So, I really would do that first. But, once you've confirmed that it is specific to your user I would do something like the following to narrow things down. (Hard to be very specific since I don't know if you are using saved sessions or are auto starting applications). I would login as a different user, or login to a terminal session, to make sure the KDE is not running for the problem account. Then, I would move the .kde/share directory to .kde/share-save or whatever and then try to login. If that fixes the problem then I'd go about narrowing down what may be causing the trouble in that directory structure. The problem could also, potentially, be related to something in .config. Yes, it can be a time consuming process. That is why I keep a weekly snapshot of my .kde and .config directory structure. And because something similar happened to me a few years ago. I gave up on try to track it down and just blew away those directories and started configuring as I liked it. -- If you can't laugh at yourself, others will gladly oblige. -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
