Yes, white screen, and found it. Thanks for that.  It is invisible until you roll the mouse over it whereupon it shows a thin rectangular outline. Clicking in it brings up a choice between Wayland and X11.  Did they intend that only the cognoscenti are aware of the option? Simple Screen Recorder now works, so it must have made a difference

you may find a selection box near the bottom left corner, really hard to see...

you may select plasma-x11, instead of wayland (never worked for me)

see how you go.

LightDM, sddm, something else? The Login Manager should give the choice.

This is because Daedalus installed with Wayland rather than the X window system (I don't recall being offered a choice) and eg Simple Screen Recorder does not support Wayland (or vice-versa).  My package manager Synaptic tells me that x11 is installed, but it seems that Daedalus is not using it.  What do I need to do to tell Daedalus to boot using x11 and not Wayland? To comment or uncomment some lines in /etc perhaps?

Googling for help found some discussion on how to do this for Gnome, but it involved some files that do not exist in my Deadalus/KDE installation.
