Also unexpected: ~ # cd /etc etc # fgrep -R 131072 * 2> /dev/null apache2/modules.d/10_mod_mem_cache.conf:MCacheSize 131072 sane.d/sharp.conf:option buffersize 131072 sysctl.d/97-kde-baloo-filewatch-inotify.conf:fs.inotify.max_user_watches = 131072 I have logged out and back in, to check for the effects on that window asking for root password. It did show up again, and now the file 97-kde-baloo-filewatch-inotify.conf has been changed. Going to try again, after removing 97-kde-nepomuk-filewatch-inotify.conf. Back soon...
