LXDE, startkde, and ksmserver


Recently I had a problem with "startkde" and "ksmserver" after I had logged into LXDE and then logged into KDE.

I am using Testing ("bullseye").

When I remove LXDE from my system, it worked as usual when I logged into KDE.

Question: Why?

Yeah.... it's a simple question, and it may have a complicated answer, but I am wondering what causes this to happen.

Thank you for any advice/answers you may give, and have a moderately good day!

Even in 2021, DEs don't always mix very well. Especially KDE.
If you can track down exactly why this happens, feel free to share it!
