This is from a clean installation?
What version?
Comment 3 Jordyn Carattini 2015-03-13 21:52:40 UTC 
This Is From A Clean Installation
And Kubuntu 14.10 x86

I have the same error here. The first login after a clean installation of Kubuntu beta 2 is no problem. After rebooting I can't get plasmashell to start properly. The Splash-Screen takes really long to vanish and afterwards only the Programms, assigned to Autostart are showing up, but no panel or anything else shows up. I can start the Starter (Alt-F2) but it doesn't respond to any command written into. 
Deleting ~/.local, ~/.kde, ~/.cache and ~/.config makes it possible to login again, but obiously all the data and settings are defaulted.

look for a .cache/something.lock file
Comment 6 mail 2015-03-29 09:13:23 UTC 
Theres no such file. Deleting the config folder bringe plasmashell back to Start so it must be a file inside .config vor am I wrong Herr?
Comment 7 mail 2015-03-30 21:24:22 UTC 
Update: As the bug continued to bother me I did a deeper investigation and found out that i can login without freezing plasmashell after deleting ~/ .local/share/kscreen . there is only one file in there called abc3ad359db5651344cef45b894ddb4a . 
Maybe this helps to solve the Problem?

I Found A Fix After Instalation I Have To Boot It The Flag nomodeset
And Install The Package nvidia-304 (My Graphics Driver From nVidia)
Then Reboot Without The nomodeset Flag
And Thank's For All Y'all Help

Good to know that you found a solution. I'm struggling with it the whole time. All my trys from up above are useless, it's still freezing.
I use xfce right now which works for me...
