Hi,
I moved over to KDE Neon from Ubuntu and have been absolutely loving it.
About a week ago the bar at the bottom of the screen started to freeze, then restart and I’d get a handler window pop up. It’s been really annoying and I’d like to try and fix it.
I basically run the same apps all the time, Chrome, Discord, VSCode and a terminal.
This is the info that’s in syslog after the crash:
