kde apps take up to 20 mins to appear.

I run Debian testing, and for some time it takes for most (all?) kde apps to appear on the screen.

I wrote to the package maintainer:

I googled, but did not find anything relevant that would help a non-techie debian (lenny--I know I should be using stable, but I have reasons I would devulge, if need really be) user.

Kde was doing fine till I did something (I don't remember what it could have been), and the kde apps take now for ages to appear on the screen.

My question is: since I am supposed to "raise loopback device" I assume that something lowered the "Loopback device" in the first place--what could it have been? Wouldn't playing with it "raise loopback device" back, perchance?

What kde package should I purge and then reinstall to achieve a normal state of kde? (There are just too many kde packages I have installed to find out by "trial and error").

Thank you, Mr. Jan Hearthstone.

Do you need help?
