Theme cannot be loaded

#1 Post by klesk »

Hello community,
After an update issue I’m not able to access anymore due “the current theme cannot be loaded due error below” see the attached pic to see the error. Your help is really grateful.

I just installed it on Bullseye out of interest and it seems fine although I may prefer the default Breeze-Dark. The install routine popped up a password box when it came to installing the SDDM theme so it seems that is where yours fails. Try reverting to default Breeze-Dark in System Settings> Global Theme> Get New Global Themes, uninstall Breeze-Noir-Dark then reinstall it.
Otherwise open an issue at https://github.com/L4ki/Breeze-Noir-Dark

That makes things complicated. You may have to fix it from a console login. Probably what you may need to do is download all the theme files from Github and replace them.
I see the theme is very actively developed and has had 3 updates just this month. If one of those updates caused this issue I'm sure the developer would like to know so again I suggest you open an issue on Github.

I would have just reverted to the system backup I did before installing a new theme but I guess you don't have a backup.

Not sure if this helps but here is a list of all the sddm files I could find for the theme. Probably you just need to replace the ones in sddm folder with files from the Github download (get the zip file). This is probably overkill as only a couple of files need to be replaced. You could also try deleting ~/.cache/plasma_theme_Breeze-Noir-Dark_v6.6.kcache but that's a long shot. And it may not even be one of these files causing the issue but the only other alternative I can think of is to reinstall your system. Someone else may have a better idea and have more experience with unruly themes.

Code: Select all

Really thanks for your attention. Now the situation is this:
After an sources list update I’m stopping at kwin closure and no way to run it and start kde.
Any ideas as to fix kwin(I already tried to remove and reinstall it)

Are you not able to start KDE at all? Are you running Bullseye (Stable)?

We have may have run into the same issue in that case :lol: I'm on Testing (which should be close enough in version number) and I cannot start a KDE Plasma session at all. I made a thread about it too.
I wonder if this is a general bug.

That's your problem then. Plasma 5.23 was just uploaded to Sid yesterday and may not yet be complete. Do a full-upgrade:

Code: Select all

apt full-upgrade
There is more info about that on siduction forum.
You should always mention if you are running a development release ie. Testing or Sid, otherwise we assume you are running Stable as most people do. This problem doesn't exist in Stable.

I really don’t know how I fall into testing release, there is a chance to switch into stable? Anyway I did a full-upgrade but still not working “kwin_x11” doesn’t work with unexpectedly stop.
