The problem is the KDE session management. KDE (here 3.5.0) does not always wait for all applications to correctly shut down, when one logs out. This is somehow a known problem, I think. This way the lockfile almost always stays. This also produces some minor problems with Kontact (Kmail / Kaddressbook). Arne -- [--- PGP key FD05BED7 --- http://www.root42.de/ ---]
