MX Modified - Latest MX KDE 5.22 Using MX21 beta

Hmmm nothing changed in that area... so I'm really surprised

I updated to the 5.21.1 and my sddm is broken. I can get to a login screen that has sddm errors on it and then enter my username and password and end up with a blank screen.
Working out how to fix that.
I may just reinstall and start again.

I had the exact same problem when I installed the slim login manager on antiX Sid yesterday. Something is broken with Sid right now it would seem.

sorry for stating the obvious, but that's exactly why it's called Sid

I remember wanting to punch Sid in the face the first time I saw that movie.

All good now.

Code: Select all

sudo apt-get install kde-standard

I guess i wasn't paying attention as I should have and uninstalled something.
Not sure what just moving on .

I got a bunch of PAM updates on Sid today, which help control login authentication. If PAM was broken with the last update that could be what was preventing you from logging in, I think.

So I am running SID and I don't see all these problems ... thus it might be a combination of stuff specific to MX Linux.

I installed the MX bullseye apt-notifier and did a update and it worked. I haven't tested everything with it.
Since I am on SID and not testing it might have some differences.

I would like to use it in a Dock . I have plank running but don't know how to make it show up. So i added a panel so I could see it.

Can you share a screenshot Dan?

I downloaded it from this post:

I don't know what tool to use to give you a screen capture from this system.
