Hello:
This problem is very strange. It started from one minute to the other. I use openSUSE 13.1 with KDE3. This works OK.
Now when I right click a pdf file either in konqueror file manager window or in krusader the context menu is not shown and the application (konqueror or krusader) freezes and "top" command shows 99-100% CPU use for the application. If I double click to a pdf file it's opened by the associated program (adobe reader) normally. If I right click to other file types the context menu opens as normal. That is the the problem only occurs when pdf files are right clicked. How could I trace this?
I've already reinstalled kdebase3 and kdelibs3 packages but it didn't help.
Thanks,

Sounds like the list of mime/file types buried in the kde settings got screwed up or corrupted. Unfortunately, KDE3 is so old, I don't have any machines still running that, so you will have to dig through the settings, both in the KDE settings panels and Kong, to find out where this is.
Try logging in with another user account, because some of these are account specific, and you might be able to pinpoint the error by checking out their configurations.
Thanks. I tried other user profiles and those profiles also had the problem. Next I deleted all packages that are for viewing pdfs: acroread, kpdf etc. This did not solve the problem. Then in the kde control center where file associations can be set I removed all programs that were associated with pdf files. After this right cliking to pdf files did not cause freezing anymore. Then I reinstalled pdf viewers and associated them again to pdf files. Now right clicking works normal, as before the problem. I still have to check what is the case in other profiles. What I don't understand: file associations are user profile based. Why other profiles showed the problem if I had something bad with the associations.
