Mandriva crash kded on root

Posted: 11-16-2005, 03:55 AM
Hi,

I have a Mandriva 2006 system.

Almost every time I log as root, I get crash message after crash
message:
"The application KDE Daemon (kded) crashed and caused the signal 8
(SIGFPE). etc."
The backtrace is down here.

I saw something about Kat in there, I used the trick
touch ~/.mdv-no_kat
to disable Kat but it didnt make any difference (and I still see that
KatIndexerManager call in the backtrace ...).

Anybody has any ideas?

Thanks,Don

Bring up a terminal, su to root, and type "rpm -e kat".

When its done, shutdown and restart. Kat will definitely be gone.

I'm running with 3 users on my MDV-box and only one (not root!) had the
problem you described. (Perhaps root has the same problem, but root
never logs in on my system.) At some point one could only sit and watch
the popups of kded fill the screen. Keyboard nor mouse showed any sign
of life.

After a hard reset I did a touch ~/.mdv-no_kat for this user, but it
made no difference at all.

Then I deleted ~/.kde/share/apps/kat/db.kat and edited
~/.kde/share/config/katrc. I changed firststart=false to
firststart=true.

After that: no complaints.

Kat is a bit of a pain sometimes, but when it works it's great. Some
people advice to uninstall it. I don't.

When the problem keeps reapearing... urpme is your friend ;-)
