Description Chris Ward 2017-06-02 16:04:37 UTC
When logging to kde in with my normal (non-root) ID, about 1 time in 2 the login hangs with a movable mouse but nothing on the screen and no activity possible. I can do Ctrl-alt-F1, log in as root, 'telinit 3', 'telinit 5', and have another try at logging in.
This is happening with OpenSUSE Leap 42.3 and 42.2 .
I find the following in /var/log/kdm.log :

The D-Bus session is not initialized. If you are not using custom startup-scripts (or modifications), please report this issue to the bug tracker of your distribution.

Note, however, that KDM is unmaintained, and that your distribution provider might recommend to use a different display manager (login manager) instead.
