Ever since I upgraded to the new version of QT3 I have been unable to start konqueror from the home directory icon in KDE. Clicking the 'web browser' icon next to it works and can then go to the home directory by clicking the icon in konqueror. It just segfaults every time trying the 'home directory' icon from the panel.
I've found that if I run the command kfmclient openProfile filemanagement in a terminal the reason for the segfaults is given as 'Mutex destroy failure: Device or Resource Busy' I'm just trying to re-emerge qt/ kdelibs and kdebase to see if that does anything
Re-emergeing didn't work...but deleteing the ~/.kde and ~/.kde3 directories did...but that is a bit drastic!
Well, there's not much I can do about it. You might have deleted your .kde3 file by file (the relevant ones anyway) and seen just what caused the problem. Anyway, it's gone so that's that.
