If with update-alternatives I have default on plasma, it causes popup window reporting kglobalaccel5 segfault. Dismissal produces a ksplashqml segfault report. Dismissal leaves a black screen with mouse pointer and nothing else. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

So in theory it should try to start the command in the Exec line of plasma5.desktop, which would be /usr/bin/startplasma-x11 Not sure why it would ever try to use the command of the Exec line of default.desktop, which I guess would be /usr/bin/startice. But on icewm of Leap 15.4 it seems to be /usr/bin/icewm-session. Now I'm confused. I can't find a startice command on my system. Whatever I suggest to try this icewm command as well in your simple xterm. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

Using your own scripts located in /usr/local/bin makes no sense, when already running on a Xserver, since they'll try to run another Xserver with startx.
I only use my startice script from a multi-user boot, or to start an additional X session on :1 after there's already a running session on :0. "Starting in multi-user.target, startx /usr/bin/startice produces a normally working session" in comment #0 is a typo. s/bin\/startice/bin\/startx/. /usr/bin/startice doesn't exist. /usr/local/bin/startice does exist.
Is this the image you tried?
No. Quoting comment #0: "## installation is a zypper dup from an unpreserved 15.4." Before comment #6 I tried to reproduce on a different PC that had had TDM installed along with Plasma and IceWM. I couldn't reproduce by switching to XDM from TDM with update-alternatives, so I uninstalled TDM, and still could not reproduce. Just now I completed another zypper dup from 15.4 to 15.5 on a different PC, used update-alternatives to switch defaults to XDM and IceWM (from KDM3 & KDE3), and it too works as expected: # inxi -Saz --vs --zl --hostname inxi 3.3.25-00 (2023-02-07) System: Host: ab85m Kernel: 5.14.21-150500.39-default arch: x86_64 bits: 64 compiler: gcc v: 7.5.0 parameters: BOOT_IMAGE=/boot/vmlinuz root=LABEL=<filter> noresume ipv6.disable=1 net.ifnames=0 mitigations=auto consoleblank=0 video=1440x900@60 Desktop: IceWM v: 1.4.2 info: icewmtray vt: 7 dm: XDM Distro: openSUSE Leap 15.5 Alpha -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
