Does it boot to graphical in recovery mode?

yes but appears no window manager is running. There is no trim on the single xterm window present.

And, if I drop to ttyX leaving runlevel 5, I cannot start say icewm: /usr/bin/icewm -- :1

It reports: IceWM: Can't open display: <none>. X must be running and $DISPLAY set.

but in the "failsafe" runlevel 5 login, the xterm window provides ":0".

presently have openbox-kde running in :1 (tty3).

I can start konsole in the failsave xterm window but cannot make it current, cannot type in it. I can mouse click there and get menues. I can start a larger xterm instance and it becomes current and am able to type into it.

In the xterm window of the failsafe session I can get a window manager running, "kwin --replace" (--replace probably not necessary). I then have trim and am able to move the windows around and access konsole, konqueror, ..., but no taskbar, .... -- (paka)Patrick Shanahan Plainfield, Indiana, USA @ptilopteri http://en.opensuse.org openSUSE Community Member facebook/ptilopteri http://wahoo.no-ip.org Photo Album: http://wahoo.no-ip.org/gallery2 Registered Linux User #207535 @ http://linuxcounter.net -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
