Thoughts, no. Questions, yes.
You said you didn't install from live. So, how did you install?
From an install ISO, but not the Live distro.
You made /home on its own partition, yes?
Yes, as always.
You said it used LVM against your better judgement. How did that
happen?
I normally disable it at installation, but this time I couldn't seem to
find the right combination of options. The last time I did a full
install is about 5 years ago and I've just been upgrading ever since.
The new install was prompted by getting a new SSD and deciding to bite
the bullet and use UEFI for boot instead of MBR.
Are you saying you need to supply your user password twice to get to
the KDE session?
No, the login appears to work, but always shows this pop-up.
Nevertheless, nothing seems to be disabled. In fact I often don't
notice it because it's behind some other window. It's an annoyance
rather than a showstopper.
