Do you have multiple displays? Are you using nvidia drivers?
Hi, I do have two displays. I am not using nvidia drivers, it is intel drivers.
Hi, Same issue here with 2 monitors and AMD graphics card (R600g driver). When I start several instances of konsole (>5) plasmashell is getting very unstable. For instance, this shows up when switching desktops. HTH Martin Kho
Hi, Update: It seems that this issue has indeed to do with two-monitor setup. When konsole opens on my primary screen it works as expected, on the secondary screen it fails. Martin Kho
