I guess you have unwittingly installed a different libqt4 on top of incompatible libkdecore4 packages.

The remedy is to make your repos sane and update. If you can't figure it out yourself, attach

* zypper lr -d * rpm -qi libqt4 * rpm -qi libkdecore4

I think my repositories are consistent but would appreciate any advice. Apologies for the line wrapping...

The source of the disjoint isn't obvious, but the problem is definitely your libqt4 version not being that one that built your libkdecore4 version. Do a "zypper dup --from KDE_Release_45" and look for the libqt4 version change.

Tejas, I appreciate the help. I did what you suggest not long ago when I changed from KDE4.4 to KDE4.5, but I've tried it once again and there is no proposed change to libqt4. I'll include the ouput below (which was complicated by the fact the the packman repo wouldn't refresh). As a santy check I went to the KDE_Release_45 repo with a web browser and the libqt4 version shown there is libqt4-4.6.3-8.1.x86_64.rpm, which is what I believe I currently have installed.

There is a bugzilla open about this https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=639071

I'm using KDE45 from the KDE:Release repo and firefox from the Mozilla repo. I'm not sure where the inconsistency is coming from.

See the "firefox doesn't start" thread from July on this list. We didn't get a satisfactory conclusion there yet, but I don't think it's related to KDE 4.5 since the reporter was using 4.4.4 then.

I'll have another look, thanks.

Can you see if disabling plugins helps here? If not I'll have another look at it next week.

I've disabled everything (plugins, extensions) I can think of. I've even tried starting with the -safe-mode option. Firefox starts fine, but the message is still there whenever firefox shuts down. I'm not sure if this is actually causing any problems, but I know that ocaasionally firefox won't start for me either, and sometimes it behaves strangely (the kde file picker dialog doesn't always seem to work within firefox for example). I can't help think this current problem is related somehow.

Will, It seems that maybe libproxy1-config-kde4 is the cause? (see information below). I uninstalled that package in YaST (there seemed to be no dependency issues) and now firefox seems to behave normally. It appears to start reliably (although that problem was always intermittent so I can't say for sure at this point). At least the error message goes away when closing normally. I also notice that this package does not exist in the KDE45 Release repo, only in the OSS one, so it seems likely to be the problem.

I guess you have unwittingly installed a different libqt4 on top of incompatible libkdecore4 packages.

The remedy is to make your repos sane and update. If you can't figure it out yourself, attach

Hmm, Will,

This might be the same issue I am seeing after this mornings updates on 11.3 i586. Running k3, if I start firefox my box hardlocks. Have to power-off to recover - no ctrl+alt+anything, no ssh in - it's locked tighter than a drum. If i unplug the usb mouse and plug it back in -- it stays dead.

I have nothing but sane repos on this box. Are these the right versions?

I think so but I can't tell because you omitted the -d part of the zypper command and the Distribution part of the libkdecore4 rpm information. I don't think KDE4 and Qt libraries can have much influence on Firefox on KDE 3 hard locking your box. To exclude that possibility, uninstall the KDE 4 firefox integration: mozilla-xulrunner191-kde4. It is probably something else related to the update, did it include a kernel update? Will
