The last F22 KDE test I did in VM (KVM) was probably Alpha RC3
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fedora_jam/Test_Results:Fedora_22 (Jam
is based on the KDE spin and uses Plasma). At which time it worked
okay. Either an issue with your VM or a new bug. I could try this
evening with KVM. Do you have virtualisation extensions turned on in
hardware? That bit me after a recent motherboard change.
Further to Ed Greshko's question, was it okay on login after
installing and only failed after reboot following update?
