Hello,

In the Message;

This can be done in a virtual console, which is the usual way;

At the login screen;

1. Ctrl+Alt+F1 key OK

2. Log in as root OK

3. Execute

# init 3 OK but took over a minute to complete

4. Ctrl+Alt+F2 key OK

5. Log in as root, again OK

6. Exucute

$ startplasma-x11 > /tmp/plasama.log 2>&1 OK

Then, check the plasma.log.

marcslaptop:~> cat /tmp/plasma.log $DISPLAY is not set or cannot connect to the X server. Again no joy, I tried this with and without setting export DISPLAY="${DISPLAY:-:0}" in my /home/marc/.bashrc file and it made no difference. I also noted that /root does not have a .bashrc file, should I create one for root logins? Thanks again for your time, thoughts, and help. Marc..
