            Bug ID: 1079931
           Summary: login leads to white screen after "Starting X Display
                    manager"
    Classification: openSUSE
           Product: openSUSE Tumbleweed
           Version: Current
          Hardware: Other
                OS: Other
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P5 - None
         Component: KDE Workspace (Plasma)
          Assignee: opensuse-kde-bugs@opensuse.org

After updating using the Software Updates widget, on a Lenovo T420 and a Lenovo
T460s, I can no longer boot into a usable KDE desktop environment. From the
boot menu, selecting any kernel version (4.15? and 4.14?) and either recovery
or not, leads to a white screen with cursor. The last console message I can
read before the white screen is "Starting X Display manager". 

With a fresh install using Tumbleweed from 2017-11-08 on the T460s, upgrading
using zypper dist-upgrade results in a KDE desktop that is missing the taskbar,
and the shortct ALT-F1, which normally brings up the application menu, does
nothing. 

I need both these computers in a usable state, so if there is any information I
can provide quickly before reinstalling, let me know.
