Did something fairly stupid.
Needed to make some simple modifications to a .pdf document very quickly - the .pdf rendered poorly in OO Draw. Saw a post that said "Krita" rendered .pdf's better and decided I'd try it - via YAST.
As soon as I clicked the Krita box in YAST I entered dependency hell. I accepted three series of additional packages to install to solve dependency. Amazingly, it finally came up "clean" of dependency issues and I installed Krita.
As soon as I started Krita my plasma desktop crashed and I got this message:Executable: kdeinit4 PID: 13179 Signal: 11 (Segmentation fault) and the remaining desktop was some odd looking Gnome type screen.
I logged out and tried to log back in. First in KDE4 then in KDE4 safe mode. Both times with the same results. I tried a hard re-boot, same result. I logged back in with XFCE and everything appeared to be fine, except that it was XFCE - not KDE4 with plasma - which unlike many here - I really like!
Any hints on how to get KDE4 / Plasma back ?
thanks
ps. Krita really did render the .pdf quite well!
Look in the file /var/log/zypp/history, the package installation history. If you could identify the packages that were installed/removed with krita (probably at the bottom, look at the timestamp) and report back we should be able to figure out the offending package.

I'll probably get shouted upon, but try adding "solver.allowVendorChange = true" to /etc/zypp/zypp.conf and then run "zypper -v up". This might fix the inconsistencies between the KDE4 packages.
