+ I just upgraded to Kubuntu 15.04. There were no problems during the
  upgrade itself. After the reboot I see the new login screen (sddm, used
  to be lightdm before the upgrade).
  
  I can enter my password but then nothing visibly changes. The screen
  still shows the login screen, but nothing can be clicked. On some
  occasions there is one change: the mouse cursor changes to an X.
  
  I can go to Ctrl-Alt-F1 and login ok.
  
  I have removed some old user configurations:
  mv ~/.kde dot.kde.old
  mv ~/.config dot.config.old
  rm -rf ~/.cache
  then rebooted and tried again, but the result is the same
  
  I have switched back to lightdm:
  dpkg-reconfigure lightdm
  then
  service sddm stop
  service lightdm start
  but the behaviour in lightdm is basically the same. I can enter the password 
then only the lightdm background is visible anymore and nothing furhter happens
  
  What I see now is that after sddm or lightdm are in this 
post-password-nothing-happens-anymore state, I can go to Ctrl-Alt-F1 and do:
  export DISPLAY=:0
  xlogo
  back to Ctrl-Alt-F7
  and the logo shows ok.

  startkde
  and the session comes up ok and now everything appers to be running fine. Hey 
I can even open a browser and report a bug!
