I've been fighting with F24 (gosh I  miss the good old days) but today it's totally disconnected on me.

My laptop has developed an intermittent  backlight problem so i have it driving my TV instead. While trying to resolve resolution issues between and driving both the onboard LCD and the TV my KDE task bar has gone away.

Logging out and in doesn't restore it, and neither does a reboot. I also tried starting Gnome,  which does, but the Wi-fi doesn't start.

Can annyone suggest what to try next?

​After trying Gnome and XFCE, unplugging the TV, and a number of reboots,
everything has magically reappeared​.  So my problem has magically gone
away, as magically as it appeared.  Sorry for the bother.
