Kubuntu Wily: 35 second freeze after appearance of desktop

Asked by JohnEverest

With a clean install of Kubuntu 15.10 64bit release and applied latest updates this delay remains.
It did not appear until an update was applied to a beta 1 version about 01/10/2015. After logging in, the desktop with wallpaper appears with icons that have no caption and the desktop panel has nothing in it. Then there is a 35 second delay before the icon captions appear and the panel is filled in. Then everything works.

System :- AMD quad core processor, 16GB ram, Nvidia GTX750 graphics card.
Gigabyte UEFI Dual BIOS MB.

Changing the graphics driver has no effect neither has turning off desktop effects.

I suggest you report a bug. Wily is still very young and bugs are still to be expected

hi!
this bug is already registered and worked on ->
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/wily/+source/plasma-nm/+bug/1509334

Just click on "Yes, I'm affected too" in the top rows.

A temporary workaround is to attach a bluetooth-Stick to the machine.

The bugfix should arrive in short time via updates.
