klipper hangs and causes keyboard to be not pressable and mouse to be not clickable (cursor moves though). Got to wait a bit to get them work. Then the kde window popups with "klipper hands" information and "yes" "no" This bug was in 3.1.x and still in 3.2.2 I think it is not related to gentoo only. Reproducible: Sometimes Steps to Reproduce: 1. Copy to clipboard 2. Clear history 3. Right-click on klipper icon on toolbar 4. Repeat if it is not hanging Actual Results: Expected Results: Portage 2.0.50-r6 (default-x86-2004.0, gcc-3.3.3, glibc-2.3.2-r9, 2.6.5-gentoo-r1) ================================================================= System uname: 2.6.5-gentoo-r1 i686 Intel(R) Pentium(R) 4 CPU 1.70GHz Gentoo Base System version 1.4.9 Autoconf: sys-devel/autoconf-2.58-r1 Automake: sys-devel/automake-1.8.3 ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="x86" AUTOCLEAN="yes" CFLAGS="-O2 -march=pentium4" CHOST="i686-pc-linux-gnu" COMPILER="gcc3" CONFIG_PROTECT="/etc /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xkb /usr/kde/2/share/config /usr/kde/3.2/share/config /usr/kde/3/share/config /usr/lib/mozilla/defaults/pref /usr/share/config /usr/share/texmf/dvipdfm/config/ /usr/share/texmf/dvips/config/ /usr/share/texmf/tex/generic/config/ /usr/share/texmf/tex/platex/config/ /usr/share/texmf/xdvi/ /var/qmail/control" CONFIG_PROTECT_MASK="/etc/gconf /etc/terminfo /etc/env.d" CXXFLAGS="-O2 -march=pentium4" DISTDIR="/usr/portage/distfiles" FEATURES="autoaddcvs buildpkg" GENTOO_MIRRORS="http://trumpetti.atm.tut.fi/gentoo/ http://ftp.linux.ee/pub/gentoo/distfiles/ http://ftp.uni-erlangen.de/pub/mirrors/gentoo http://mirrors.sec.informatik.tu-darmstadt.de/gentoo/ http://mirror.pudas.net/gentoo" MAKEOPTS="-j2" PKGDIR="/usr/portage/packages" PORTAGE_TMPDIR="/var/tmp" PORTDIR="/usr/portage" PORTDIR_OVERLAY="" SYNC="rsync://rsync.gentoo.org/gentoo-portage" USE="X Xaw3d aalib acl acpi adns alsa apache2 arts audiofile avi berkdb bonobo caps cdr crypt cscope cups curl debug encode esd evo fam fastcgi fbcon fdftk flac flash foomaticdb freetds gb gd gdbm ggi gif ginac gmp gnome gpm gstreamer gtk gtk2 gtkhtml hardened icq imagemagick imap imlib java jikes jpeg kde lcms ldap lesstif libg++ libgda libwww lpotutils mad mikmod mmx motif mozilla mpeg mpi mysql ncurses nls nocardbus oggvorbis opengl pam pdflib perl png postgres ppds python qt quicktime readline sdl slang slp speex spell sqlite sse ssl svga tcpd tetex tiff truetype unicode usb vhosts videos wmf x86 xinerama xml xml2 xmms xv zlib"
Some new info after searching in kde bugs database: http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=63832
After doing some testings my problem went away. Why? Follow that link and you will understand.
"Nice" bug. Adding the Klipper applet a few times to kicker is "nice" too, btw.. Nothing we can do about. Hopefully it gets fixed asap.
