Thanks Ed. I think I'm using gdm for my display manager. I've
forgotten the command to find out because I don't use it regularly.
Just a bit of additional information, after the last update nothing
has changed and when the plasma start fails I tried to use alt-F2 to
get to a login prompt to look at the Xorg log file but krunner also
fails so it won't swap. All of the apps that are failing are all
failing with a Segmentation Fault. I'll reply to Rex's thread but I am
using Vmware Player to run Fedora.
Hi Ed, just further to this, I worked out what
command to issue and I am
indeed running gdm as my display manager.
regards,
Steve
