Well actually it is KDM problems. KDM seems to need KDE4. See the thread on KDE4/Qt4 removal. Well the KDM I have needs KDE4. Even though I'm using "5" or KF5 as much as possible. But KDM seems problematic. maybe its a repository problems. The basic OS is 42.3. Along the way I keep trying to use SDDM instead, but despite library updates and SDDM updates I hit the same problem The login screen comes up with my name there asking for password. But if I adjust anything, try altering any of the pull-downs or try typing in the password everything freezes. Nothing work, no way to input or delete or pull-down. Cursor moves but nothing works. no way to log in. NOTHING. I have to go to a VT term and change /etc/sysconfig/display to lightdm or xdm and reboot. Looking that the processes on the hot-keyed VT: no SDDM isn't in a spin loop, its just frozen. Frustrating as I don't even know what to look for next. Why shouldn't it work? I can imagine kedeinit failing and bumping back to the login manager, but this isn't that. It SDDM *freezing*.
