In the provided forum thread, the culprit seems to have been that /tmp
was full. Can you confirm that this is actually not the cause?
@timor I don't have that state anymore. However, the software should be able to cope with that situation.
I don't have that state anymore.
Was it reproducible when you had it? What did you do that you don't have it anymore?
I rolled back.
Ah ok. I am asking because I also have seen this behavior recently, but only once. In my case, after restarting display-manager, it was gone, so I was assuming a transient problem due to automatic upgrade of my system.
Hi all,
I got the same issue with the screen locker. Running a watch on the system journal on a second console while triggering a screen lock gives the following in the log

Mar 01 17:24:19 nixos xsession[1142]: Cannot mix incompatible Qt library (version 0x50b01) with this library (version 0x50b03)
The last line seems to be interesting, might be some version conflict in Qt libraries between the screen locker and the rest of Plasma. As I'm quite a newbie to NixOS, i've not found yet in which packages to dig around, but maybe those lines above could give someone else a hint where to dig deeper.
@chris81 There are a number of issues related to a recent Qt update. This smells like a similar issue, and should also be able to be resolved that way, see #55994.
@timor, thanks for the hints. Searching for old qt packages like in #55994 solved the issue. Seems that I had some manually installed packages in the profile of root. Strange that the packages of root seep through to my normal user.

Yes, I was also surprised when I found out. Couldn't find any documentation on it, either. Supposedly the intended behavior is that root can modify the system (for everyone) in a non-declarative manner. If you look at your PATH
variable, you can see that this takes priorty over /run/current-system/...
stuff.
A combination of the above solutions worked for me.
systemctl restart display-manager.service
and removing every package installed via nix-env.
Thanks for the information.
