--- Comment #33 from Christian <k...@moin.fi> --- (In reply to David Redondo from comment #32) > Hi, does the following patch help? > It shows the last image shown the last time on startup, which should signal > ealier that wallpaper.loading = false; Thanks, David. The patch compiles and does show the last image shown the last time on startup. But it doesn't fix the problem: * The plasmashell process still consumes huge amount of processing time immediately from the login * During that time, many plasma things don't work, including the "Start menu" or whatever KDE calls it, the status bar with the notification icons, etc. Maybe it helps to re-state what the problem is (the fact that the wallpaper doesn't show immediately, which you fixed in the patch, is only one problem). The main problem is that, now, Plasma appears to "scan and read" the whole image collection immediately after log-in (not sure what for), and this freezes the rest of plasma desktop for a considerable while. (More than 10 minutes on this machine... I.e., I don't log out any more, I just lock the screen instead, because logging in to a working system takes ages.) In earlier versions, there was no problem like this. I don't know what changed internally, but the explanation in Comment #13 sounds correct to me. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
