Internal Links: 1317618

Description Raphael Groner 2015-12-19 17:55:14 UTC
Description of problem:
AFter logged out from LXQt Panel, I get a black screen with an alone mouse pointer. Workaround is to reboot or at least restart sddm.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
lxqt-panel-.10.0-1.fc23.x86_64       
lxqt-session-0.10.0-1.fc23.x86_64       
sddm-0.13.0-4.fc23.x86_64

How reproducible:
yes

Steps to Reproduce:
1. login to lxqt session
2. logout
3.

Actual results:
black screen

Expected results:
display manager should be shown with possibility to do another login

Additional info:
not sure what component to blame for sure. Maybe lxqt-session or sddm just crashes?

Comment 1 Raphael Groner 2016-01-07 22:42:19 UTC
This is also reproducible when logout from a plasma5 session, using sddm here too. Now it's sddm to blame.

Comment 2 Pier Luigi Fiorini 2016-01-08 17:55:25 UTC
Any relevant sddm log on the journal or any coredump from coredumpctl?

Comment 3 Rex Dieter 2016-01-08 18:03:10 UTC
I've never seen sddm get stuck, but session end does sometimes take longer than expected (sometimes up to a minute or 2)

Comment 4 Fedora Blocker Bugs Application 2016-02-27 19:11:56 UTC
Proposed as a Blocker for 24-beta by Fedora user raphgro using the blocker tracking app because:

Comment 5 Stephen Gallagher 2016-02-29 15:55:32 UTC
Just for the record, the appropriate criterion is: "Shutting down, logging out and rebooting must work using standard console commands and the mechanisms offered (if any) by all release-blocking desktops."

SDDM is installed by default on the KDE Live Image (which is blocking), so by that logic I'd say +1 blocker.

Comment 6 Pier Luigi Fiorini 2016-02-29 16:04:03 UTC
An indication of system information when this black screen with a mouse cursor appears are welcome such as:

- what processes are running (output of ps auxw)
- logind sessions (loginctl list-sessions)
- session information for each session (loginctl show-session XX, loginctl session-status XX where XX is the session id)
- sddm log from journal
- ~/.xsession-errors

Right. Sorry about not being that clear.

Comment 8 Petr Schindler 2016-02-29 18:46:07 UTC
Discussed at 2016-02-29 blocker review meeting: [1]. 

It was decided to delay the decision: This bug seems to be a blocker, but we want to have a few more people test with Plasma to be more sure of the breadth of impact before we vote on it

Comment 9 Kamil Páral 2016-03-07 18:07:43 UTC
Discussed at today's blocker review meeting [1]. We decided to punt (delay decision) - we still don't have sufficient info to make a decision here. we will make a decision next week; if there is not sufficient indication by that time that this issue clearly affects a clean F24 KDE install, it will likely be rejected as a blocker

Comment 11 Rex Dieter 2016-03-07 18:54:58 UTC
fyi, plasma-workspace-5.5.5-3 builds include a back-ported fix for the possible dbus deadlock

Comment 12 Pier Luigi Fiorini 2016-03-07 23:48:37 UTC
Just installed Fedora 24 with KDE on virt-manager.
I can reproduce the issue, Plasma logout doesn't lead back to the SDDM greeter.
However loginctl show-session 1 shows that the session is of class user rather than greeter, and Desktop=KDE.

ps auxwww shows a number of Plasma process like kwin_x11, krunner, xsettings-kde, plasmashell --shut-up etc...

I think that Plasma is to blame.

Comment 13 Pier Luigi Fiorini 2016-03-07 23:51:19 UTC
loginctl session-status 1 shows sddm-helper (the process that starts the session) and all the Plasma processes.

The Plasma processes are not clearly killed on logout.

> I think that Plasma is to blame.

Please be aware that I originally tested with LXQt and it runs lxqt-session. There's no Plasma but LXQt is based on Qt5 as well and the user login happens via SDDM.

Comment 15 Pier Luigi Fiorini 2016-03-08 09:09:32 UTC
Could you please check what's running when this happens?
Without session information is impossible to understand what's going on.

I checked, there's no lxqt* related process running when the screen went black after user's clicked and confirmed to logout.

Comment 17 Pier Luigi Fiorini 2016-03-08 19:54:47 UTC
Can't reproduce with LXQt.

* LXQt is now installed on the F24 virtual machine that was created yesterday with:

dnf install @lxqt

* Restarted SDDM to have the sessions list updated.
* Logged in on LXQt for the first time
* Logout
* SDDM greeter shows up after a couple of seconds

plasma-workspace-5.5.5-4.fc24 qt5-qtbase-5.6.0-0.41.rc.fc24 has been submitted as an update to Fedora 24. https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2016-13bc6572ac

Comment 19 Kamil Páral 2016-03-14 17:01:07 UTC
Discussed at today's blocker review meeting [1]. Decided to split from this bug - the new bug is bug 1317618 and is AcceptedBlocker (Alpha) - per comment 12 it appears there is a bug preventing log out in a clean F24 KDE install from working, that bug is accepted as a blocker. We agree that a new report will be filed to separate the KDE case from the lxqt case and the new KDE bug will be the blocker.

This existing bug is kept for dealing with LXQt issue.
