That damn startup logo

[Ansley, Michael]

There is a similar problem which arises during the initial startup, after
you have just installed KDevelop.  What happens is that the logo covers over
the first wizard screen (or whatever it is) and you can't get to it.  You
might want to have a look at this at the same time.
