Could you elaborate on that? http://packages.ubuntu.com/dapper/base /ubuntu-desktop lists gamin as required. I installed a kubuntu daily dapper-live-i386.iso of last week and have gamin installed by default, showing the above bug.
I cannot tell what triggers it, I tried to reproduce but failed, it happens randomly. I have neighter KMail nor Akregator running on this system. Besides the CPU load, filling up .xsession-errors is a serious problem, mine is 114 MB right now. -- gam_server consumes lots of cpu time https://launchpad.net/bugs/36581 -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
