with the following commands:

rm -fr ~/.cache/plasma*
rm -fr ~/.cache/ksycoca*
rm -fr ~/.cache/*.kcache
kbuildsycoca5
