KDE4 Plasma issue when running Nextcloud client
by DaijoubuKun from LinuxQuestions.org on (#5EAPG)
Here's a strange one, I'm running Slackware64 14.2 and I have the Nextcloud client from slackbuilds which uses qt5 also built from slackbuilds. After a few days at random times, KDE will stop responding correctly. For example, I can't switch virtual desktops, I can't click on different programs in my task bar. Alt-tab works as well as several other KDE shortcuts. The only way to fix is to open a new terminal and run 'killall plasma-desktop && plasma-desktop' and after a few seconds my machine is usable again.
I run this in a tmux session so I can keep track of errors and what I've found is there is always this same error when this issue starts.
Code:void DBusMenuImporter::slotGetLayoutFinished(QDBusPendingCallWatcher*): "Did not receive a reply. Possible causes include: the remote application did not send a reply, the message bus security policy blocked the reply, the reply timeout expired, or the network connection was broken."After killing plasma-desktop and starting it again, I get some strange lines, but they might not have anything to do with the error.

It has been going so long I don't even remember when it started.
