Yea, when I was googling around I found out that the plug was pulled on |
20 |
kdm. The old kdm always worked for me but KDE5 and the plasma thing is |
21 |
a whole new can of worms code wise from what I read. I guess a fresh |
22 |
start was easier than trying to recode all that mess. |

I haven't tried rebooting/shutdown yet so I guess I'll find out one time |
25 |
or another if I have the same problem. Generally tho, I only |
26 |
shutdown/reboot when I have a power failure here. So far, I'm at 118 |
27 |
days. When I do that, I usually do it within KDE since I already know I |
28 |
have to shutdown and I'm almost always logged in. |

I'm just glad this is a little smoother than the KDE3 to KDE4 mess. :-) |
