Hey guys. The startup process on my pc is a little bit rough...

Whenever I start KDE, it shows the nice loading screen with the icons, then it fades to the desktop. Normal startup sequence for now, right? Well once it fades it instantly flashes to a black screen (because compiz --replace is taking place), stays there for a bit, flashes back to the desktop, then flashes to the black screen again, then back to the desktop. Finally, KDE wallet asks me for the password because of auto-login, but Gnome's keyring manager asks me, also. So I have to click cancel twice on it, then enter my password for the Wallet, all the while theres a small window at the top of my screen just below the panel that spans the entire width of the screen titled "plasma-desktop" that I have to minimize, and it's just a window border. So anyway, the startup process is very choppy and ugly. Is there any way I can sorta "hide" all of this until it's all loaded? Thanks!
P.S. I don't mind the KDE wallet thing, that's normal.
