Description Panos Kavalagios 2016-07-25 14:43:57 UTC

The compositor is de-activated and cannot be re-enabled if you log in for a second time in KDE. The taskbar for example is not transparent. The problem is resolved only if you reboot the system and you log in for the first time.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Reboot the system.
2. Log in to KDE.
3. Logout and try to log in again.

Actual Results:  
The compositor is not enabled. The taskbar is losing its transparent layout (oxygen black theme).

Expected Results:  
The compositor should have been enabled as the first time you log in to the system.


The graphics card is:
VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Xeon E3-1200 v2/3rd Gen Core processor Graphics Controller (rev 09)
