           Summary: Active startup starts plasma-desktop, then kills it,
                    then starts the Active shell
           Product: Active
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: unspecified
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: Plasma mobile shell
        AssignedTo: notmart at gmail.com
        ReportedBy: sebas at kde.org
                CC: active at kde.org


Version:           unspecified (using Devel) 
OS:                Linux

Active's startup process is very slow, one reason is that too complicated
startup sequence, which essentially goes like this:

plasma-desktop ; killall plasma-desktop ; plasma-tablet -graphicssystem raster

Only the last part should be necessary, but without starting and killing
plasma-desktop first, plasma-tablet has problems finding the dbus and fails to
start. "Something with dbus-launch" seems to be required, but I haven't found
out what this would be.



Reproducible: Didn't try

Steps to Reproduce:
log in to Plasma Active

Actual Results:  
slow because it starts plasma-desktop first

Expected Results:  
fast :)

This is done in the plasma-tablet-config and plasma-contour-config packages, in
the plasma-tablet.desktop and plasma-contour.desktop files in the Exec= line.
