 |
|
Hello,
First time posting, I hope I don't break any rules.
I am having trouble starting kwin in a fresh install.
When I run kwin_wayland_wrapper as root [/quote]it shows the cursor.
But when I run as a normal user it spews this:
| Code: |
No backend specified, automatically choosing drm
kwin_core: Failed to create gbm device for "/dev/dri/card0"
kwin_wayland_drm: No suitable DRM devices have been found

|
elogind works as per loginctl report.
I've tried starting with
| Code: |
dbus-run-session startplasma-wayland
|
with the same result.
user is in video group.
I installed through the plasma-desktop package.
I have not tried sddm yet.
Any hints on what could be going on?

I forgot to mention this is on an aarch64 board.
I managed to install gentoo on the same board last year and have a working kde5. But the install got too old to update and I am trying to start fresh. |
