You have been subscribed to a public bug: Binary package hint: dolphin
Description: When hovering the mouse over a FIFO, dolphin stops responding until I kill it manually. Steps to reproduce: 1) mkfifo THEFIFO 2) open Dolphin 3) hover mouse over THEFIFO What I expected to happen: Dolphin shows some basic information about the FIFO. What happened instead: Dolphin stops responding. My Guess: It looks like Dolphin tries to open(2) the FIFO with O_RDONLY, which blocks (see strace snippet). --- Ubuntu Release: Ubuntu intrepid (development branch), 8.10 Package: dolphin, 4:4.1.0-0ubuntu2 Architecture: amd64 ** Affects: kdebase (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: Confirmed -- kde 4.1 dolphin hangs when hovering mouse over a fifo/pipe https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/bugs/261106 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kubuntu Team, which is subscribed to kdebase in ubuntu. -- kubuntu-bugs mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/kubuntu-bugs
