Known issues in the Plasma 5.9 release.
Freezes Using Qt 5.6.0
When using Qt 5.6.0 Plasma loads itself incompletely and with long delays. Deadlocks occur in kded5. Use Qt 5.6.1 or Qt 5.7.1 instead.
Plasma Discover With Qt 5.7.1
Discover 375083 crashes with Qt 5.7, use Qt 5.7.1 instead.
Intel GPUs
We recommend the Xorg modesetting DDX for use with Intel hardware. This is the default in many distributions nowadays. Using the Intel Xorg DDX can result in various graphical glitches and freezes.

Configuration changes
Environment variables and shutdown scripts are now sourced from ~/.config/plasma-workspace/env and ~/.config/plasma-workspace/shutdown, respectively. Existing scripts from Plasma 4 should be moved there.
