On openSUSE 10.2 (KDE-3.5.5) and 10.3 Alpha (KDE-3.5.6), I've
encountered a problem with vanilla 2.6.21-rc1 up to 2.6.21-rc2-git1. KDE
is setup not to require a password to unlock the screen, but it asks for
password. When given the password, it unlocks, but kwin, kicker,
klauncher and may be other kdeinit stuff have died with no errors
reported. Doing straces do not show errors.
If I start those 3 from the command line, everything comes back except
the desktop icons and the next lock will repeat the same sequence.
The workaround I've found is to move kdesktop_lock out of /opt/kde3/bin,
everything comes back intact when a key is pressed or the mouse is moved
after the screen is blanked.

If the kernel is affecting this, you should get OOM errors in /var/log/messages

Greetings, Stephan


Nothing that says that kdeinit stuff has died, no out-of-memory errors either. 2.6.2-rc2-git2 kernel building on a P-II/333/96M/2M video with Kubuntu-6.10, shall see if I get the same on it.
Regards
Sid.
