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.

    I don’t have any strong feelings towards arch systems, so I’ve just moved on to @opensuse #Tumbleweed and have never seen that problem again. I know, this is not really a solution to the problem but as I said, nobody knew where the problem came from, so there was no way I could have ever fixed it or found a less cumbersome workaround instead of rebooting ad infinitum. <<
