Update. I played around a bit. I figured I didn't have a lot to lose here. It either works, or it doesn't. After playing around a bit, I got it to work. I have not restarted it to see if it will work again, yet. I wanted to grab some log info first, while it is working. So, this part is about when KDE comes up completely but could include some attempts that failed. Comes up completely means, in the correct resolution, background image and the panel thing on the bottom, which means plasma is running as it should. I'm doing these inside the email instead of as attachments. Sorry for the length. I just want to share this while I have it available.
This first one, I had a few failures before it succeeded. I couldn't figure out when the working bit started so it is the complete log.

This is when it worked, this time anyway. Other things I tried did nothing. Now that I have documented all this, I'm going to reboot the rig and see if it works again. I think we already have failed logs but will share what happens. On reboot, I was able to login on the sddm screen, KDE came up but no plasma. Black background, no panel thingy at the bottom. Appears to be in correct resolution tho. After this, I toggled the "Identifier" in xorg.conf. On second reboot, started DM, no sddm, no login and monitor powered off. Usually when it powers off, I have to use ssh to access it. When I restarted DM through ssh, sddm screen comes up. When I logging, black screen but monitor still on and active. Screen is completely black tho. When I restart DM again, after a few seconds, monitor powers off and goes to sleep. On third reboot, I start DM and monitor goes blank and goes to sleep mode. After this, I toggled the "Identifier" in xorg.conf. Same. Monitor goes to sleep. Given I get different results even with the same settings, I'm wondering about that monitor. I've changed video cards so that should eliminate that. The only common thing is the monitor. Thing is, that monitor worked for a long time on my main rig, it also has worked fine on the NAS box and the old Dell system as well. That was very recent I might add. This new system is the only one that has issues with that monitor. The new monitor should give us clues. If it just works when it gets here, then it is the monitor acting weird. If it does the same thing, there is a config error somewhere. I can't think of anything else. Open to ideas still. I'd like to get this working. If for no other reason, the new monitor could have the same issue and require some special settings somewhere. Thanks for all the help. Sorry to have so much info in one email. :/ At least we have details of when it is working now tho. :-D Dale :-) :-)
