Ok, Good. :-)
I can do this in tty on that machine or thru temrinal on my macbook. I've even run init 6 via remote terminal to restart the machine, works fine.
The system is up and running, and has been. That "logitechmediaserver" rpm is managed thru http://localhost:9000, that's the only display built in, so I don't see that that would be a problem. And it is working fine.
I haven't done the rest of your suggestions below yet. I will shortly, but wanted to relay this. The desktop is up (and has been). Previous widgets are there and working. I can right click on the desktop and select the options present, and those work. From there I can open Dolphin, or select 'Leave' to logoff, restart etc, all of which work fine.
Its just that when I click specifically on the Start gecko, I get the following bubble popup message just over the start gecko right where the menu should be:
Error loading QML file: file:///usr/share/ plasma/plasmoids/org.kde.plasma.kicker/ contents/ui/main.qml27.1: module "org.kde.plasma.private.kicker" is not installed
Ok, then I would switch to any other desktop except plasma till all other quirks are ironed out or someone finds how to solve that particular problem.
OK, how do I switch to another desktop, and install one if needed?
When you are at the login screen, after selecting your name, there will be somewhere to click and select another desktop. zypper pt lists the available patterns. There is "xfce" for instance. Or "lxqt". But XFCE is totally different from plasma, so in your case, probably better. I think: zypper install -t pattern xfce would install xfce. -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R.
