Re: [opensuse-kde] Re: Strange KDE 4.6.2 and 11.4 Upgrade Experience

Patrick,

Is there an official way to do the update?

I put together a test system and wish to do the upgrade, still too chicken to update my desktop system.

Tnx, Mike.

The issue found was the following: An install/update scriptlet modified /etc/sysconfig/windowmanager, and set an invalid "DEFAULT_WM", it was set to "kde4" (false), instead of "startkde" (right).

This does not appear to be the origin of the problem as my "DEFAULT_WM" is set to "kde4" and I do not have the problem. I also do not have "kde4" listed as a WM, but "kde4 Plasma".

...

repeat correct entry: DEFAULT_WM="startkde"

works, but is a "work-a-round" rather than a "solution".
