How can I get logs for the desltop freezing?

This is related to bug:497073, but I don’t know how to create a backtrace or logs for the panel itself, espescially when the freeze occurs. The crashreport page has been shared there but that is for crashes and not freezes.
Do I need to create a backtrace for freetube or plasmashell, and if so, what would that look like in practice?

Hi - the procedure here in the section titled Retrieving a backtrace with GDB should help you get a usable backtrace for a program that’s not crashing, but freezing up instead :slight_smile:

If you’re trying to get one for plasmashell, then you’d likely need to use the “attach to an existing process” step of providing the existing process ID (pid).
