I have rebooted a number of times (it's a laptop), always in xdm/fluxbox, but |
| 13 |
my Konqueror menus/kcontrol work fine now. I do not have kdeinit in the |
| 14 |
fluxbox startup file. Once I have booted up I will typically run {kgpg && |
| 15 |
kmail} to check my mail and occasionally launch konqueror with {kfmclient |
| 16 |
openProfile webbrowsing}. By that stage kdeinit will be running (when things |
| 17 |
are normal): |

When the 'lost menus' problem is there kfmclient will not run and konqueror |
| 32 |
will fail to launch. Last time the menus were gone I realised that this was |
| 33 |
the case when I clicked on a link to open an attachment from within kmail - |
| 34 |
the save as/open with popup was void of any applications. Unfortunately, I |
| 35 |
did not check at that time if kdeinit was running, but I would assume that it |
| 36 |
was otherwise would kde applications be able to run? |
