The window is empty, does not even redraw its gray emptiness (if I click the window menu (minimize, maximize, etc) it stays there). If I tell it to close clicking the "X" at the right-top corner, it doesn't, till gnome forces quit it.
My 9.3 system is fully updated.
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. 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. At warm reboot if I don't plug in my USB DVDRW (which, btw, is listed in /etc/fstab, and maybe that's my mistake) then suseplugger hangs, even though I configure its rc file to ignore this device.
I can "kill -9" process 8732, and both suseplugger and susewatcher dies. Good! Now, I don't want them to ever start again. How? I'm using gnome, I don't want kde there. I don't want those automatisms, thankyou.
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 start to not like that little program. Cheers, Luca.
