it'll be your graphic drivers. Can I see your ~/.xsession-errors file. Then reopen this bug. marking as needs info *** Bug 356262 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** Created attachment 95888 [details]
.xsession-errors
Attaching .xsession-errors. Looking at the end of it it seems to be the same error messages I saw after hitting cntrl-alt-backspace to kill the xession, but for some reason the date on the file is Sep 12 2010
Provided .xsession-errors Yeah, this log is all from plasma 4. Clearly your display manager is not writing to this file anymore. Are you using SDDM? I guess Fedora have fiddled with it. What is SDDM? Display manager I'm actually logging in on a tty and running startx to start the X server. I do that because in the past if I had X server problems I had no way to log in and fix them. I want the output of that then. Created attachment 95892 [details]
Stderr from startx
Attached stderr. There wasn't anything in stdout except "GOT SIGHUP" > Xlib: extension "GLX" missing on display ":0".
Please try reinstalling your graphics driver, you have likely a broken configuration.
You were right. Installing a different nvidia driver fixed the problem of KDE not starting up. Now that I am past that I'm very disappointed. All my desktop settings are gone. My widgets are gone. My panels are gone. I can't get the desktop pager to work on the new panel. The clock for some reason only displays time in UTC (I was eventually able to fix this). Why is KDE always one step forward one step sideways and one step back? |
