I go the KDE menu, select DisposableVM --> Firefox, the notification
pops up saying "starting dispvm"...but then nothing happens.

I find this happens once every dozen or so times I launch a dispvm. This
has been consistent for more than a year. A quick Ctrl-R in dom0 to find
the rebuild command solves the problem for me.
