Hi list, I upgraded kdelibs, kdeworkspace, kdeedu and networkmanagement plasmoid yesterday (except for the last one, it was just a package upgrade) and after that the kde cookies service is not working anymore (neither for konqueror nor for rekonq). System tray now has the old colorful icons, instead of the 4.6 white and minimalist ones (that's not an really an issue, it's just weird), and everytime I try to enable the networkmanagement plasmoid the whole plasma crashes and reboots without the plasmoid enabled. I've noticed more weird things in its behaviour, but I don't remember it now, so if it happens again I'll say it here. Has anybody the same problem? Does anybody know what this package upgrade was supposed to do? -- Álvaro Villalba Navarro

-- Álvaro Villalba Navarro Are you running kde-unstable? If you do, report upstream bugs. Chances are somebody already did and you can provide info on it.

if you can't find a process called "kded4" running, start it from a terminal. If you find it, kill it and try again. That should get all kde daemons running again, but will not fix whatever is triggering the problem. 2011/5/27 Álvaro Villalba Navarro :

Rebuilding ntrack with the deadloop.patch from https://bugs.launchpad.net/ntrack/+bug/755608 helps.

Álvaro, Try this: log out of your KDE session, then execute mv ~/.kde4 ~/.kde4_old from a terminal, and then log back in to KDE. Check to see if the issue persists. If the issue is gone, then your KDE configuration was previously corrupted. If this is the case, just reconfigure your system, or try restoring important subdirectories of .kde4_old into .kde4. -Kerrick Staley

You are right Kerry, I just had my kde configuration corrupted. Thanks! 2011/5/28 Kerrick Staley :

No problem. Corruption of the KDE configuration happens frequently on my system; I haven't yet bothered to find out why, though. I usually prefer Kerrick, not Kerry, by the way. -Kerrick Staley On Sun, May 29, 2011 at 4:40 AM, Álvaro Villalba Navarro < vn.alvaro@gmail.com> wrote:
