After the latest update of KDE Neon (5.11.5) I get a login screen (non-graphical). After logging in I enter the command ´startkde' and then I get the message 'Display is not set or cannot connect to the x server'. On entering śtartx' the screen turns black while showing the mousepointer. It also showed the KDE logo for a short while when turning black. I suspect it is a problem with the video card. My video card is a Nvidia GeForce GTX 550 Ti. Please don;t tell me to buy another one. My system is AMD 6-core. Advice from your side please.
run startplasma manually and get the output If it's a driver issue we don't touch those in Neon but that seems unlikely if ksplash is showing

Created attachment 109925 [details] attachment-20284-0.html Good day to you mr. Riddell, I've updated the system again by pkcon refresh; pkcon update. Now an error showed: (pkcon: 1558) - GLib-CRITICAL **: Source ID 111 was not found when attempting to remove it Might be a clue to my problem. At startup I get a black screen showing 'KDE 5.11.5' and a progressbar at the bottom runing from left to right. After that a logon prompt also in a black screen. By the way: am I the only one having this problem? Kind regards, H.
