Public bug reported:
I was trying to use kstart to start three programs in three different desktops
after login, like this:
kstart --desktop 1 firefox
kstart --desktop 2 kmail
kstart --desktop 3 konsole
After (apparently) executing the script, the system hung solidly. I tried this
more elaborate version of the same thing:
#! /bin/sh
kstart --desktop 1 firefox &
kstart --desktop 2 kmail &
kstart --desktop 3 konsole &
exit
but the behavior was the same.
I'm running Kubuntu 14.10 with release
4:4.14.2-0ubuntu1~ubuntu14.10~ppa1 of kde-runtime.
