Startx command not found debian 93/11/2023 I can easily imagine 24+ hours for some because of qtwebengine. After that, KDE did work but my approach could lead to a very long recompilation time for many, I'm just lucky enough that it only took me about 2.5 hours. Unfortunately, the solution that worked for me (basically uninstalling/re-installing all kde-pasma/* and kde-apps/*)was a shotgun approach. I changed the subject back to "NOT solved" in hopes that others will be able to help you. I tried to find the solution for two days without any result. Maybe, some relevant packages or configuration are missing, but I cannot understand where the problem is. My installation is based on "plasma-desktop" instead than "plasma-meta" as it was before upgrading. I reinstalled the overall plasma environment, but nothing changed and I have always the same behaviour. With this setting, a graphical environment starts with startx command, but it seems to not be a KDE environment it seems a simple X session without any kde object (menu, bars, wallpaper, and also splash screen at its starting). xinitrc as written in the wiki (and suggested in the forum). I also experienced problems with plasma upgrading to 5.17.4Īfter the upgrade, startkde disappeared and I substituted it with startplasma-x11 into. Could we put in startx or *somewhere* a dead link check? Could we have had some warning? xinitrc now points at nothing never makes it to the user. The fact that KDE changed how it starts up and the. In my case leaving a whole bunch of keyboard related warnings that were a red herring I followed for hours. xinitrc - startkdeĪnd there's no error message. This was a really dirty trick of an upgrade, to break a major subsystem with no warning! If I type startkde I at least ~ $ startkdeĪnd that would be an aha that would have gotten me somewhere, but because it's buried in the chain of startx. Note to devs: I found this thread AFTER I had already figured it out for myself. In any case, while I haven't done a lot of testing, kde is started and looks normal. I am not sure why it seemed weird the first time I tried using that command instead of startkde. Of course reinstalling (which is in progress now) is going to take some time. I supposed it may have worked but simply looked different leading me to believe it wasn't the good ol' kde I am accustomed to. Once I get everything re-emerged I will give that a try again, although like I said the first try earlier today did not produce what I was expecting. I now do see the reference to startplasma-x11. īackend.cpp:92:2: warning: #warning TODO - this error message is about as useful as a cooling unit in the arctic Startplasma-x11 is definitely what you are searching for. It will install the same files all over again. Re-installing packages does nothing in your case. I don't see how they could have made this change without a huge red flashing news item. Basically, I'm going back to before I installed kde as specified in the gentoo kde wiki. Next I'm going to re-emerge plasma-meta and kde-apps-meta. This is removing a huge boatload of packages. I have deleted all kde-* and plasma lines from my /var/lib/portage/world file and ran emerge -depclean. This seems like a serious disaster of an upgrade. I don't actually know what wayland is, but I never had it installed before, so I'm not worried atm for the startplasma-wayland failure Startplasma-wayland fails I guess because I do have wayland installed. Basically a desktop with three command windows. Startplasma-x11 starts a graphical environment, but it looks a slightly prettier version of what the X command produces. At least it is not what I am accustomed to seeing. Unfortunately, while those two commands do exist, neither seems to actually start kde. I'll try that and mark this as solved (at least for now) Questions are guaranteed in life Answers aren't. Startkde is renamed in startplasma-x11 and startplasma-wayland Last edited by jfp on Thu 1:33 pm edited 4 times in total Unfortuanely, I don't know which package provides that file and equery b startkde doesn't find it.Ĭan anyone run using startx for kde please runĪnd let me know what package provides that file/command? Today, however, /usr/bin/startkde is gone!!! This uses my ~/.xinitrc which finally executes /usr/bin/startkde. Typically, after a reboot, I logon to my userid and run the command "startx". Later I reboot after dealing with the new genkernel version. Today, as I do everyday, I ran my normal sync and update & emerge -uDN didn't actually look carefully at the list of packages getting updated, but think most were from kde-plasma.
