Ever since I installed opensuse 11.2, I had this problem and only after months did I find a solution. There are 2 ways to detect the problem: 1. I use a script that installs a local rpm using zypper to solve the dependencies. It does it by opening a konsole. But often the konsole just wouldn't open, mostly after I had done some of the same operations it would just stop opening the requested konsole. 2. When trying to open or save files or any other file browsing from within openoffice.org (at the moment ooo-build 3.2.1.3), I get a dialog saying "The protocol stopped unexpectedly" roughly translated from Dutch). I will then have empty folders not showing any content. To solve this I run this as the local user in a konsole: xhost +local: After this I can run the script that opens konsole winndows without a problem and in openoffice.org I can browse again. In openoffice.org the problem is sometimes more persistent and I have to run the same command a few times to be able to get down to the file I need.
