KDE right-click crash

Help

Good day.

Has anyone had any experience with an open window in KDE that if you right-click (be it a file inside the directory/window you click in, or the file itself), that window closes/crashes?

If anyone is wondering (or has any experience with it), I’m running:
-OpenBSD 7.7
-KDE Plasma (to which version I do not recall off hand)
-xenodm as the GUI manager

If anyone has any suggestions, please let me know.

In which context / application? in dolphin (the file manager) or on desktop, both places ?

I would tell you to use coredumpctl info -1 <process_name> but I don’t know the process concerned and if that’s available on OpenBSD. It seems to be in FreeBSD.
And I don’t know if you have debug symbols.
And I would need to know which is the process that crashed, probably either plasmashell or dolphin.

One command to tell you kinfo (or kinfocenter).

OpenBSD 7.7 KDE Plasma 6.3.3

So X11 without kwin ?
That’s doubly unusual and very little tested, neither is OpenBSD (FreeBSD is tested).

Greetings meven.

Quick recap, and I apologize for the delay. Recap:

  1. This issue has only ever occurred with KDE Plasma (the other desktop environments, Xfce, MATE, gnome, though not all) has never given an issue, which I find odd.
  2. I’m using KDE Plasma 6.3
  3. I’m using dolphin as the file manager, but I’ve tried konqueror, nautilus, and attempted to use caja, but the systems setting messenger didn’t recognize it there. I will attempt thunar when I get back home.
  4. As for kwin, I believe that’s running, or at least enabled - again, I’ll double check when I get home.
  5. X11 is the system I use to manage the GUI - I’ve not had any issues with it, ever, at least with the other desktop environments that I’ve listed.
  6. That said, again, the window crashes/closes when I right-click it in, or when I right-click on a file, but that’s it.

Aside from that, changing the wallpapers appear to cause the settings menu to crash/close, but changing the general theme, icons, splash screens, effects, and moving around multiple virtual desktops does not have any effect, and it stays smooth. I know it’s either a configuration issue, setting issue, or I didn’t properly clean something when I should have issue.

Please check coredumpctl as @meven mentioned to see if it is a crash, if it is, then we can work from there.

Will do. Thank you.
