How to fix RAM memory leak bug on a computer with AMD Ryzen 7 2700X and AMD RX 5700XT?

Ah, the bug returned.

The i3 returned xwayland and sway returned xcb. Does the code in the .{x,p,z}profile files look correct for you?

Observe that I removed totally SDDM and I decide to type my username, my password and to run startx for i3 and exec sway for sway.

But on Sway, slock, xidlehook and suspend do not work unless I run suspend with a keybinding.

Due to the wrong detection of desktop session, many apps stop working.

Update

@freebird54 and @anon96036739,

The ghost problem of session restoration and logoff has been solved with:

  • I had to purge totally SDDM;
  • I had to type my username, my password from tty and to run startx
  • I found the ghost and dead NVIDIA services, and removed them;
  • I copied the services from @dbrgn’s his dotfiles to /etc/systemd/system/ and modified the xidlehook.service, and enabled and started the services;
  • I created the ssh-agent in the user systemd, enabled and started it.

It worked only on i3, but it does not work on Sway.

I am still facing the bug of wrong detection of desktop session.

No, because it always “returns” xwayland, no matter what.
If it should sometimes return xcb and sometimes xwayland, then it does not work.

There are only AND operations (&&) in contradicting tests. so the overall test result is always false.
For example, DESKTOP_SESSION cannot be both i3 AND /usr/bin/i3.

You had OR testing (||) which in principal sounds much better.

Maybe a working test set should contain both AND and OR tests.

A tip: design the tests on paper first, get the logic right. Then write it in bash.
