Bug Description
I have just upgraded my Ubuntu 9.10 to 10.04-RC.
Since this upgrade I no longer can start KDE sessions. I can log into KDM and the splash screen appears but the animation is killed before it is finished. Then the login tune is played and the screen stays with the background shown. No menu bar, no right mouse click menus. In most cases (but not always) it is possible to use shortcuts like ALT-F2 or ALT-CTRL-DEL.
I already have created a new user with a blank home directory for testing with the same result.
The process list shows a <defunct> nepomukserver.
Hardware:
* Lenovo X200 with Intel graphics (latest xorg with the memory leak fixed)
* 3G RAM
Many thanks in advance,
Lutz

Ok, I just found the solution in www.linuxforen. de/forums/ showthread. php?t=262880

I needed to "apt-get install kdebase-workspace" manually after the dist-upgrade.
Best regards,
Lutz
