Ha, the problem is back, dolphins everywhere. The problem seems to be, |
17 |
for me at least, that when I close Dolphin after doing a bit of |
18 |
file/folder stuff that the GUI shuts down but some zombie part remains. |
19 |
Just now, when I fired the machine up, I had three instances of Dolphin |
20 |
running. I closed all three, little red button top right hand corner and |
21 |
did a: |
22 |
|
23 |
ps -A | grep dolphin | wc -l |
24 |
|
25 |
Sure enough 3 zombies. Open Dolphin, do some "stuff", close Dolphin, do |
26 |
the "ps" command above and I' ve now got 4 zombies. Do this a couple of |
27 |
more times and I now have 8 - 9 zombies. |
28 |
|
29 |
Clean out ~/.config/session, ie it's now empty, and shut the machine |
30 |
down. Restart machine and hey presto, 8 - 9 Dolphins up and running and |
31 |
~/.config/session contains 8 - 9 Dolphin "restart config", or whatever |
32 |
they are called, files. |
33 |
|
34 |
I think it is time to head over to some KDE forum and ask questions there. |
