Public bug reported: My operating system is Kubuntu Linux 7.04 (with daily dist-upgrades).
After KDE startup my system slows down and then hungs up totally. 'ps ax' shows me hundreds of 'soffice.bin' processes in memory: < ... > 7192 ? R 0:00 /bin/sh /usr/lib/openoffice/program/soffice -nologo -nodefault -splash-pipe=5 7206 ? R 0:00 find /home/admin/.mozilla/firefox -name cert8.db 7220 ?

D 0:00 /usr/lib/openoffice/program/soffice.bin -nologo -nodefault -splash-pipe=5 ...and so on. When I am quick enough to do 'killall soffice.bin' before my system is owned by these 'soffice.bin's, I can work as usual. But the same thing can happen during my normal work and I don't know what causes such behaviour. The same thing was with Kubuntu 6.10. I have OpenOffice 2.2 installed with oooqs2-kde. KDE resumes last session on startup. 'soffice.bin' is excluded from KDE session management. ** Affects: Ubuntu Importance: Undecided Status: Unconfirmed -- Hundreds of 'soffice.bin' after startup https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/103266 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
