I have looked hi and low and all over and can not find a description of the Symbolic Logon of our newest openSuSE. I think they are
#1. Read in the Kernel,......... HD icon #2. Initialize,........................ Screw Drive Wrench icon #3. Start Apache................. Globe icon #4. Setup a User Desktop.... Desktop icon #5. Start KDE...................... KDE icon -But- I'm just guessing. Anyone know where they are properly described -or- do you know yourself the proper descriptions?? Thanks, Chuck

I believe the various logon symbols do not represent much actually - other than various phases of the KDE startup procedure.
As part of this procedure, a variety of configurations need to be applied, processes started, caches rebuilt, plugins loaded and other little things. I have not been able to find a concrete definition of what each stage means.

My impression is similar to bcooksley's, the old splash screen in KDE 3.x had text as well, but it was considered misleading and thus removed.
Also note that it has nothing to do with the operating system, the kernel is loaded much earlier and daemons such are Apache are usually too.
