Hello, I installed a 1.4 GB update using the system update app but when I restarted my laptop, after selecting the default startup option: OpenMandriva, it just shows an eternal black screen after the splash. I found that I’m finally able to boot into my desktop if I run OM using the console and use startplasma-wayland to login. I was using x11 before, i speculate that the recent update broke x11 on my pc config, I tried this on a clean install and i get the same result. How can I set wayland as my default desktop to avoid having to go through the console to boot?
Im using the default x11 rome iso install, plasma 6, CPU: AMD 7410 with R5 graphics
If you can get to the login screen, there is a dropdown menu in the bottom left that lets you pick the DE or WM you want to use. You should also try to do another
sudo dnf dsync --refresh --allowerasing
because there are numerous updates that may be taking place as we prepare to release Rock 6.0.
Thank you for the reply, however when I log out and try to enter the login screen im booted back into the console and can’t access any dropdown. My only option is to log back in using startplasma-wayland again. I tried sudo dnf dsync --refresh --allowerasing but the terminal reported that there was nothing to do, everything is done. Im trying to see if theres a way to set wayland as default without the dropdown at least to fix this for the moment
I installed using “sudo dnf in task-plasma6-wayland” when using the boot to console option. This allowed me to start wayland with “startplasma-wayland” and finally access my desktop.
