logged clues in journalctl, dmesg, .xsession-errors, Xorg.0.log or elsewhere?
The error that shows on the login is from ksmserver, I haven't tried to
run it with gdb again to see if the TQTString error shows up, but it's a
fair bet it's the same.
The PC I mentioned 2017-08-06 18:58 -0400 is i586. TDM
works to login and get a
TDE session working, but if I try without TDM running via startx, startx gets
Xorg running, but it immediately terminates.
Good to know, my 2 other computers are both running X86_64 and TDE is
working perfectly on both, so this has got to be pretty hardware
specific, but is a bit of a mystery. The software set up on my laptop is
very similar.
Since I had the case open, I also tried pulling out my soundcard and
video capture card, just in case there was some kind of hardware scan
that was crashing things.
Which *tqt* packages are installed? Does anything among

look related?
None of them stands out.
If you log onto IRC irc://freenode/trinity-desktop
maybe SlavekB could help more
than mere users here? trinity-devel list likewise at this point seems likely
better suited to actually solving your problem. Indicate exactly which NVidia
device you have. Better help may result from keeping the NVidia driver
uninstalled until the problem is resolved.
Thanks, I'll keep that as an emergency backup, IRC isn't really my thing.
Another thought, since you're apparently not
averse to reinstalling on a
separate HD: try a different TDE supported RPM distro, PCLinuxOS, CentOS,
openSUSE or Fedora. If no crash there, probably not a(n unsolvable) hardware issue.
I might give CentOS 7 a go, I think I have an install image somewhere.
Thanks again.
