It is not just the KDE Panel but the whole desktop freezes. I can't right click on desktop. Although apps keep working fine. I can shuffle across them using Alt-Tab shortcut.

pretty sure this is apper (and PackageKit) related, reassigning there.

Comment 5 Rex Dieter 2014-12-11 16:50:40 UTC
Per irc , asked to run: pkcon refresh force

result:

Failed to contact PackageKit: Error calling StartServiceByName for org.freedesktop.PackageKit: GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.TimedOut: Activation of org.freedesktop.PackageKit timed out

and the referenced dmesg log definitely includes packagekitd crashing,

on irc, determined backtrace to be dup bug #1164330  and confirmed user had bumblebee repo enabled
