View Full Version : [kde] KDE Desktop load hangs

I've just upgraded a Kubuntu box to 11.04.
It was configured to load the desktop without a login.
The problem now is that it loads up to the first four icons on the KDE splash screen, but never completes the last, large KDE icon. It hangs.

Anyone know how I can get around this?

UPDATE: I managed to boot into the desktop by switching the desktop effects from by using an alternative GUI. But it begs the question, desktop effects worked fine in 10.04 and 10.10 on this PC. Why not 11.04?



thanks

OK, seems to be a new feature installed for some of us:
