CONSEQUENCES: * Can't start programs anymore! * Browser: Get "kio_http" errors while surfing the web; pictures aren't displayed (I get the broken-image icon). * File Manager: When I double-click on documents (pictures, textfiles) they aren't displayed. * KMail: POP-Errors. * Lots of kdeinit: kio_http and kdeinit: kio_file processes have to be killed by hand. HUH? Visit the URL and have a look at some screenshots WHAT I HAVE ALREADY TRIED: Here is what I have already tried. 1) Emerged KDE 3.1.5. Same problem here... 2) The problem in http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=15593 was solved by adding KDEDIRS=/usr/kde/3.1 to /etc/env.d/49kdelibs-3.1 However, on my system /etc/env.d/49kdelibs-3.1 didn't existis, so * I first tried to add the line to an other kde-file in /etc/env.d, but it didn't solve the problem, so * I just created the /etc/env.d/49kdelibs-3.1 and added the requested line. In both cases, I got the same (expected) result: $ echo $KDEDIRS /usr/kde/3.1 But the weird "freezes" (actually the system is not freezing nor crashing...it just behaves crazy) were still there. 3) I already recompiled kdelibs, kdebase and qt in several various orders (kdelibs/kdebase/qt, kdebase/kdelibs/qt, qt/kdelibs/kdebase, and so on...) 4) rm ~/.kde* -rf and everything in /tmp which was related to KDE. HOW IS THE ERROR REPORTED? The errors are reported in three ways: 1. The errors are reported directly in (for example) Konqueror while surfing the web. 2. You get a popup message like "Could not start process Unable to create io-slave: klauncher said: Error loading 'kio_http'. 3. When you try to start a program (clicking on an icon or try to start with ALT-F2), nothing happens. "SOLUTION": Have always a Konsole open (or switch to another terminal) and kill the Processes by hand with $ kill -15 <id> Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: There are several ways to reproduce the problem: I. Use KDE for a while and see what happens. II. Surf to a website with a litte more Java or Java-Script (I get these errors always when I surf to my homebanking site and want to log in). III. If you don't want to wait like said in I. then try this: Start many programs in a short time (i.e. triple click on Konqueror and don't wait until it's loaded, move over to KMail and double click it, try to open four or five Konsoles, etc...) Actual Results: CONSEQUENCES: * Can't start programs anymore! * Browser: Get "kio_http" errors while surfing the web; pictures aren't displayed (I get the broken-image icon). * File Manager: When I double-click on documents (pictures, textfiles) they aren't displayed. * KMail: POP-Errors. * Lots of kdeinit: kio_http and kdeinit: kio_file processes have to be killed by hand. Expected Results: * Run programs * Kill (quit) kio_<slave> processes after a while? cat /proc/cpuinfo processor : 0 vendor_id : GenuineIntel cpu family : 15 model : 2 model name : Intel(R) Pentium(R) 4 CPU 2.66GHz stepping : 7 cpu MHz : 2672.778 cache size : 512 KB fdiv_bug : no hlt_bug : no f00f_bug : no coma_bug : no fpu : yes fpu_exception : yes cpuid level : 2 wp : yes flags : fpu vme de pse tsc msr pae mce cx8 apic sep mtrr pge mca cmov pat pse36 clflush dts acpi mmx fxsr sse sse2 ss ht tm bogomips : 5334.63 -------------------------------------------------- emerge info Portage 2.0.50-r1 (default-x86-1.4, gcc-3.2.3, glibc-2.3.2-r9, 2.4.20-xfs-r4) ================================================================= System uname: 2.4.20-xfs-r4 i686 Intel(R) Pentium(R) 4 CPU 2.66GHz Gentoo Base System version 1.4.3.10 Autoconf: sys-devel/autoconf-2.58 Automake: sys-devel/automake-1.7.7 ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="x86" AUTOCLEAN="yes" CFLAGS="-Os -march=pentium4 -msse -msse2 -mmmx -mfpmath=sse -fomit-frame-pointer -pipe" CHOST="i686-pc-linux-gnu" COMPILER="gcc3" CONFIG_PROTECT="/etc /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xkb /usr/kde/2/share/config /usr/kde/3.1/share/config /usr/kde/3/share/config /usr/lib/mozilla/defaults/pref /usr/share/config /usr/share/texmf/tex/generic/config/ /usr/share/texmf/tex/platex/config/ /var/qmail/control" CONFIG_PROTECT_MASK="/etc/gconf /etc/env.d" CXXFLAGS="-Os -march=pentium4 -msse -msse2 -mmmx -mfpmath=sse -fomit-frame-pointer -pipe" DISTDIR="/usr/portage/distfiles" FEATURES="autoaddcvs ccache sandbox" GENTOO_MIRRORS="http://gentoo.oregonstate.edu http://distro.ibiblio.org/pub/Linux/distributions/gentoo" MAKEOPTS="-j2" PKGDIR="/usr/portage/packages" PORTAGE_TMPDIR="/var/tmp" PORTDIR="/usr/portage" PORTDIR_OVERLAY="" SYNC="rsync://rsync.gentoo.org/gentoo-portage" USE="3dfx X Xaw3d aalib acpi alsa apache2 apm arts atlas avi berkdb bidi bonobo cdr crypt cscope cups curl dga directfb dvb dvd dvdr emacs emacs-w3 encode esd evo fam fastcgi fbcon flash foomaticdb freetds gb gd gdbm ggi gif gnome gphoto2 gpm gps gstreamer gtk gtk2 gtkhtml guile imagemagick imap imlib innodb jack java joystick jpeg kde lcms ldap leim libg++ libgda libwww linguas_de linguas_el linguas_en_GB lirc mad maildir mbox mcal mikmod mmx motif mozilla mpeg mpi mule mysql nas ncurses nls odbc oggvorbis opengl oss pam pda pdflib perl plotutils png pnp postgres ppds python qt quicktime readline ruby samba sasl scanner sdl slang slp snmp spell sqlite sse ssl svga tcltk tcpd tetex tiff truetype unicode usb videos wmf wxwindows x86 xface xml xml2 xmms xosd xv zlib" -------------------------------------------------- cat ~/.xsession-errors startkde: Starting up...

Here's a dumb question: After you emerged KDE, did you run "env-update"? I have KDE installed on over 20 boxes doing nothing more than the typical emerge scenario and have never once had any problem like this.
Note that i'm not trying to downplay this problem, just point out that there's got to be something obvious that we're missing here that's causing this problem.
Basically, I never ran "env-update", because I thought that portage will do that for me, if really necessary. I have Gentoo for about a year now, reinstalled it about four of five times and I never had the urge to do this...so env-update is something I completely forgot in the past (but never got in trouble because of that). BUT, of course: I env-updated regulary since I noticed and troubleshooted the problem. Just re-emerged qt, kdelibs and kdebase yesterday (once more *sigh*) and after every emerge I did a $ env-update && source /etc/profile Tell me if you need anything more to know - for now, I just have no idea what else could matter :( Tonight, I will try to emerge the complete KDE-3.1.5 Stuff again. What would be the best order to do this? 1. QT 2. kdelibs 3. kdebase 4. <other-kde-packages>? Would this be okay? I will do an env-update and source /etc/profile after each step so I can be sure that the paths and environment variables are allright. PS: I also etc-updated my config files regulary so this shouldn't be a problem neither. PPS: Do you think it's a Gentoo related or pure KDE problem?
Could you try to log in from a console and not run kde. Then delete /tmp/ksocket-username, /tmp/kde-username Possibly even delete the X socket and mcop etc stuff.
unable to replicate this. It seems like a complete local problem, and I don't know how we can help you fix it or troubleshoot it. Sorry :(
