Description dev@lalber.org 2021-11-21 22:14:10 UTC
SUMMARY
Splash screen does not stop when using other window manager. Tested with bspwm and i3. 


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Install a KDE distro (Manjaro KDE) 
2. Install bspwm 
3. Create a new session file 
/usr/share/xsessions/PlasmaBSPWM.desktop
```
[Desktop Entry]
Type=XSession
Exec=env KDEWM=/usr/bin/bspwm /usr/bin/startplasma-x11
TryExec=/usr/bin/startplasma-x11
DesktopNames=KDE
Name=Plasma with bspwm
```
4. Start the plasma with bspwm session 

OBSERVED RESULT
The splash screen does not stop and covers all windows except the kde bar. It seams that after some time a timeout occurs that exits the slash screen. 
If I disable the splash screen in the system settings all works as expected. 

EXPECTED RESULT
The slash should end when bspwm is loaded. 

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Linux/KDE Plasma: 5.15.2-MANJARO
