KDE's Kicker Menu Typing Search Stopped Working
Per the title of the thread, KDE menu plasmoid Kicker has a search bar that I used to type the name of the application into to find and launch some application.
Example: Click on "K"->"type to search"->myth That should return the mythfrontend icon for launch. Typing in the search box does nothing. Is there a way to reset kicker back to "first run" default? I tried apt-get install --reinstall plasma-runners-addons kdeplasma-addons-data kdeplasma-addons I'm on Debian Testing, no fancy repository magic. KDE Desktop is 5.6 (??) straight from Debian's repo. |
There is no KDE 5.6. There is Plasma 5 that sits on KDE 4.x.x

Is KDE kicker the applications menu on the bottom left corner on a default desktop or the top center drop-down thing? When I hit the K key it drops the menu from the top like the attached photo.
If your talking about the application menu on the bottom-left corner, then you can try removing and reading the menu launcher. To do this: right-click the panel, Panel Options, Panel Settings, then right-click Application menu, and select remove Application Menu. Then re-add it by right-clicking the panel, Panel Options, +Add Widgets, type the word "menu" and the Application Menu will come up which you can double click to add to panel. Then you can move it back to where you want it. See |
Final answer to this was to use XFCE as a desktop and to purge anything and everything related to KDE in a terminal. I then cleaned up any orphan settings in my home directory. Rebooted and reinstalled "apt-get install kde-full"
It probably ended up being too many changes in testing. |
