Hi All,
Fedora-KDE-Live-x86_64-34-1.2.iso
$ loginctl show-session 2 -p Type
Type=wayland
How do I switch back to Xorg (X11)?
I am drawing a blank on DuckDuckGo.
Many thanks,

Hi Ed,
Picture worth 1000 words!
I had to reboot the first time as it froze up
Second time:
$ loginctl show-session 2 -p Type
Type=X11
And the mouse is still confined and the clipboard
does not work.
$ systemctl status spice-vdagentd
○ spice-vdagentd.service - Agent daemon for Spice guests
Loaded: loaded (/usr/lib/systemd/system/spice-vdagentd.service;

TriggeredBy: ● spice-vdagentd.socket
From kconsole
$ /usr/bin/spice-vdagent
and the mouse is unconfined and the clipboard

Must better. kconsole is no longer irritating either!
:-)
Now how to autostart spice-vdagentd (in KDE)?
Thank you for all the help!

No need to start spice-vdagentd! I think I said that more than once.
You can see from above, and better yet the one with the full output, that
spice-vdagentd.service is
"enabled" AND "TriggeredBy: ● spice-vdagentd.socket"
Further more, you can see that spice-vdagentd.socket is "listening"
When you run spice-vdagent it connects to the default port/socket. That then
"triggers" spice-vdagentd.service.
You question should really be. How do I start /usr/bin/spice-vdagent at login without
having to type it or run it
after login.
I gave you one way. That is to put /usr/bin/spice-vdagent as a line in your .bashrc
file. Assuming, of course,
you are using bash as your default shell as defined in /etc/passwd.
The other way is to write a systemd --user unit
Either way works just fine.

I've done this for sometime now. I don't know, and really don't care to find
out, it the situation exists that prompted
me to do that. But, what was happening is that when one logged out from the Plasma
session some processes would
remain running in the background. I think the intention what that if the same user logged
in again those processes
could be reclaimed to speed up the login. I found that after a time there were a large
number of "orphaned" processes.
I also had issue with Plasma reconnecting to pulseaudio. I also think that not killing
processes was part of the "switch user"
feature which has been disabled by default and which I never really tried using.
Killing the user processes on logout fixed things for me.

The reboot I'd been requesting was to ensure status entries were "fresh".
What I reference above was for normal operations where one may login/logout/login multiple
time in a day.

I did that one and later on an additional one because
the turkey froze on me.

When looking for something else a little
while ago I found a thread on
the net that was indicating that even in F34 KDE on Wayland was still
not a viable entity.

systemd would be a workaround. But it should work properly on its own
and not require my intervention.
For now, I will just trigger it manually.
Thank you! You know you have a gift.

No, they have no connection. Zero, nada, none.

Then you need to check to see why by getting the status of the spice-vdagent.service and
spice-vdagent.socket.
Let me illustrate one again with an F34KDE system which is using an systemd --user unit.
I'm using this since
I didn't put logic in my .bashrc to check the environment in which it is started and
this causes misleading log
entries.
I will reboot and then first login via ssh.

What on
ListenStream=/run/spice-vdagentd/spice-vdagent-sock
is the socket missing?
I do not understand the question.
That is the socket that /usr/bin/spice-vdagent binds to when run from .bashrc, the --user
systemd unit,
or from konsole.
The action of spice-vdagent binding to the socket then triggers the spice-vdagentd
(daemon).

In my host and all my other VM's, spice-vdagentd.service
is running far before ~/.bashrc and far before logging in.
I happens seconds after the kernel is selected

It doesn't though
In KDE, spice-vdagentd.socket is not hearing

OK.... Try this simple test.....
Reboot the KDE system. Then login via an SSH session. Not a graphical session.

That is because some other desktops will do that. KDE doesn't
That is what need to be fixed.
It will take me a while to configure ssh

More of a "Feature" request than anything.
It will take me a while to configure ssh
Takes 2 seconds on the guest.
systemctl --now enable sshd
I think the default KDE firewall setup has port 22 open

Hi Ed,
I see the set up for the service and the socket.
What I am trying to figure out is why the socket
is not being triggered to start the service.
Let me try this again.
Every thing below looks as it should.
At boot time, the spice-vdagentd.service is supposed to be *DEAD*.
I showed you that to be the case in my previous post. It shows *DEAD*.
That is NORMAL. That is The Way it Should be!
Then when /usr/bin/spice-vdagent is run. (no d at the end) it will connect to
the socket /run/spice-vdagentd/spice-vdagent-sock this then *triggers*
spice-vdagentd. And that then runs.
I showed all of that in my previous post.
And, I mentioned 2 says to get /usr/bin/spice-vdagent to run on login.
Why it didn't for you, I cannot comment without knowing the status after login.
