Description Peter Gervase 2016-03-30 18:02:24 UTC
Description of problem:
A couple of times a day, my system will become unresponsive for about a minute. This seems to happen more frequently when I go to unlock the computer when it has the screen saver open. It has happened when I have youtube open, a video playing, and I hit the volume up or down button. The audio from the video will continue playing correctly, but the rest of the system is not responsive.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
kernel 4.6.0-0.rc1.git0.1.fc25.x86_64
kde-runtime-15.12.3-1.fc25.x86_64
plasma-workspace-5.5.5-8.fc25.x86_64

How reproducible:
A few times a day this will happen

Steps to Reproduce:
1. This happens somewhat irregularly, so it's difficult to give exact steps, but it seems to happen if I typo the password to unlock the screen saver. As mentioned, it's happened at various other times, too.
2.
3.

Actual results:
The system will be unresponsive for about a minute and then things will snap back and everything will be fine.

Expected results:
The system to not go unresponsive

Additional info:
1) Potentially related to 
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1300359
but there I'd mentioned specifically in konsole and the 'hang' would last ~ five minutes. Here, the issue lasts for about a minute and it can be caused by entering a wrong password to unlock the screen or clicking the fedora icon for the application launcher or just changing the volume when listening to something on youtube.

2) This seems to happen only with KDE. If I use mate, I haven't noticed this problem.

3) Please let me know what logs you want. I checked /var/log/messages and journalctl, but nothing jumped out. I think journalctl is having issues because the last thing logged is from two weeks ago (17th of march).

4) I thought that I'd already reported this, but I couldn't find anything. I'm sorry if this is a dupe of a bug I've already reported :(

Comment 1 Peter Gervase 2016-03-30 18:14:33 UTC
When I went to unlock it just now, I had the issue. No typos, just entered the password, hit enter, and then the system went unresponsive with the login screen still showing the * or whatever for the password I'd entered.

Comment 2 Jan Kurik 2016-07-26 05:07:52 UTC
This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 25 development cycle.
Changing version to '25'.

Comment 3 Fedora End Of Life 2017-11-16 15:44:04 UTC
This message is a reminder that Fedora 25 is nearing its end of life.
Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now Fedora will stop maintaining
and issuing updates for Fedora 25. It is Fedora's policy to close all
bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time
this bug will be closed as EOL if it remains open with a Fedora  'version'
of '25'.

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you
plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version'
to a later Fedora version.

Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not
able to fix it before Fedora 25 is end of life. If you would still like
to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version
of Fedora, you are encouraged  change the 'version' to a later Fedora
version prior this bug is closed as described in the policy above.

Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's
lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a
more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes
bugs or makes them obsolete.

Comment 4 Fedora End Of Life 2017-12-12 10:53:46 UTC
Fedora 25 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2017-12-12. Fedora 25 is
no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further
security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug.

If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of
Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. If you
are unable to reopen this bug, please file a new report against the
current release. If you experience problems, please add a comment to this
bug.

Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
