What I did this morning was
1) installing latest updates (via apper-plasmoid) 2) log out of KDE 3) log in to console 4) sudo zypper ps, which listed kdm 5) sudo systemctl restart xdm.service
Is KDM at this moment still working ?
At least I have a running KDE session. I do not think this would be possible without kdm (or a different display manager) working, so I would say "yes" to that.
If yes, then why would restart it ? Just because zypper ps shows that the kdm package was updated through zypper ?
That was the initial reason, yes. Now I also want to find out what is happening here and why it is not working anymore. The systemclt restart xdm.service used to work flawlessly since recently.
As you indicated you are still on openSUSE 12.3, which had one of the first systemd implementations and I know that quite some improvements were made with 13.1. As far as I remember the display-manager service was also introduce only with 13.1
I see. And I just noticed that 12.3 will reach end of life in 10 days. So maybe it is time to upgrade. Regards mararm -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kde+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-kde+owner@opensuse.org
