Description of problem: I have kde plasma as my desktop. occasionally the startup will freeze in the splash screen. I am running the splash with the sqare withe KDE in it and the little progress bar under the KDE. The progress bar will freeze at its first non-zero location. If I do alt-ctrl-F2 and then alt-ctrl-F1, the initialisatin will complete and the desktop will show up. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Not. It happens only occasionally. No idea what triggers it but when it occurs the KDE box in the splash screen is displaced by about a fifth of a screen height downwards. Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3.

Dell XPS13 9360 (Kaby Lake). 1920x1080 non-touch screen. psmouse module blacklisted. x11-drivers-video-intel X driver. Dell 1920x1080 screen in xorg.conf. mouse cursor moves around on the frozen desktop. Keyboard works (eg, can type alt-ctrl-F2). I have left it for minutes and nothing happens. Something is stuck that refreshing (AC-F2, AC-F1) shakes free.
Summary: startup of plasma "freezes". occasioally => startup of plasma "freezes" occasionally
