Dark kde plasma 5 session on Gentoo





.everyoneloves__top-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__mid-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__bot-mid-leaderboard:empty{ margin-bottom:0;
}







2















hI upgraded to KDE plasma 5.5.5 following the KDE 4.11 Gentoo wiki page:



sddm works fine, I can start a working openbox session with it. (Yes sddm is in the video group)



However, when I start plasma, I get a dark screen with working a mouse and a limited krunner.



I have an extensive xorg logfile:
http://pastebin.com/m0mHVXJq



I extracted some relevant lines from it:



QCoreApplication::arguments: Please instantiate the QApplication object first
QDBusConnection: session D-Bus connection created before QCoreApplication. Application may misbehave.
kscreen: Failed to request backend: unknown error


I use openrc and a Nvidia GeForce GTX 760 with 361.28 driver version with 3 displays but two xscreens.

          According to some similar existing bugs on KDE forums, Xinerama can break kde-plasma5, so if you have Xinerama enabled in Xorg's config file (in /etc/X11/xorg.conf ) , try to disable it. It will be in the Section "ServerLayout" :



          Option "Xinerama" "1"



          So if you have the line like above, change the value to zero:



          Option "Xinerama" "0"
