[om-qa] .iso 480 presumed RC2 candidate.

Nothing relying on Akonadi PIM is working here including KMail. Either 
Akonadi PIM is broken or I don't know how to turn it on. I thought 
simply 'akonadictl start' would do it. Silly me. This would seem to be a 
must fix?

I have my hands kinda full with discovery that om-qa-alerts ml appears 
to no longer be connected to bugzilla as well as my being excluded from 
om-qa  and om-qa-alerts mailing list administration. I am listed as 
being an admin for both but currently I'm locked out. Should mention 
that I have been contacted by Anurag Bhandari about this but don't know 
any more than that. I do know that om-qa-alerts archive is empty save 
one ping mail from me so it is dead at the moment. JCL has fixed my 
access to om-qa-alerts admin at least 3 times but I keep losing it for 
some reason.

Did no one but me notice that they aren't getting om-qa-alerts e-mails?

I have managed to get logs (xorg journal dmesg) but they don't tell anything as far as I can see. I am not sure also whether manner in which I am getting them is valid.

Switch to a virtual terminal and as root run "systemctl restart sddm" and you get the desktop back but kalarm not longer works. This may be because the pim server is not running so it all may work after a full install.

It looks like the vboxvido kernel module is broken in some way as I get loads of kernel messages from it and the live system will not start. It works fine in troubleshooting mode. It's possible that the kernel module is not the latest VB version but I don't know for certain.
