Plasma starts with black screen Cliff McDiarmid wrote:
Hi
I have just installe0d Plasma 5.5.4 on LFS. I created a new user to
boot from so new dirs were created. I am getting the splash screen
and 'loading bar' after which it stops at a black screen with mouse
pointer.
The .x.session-errors file is attached. Aside from a Kmix crash
which appears(on screen as well) and a QML file that fails to load,
there are other errors, but I need a pointer as to what is wrong. Any
ideas here?
Did you create the symlinks?
cd $KF5_PREFIX/share/plasma/plasmoids
for j in $(find -name \*.js); do as_root ln -sfv ../code/$(basename
$j) $(dirname $j)/../ui/ done
Also, I try plasma-5.6.0 at
http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/view/svn/kde/plasma-all.html
Thanks for that
No, hadn't created them, but it hasn't made any difference. Will
probably go for later Plasma.
One question. Does Frameworks have to be latest, along with Plasma? I
assume it would be best?
I build using /opt/kf5 -> kf5-5.19.0. It's relatively easy to build all
of lf5/plasma bu removing /opt/kde and, if needed, renaming
/opt/kf5-5.19.0. Of course if the kf5 version is different, then the
renaming is not needed.
When you build, be sure to redirect the output to a log so you can inspect
it. In my build script I use:
cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=$KF5_PREFIX \
-DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release \
-DLIB_INSTALL_DIR=lib \
-DBUILD_TESTING=OFF \
$OPTS \
-Wno-dev .. 2>&1 | tee -a $LOG
make -j8 2>&1 | tee -a $LOG
sudo -E make install 2>&1 | tee -a $LOG
Of course $KF5_PREFIX and $LOG have to be defined.
