Same issue here, desktop with Intel graphics. Completely clean install including blank, formatted /home, default installation boots to black desktop with taskbar at bottom, and windows that get opened are also black. Disabling desktop effects with key combination usually gets it going, sometimes crashy. I changed compositing type to xrender, native, and it worked for a bit, but crashed again to black after a reboot. Now OpenGL 3.1 and Native, it has survived four reboots so far without issues. I installed the latest beta iso, issue existed. Then full update as of right now, same issue. I've deleted the .kde folder a couple times with the issue persisting. -Sometimes- when it would work on reboot without those settings being changed. I will post after the next updates or if it crashes again. I also had an approximately 3 year old Dell laptop I was working on here a couple weeks ago with intel graphics, it was doing the same thing on live disc. Same iso, checksum is ok. Did not check live session before install on desktop, running Kubuntu for the two years since I assembled it without issue (Did clean format beta install after fully updated 13.10 upgrade to 14.04 failed during upgrade process).
