Hi,
Three days ago I did a dnf system upgrade to apply all available
Fedora updates. I have now tried to start Plasma under Xorg, but it now
refuses to start with a crash in ksplashqml, and if I press
ctrl-alt-delete to try to logout the ksmserver-greeter also crashes.
Plasma under Wayland runs quite happily albeit without resolution
scaling. Gnome under Wayland runs fine without scaling and Gnome under
Xorg also runs fine. How do I determine why the apps are failing with
Plasma under Xorg now?
Fwiw, I believe this is being tracked by this bug:

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1919696

What video driver do you use?
Are you using autologin feature?

I ask because a good number of folks I've heard from so far are using vmware
and/or autologin.  I've personally been unable to reproduce it.
Thanks Rex. I am using Vmware to run Fedora. I'm not sure what driver I'm using because like with the display manager I'm using, I've forgotten the command to find out as I don't use it all the time. My issue is slightly different to the bug in that I am using gdm, and I am getting popups about apps getting segmentation faults. I did notice in the bug report that a patch had been developed and someone reporting that it fixed his issue, and I've noticed this morning that there are more updates, so they may have released the patch, and if so I'll see if it rectifies my issue as well.

regards,
Steve
