Hi Herman :-)

Do you mind telling which iso you used to install from + the content of its DATE file?

Into which DE (desktop environment) did you boot?

Had you only installed packages from the iso, without enabling extra media and without updating, before you first started your DE?

Latest classical isos 
i586 : Thu Mar 10 21:45:52 CET 2016
x86-64 : Fri Mar 11 13:49:02 CET 2016
Happens on x86-64 Plasma and on i586 Xfce.
Only packages installed from the iso, no extra media no updates.

Try again:
Looking better at what happens:
On the i586 laptop with Xfce, the buttons to Close or Do not show never appear, so the Welcome screen shows after every boot.

But it is possible to move the screen slightly upwards, so that they do become visible, correct?

@ Herman

What is the resolution (is that the correct word, I mean the hight and width of your screen in pixels, like e.g. 1366x768) of your screen?

(asked that because I do not remember having seen this issue in any of my cauldrons, including on 3 different laptops. When checking XFCE this morning the MgaWelcome screen had centered perfectly, so the bottom buttons were fully visible)
Comment 8 Marja Van Waes 2016-03-29 09:03:24 CEST
ah, and another question:

Are the buttons still hidden after creating a new user and logging in with that user?
Comment 9 Herman Viaene 2016-03-29 09:46:46 CEST
Problem is gone after the updates on the MCC programs. I cannot provoke it anymore.
