Description of problem: If I start Run Level 5 from boot, everything works well. If go to RL 5 out of RL3, KDE and networking is not working. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): Fedora 24 Systemd 229-13 kde How reproducible: 100% Steps to Reproduce: There are two ways to reproduce it. 1. Start computer 2. Edit bootoptions of Grub. Add a "3" at the end of the Kernel line. 3. Login as root after the system has started 4. enter the coamnnd: init 5 5. Try to longin to KED plasma workspace Or 1. Start the computer and wait until the graphical login is shown. 2. Hit: Ctrl+Alt+F2 3. login as root 4. enter the coamnnd: init 3 5. wait 6. enter the coamnnd: init 5 7. Try to longin to KED plasma workspace Actual results: KDE misses D-Bus and other things Expected results: The same as after a reboot. Additional info:
Sounds like a problem with KDE units (some missing dependencies?). It'd be only a systemd issue if units that were declared in dependencies were not started, but nothing in your description indicates this.
I don't think it is a problem of KDE, because KDE works as it should when I just start direct to RL5. The problem is that the systemd setup of Fedora does not produce the same status on boot to RL5 and after the command "init 5". That's really not a KDE problem.
'init 3' is the same as 'systemctl isolate multi-user.target', and 'init 5' is the same as 'systemctl isolate graphical.target'. What gets started in the KDE case depends on various dependencies as specified in KDE units. It's not necesarilly expected that booting directly to graphical.target, and isolating multi-user.target and then graphical.target again, because the latter might stop some units which are not specified as a dependency. But this operation should result in working system.
This message is a reminder that Fedora 24 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 2 (two) weeks from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 24. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as EOL if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '24'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version. Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not able to fix it before Fedora 24 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior this bug is closed as described in the policy above. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete.
Yeah, later on we hardcoded runlevel5.target to be an alias for graphical.target and it should work properly now (though probably not in F24).
