Hi,
I've just updated F19 and after reboot I do not get the usual kdm login screen.
The graphic screen with the F stays there forever.
I can login in text mode and run 'startx' and I get to the normal KDE session.
Looking at the logs I only noticed
[FAILED] Wait for Plymouh Boot Screen to quit
and in /var/log/messages
there is something about
Sep 21 15:24:35 localhost kdm[335]: plymouth --ping -> 0
Sep 21 15:24:35 localhost kdm[335]: plymouth is running ...
Sep 21 15:24:35 localhost kdm[335]: plymouth deactivate -> 0
Sep 21 15:24:35 localhost kdm[335]: plymouth --has-active-vt -> 0
Sep 21 15:24:35 localhost kdm[335]: plymouth should quit when server starts
Sep 21 15:24:36 localhost kdm[335]: plymouth is active on VT 1, reusing for :0
Sep 21 15:24:36 localhost kdm[335]: X server startup timeout, terminating
Sep 21 15:24:36 localhost kdm[335]: X server for display :0 cannot be started, session
disabled
any idea?
in the end something damaged in /var/log/journal
google it, it turned out that some services took too long to start.
not too sure, but renaming that folder fixed it.
