Hello Patrick:
I just tried this and there are 2 things and I did the following based on your recommendation:
1) Boot to Linux, see plasma login screen
2) Hot key to a console, check to see if the offending file exists and remove it as follows:
2a) Log in as root
2b) ls /usr/lib/systemd/user/sockets.target.wants/dbus.socket
2c) rm /usr/lib/systemd/user/sockets.target.wants/dbus.socket
3) Hot key back to the plasma window
4) Log in
So that resolved the problem in this e-mail, but it also appears to allow me to login to my wireless network. I rebooted and the offending /usr/lib/systemd/user/sockets.target.wants/dbus.socket was not recreated.
While I can't prove it, I think I typed my password correctly on the initial log in attempt both on the initial and follow up test, but it was rejected. I got in on the 1st retry on each test.
This is a huge improvement, I'll comment on https://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1020363.

Hello All:
I'm experiencing an inconvenience with plasma in OpenSuse Tumbleweed with recent updates (as of this morning, 10/29/2017). The symptom I see is when I enter my password into plasma the plasma screen hangs, but the mouse cursor is responsive. I cannot enter text in the password form, nor does clicking on any of the icons trigger a response. Unlike https://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1056950, I am able to hot key into a console window. After I do init 3, and then init 5 I can log in. After logging in the network connection does not work (but that was reported in a different e-mail to this list).
Have other people experienced this recently, is there a known work around, or is this a known problem? What logs would help diagnose this (I need to boot into windows to post here, so any journalctl guidance would help)?
Sorry to post so many e-mails, but I'm trying to keep to one issue per e-mail and I apologize if this is redundant but a previous attempt to post this may have been blocked due to http content, trying plaintext this time.
