kded eats 100% of the CPU on first wallet access
Hi, I've just upgraded my SUSE Linux from 9.3 to 10.1 x86_64, and have also updated KDE to 3.5.4, including kdelibs3 3.5.4-88.1. On logging in, the first time konqueror wants to open a KDE Wallet, a dialog box pops up asking for the wallet to be opened. Immediately after this, kded takes up all available CPU, possibly in an infinite busy loop. This looks like this bug (again ?!) http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=64671 The fix to bug 64671 was in qt, so I tried downgrading qt3 from 3.3.6 to 3.3.5-58.3. This made no difference. The workaround is to kill kded, but then kwallet does not work. Should I file a bug on Novell bugzilla? Best, Paul Leopardi

The problem seems to be related to powersaved. I had removed S09powersaved and K13powersaved from /etc/init.d/rc5.d (and rc2.d and rc3.d) because the boot sequence was hanging as soon as powersaved started to switch CPU frequencies. It looks like kded depends in some way on powersaved. I put S09powersaved and K13powersaved back into /etc/init.d/rc5.d but changed /etc/sysconfig/powersave/cpufreq to have CPUFREQ_ENABLED="no" and switched to runlevel 3 then runlevel 5. It looks at the moment like kded and kwallet are working. At least, so far I haven't seen the 100% CPU problem again. Now, all I need to do is understand why powersaved can't change the CPU frequency without freezing. Best, Paul
