From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Sometimes, my KDE starts without the "taskbar"

When I boot my Arch Linux machine, about 1/10 times the "taskbar" is missing. (Do you still call it a taskbar?)

All I see it desktop icons, the background and the mouse cursor. I'm using NVIDIA proprietary drivers.

Do you guys have any idea what's with that? It's hard to troubleshoot because it only happens sometimes.
