Freezes randomly / does not respond after time
I got the Problem that it is freezing at some random point. When having it running, it does not response after time. Nothing happens when clicking the trayicon and takes a few seconds to open the rightclick menu (somtimes it does not open at all).
Also the terminal does not react on ctrl+c at that point.
I am using Nixos + KDE Plasma 6.
Did someone had the same Issue?
Some questions to help clarify the situation:
- Is anything logged to stdout/stderr, especially with
TRAY_DEBUG=1set in the environment? - Is this the Flatpak?
Its not flatpak. I installed it with the nix package manager.
When I click the tray Icon, 2025/08/06 13:16:36 INFO item method TRAY_DEBUG=1 name=Activate x=1569 y=1045 appears in the log but nothing happens.
When I rightclick,
2025/08/06 13:17:40 INFO menu method TRAY_DEBUG=1 name=AboutToShow id=0 2025/08/06 13:17:40 INFO menu method TRAY_DEBUG=1 name=Event id=0 eventID=opened data="\"\"" timestamp=0 appears and the menu shows up with a 10sec delay. When I click it multiple times in that duration, it shows eventID=opened again and again. When I rightclick when the menu is finally open, it shows 2025/08/06 13:19:26 INFO menu method TRAY_DEBUG=1 name=Event id=0 eventID=closed data="\"\"" timestamp=0 and the menu closes as expected.
Unfortunately there are no errors displayed :/
Hmmm... You're just using the regular KDE 6 tray? Is this X11 or Wayland? I'll log into KDE and see if I can replicate it.
Also, SIGINT is trapped, so it won't close it if it's frozen. You can use Ctrl+\ to really kill it, and it'll even give you a stacktrace.
Ah I noticed that it was trapped but thought it was connected with the issue. The weird thing is: initially, it works great. But after some time, the issue occurs. I am using Wayland. Here is my Systeminfo: Operating System: NixOS 25.11 KDE Plasma Version: 6.4.2 KDE Frameworks Version: 6.15.0 Qt Version: 6.9.0 Kernel Version: 6.12.36 (64-bit) Graphics Platform: Wayland
It's probably a bug in deedles.dev/tray. I did testing with it on KDE, but I didn't run it for an extended period. There might be something building up over time. How long is "after some time", approximately?
Usually a few hours I think. Ill try to test it and get more specific.
Also 2025/08/06 17:04:43 INFO menu method TRAY_DEBUG=1 name=GetLayout parentID=0 propertyNames=[] is getting logged every second. That stops too if the issue occurs.
I am also not sure if the problem only occurs if the System was in standby for an hour or something like that.
When it is asleep for just a short amount of time, it still works.
Thanks for the help :)
I tested it again and the Problem occurred after a little bit more than 2h :) Standby changed nothing (In this Test the machine did not enter sleepmode)

Did you find anything or were you able to reproduce this?
