Hi all, I've mentioned this before, but it hasn't fixed itself with the past few update rounds, so I thought I'd mention it again.
Basically all that is happening is that kdesktop is failing to launch after I login though KDM (with LDAP authentication). I can run kdesktop from the console afterwards, and it's fine other than a "mcop warning: user defined signal handler found for SIG_PIPE, overriding" error. My .xsession-errors file contains: startkde: Starting up... kbuildsycoca running... DCOP Cleaning up dead connections. mcop warning: user defined signal handler found for SIG_PIPE, overriding could not get user name from user id DCOP aborting call from 'anonymous-2438' to 'knotify' ERROR: Communication problem with knotify, it probably crashed. mcop warning: user defined signal handler found for SIG_PIPE, overriding QFont::setPointSize: Point size <= 0 (-3) could not get user name from user id DCOP aborting call from 'anonymous-2443' to 'knotify' ERROR: Communication problem with knotify, it probably crashed. mcop warning: user defined signal handler found for SIG_PIPE, overriding could not get user name from user id DCOP aborting call from 'anonymous-2446' to 'knotify' ERROR: Communication problem with knotify, it probably crashed. mcop warning: user defined signal handler found for SIG_PIPE, overriding could not get user name from user id DCOP aborting (delayed) call from 'anonymous-2448' to 'kdesktop' ERROR: Communication problem with kdesktop, it probably crashed. I'm also getting this error in my syslog: .. .. .. Sep 4 17:06:13 mekon kdesktop: nss_ldap: reconnecting to LDAP server...
