Plasmashell start without panel and I need to run plasmashell replace

Hi,

I don't understand why, when I'm logged via sddm, plasma appear without my wallpaper (instead appear the default one) with icons and without any panel.

Then I need to execute "plasmashell --replace&" in the krunner (it works when I press alt+space).

It's annoying to me, cause I need to execute it on every boot.

Can anyone help me to debug what's happening to my plasma?

Thanks in advance.

No, that not works for me. For more information, it happens with a new user too, and not happens when I run plasma with wayland but yes in xorg.

Thanks.

I don't know what krunner is (haven't been using KDE since the 2008-ish), but I see you are using job control (&). What that does is to resume execution of the called program in the background, until the calling shell terminates. If you want the program to continue even after that, try
Code: [Select]
nohup plasmashell --replace >/dev/null &

thanks, strajder for your answer.

I execute the command when plasmashell doesn't work correctly, not before. I execute it by krunner:

https://userbase.kde.org/Plasma/Krunner

And I think that the problem isn't the execute of this second command with or without nohup :( (is only the way I found to re-execute plasmashell and then get my panel and wallpaper).

you can run
Code: [Select]
plasmashell  --replace  &
in terminal and put here the output from terminal, if we can say output, maybe we can find where is a problem

Here you can see the output:

But as I said, when I re-execute it, all works as expected. Is when I do the login from sddm.

Thanks
