I upgraded from Fedora 38 to Fedora 39 on an AMD Ryzen 5 5600 with Nvidia Geforce RTX 3050 graphics card. I'm running KDE Plasma-X11, not Wayland. I tried to install the GPU drivers several ways using repos/RPMs, but was not successful. I am using the Nvidia proprietary drivers. They support dual monitors with no problems; I've had problems with the nouveau driver and dual monitors in the past. I start the system in multi-user (CLI) mode and then run "startx" to start X11 and Plasma. (I started doing this in F38 because of sddm hanging, which I was not able to resolve.) When I log in with my user account and run startx, I get a black screen (extending across both monitors) with an X cursor. The cursor moves in response to the mouse, but neither left or right mouse button do anything. I can get to an alternate console using alt-F3 and kill the login. I have discovered a bit of a rain dance to get a working system. I can log in as root, run startx, and get a working KDE Plasma-X11 screen. Then I log out to the sddm screen and log in again with my user account. After this, everything (or almost everything) works correctly. I've checked the system logs and the Xorg log for any error or warning messages, but nothing looks incorrect or at all informative. Does anyone have any suggestions or insights into this problem? -- Michael Eager -- _______________________________________________ users mailing list -- users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to users-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Do not reply to spam, report it: https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure/new_issue
