Reboot after zypper dup does not boot to desktop environment
Last modified: 2021-06-14 08:00:27 UTC
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:88.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/88.0 Build Identifier: Running 'sudo zypper ref && sudo zypper dup' succeeds like normal. After reboot I wait for the Grub2 timer to run. I see the normal screen saying: "Booting 'openSUSE Tumbleweed' "Loading Linux 5.12.9-1-default..." "Loading intial ramdisk..." Then, for a few seconds there is a grey-ish screen with three dots in the middle. Then, instead of going to the KDE desktop, a black terminal appears saying "Welcome to openSUSE Tumbleweed 20210603 - Kernel 5.12.9-1-default" I login to the terminal and use snapper to rollback. I have done this three times now with the same result. I don't know how to provide additional details. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.zypper ref && zypper dup 2.reboot 3.rollback snapshot Actual Results: Boot to a terminal instead of GUI KDE desktop.

Before doing anything else, while still rolled back, please provide output here using Konsole from inxi -Ga. https://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Bugreport_X provides some details of additional information needed here. I suggest before you do that, to login as root at the login prompt, migrate to /etc/sddm.conf.d/ and open kde_settings.conf for edit with any text editor, such as nano, joe, vim or mcedit, and remove your login name from the User=line. This should disable automatic login, to better enable problem diagnosis.
Plasma doesn't start at all and I have only a terminal string to login. I tried some manipulations and currently if I remove Kernel 5.12.9 and stay on 5.12.4, all goes well. TW

I guess this is about the usual nvidia issues caused by bug 1186710.

Likely a dup of the recent UsrMerge fallout, breaking Nvidia driver installation. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 1186710 ***
