Dear Linuxers,
I've a quite frustrating problem, yesterday trying to send a file via
Skype this crashed and my linux-box became unresponsive. After
rebooting KDE started really very slowly (it is taking more or less 20
minutes to be fully loaded and responsive) and this happens at every
reboot (and since this is a laptop it is quite frequent). And also once
started many applications (e.g., korganizer, klipper) are still
unresponsive and theirs menu take long time to appear.
I got the same problem with the same causes one year ago and at that
time I have solved reinstalling all the whole system but at the time was
a quite new installation and it was inexpensive to do that but now I'd
prefer to avoid. I have already tried to remove the cache and lock files
but it didn't work.
Any idea about how to solve the issue? If you address me I can provide
log files as well.
My system is FC13 up to date with KDE 4.5.3, nvidia card and kernel
2.6.34.7-63. I can provide any piece of log if you address me to what to
look for. I know it is quite old but it works for my needs and it took
so long to be fine tuned that I don't like the idea to start again.
Try renaming your ~/.kde directory to ~/.kde-bkup:
$ cd ~
$ mv .kde .kde-bkup
and log in again. This should essentially start your KDE session from
scratch. You'll lose any settings you have and will have to reset them
(or steal them from the ~/.kde-bkup directory--which is why I suggested
the rename rather than deletion).
thanks for the suggestion, this didn't really do the trick since I had
to switch to a new user but has been usefull to see what was wrong and
akonadi and nepomuk was the responsible of the strange behavior
