the splash screen you mean? We'll need more information on how to reproduce this; I haven't seen it or seen other reports of it.
Yes, the splash screen gets stuck. Especially, on the background wallpaper action. Notes: This was running over an NFS mounted home directory. I've since removed all my gnome related configuration and the new defaults work w/o these problems.
I have the same problem here. Can pedrum please send in his hardware list? Swapped EVERYTHING - duplicated on second system. I can run "swapdesktop kde" and kde starts and runs fine. This is a hard crash - couldn't get in via keyboard - even tried logging in via the network and ssh. I found no clues in the logs. Only other deal is I deselected eveloution from the install. One clue is at the end of the install I saw an error about copying a texture that was gnome related?? (went by to quickly to see.) I have reverified the media. I think this is hardware specific or more would be seeing it. I also tried a swapping the video card to a S3 and had the same problem.
