Plasma task bar disappears after closing laptop lid #40

Closed croemheld closed 1 year ago

croemheld commented 1 year ago

Your instructions helped me dealing with a lot of issues during my time setting up KDE Plasma and i3! Unfortunately, once I close my laptop lid one time after booting, the Plasma task bar disappears completely and does not show up again. Windows that were open on my primary screen are now filling the empty space left by the task bar, so I believe it is either hidden or completely deactivated.

Do you have any idea as to what causes this behavior?

It somehow seems this issue was not directly related to KDE, instead I followed the instructions from here. Doing this also fixes the task bar issue.
