I also saw online where it said to created a boot disk of the newest version of tumbleweed boot from it and run repair. This reinstalled the system files and deleted repos i added and went to default repos. However it didnt resolve the issue. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

You can also check if it's something with the root account trying to open the graphical desktop that you started as a non-root user:
sudo zypper in yast2-widget-demo yast2 widget_demo
I just now realized that there are some Qt apps that also do not work as well as some that do SuSE-Tumbleweed:/home/hoi # wireshark ** (wireshark:144402) 21:40:55.512396 [GUI CRITICAL] -- This application failed to start because no Qt platform plugin could be initialized.

The yast2 gui appears. Im not sure why this is or how to fix. any help would be appreciated and may help other users https://forums.opensuse.org/t/help-cannot-start-any-apps-from-terminal/4834/... (now my issue is that when i try to launch the program, in this case yast2 from the desktop as normal user I get the dialog box for the root password, after I put in the password the yast2 gui fails to appear) also when do use su from command prompt and then launch the program, after I close the yast2 gui I get this message: SuSE-Tumbleweed:/home/hoi # yast2 QStandardPaths: runtime directory '/run/user/1000' is not owned by UID 0, but a directory permissions 0700 owned by UID 1000 GID 475 -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
