Last weekend I updated tde to version R14.0.8. From that moment the system becomes progressively slow until it becomes unusable. Frequent application crashes. Kicker crashes every time I change virtual desktop. Ubuntu 16.04 on LTSP. It's an unusual configuration, I think it's very difficult to investigate and I'd rather go back to the previous version. How can I do that? I enclose what I was able to get on a crash.

Hi Rodolfo, the changes between R14.0.6 and R14.0.8 are not so significant to justify such strange behavior. It is likely the problems you are experiencing are caused by some other reasons. Perhaps an incomplete/partial upgrade? Just speculating here, but definitely R14.0.6 to R14.0.8 should not result in such major issues.
Hope this helps. Cheers Michele

Definitely not this. I checked the dpkg log. There are no graphic updates in the last 2 months (driver, mesa, etc.).

That trace has mentions of swrast_dri.so all over it. Apparently, that's the OpenGL software renderer. If you have a standard Intel, AMD, or nVidia video card chipset, that isn't the renderer you should be using. In addition, it looks like the error might be coming from the screensaver.
Server with nVidia, client with Intel. Both without proprietary drivers.
Try reinstalling OpenGL and/or your video card drivers (if you're using an external driver such as the proprietary nVidia one). Alternatively, turning off the compositor and the screensaver within TDE (Control Center -> Desktop -> Window Behaviour -> Translucency and Control Center -> Appearance & Themes -> Screen Saver) might help somewhat if that is indeed the problem.
I've already taken off all kinds of animation, fading, etc. I don't have screen savers installed. I use the black screen.
Can you tell me what the KDE appearance configuration files are? I'd try renaming them to see if it depends on some changes.

Many of the config files are in ~/.trinity/share/config .
This should help you find what’s been changed recently:
# cd
1 day ago # find .trinity -type f -mtime -1 -exec ls -al {} ; # find .trinity -newermt $(date +%Y-%m-%d -d '1 day ago') -type f -iname "*rc"
1 min ago # find .trinity -type f -mmin -1 -exec ls -al {} ;
There’s also a older than, but less than date method, but you’ll need to search for it (not in my notes).
Best, Michael

Or I might be barking up the wrong tree altogether . . .
