From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

KWallet and startx on Tumbleweed (lemmy.world)

I start KDE with startx on tumbleweed, everything works except that kwallet asks for my password when I launch discord or other apps. I installed pam_kwallet and made sure that my user password is identical to my kwallet password. Anyone knows how I could fix this?

My xinitrc seems to be sourced from /usr/libexec/xinit/xinitrc by default

I really like booting to a terminal and only starting X if I need it, that's why I do it.

Best you can probably do is have wallet prompt for an unlock password after statx each time then.

I use gnome, but I do boot to a terminal and start by starting the gdm service that autologins me. You might be able to launch kde using plasmastart-x11/wayland, would that make a difference?
