Re: [opensuse-kde] Re: Strange KDE 4.6.2 and 11.4 Upgrade Experience
* ka1ifq <ka1ifq@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> [04-25-11 16:03]:

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".

I installed 11.4 x86_64 via the net-install cd onto a new box and added
repos:
KDE_Extra
KDE_Extra_46
KDE_Release_46
Packman Repository

did "zypper ref; zypper -v dup; SuSEconfig; ldconfig; zypper -v ps"

and was good-to-go.
