When the login manager appeared, after selecting TDE as my session type
I was able to log in as my user. The default flash screen appeared with
seven icons across the bottom. The first four were highlighted briefly.
When the fifth one, “Loading the desktop”, appeared the icon flashed for
50 seconds, then the flash screen disappeared, leaving only the original
blue screen with blotches of white of various shapes, the Debian swirl
in red and the cursor – nothing else. From this point I could do
nothing else.
What I i supposed to do now? Was something was missed in the
installation?
I think it must be a bug. I have had the same thing happen.
So far, if I get into a virtual console, log in as root and do
# init 6
and login again when the login screen reappears, it boots in properly.
It didn't happen before I reinstalled. That was on pre-release Jessie.
All less frustrating solutions gladly welcomed.

Unfortunately, it's still the same bug.
I'm still not discovered what leads to deadlock:
I'm using this:
1) Ctrl+Alt+F1 for switch to the text console
2) killall -9 kdesktop
3) switch back to Xorg
4) and then try to start kdesktop again from console
