[opensuse] 11.0 - Why is a knotify crash drkonqi window appearing when .... I'm in GNOME?
Guys, Something is fubar with kde4, it seems to have possessed my box. I'm happily working along in gnome, and suddenly drkonqi appears because of a knotify crash. WTF? knotify? That shouldn't even be running in gnome. Next, in gedit, I click on the help button and the kde4 help appears with the error that it can't find the subject 'blah blah blah'. No shit, I doubt very seriously the yelp information has been indexed in khelpcenter. What is going on here? I have a fresh configuration for both gnome and kde due to having wiped ~/{.kde4,.gconf,.gconfd,.config,etc...} to force a complete rebuild of the default configs. Where should I look to try and undo the kde4 hooks that have invaded gnome? What additional information can I provide? Thanks. -- David C. Rankin, J.D.,P.E.

Let me re-ask the question in a different way in hope of stimulating some discussion which might start me off in the right direction.

You have some KDE app running which "invoked" those. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

Ok, I get that part, but something is "kidnapping" the message generated by pushing the 'help' button in any gnome app and calling khelpcenter -- which is the strange part. Looking at the running processes, the only kde related apps I see are: 18339 ? Ss 0:00 kdeinit4: kdeinit4 Running... 18340 ? S 0:00 \_ kdeinit4: klauncher [kdeinit] --fd=8 18354 ? S 0:00 \_ kdeinit4: kio_file [kdeinit] file local:/tmp/ksocket-david/klauncherT18340.slave-socket local:/tmp/ksocket-david/showfotoH18325.slave-socket 18342 ? S 0:01 kdeinit4: kded4 [kdeinit] full list from 'ps axf' here: http://www.3111skyline.com/download/dt/gnome/running-apps.txt I have no idea why the .../showfotoH18325.slave-socket is shown as something that is active. I never use showfoto, so why the open socket? Regardless of what individual kde4 apps is called, it should never take over or hijack commands from regular gnome apps -- that's a bug. In order to track it down a bit further, what should I look for? I have kde4 4.4.3-157.3 installed. Any ideas? -- David C. Rankin, J.D.,P.E.
