William you dont need to go to the above trouble to recreate.
1. Open Kcontrol>Sound and Multimedia>System notifications>Apply tick box to
include ALL applications> Turn on Message Windows AND Passive Windows and
Apply.
2. Next step is to force a system error message, like trying to download pop3
email and before its finished hit receive email again to elicit an error
response or 'Message Window' If you do not correct an error window message, the
'Passive Window Message will continue to be generated until the system has no
RAM resources left.
Its the continual generation of the 'Passive Messages' that are constantly
issued with the title
"Condition xxxxx Demand your Attention"
This bug is really a KDE Kcontrol issue and may need re-classification.
You dont have to use the above POP3 process to illicit an error, and
application that issues a warning message which is NOT attended to will invoke
Passive Messages ever nnn seconds.
The other issue is that Passive Window Messages are sent to the back of the
current application screen, and never bought to focus - This is how the use can
get caught in not seeing was is going on by mass 'Passive Window' production.
Because we selected"All Applications" in the system notify kcontrol panel you
get just that - Warning messages followed by passive window demand you attend
to message window first.
