Package: kdm
Version: 4:4.11.13-2
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

I'm having an issue where after I login to my KDE Plasma desktop on Debian
jessie I get a blank screen (with the Debian logo in the bottom right).

   * What led up to the situation?

     An apt-get dist-upgrade followed by a reboot (today).

   * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
     ineffective)?

     Running:

      sudo /etc/init.d/kdm restart

     fixes the problem. (But I don't want to have to do that manually every
time I reboot!)

   * What was the outcome of this action?

     After restarting kdm I could login to my KDE Plasma desktop properly
again.

   * What outcome did you expect instead?

     I expect to be able to login to my desktop after a reboot without having
to restart kdm.

Regards,
John Elliot V

kdm was last released with Debian 8 (jessie) in April 2015
and was removed from the Debian archive afterwards.
It has been superseded by sddm.
See https://bugs.debian.org/803635 for details on the removal.
I'm closing the remaining bug reports now.

Andreas
