That's the fallback DM, meaning KDM is not starting. Maybe the upgrade changed DISPLAYMANAGER in /etc/sysconfig/displaymanager? Did you reboot after the upgrade? I always reboot even if there is no message stating that there are some running files which need to be restarted. Did DISPLAYMANAGER get changed? Do you mean kdm? If you do it is not even installed.
BC Basil,
Please install kscreen from Factory to ensure the KDE session will start.
I started the computer a few minutes ago to begin the daily "grind" (:-) ) and zypper showed that there were quite a number of updates to install. After the installation and rebooting the system I found that kscreen got installed by this lot of updtates - BUT I still had the same bland login screen as in my initial post. I must have a KDE session as Desktop Effects etc all work as normal.
However what do you mean with kdm is not installed ? Which displaymanager are you using instead of kdm ?
To be honest I really don't know! kdm is definitely NOT installed but it must have been when I first installed 12.3 and later KDE 4.10.05 because I had no hassles before I did the upgrade to 4.11 in Factory. The 'dup --from..' must have removed kdm but did not replace it with the new version for 4.11. (I also checked in my 12.2 installation and kdm is installed there.) Will now try and install kdm and see what happens.
