https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=406640 Summary: desktop disappeared entirely after applying "present windows" from 'desktop effects' Product: openSUSE 11.0 Version: Final Platform: x86-64 OS/Version: openSUSE 11.0 Status: NEW Severity: Critical Priority: P5 - None Component: KDE4 Workspace AssignedTo: kde-maintainers@suse.de ReportedBy: francis.mestdagh@gmail.com QAContact: qa@suse.de Found By: --- In system settings I enabled "desktop effects" and called "all effects". There I disabled all but "present windows" (because that's the only effect I really like.) Then I hit 'Apply' and 'accept configuration' My screen went black and that's the way it stayed. I restarted, get through the login screen but cannot see my desktop any more, just a black screen with the mouse indicator. So I created a new user to reproduce this bug and I could reproduce it easily (did this twice). Other users and root still have their desktop when they login, only I have lost everything really, because their's not much I can do without desktop. And therefore I consider this bug CRITICAL. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
