It all seemed to work fine yesterday evening after the system update, but today the problem returned: I too have the tiny suseplugger window in the upper left corner, completely white (no pci-card image inside). If I log in and out of gnome maybe next time it does not hang, but it will stay in the desktop. Damn, I don't understand why this happens with such randomness.
I just went to the gnome control center, current session properties, and removed both susepluger and susewatcher; I don't know what will happen when I log in again. [...] Dunno... it started, then suddenly died before session restore was complete. There are strange things in gnome... it even calls kdesu to run Yast!
Carlos, just out of curiosity which motherboard do you have? Do you have any filesystems in /etc/fstab that is not available at boot time (e.g. an external drive)? I don't see any other reason why suseplugger would not start correctly.
Well, it lists my ZIP drive (parallel port), but it is not even connected to this computer now.
I have tried to tell it not to start (by clicking the appropriate button when I tell it to QUIT, by selecting the option in its configuration panel and also by putting the Autostart=false parameter in the suseplugger rc file): no way, it will fire up again at next log in gnome.
I can not click any button, none shows. The window is empty.
I start to not like that little program.
I never did. -- Cheers, Carlos Robinson
