Deepin desktop failure upon clean install #888

Basic info:

Anarchy version: 1.06

Installation method (VM/Host): bare metal install

System specifications (Processor, GPU, RAM ...): intel GPU, intel i3, 8g ram

What you expected would happen

Using 1.06 deepin install only, desktop does not work. White background can be fixed by changing wallpaper. DDE-dock must be killed and will auto restart to have that appear. In this a Deepin issue or script/install? Using intel i915 graphics. Repeated this 4 times, same result.

After several failed reinstalls of a deepin-only desktop, I deployed with an Anarchy default desktop then manually installed deepin (deepin + deepin-extra) and everything works. Seemed to me like a fault somewhere in running the initial dde-dock service because if I killed it with a low number pid it would autorestart with a high number pid and be fine.

Steps needed to reproduce the bug

  1. install Anarchy from USB
  2. Choose to install only Deepin desktop
  3. Reboot and login to deepin desktop
  4. See white screen, change wallpaper to fix that. Might be path problem.
  5. Notice no dock, open terminal, ps aux | grep dock
  6. kill pid for dde-dock and dock starts within moments

Extra info

Fresh reinstall, choose any other desktop then install deepin and deepin-extra manually after first boot. Deepin desktop works as expected. I saw no entries in logs regarding dde-dock or failures.

Logs,
Terminal output

alright. I must be an anomaly. Could it be anything with uefi or systemd boot? Like I said, the dde-dock shows up like it should in ps but for some reason it doesn't show. Used both default and xf86-video-intel drivers. Did find in jounalctl errors regarding dde-dock not being able to find qm files.
