Is this still an issue in 11.2 or can it be closed?

Cheers Steve

Yes, same result -- it serves a black screen. I'm using a different computer from 11.1 so it's not the hardware per se. I looked at the log and it fails with a different message that the failures in 11.1. Here's the death rattle from the log in 11.2 just now: =======================================log extract============= startkde: Starting up... kdeinit4: preparing to launch /usr/lib64/libkdeinit4_klauncher.so kdeinit4: Communication error with launcher.
