[SOLVED] Plasma 5 Background Issues
Just did a fresh install of Arch with KDE Plasma 5. After about 2 logins, I've had the following issue crop up:
Everytime I log in, the desktop loading splash never fully fades. My desktop background is just the partially-faded Breeze splash screen. It doesn't matter what I set my background to, it always shows the splash.
I'm not really sure how to diagnose the issue. Any pointers on where to look?

Re: [SOLVED] Plasma 5 Background Issues
Intel driver? Are you using EGL?

Re: [SOLVED] Plasma 5 Background Issues
Yes and yes. Switching back to GLX fixed this! 
Why is this?

Re: [SOLVED] Plasma 5 Background Issues
EGL doesn't play well with DRI2, which is still default for the Intel driver
