What causes this recurring nonsense? Am I missing something? These changes are all meaningless AFAICT.

I don't get the kdmrc noise, the only recurring nonsense I see is:

###!!! [Parent][DispatchAsyncMessage] Error: PClientManager::Msg_ExpectFutureClientSource Processing error: message was deserialized, but the handler returned false (indicating failure)

IPDL protocol error: Handler returned error code!

I haven't looked into it yet, in fact I've never seen it before, so I'm not sure what the culprit is. .xsession-errors grows to about 24k over 24 hours or so.

My kdmrc is:
