I will definitively upgrade to a newest SuSE as soon as possible but now a have this server on a remote location, running GUI server app, so it would be very nice to restart that VNC somehow remotelly and without rebooting a whole server.
Some silly thinking: what about killing only that socket? Or maybe starting a krfb on different port?
I found that it would not go away because of the crashhandler function, and the parent of that I believe was kded, so unless you wanted to possibly mess up the desktop you were stuck. I found no option to starting krfb on a different port, otherwise I would have tried that, as it seemed to be faster than x11vnc. But, I have had good luck with x11vnc, and I can just ssh in and start it up when I need to, then when I exit it goes away. Or if you desire you can leave it running. Nice thing about it is that it will startup on another port if the default is busy.
Michael, this sounds interesting! Can be x11vnc installed without restarting X and KDE and can it attach to currently running KDE screen? Janko
