Uhable to logout of KDE Plasma as expected after Dec 12 updated.
by camorri from LinuxQuestions.org on (#5BN4X)
I have tested this on four separate installs of Slackware64 full install after the December 12th updated.
I can log into a Plasma ( not Wayland ) session, all operates as expected. When I click on Log Out, after a few seconds, I see the loading screen appear as if Plasma is re-loading, and I am not logged out.
I am a long time XFCE user, however, I wanted to give KDE another try.
If I hit Ctrl + Alt + backspace, killing the xserver, I can thn log into XFCE, and all is normal there. I can log out of XFCE without any problem.
My questions, how to diagnose? I did switch to TTY2, loged in as user, and ran 'ps aux | grep kde' after the failure, and saw KDEinit process running, after the log out.
For the record, I ran: slackpkg update, slackpkg install-new, slackpkg upgrade-all, and slackpkg clean-system.
I rsync the slackware-tree to one system and upgrade from there.
The other irregularity I remember, was after the initial upgrade, I could not log into XFCE, I had to run xwmconfig to get access. Not sure if that is related of not.
Any one else see behaviour like this?
