[opensuse-factory] Unable to use Plasma
Hi all, Since a couple of TW-snapshots I am unable to use PLasma. That is, if I login on PLasma, I get a brief moment the the green light bulb, then it disappears, and I am left with the large blueish hexagons that forms the background of the login screen. If I switch to - for example - tty1, and then back, the screen is black, but I can paint it back to the hexagons screen with the mouse. Plasmashell is running on my user account. Login using Icewm does work. Login on Plasma as another user works too, which led me to removing .kde and .kde4, but that doesn't help. Graphical hardware is from Nvidia, and I have the nvidia rpm's from TW installed (after uninstalling Nvidia's own driver). But some nouveau stuff still resides on my system, and I seem unable to get rid of it; see my posting almost a week ago, "Refusing to install Mesa-dri-nouveau aborts install process". There are more issues (multi-monitors doesn't work anymore, no configuration tool for the graphical environment), but I'd like to start here. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org

1. The configuration files for KDE Plasma 5 do no longer live in .kde or .kde4, but in ~/.config. 2. Try moving/deleting plasma* in the ~/.config folder. This only resets the desktop to default. Do this when no logged in on Plasma5 3. Try deleting ~/.local/share/kscreen whilst not logged in. -- Gertjan Lettink, a.k.a.

Thanks for the info. I suppose I can permanently remove those folders?

Did that, but it makes no difference.

Try "mkinitrd && reboot" (without quotes). This helped me. Doesn't make a difference here...
