Hello All! I noticed a problem. When I open the Screen dialog from the plasma5 System Settings, it crashes. If I open the same dialog with a command `kcmshell5 kcm_kscreen`, then everything is fine. I have the latest packages installed. Does anyone else have such a problem? And are there any suggestions for a solution?
@Serge Could you please provide additional information including: - Exact FreeBSD version (uname -a) output - pkg version -v output (as an attachment) - /var/run/dmesg.boot output (as an attachment) Obtaining a backtrace of the crashing process (and providing it as an attachment) would also be great.
Moin moin Do you mean the 'Display configuration' where you configure the monitor arrangement and such? mfg Tobias
I have the same issue. FreeBSD mizar.xyzzy 12.1-RELEASE-p2 FreeBSD 12.1-RELEASE-p2 #3 r357330M: Fri Jan 31 14:39:48 CET 2020 root@v904.xyzzy:/.../hal/z/OBJ/FreeBSD/amd64/releng/12.1/amd64.amd64/sys/XYZZY_SMP amd64 I don't get a core dump, instead the kcrash handler is running... -- Martin
And yes, it is "Display and Monitor" I am running the closed-source nvidia driver btw. -- Martin
(In reply to Martin Birgmeier from comment #5) Hm, works just fine for me on nvidia [1] Are your packages all up-to-date? mfg Tobias [1] https://people.freebsd.org/~tcberner/pictures/screen_settings.png

Yes, it is "Display and Monitor". uname -a FreeBSD ulbsd 12.1-RELEASE-p2 FreeBSD 12.1-RELEASE-p2 ULBSD amd64 And I use VESA or i915kms.ko drivers. The result is the same.
(In reply to Tobias C. Berner from comment #6) Yes, Display and Monitor works fine if View Style of System Settings is "Sidebar View". If the Style of System Settings is "Icon View", then Display and Monitor crashes.
But in "Sidebar View" mode System Settings crashes if select "Night Color" in Display and Monitor section.
(In reply to Serge Volkov from comment #11) Indeed, switching to Icon View makes it crash. Have you checked upstream for similar reports already? mfg Tobias
Interesting... same here, works from sidebar up to a certain point - "night color" crashes.
The issue seems to be that we at the moment cannot provide the 'geolocation' dataengine, and the night-shift plugins' qml depends on it. You can quickly edit /usr/local/share/kpackage/kcms/kcm_nightcolor/contents/ui/main.qml and remove the CC.Geolocation { [...] } block to confirm this. mfg Tobias

Thank you Tobias for finding this. Regarding the KDE issue entry - could this also solve bug #236174 which I now experience again since some time? -- Martin
(In reply to Tobias C. Berner from comment #15) Removing the CC.Geolocator block in /usr/local/share/kpackage/kcms/kcm_nightcolor/contents/ui/main.qml solves the problem. Thank you!
(In reply to Serge Volkov from comment #18) With the update kf5-kcmutils port (see commit above) it should work unmodified too :) mfg Tobias

(In reply to Martin Birgmeier from comment #17) Hm, could be -- I also sometimes get them on my notebook too unfortunately; so let's see if they are gone :)
