--- Begin Message ---Package: kdm Version: 4:4.11.13-2 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer, I'm having an issue where after I login to my KDE Plasma desktop on Debian jessie I get a blank screen (with the Debian logo in the bottom right). * What led up to the situation? An apt-get dist-upgrade followed by a reboot (today). * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or ineffective)? Running: sudo /etc/init.d/kdm restart fixes the problem. (But I don't want to have to do that manually every time I reboot!) * What was the outcome of this action? After restarting kdm I could login to my KDE Plasma desktop properly again. * What outcome did you expect instead? I expect to be able to login to my desktop after a reboot without having to restart kdm.
