For later on, once you're back working again:
Next time you do an install, leave some notes in the /root homespace
about what you've done. I think the installation routine leaves a
couple of files about the install in there, itself. And I write some
post installation notes about any extra packages I add.
Since I only use root for installing stuff, there's only three files in
there, and they can't get messed with during normal logins (e.g. they
can't get accidentally deleted).
Thank-you. There have been a few times I wish I had done that.
I also use root for installing, patching, and upgrading.
I could not find any files as you described left in root's home by dnf
or yum. Am I looking in the correct place? What should the file name
be?
Read Tim's comment again. "He" wrote the notes in a file. Not dnf or
another process.
The basis for my question was the sentence "I think the installation
routine leaves a couple of files about the install in there, itself.".
But I might easily be misunderstanding what Tim means by "the
installation routine".
BTW, have you tried plasma on wayland again?
Not since last night. Will try again now as per your next paragraph.
You may want to do something like "journalctl -b 0 | grep wayland" to
see if you find anything
of interest. It may be best to do this just after booting and trying to
start a wayland session
so as to make sure you've go the right time frame.
A few minutes ago, I rebooted. There is only one plasma option in the
menu: "Plasma". I chose that and completed the login.
bash.1[~]: su -
Password:
-bash.1[~]: journalctl -b 0 | grep wayland
-bash.2[~]: env | grep -i wayland
-bash.3[~]:
While my first priority is wayland in gnome, I definitely do want:
* wayland in plasma (when it's available and the default for plasma);
* to retain gnome on Xorg; and
* to retain plasma on xorg
as fall-backs. This week certainly taught me the value of fall-backs.
I was glad I still had windows-7 (slow, cumbersome, and bad as it is) on
this workstation. And I do occasionally use plasma.
