and this files

/var/tmp/kdecache-"xxx"/kpc/kde-icon-cache.index
/var/tmp/kdecache-"xxx"/kpc/plasma_theme_openSUSEdefault.data
/var/tmp/kdecache-"xxx"/kpc/plasma_theme_openSUSEdefault.index

all with error: has tail _and_ normal blocks

I found nothing in Bugzilla or in the Lists ?

I think it's coming from preload, it tries to stat everything under the sun

If you boot with the kernel parameter "nopreload" you won't see the messages
(at least I don't on my machine) - but the messages are harmless, so leaving
things as they are won't hurt you. They only appear on boot when preload runs,
not later.

Someone should probably add a > /dev/null to the boot.startpreload script
though
