Ksplashx will not show right after login.
 

I have an up-to-date squeeze i386 fresh install which is not
displaying ksplash properly right after login. It just shows a white
rectangle on screen's top left corner, and then it presents my
desktop.

I assumed that there was something wrong with ksplash settings - so I
fired SystemSettings as root, selected "Look and Feel" > "Appearance"
> "Splash Screen" > "Default", and then hit the "Test Theme" button.
Got an error: "Failed to successfully test the splash screen".

So, I did the same as regular user. I found that my personal theme
choice was already "Default", and the test button worked. Also, I
typed >ksplahsx Default --test in konsole, and that worked also.

Then, I logged out, and logged in again. Still, no splash at all, only
a white rectangle on the left top screen corner.

Any hints?

Regards,
joão

That's root's splash screen you're setting in System Settings. (I'm
aware that you eventually solved the problem).

Cheers
