Running latest TW (though I didn’t run zypper dup yesterday 02 Jun)
I booted into my primary TW install KDE/Plasma desktop and ran YaST and went to remove packages related to “jupyter”. I did this because I noticed two “Jupyter” apps listed in the “Development” menu. I never use it (and won’t) …
I checked my secondary TW install and my laptop TW install and neither of those have any packages related to “jupyter”.
So, after I selected the packages to Remove (in YaST), I clicked the Accept button, it performed the removal of the packages, then I clicked the YaST OK button to finalize …
And suddenly, the KDE Plasma screen disappeared … and I’m now looking at a login prompt on console1 !!
So I thought to log in as my regular user and run startx … but I’m shown IceWM as my GUI.
So, I quit, and login as another user, and then as root … same thing = IceWM.
Then I thought to reboot - maybe needs a fresh boot. Did so, shows me console1 … I run startx, end up in IceWM.
It’s a bit odd too … I can run various KDE apps while in IceWM. I can run Dolphin, Spectacle, Kate, etc.
I have seen this error a couple of times (so I ran the suggested export, then create ‘0’ subdir):
:~ # spectacle

I went into YaST and added back the “jupyter” packages - no difference - still IceWM.

ANY suggestions for next steps ??
.
Should I go back to a previous Snapshot ? Which one? (I would think 01 Jun?? It’s 03 Jun now, 13:05)
