The X server and applications (2x konsole, emacs, ksysguard) were still running, but the K menu, dashboard and window decorations had vanished, and window manager functionality was unavailable. Running ps from an ssh connection confirmed that of the processes that should normally be running, kdeinit and all processes labelled "[kdeinit]" were missing. No non-X processes are affected. The syslog contains no hint of anything wrong. If I kill the X server with alt/ctrl/Bksp and log in to a new KDE session, all is well again. This has never happened with mainline or previous -mm kernels, so I'm led to believe that it is tied to some change in 2.6.21-rc3-mm2. Unfortunately the effect is not easily reproduced. So far it only happened when I left the machine running logged in but idle, sometimes after a few hours, but sometimes not even after two days. So bisecting appears impractical. I'll try 2.6.21-rc4-mm1 next. Ideas? --=20 Tilman Schmidt E-Mail: tilman@imap.cc Bonn, Germany Diese Nachricht besteht zu 100% aus wiederverwerteten Bits.
