While qoverview-config-server
is running, open the QDBusViewer app (probably already installed on Neon).
Scroll down and select the org.qoverview.config
from the list on the left. Then expand the list on the right as shown:
And double-click the Method: get_background
.
Report any output (either in the qoverview-config-server
output or the QDBusViewer app output (The rectangle that is displaying Connected to DBus.
in the screenshot)).
For me, it returns the background image, like this:
Here is the screen shot:
Here is the terminal output:

For reference I had to install qt4-dev-tools
to enable qdbusviewer
Try:
$ cd /usr/lib/qoverview
$ python3
>>> confsrv = __import__('config-server')
>>> print(confsrv._get_background())

Strange. The _get_background()
should have detected KDE's background wallpaper…
KDE version? Any multi-monitors with different wallpapers, etc?

Well, your plasma config doesn't have a desktop wallpaper configured!
But surely you have a desktop wallpaper, so why is Plasma not storing it in the config?
Its whatever the default wallpaper is:
So you are correct when I just change it to some random wall paper there are no errors and I see an overview
I do have a question however, when i search the overview for dolphin for example, typing dolphin
and hitting enter doesn't do anything, i actually have to click on the dolphin icon. Is this expected? Is there anyway to launch the application by hitting enter or is that a design limitation?
I'm closing this, but I'll probably open a bug for this over at KDE.
Also, sorry, I missed your comment about pressing Enter ... I'll need some time to implement it...
As you suggested in the other issue I went through the process again:
However I am still getting the same error
If I run qoverview from a different location (such as my home dir) I get the following stack:
