Cannot Logout of KDE

[BHReach]

I had a situation occur where I could not logout of KDE.

Everything else seemed to be working but clicking on the logout entry in the menu did nothing.

I had to Kill the X server, the screen went blank for a few seconds and then the login screen came up.

It hasn't happened again but I stopped using KDE for the most part and switched to icewm for my desktop.

And please provide the output of the following commands, as normal user:

Code: Select all

rpm -qa systemd polkit
ps -ef|grep -v grep|grep -iE "polkit|policykit"
loginctl show-session $XDG_SESSION_ID
pkexec whoami        (you need to enter the root password in the authentication dialog that pops up)
qdbus org.kde.ksmserver /KSMServer

and as root the output of

Code: Select all

systemctl status polkit.service -a


You can try logout as normal user via

Code: Select all

$ qdbus org.kde.ksmserver /KSMServer logout 0 2 0

Gave no output but shutdown and turned the computer off.

Before running these commands, I updated all the software. The problem only occurred once. Kde was the default install, I did not modify it.

Then you were missing updates. Please mark the thread accordingly by editing the topic of the first post and prefix it by [SOLVED], thanks

FWIW, if it reoccurs, could also be this bug which was recently reported: https://bugs.mageia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=17123
