Hi,
I originally posted this on a KDE list but the only response I got was that someone else had duplicated the problem. He was also running 9.2 Pro so I thought maybe it's a SuSE thing....
Here's the problem. When I exit Knode the window goes away and all appears normal. However there is still a Knode process running so the next time I try to read news the program won't start. I have to find the process and kill it and then, of course, all is well again.
It's SuSE 9.2 Pro, KDE 3.3.0, Knode 0.8.0 on a P4.
Ideas on what's wrong? Or even how to further diagnose this? -- Frank Holt

Frank, When you say "quit" it, how do you mean. If you are just closing the window with the close gadget in the upper right corner, then you are not quiting the program. Most KDE programs don't quit like that anymore. You must go to the menu to select quit or use ctrl-q to close it down.
Not sure why things are setup that way, but if you check you'll see many are like that. Not sure if you can change that in your knode settings or if there is any need, because ctrl-q works just as easily.
If you are quiting the program correctly, then it may be that an extra process is starting up. You aren't double clicking on the icon are you? You can always check for the process with ctrl-esc which brings up ksysguard to show all your running processes.

I've quit both ways but there is no difference. There is only one process running and no double clicking involved.
