• Plasma 6 - strange behaviour in Applicationstarter

    From Hans@21:1/5 to All on Thu Jul 31 18:20:01 2025
    Hi folks,

    after an upgrade to trixie with plasma6, I am struggeling with a strange
    issue. Plasma6 is running X11, not Wayland.

    The problem is, when clicking on the Application starter (the little "K"-Icon in the taskbar), then it pops up and shows the categories, but when I hover to the applications, the second menu disappears.

    I also discovered, when I stay with the mouse over a category, the curser is blinking.

    Did one of you got saw the same behaviour, too?

    I disconnected the mouse and its dongle, but got no success. As it is a laptop (dell Latitude), of course the touchpad might interfere.

    The touchpad is ok, tested with several livesystems.

    I do not believe, it is a hardware problem, more a problem with the software.

    On my desktop computer (same plasma version and trixie), it is working well.

    Any ideas??? Or is this maybe a bug?

    Thanks for reading and your help.

    Best

    Hans
