Dear list readers,
today i installed openSUSE Tumbleweed20190824-0 on this machine:
Intel® Core™ i7-4790K CPU @ 4.00GHz Memory: 31,3 GiB Intel Xeon E3-1200 v3/4th Gen Core Processor Integrated Graphics Controller Samsung SSD 850 PRO 256GB (pre-partitioned with GPT, pre-formatted but otherwise empty)
This is where i changed the defaults of the installer
Language + Keyboard Layout: German Network Settings: skipped System Role: Desktop with KDE Plasma Expert Partitioner - Start with existing Partitions => ESP (fat32), /(ext4), home(ext4) Clock and TimeZone: no changes made Local User: created with Automatic Login and Use this password for system Administrator both disabled Authentification for System Administrator: provided Installer Settings: selected Software Software Selection and System Tasks: selcted Details... on next screen: selected menu item Dependencies and disabled Install recommended packages pressed Accept and got presented with a list of packages to be installed pressed OK and was back to Installer Settings pressed Install
On reboot i was presented with a commandline login.
journalctl -b0 -p3 showed no errors except Couldn't get size: 0x80...0e + MODSIGN: Couldn't get UEFI db list (i see these errors on other openSUSE systems where they do no harm)
Yast2 shows X is installed
startkde gives $DISPLAY not set or cannot connect to the X server
startx fails with command not found
hwinfo --gfxcard says i915 is active
lsmod shows i915 is loaded
So my question is
Is an installation without recommended packages by definition an installation without graphical desktop or did i make a mistake while installing?
Which packages do i need to install (however, i would not like to install all recommended packages)?
Thank you very much for your help.
Regards
Hagen
export DISPLAY=:0; startkde Does that work?
I can set the DISPLAY variable (env will show it) but startkde still complains "$DISPLAY not set or cannot connect to the X server"
Also: login as root, do yast You'll see the ncurses version. in System > Services manager check that the default target is 'graphical.target'
The default target is set to 'graphical.target'.
Thanks for your answer to my post.
Regards
Hagen And what happens ( if you're up to it ) if you do sudo zypper ref sudo zypper inr sudo reboot ?
Are you on a btrfs filesystem, snapshots enabled? If so, it would be easy to rollback if that doesn't work either
But if he isn't it will put his system permanently into exactly the state he does not want!!!! -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-support+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-support+owner@opensuse.org
