The first thing to do would be to figure out which of your KDE/Plasma processes 
have xinit or init as the parent process, and if there's something like 
startkde among them. If so, that should be the last command in your .xinitrc 
file. Otherwise, if you just "fall through" at the end of that script, nothing 
will happen indeed when you try to log in. Instead, the login greeter will 
reappear almost immediately.

Yes. It's a regular shell script, so you can put (almost) any command that you 
would type in a shell.

R.
