Quoting Bryan Maynard <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:
Yesterday I was creating a new theme and selected the "monochrome"
iconset. When
I clicked "Apply" the progress meter went from 0% to 100% - then 0%
to 100%, and
kept cycling until I pressed "Cancel".
When I pressed cancel all hell broke loose. My system became almost totally
unresponsive. All I was able to do was switch to a terminal and "shutdown -r
now". Looking back, I probably should have kill-TERMed each app
individually,
but I didn't :-( . From the .core files that showed up, it looks like
kdeinit,
kdesktop, kopete, kicker, kioexec, kmail, and kwalletmanager all crashed.
Now when I log into KDE it looks like all I have is a basic X-Windows session
(no window title bars or borders), kicker does not come up, and I
cannot get a
run command dialog up.
I've done some experimenting by logging in as root and trying to run kcontrol
under user "Bryan". When run in a terminal I get the following error:
Seesion management error: Could not open network socket
ERROR: Communication problem with kcontrol, it probably crashed
When I do the same thing for kmail I get this:
Session management error: Could not open network socket
I've attached my .xsession-errors if that helps.
Something else to add: kwin crashes now too. I've included my most recent
.xsession-errors inline thi time:
Need to see the calendar for this month? Simply type "cal". To see the
whole year, type "cal -y".
