Gwenview is crashing while closing

General system Applications
1

Hello, I have issue with crashing gwenview, typically it crashes when I am closing application. I am running wayland with Plasma 6.5, Qt 6.10, Nvidia 580.95.05-7. Log is below. Any ideas?

welcome here :enos:

what exactly is crashing while closing gwenview? log looks like app is working fine only some error messages about non resolved mimetype and exif data

3

It seems to be fine here.

Operating System: EndeavourOS 
KDE Plasma Version: 6.5.2
KDE Frameworks Version: 6.19.0
Qt Version: 6.10.0
Kernel Version: 6.17.7-arch1-1 (64-bit)
Graphics Platform: Wayland
Processors: 12 × AMD Ryzen 5 2600X Six-Core Processor
Memory: 32 GiB of RAM (31.3 GiB usable)
Graphics Processor: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1660

The only thing I see in your output is a sigkill which is probably Ctrl + C

4

i also have no issues with gwenview on a fresh installed fully updated KDE.
Seems it does not have any close option in menu… so closing it over the window

5

Hamburger → More → File → Quit. It’s well hidden and easier to close it using the window decoration.

6

Good old Alt+F4 key combination also does the trick , for almost any application I can think of.

7

It crashes when I cancel application - in most cases by pressing close button on window decorator. Closing it with quit in hamburger menu seems by okay. Do you have idea how can I get log with more details? Or how can I identify where is the problem?

Thanks

8

thats not a crash thats termination mesage as of using the “x”

9

Yes, that’s not. When I click on “x” it freezes and then I must click on “Terminate Gwenview” after while (dialog because it is not responding) or close it with ctrl+C.

10

log said its terminated.
Could be something related to Window Manager or gpu/driver ? I also searched BUG reports but there is nothing i can see that reports such thing.

some info.

inxi -Gaz
pacman -Qs nvidia

And try if its same same on X11 session too.

I don’t have X11 so I don’t know if it works there.

13

so you do not use any switcher tool to use the Nvidia GPU? it is rendering on the igpu it seems

14

would do that too.

the AD107GLM (RTX 500 Ada Generation) is compatible with NVIDIA’s open-source GPU kernel modules nvidia-open paclage instead of nvidia package

as NVIDIA recommends using them for newer GPUs like those based on the Ada Lovelace architecture. However, some users have reported issues with Optimus configurations..

15

I am using prime-run. Behavior is same with running via prime-run. I thought that nvidia-prime is for ubuntu?

16

primerun is for all Linux

17

Yeah, prime-run I am using. But it seems that problem is independent on GPU.
