I can't recall what exact step could be the cause of this, so bugtracking
won't be possible, I'm afraid. But I will let ou know about this anyway.
Maybe someone is interested:
KDE 3.3.1 on SuSE 8.2 has been running nicely up to yesterday, with occasional
problems here and there. Then I installed OpenOffice 1.9.62 and replaced
OpenOffice 1.1.2 with 1.1.3, after which I noticed that 1.1.2 was still being
listed in KDE Menu, alongside with 1.9.62 but no sign of 1.1.3 there. I tried
to modify the Menu with KDE Menu Editor but all changes I made - and saved -
had no effect. Searched for help in the KDE-Archives where someone actually
described the same problem, being answered to
delete /home/username/.config/menu/applications-kmenuedit.menu, which is the
only file there. What I did was renaming the file there, and then restarted
KDE by rebooting. When the trouble began.
I was indeed able to modify KDE Menu. I noticed, however, that a new
applications-kmenuedit.menu file hasn't been created yet. And some other
strange behaviour started, like Konqueror crashing on start, or when
restarted, sometime later. Or all mails in KMail Inbox are now empty, still
listed as "No Subject - Unknown Sender - Unknown Date". And Openoffice 1.1.3
can't open files, saying they are corrupt. These things seem to appear one by
one. Something that was functioning the moment before is now crashing down.
I am not sure whether OpenOffice is to blame. There were other problems before
like when having installed and started KBear, its icon just brought chaos to
the KDE Panel. KBear wouldn't run anyway, and exiting KBear restored the
Panel order again.
Hm. I don't know whether I can expect help on this, but maybe you have some
opinion on this. Thanks,
Guido
